Jacopo Cenni (1995) is an Italian composer, media artist and live performer. His poetics focus on the investigation of the relationship between theatrical gesture and sound art, with the adoption of an ecosystemic approach to music composition.

His relationship with technology is crucial: Cenni explodes the poetic and dramaturgical elements of his composition in several mediums, employing sound, light, and theatrical gestures.

His works have been presented in festival and venues like La Biennale di Venezia (IT), Glasgow Science Center (UK), Festival Chigiana (IT), ZiMMT (DE), Fondazione Luigi Nono (IT), XXVI CIM (IT) among others. 

His recent interests include the relationship between choreography and music, taking part in multidisciplinary projects like Festival d’Aix-en-Provence (FR) and Teatro Out Off (IT).

Alongside his work in contemporary classical and electroacoustic music, Cenni composes for contemporary theatre and designs both sound and lighting for shows seen at Musik Installationen Nürnberg (DE), Nau Ivanow (ES), Teatro Basilica Roma (IT), Teatro Verdi Milano (IT).

He is currently enrolled in a Ph.D. in New Musical Languages at the Conservatory of Cesena (IT). His project, MANDRAGORA, develops an integrated workspace for assisted music and choreography composition.
