Marcelo Conti
 Composer, Multi-instrumentist, Music Producer & Publisher
Versatile | Culturally Immersive | Emotionally Driven
Born and raised in Brazil, with over 15 years of experience as a composer and instrumentalist, I have produced more than 200 original tracks, including scores for 14 feature-length documentary films broadcast on major European TV channels. More recently, I’ve been scoring narrative fiction films — genre films produced for cinema in Brazil.
 My work bridges academic research and live performance, shaped by a deep appreciation for cultural diversity and musical depth. I create music that resonates emotionally while honoring the structural and aesthetic essence of each genre.
 My passion lies in versatility — connecting styles and traditions to craft original, meaningful music that speaks across boundaries.

  In addition to my creative work, I also operate as a music publisher, representing this catalog designed for film, TV, and other audiovisual productions.
Education & Musical Journey
Â
My musical education goes far beyond formal degrees and classroom training. While I hold a Bachelor of Music from the Brazilian Conservatory of Music (2009), majoring in Brazilian Popular Music – Strings (MPB), my deepest learning has come from years of playing and performing across diverse musical landscapes.
As a multi-instrumentalist, I have had the opportunity to perform across a wide range of musical styles — from jazz and samba to Indian and Persian classical music, Cuban rhythms, Uruguayan candombe, African traditions, European classical, and pop music. My education has been enriched through immersive study and collaboration within these diverse traditions, deepening my understanding of their cultural roots and musical languages. This blend of practical experience and cultural exchange continues to inspire my creative growth and musical exploration.
I have lived and studied in various countries, collaborating closely with musicians specialized in these rich traditions. This ongoing journey of cultural exchange and exploration fuels my passion for bridging genres and creating authentic, innovative music rooted in real-world experience rather than theory alone.
