AGNOLETTO, Arienne Dorothea

Agnoletto studied in Vienna and Mainz, Germany (with Sergiu Celibidache). Since 1993, she has worked internationally as a conductor, collaborating with various orchestras and opera houses, including the Lviv Opera (Lviv, Ukraine), the Teatro Regio di Torino (Italy), the Silesian Opera (Bytom, Poland), and the Orchestra Femminile Europea ( Milan ). She is the principal conductor of the Philharmonia Gaudi Vienna and the Young Polish Philharmonic. She is the chairwoman of the Vienna-based association Art in Action and has been a member of the Austrian Composers' Association since 2001.

Her first opera, Brahman (1996) , was commissioned by the city of Kraków, Poland, and employs an avant-garde compositional technique, precisely translating the mathematical frequencies of the text into musical notation. Her children's opera Pinocchio (2001) was commissioned by the Comune di Vittorio Veneto and based on texts by the renowned Florentine poet and painter Dora Raparo Bianchi.
