Antonio Arcieri was born in Rome, and the piano found him when he was just eight years old. From that first encounter, music became more than a discipline. It became a language. A way of feeling, expressing, and connecting with the world around him.
Over the years, his love for blues, jazz, and rock shaped his touch and imagination. He deepened his study of theory and technique under Maestro Dario Oliverio, while also exploring the art of composition and improvisation through seminars such as Chieti in Jazz with Bruno Tommaso and Roberto Spadoni. But Antonio’s musical path has never followed a straight line, it unfolds like a journey made of many voices, projects, and roles.
In 2009, he gave life to his first solo piano project, “Musica a Scrigno”, performing in clubs across Lazio and Campania. His solo work carries the warmth of a storyteller and the introspection of someone who listens as much as he plays. Alongside his solo career, Antonio moves freely between jazz ensembles, theatre, and experimental music, always guided by his deep sensitivity to sound and silence.
Since 2013, he has worked with the Etérnit Cultural Association, bringing together his musical skills and his passion for sound engineering. In 2014, he joined the band Camera not only as a musician, but also as a producer and sound designer. Their 2017 release, “TVATT – Music from the Theatrical Project” (Martelabel), was born from a long collaboration with the theatre director Luigi Morra, where Antonio’s music became part of a larger, immersive narrative.
In the years that followed, he expanded his work in theatre, composing original soundtracks for productions like “Vassilissa”, “Due Penelope Ulisse”, and “Dorothy e altri rumori”. Each piece is an intimate blend of acoustic textures and subtle electronics — music that breathes with the actors and scenes it supports.
As a keyboardist and synthesist, Antonio joined the Astral Week project, performing on stages like the Auditorium Parco della Musica and Postepay Rock in Roma. Since 2016, he’s also a core member of the electronic band Bon.Not, where production, sound design, and live performance converge into deeply immersive experiences.
His compositions have traveled far, from local stages to the Venice Biennale Teatro and projects like “Baccanti” by Leviedelfool, co-composed with Camera. Across all his work, Antonio’s language remains rooted in emotion. Whether through piano, synth, or software, he explores sound not just as music, but as presence.
His dual identity as a musician and sound engineer is more than technical. It’s spiritual. Nearly all of his works are mixed and mastered by his own hands, reflecting a need for complete, personal connection with every note. For Antonio, sound is a craft. A shelter. A mirror.
Through keys, frequencies, and silence, Antonio Arcieri invites us into a world of subtle contrasts. A world where the line between composer and listener gently disappears, and all that remains is feeling.
