José Antônio Marchezani Corciolli (born January 8, 1968, in São Paulo), known simply as Corciolli, is a Brazilian composer, instrumentalist, and producer known for his innovative use of electronic synthesizers and his compositions. He is also the founder of the record label Azul Music.
Biography[edit]
Brazilian composer, instrumentalist, and producer from São Paulo, Corciolli was born in 1968, starting his piano studies at the age of 15 with Nair Tabet, Magdalena Tagliaferro’s assistant. He then delved into popular music, studying harmony and improvisation with Cacho Souza and, later, Claudio Leal Ferreira. However, it was electronic synthesizers, with their unlimited sonic possibilities, that deepened his relationship with music and composition.
He graduated with a degree in architecture without leaving music in the background: Over the years, he played in several bands and projects, with highlights on the work developed with the Brazilian bass legend Celso Pixinga and with the rumba flamenca group Espirito Cigano. In 1993, he founded his own record label, Azul Music, and released his first album All That Binds Us, starting a successful discography, which includes more than 2M CDs sold, 400M streams and 12 “Play de Ouro” (Gold Records) certifications, awarded by the Brazilian Association of Independent Music (ABMI).
Featured in film soundtracks and participation in compilations alongside artists such as Hans Zimmer, Vangelis, The Alan Parsons Project, Sarah Brightman, Enigma and Luciano Pavarotti, his music leads the listener to evocative sound worlds, creating timeless connections between different genres and sonorities.
Music to be heard in the silent spaces of the soul.
