Franca Sacchi

Franca Sacchi

Franca Sacchi has been played on NTS in shows including Not Waving, featured first on 17 July 2017. Songs played include Danza, Mia Cara, Arpa Eolia and “Arpa Eolia (1970)”.

One of the very few female composer of early electronic music, Franca Sacchi studied at the well known RAI Studio of Fonologia in Milan in the 60s. She developed the “En-static” principle, which included improvisation, electronic music, ritual, performance, teaching and meditation. Her music focuses mainly on sound, which is treated as raw material and endlessly explored. Sacchi's free concept of duration and deep emotional feel brings her closer to Eliane Radigue and La Monte Young, especially for the long and sustained tones which are suddenly turned into pulsations and gritty sound textures. Her work was also included in the seminal Broken Music exhibition in Berlin.
