About
Rooted in natural soundscapes and highlighting the fragility of the environment, Swiss-Catalan singer and violinist Violeta Vicci is a multi-faceted contemporary classical and electronic artist. She started playing the violin at the age of four and made her concert debut at fifteen, later moving to London to study at the Royal Academy of Music.
Violeta has released three studio albums to date. Her debut album AUTOVIA, produced by the legendary Martin Glover‘Youth’, bridges the gap between the acoustic and electronic worlds. Her second solo album, Mirror Images, has been hailed by The Strad as “A remarkable concept album”, and her third album, Cavaglia, translates the pristine Swiss valley and its surrounding lakes and glaciers into music.
In 2020, Violeta launched “Live Music in Nature”, a series of live-streamed concerts performed in breathtaking natural locations, blending strings, voice, and effect pedals to create an immersive soundtrack to nature. In 2025, the concept evolved into Forest Music, a collaboration with the acclaimed film composer Ben Morales Frost, inspired by the ancient Japanese practice of 'forest bathing'. Taking inspiration from nature once again, the album was created as an imagined journey into the greenness of the forest, escaping from the hustle and bustle of the city.
Violeta’s stage presence is equally impressive. She has performed at prestigious venues such as the Royal Albert Halland Paris Philharmonic, and major festivals like British Summer Time, SXSW and Glastonbury. She opened for the Orb’s extensive UK tour, Marconi Union and System7 and collaborated with artists like Thom Yorke, Sigur Rós, elbow, Clint Mansell, Fontaines DC, Jonny Greenwood and Bat For Lashes. Her music has also received national and international radio play on BBC Radio3, BBC6Music, RAI3, RNE, KEXP, Dublab and Radio Hanover.
Upcoming projects include collaborations with pianists Bruno Bavota and Belle Chen, with whom she recently performed at Kings Place, London.

“Powerful” Sarah Mohr-Pietsch, BBC Radio 3
“A remarkable concept album by a unique and imaginative solo performer. Vicci is an artist of ideas with all the gifts to fulfil them” Peter Quantrill, The Strad
“Exceptional (…) This music carries a distinctive eclecticism, yet it seamlessly binds only those elements that fit together perfectly. Perhaps such connections come most naturally to someone who feels equally at home in Switzerland, the British Isles, and Spain; who speaks seven languages; and who, defying gender stereotypes, rides a motorcycle” Anxious Music Magazine
‘Extraordinary Album’ Ecki Eckert Stieg, Radio Hanover
