Floraleda Sacchi

Floraleda Sacchi (June 14, 1978) is an Italian harpist, composer and musicologist born in Como.

A book by her, entitled Elias Parish Alvars, Life, Music, Documents published in 1999, received the Harpa Award (Prague 1999).

She has edited 18th and 19th century harp music, bringing to the public several forgotten composers (such as Sophia Dussek or Alphonse Hasselmans).

She is the author of shows uniting music and acting, including Mystery Tales (for actor, harp and string quartet, dedicated to the relationship among fantasy, horror literature and music) and Travel to the Moon (for actor, harp and planetarium - presented regularly at Milan's Planetarium) - freely inspired from Cosmicomiche by Italo Calvino.

The movie was produced by RAI TV with the title "Il sangue, la neve" (The Blood, the Snow).
