Andrea Molino

Andrea Molino (1964) became known as a composer for his amazing video and musical theatre work Those who speak in a faint voice, a project about the death penalty, and the multimedia musical-theatre productions Credo and Winners.

In 1996 and 1997 he was musical director of the Pocket Opera Company in Nuremberg, and from 2000 to 2006 was artistic director of the music department of Fabrica. During the 2007-2008 season he was a guest artist at Le Fresnoy in Lille (France). In 2009 he was appointed artistic director of the World Venice Forum, where he was curator for the The Garden of Forking Paths festival and conducted his own multimedia concert Of Flowers and Flames, to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the disaster in Bhopal, India.

His most recent project, Three Mile Island, about the nuclear accident in Pennsylvania in 1979, was created at the ZKM in Karlsruhe in March 2012. It was performed by the Neue Vocalsolisten Stuttgart and the Klangforum Wien. The project received the Music Theatre Now Award in 2013.
