Marianna Filippi

Marianna Filippi is a professional composer and orchestrator based in Denmark, with a Master's Degree from the Royal Danish Academy of Music.

 As a composer, the core of her musical style is highly versatile, and what she strives to convey in her pieces are themes of environmental conservation, nature, and animals. Each of her works has a story-like narrative, most often inspired by visual art or a natural concept; for instance, her piece for symphony orchestra, Jordens Sjæl, was a versatile celebration of the majesty of the Earth, featuring the word “Earth” in seventeen different languages that are sung by the orchestral musicians. 

She prefers to compose intuitively, inventing a storyline structure depending on the chosen instrumentation and concept, and then uses piano improvisation to form her initial melodic and harmonic material, from which the pieces evolve like living beings.
