Agnese Toniutti is an Italian pianist specialised in contemporary and 20th Century music. She dedicates herself to the exploration and research on peculiar piano repertoire, often revolving around the concept of sound and its role in musical composition. Her work investigates the complementarity of composition and improvisation in musical creativity, both as an author and interpreter.

She met Philip Corner while studying Seventies’ art movements. Since then she has regularly played his compositions, stimulating challenges for the interpreter, in Italy, Europe and United States. In October 2023, in the occasion of Corner’s 90th birthday, she performed with the composer himself at Teatro Valli in Reggio Emilia, IT for Festival Aperto in a recital dedicated to the 70 years of his piano compositions. The following year they repeated this at Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Casa Cavazzini for Civici Musei in Udine, IT.
Some of her interpretations are published by label Neuma Records (Subtle Matters, 2021) and Sub Rosa (Fluxus&Neo Fluxus - Stolen Symphony part one 2023 and Fluxus&Neo Fluxus - Keep together part two, 2024).
