Marco Baldini (Firenze, 1986) is a composer and musician. His pieces, written mainly for acoustic instrumentation, focus on spare, minimal structures that slowly unfold to delineate harmonic spaces in which timbral richness and natural acoustic phenomena are emphasized.

Marco Baldini’s chamber music is often harmonically redolent of Baroque and Renaissance antecedents. A legacy of spacious architecture, slowly evolving patterns and stained-glass echoes are filtered through the Florentine composer’s contemporary sensibility, recollections of formative musical experiences, refreshed and energised by his own imagination.
