COSTANZA SAVARESE

“Costanza Savarese is much more talented than beautiful…” 

“Her vocality is magnetic and charismatic, and cannot be identified with any pre-existing concept. Costanza makes apparently incompatible vocal dimensions co-exist.”

“Costanza is capable of enhancing the sheer depth and exposure of raw human emotions thanks to her gifted nature and perseverance. Poetry and precision are the focal point of her work.” 

“…a vocalist of the highest level, able to pass from a spoken verse to a ductile singing emission that exceeds all genres and textures”

“… a very remarkable artist, restlessly pushing the limits of her research  (both technically within the vocal field and poetically within the visual one) and constantly wandering  different genres from contemporary to pop music.” 

“…the voice of Costanza Savarese, magnificently expressive and not lyrically set.”

Costanza Savarese is a multidisciplinary artist: vocal performer, solo guitarist, video artist, and theatrical costume and make-up designer. She has appeared as a soloist at prestigious international institutions and festivals including ARS ELECTRONICA Festival (Linz), Concertgebouw Amsterdam, Romaeuropa Festival, Presidential Concert Hall (Ankara), Palau de la Música with I Solisti dell’Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia, Festival Puccini Torre del Lago, Auditorium Parco della Musica Ennio Morricone, Maggio Musicale Fiorentino, Teatro Alighieri di Ravenna, Museo MADRE, Teatro di Roma, Casa del Jazz, Teatro Elfo Puccini, and Fondazione Haydn Stiftung, among others.

Her video art works have been presented at Modern Panic IX Exhibition (London, 2018), SESI Art Gallery (São Paulo), FILE – Electronic Language International Festival (2019, 2020, 2022), The WRONG Biennale (2019 and 2021, including exhibitions at the Centre Pompidou in Paris), ELETTRA SINCROTRONE International Research Laboratory, Lift-Off Sessions at Pinewood Studios and Raleigh Studios (London–Hollywood), the National Archaeological Museum of Naples (MANN), and NFT BIENNIAL 2023 at the Zorlu Performing Arts Center in Istanbul.

Her video art work WONDERLAND was recently screened in Times Square (New York City), while her music video SHE’S NOT YOU was presented at BIFEST 2025.

She contributes to the international arts magazine RETROSPECTIVE, edited by Glauco Della Sciucca and recently published by Hoffman Barney & Foscari Ltd, and is a member of the international collective HYBRID WAVE.

Deliberately choosing not to employ a traditionally classical vocal approach, she made her debut in Satyricon by Bruno Maderna at both the Festival Pucciniano di Torre del Lago and Fondazione Haydn Stiftung, performing the roles of Fortunata (the female protagonist) and Scintilla. She also appeared as solo vocalist in An Index of Metals by Fausto Romitelli and Paolo Pachini at the Romaeuropa Festival.

The American record label Neuma Records released William Duckworth’s Simple Songs About Sex and War, recorded by Savarese in duo with pianist Emanuele Arciuli, member of the Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia.

More recently, she starred as actress, singer, and guitarist in the feature film Circus, directed by Glauco Della Sciucca and produced by Hoffman Barney & Foscari London Ltd.

She is currently Professor of Classical Guitar and Vocal Education at AIMART – Accademia Internazionale di Musica e Arte, directed by Maestro Edda Silvestri, recipient of the Venice Silver Lion Lifetime Achievement Award.

Her artistic training was shaped under the guidance of Maestri Bruno Battisti D’Amario, Nazzareno Carusi, Massimo Lonardi, Frédéric Zigante, and Professors Eleonora Bruni and Franco Fussi.
