GINEVRA NERVI
Born in Genoa in 1994, Ginevra Nervi is an Italian composer, producer, and performer who explores the boundaries between electronic music, vocal experimentation, and research into the soundscape. Her artistic practice is grounded in the use of the human voice and in the investigation of the surrounding acoustic world.
Nervi considers listening as a form of composition: the soundscape, whether natural, urban, or digital, becomes a living source of inspiration. For her, “the instrument we are searching for is often already around us.” Through field recordings, vocal manipulation, and electronic processing, she creates immersive sonic environments that combine emotional depth with abstraction.
Her debut album, The Disorder of Appearances (2022), takes shape as a meditation on perception, presence, and transformation, intertwining fragile melodies, fragmented voice, and complex digital architectures.
Alongside her solo work, she has developed an intense activity as a composer for film and audiovisual projects, progressively establishing herself on the international scene. Her writing for images is distinguished by an immersive and layered approach, in which voice, environmental sound, and electronics interact with visual storytelling, contributing to the construction of complex emotional landscapes.
In recent years, she has composed soundtracks for films, series, and international productions, consolidating a recognizable and contemporary language. Among her most recent works are the series Love Me Love Me, distributed by Amazon, which helped expand the reach of her sonic research on a global scale; the film Idoli – Fino all’ultima corsa (Ídolos, 2026), directed by Mat Whitecross, an Italian-Spanish production; and 18 Buracos para o Paraíso (18 Holes to Paradise) by director João Nuno Pinto. In these projects, the sonic component develops as an extension of dramaturgy, through vocal textures, electronic environments, and a strong attention to timbral detail.
In 2026, she performed as a featured artist at the opening ceremony of the Milan-Cortina Winter Paralympic Games at the Arena di Verona, presenting a contemporary reinterpretation of the Italian national anthem — a performance that synthesises her research on voice, space, and the collective dimension of listening.
She is currently working on new film productions and a new solo recording project, continuing an ever-evolving artistic path in which music, image, and sonic experimentation intertwine.
In live settings, Nervi’s performances take the form of true audiovisual rituals, where real-time processed voice, electronics, and projected images interact. Her concerts blur the boundaries between live set and installation, inviting the audience into an immersive experience in which voice, environment, and technology coexist in constant transformation.
