ARIANNA MAZZARESE
Arianna Mazzarese (Florence, 1990) is a violinist, author, and composer.
She began playing the violin at the age of six and as a child was admitted to the L. Cherubini Conservatory in Florence, where she brilliantly earned the ten-year diploma in Violin in 2013. She also studied Composition there. She further honed her skills as a violinist at the Fiesole School of Music with the international concert artist William Chiquito. She performed in major Italian theaters and was accepted through auditions into youth orchestras such as the National Conservatories Orchestra and the Italian Youth Orchestra. She graduated from a scientific high school with a perfect score of 100/100. In 2018, she obtained a Bachelor's degree in Physics and Astrophysics from the University of Florence.
Then she decided to dedicate herself full-time to the Golden Salt project, alongside Eleonora Loi, with whom she had been playing for over six years in private and public events throughout Italy as the duo "Violin & Electric Guitar," which later became Golden Salt. Together with Eleonora, she attended specialized courses in recording studies at Labella Studio, earning the title of Sound Technician, and pursued a course in Electronic Production, Mixing, and Mastering, deepening her knowledge of Ableton Live and electronic music production. With the acquired skills, she started producing Golden Salt's content with the intention of building an international fanbase for the Golden Salt duo from scratch, aiming to perform live for international audiences.
Arianna is also an entrepreneur, producer, and owner of the Golden Salt Store, a videomaker, and a colorist. She has produced, edited, and colored the videos of the Golden Salt duo. In her personal life, she regularly practices sports and is a martial arts instructor with a second-dan black belt in Karate.
