Enrico Malatesta

Enrico Malatesta is an Italian percussionist and sound researcher, active in the fields of experimental music, sound intervention, and performance. His practice explores the relations between sound, space, and body, the vitality of materials and the morphology of surfaces, with particular attention to the percussive acts and the modes of listening.

Since 2007, Malatesta has been presenting his works touring all over Europe, Brazil, South Korea, Japan, UK, North America, and Russia, participating in festivals and special events in venues such as Pirelli Hangar Bicocca (Milan), Berghain (Berlin), and MAM (Rio de Janeiro).
