Rossana
Rossignoli

Born in Italy, Rossana Rossignoli has been Principal Clarinet of the Basel Symphony Orchestra since 2010.

In 2009 she won the Rotary Club's „Primavera“ award, being described as a „brilliant representative of the new musical generation in Italy“. 

She is a laureate of several international competitions and she has also performed on various occasions as a soloist. She played in the most renowned Theaters all around the world.

Passionate about art in general, she is a self-taught painter and transcribes the temporality of music in her paintings.

Nature, the central theme of this series of paintings, is treated in a dreamlike manner, harnessing the power of the colours to best render its luminosity. The composition is often structured around a variety of simultaneous perspectives, so that the eye embraces the widest landscape possible. The static, fixed, immutable character of the subject comes to life by means of another element: bright light, water or wind.

These works, very dense in form as well as colour, seek to express a wondrous, direct vision of the natural world that surrounds us.
