Ionone Music is an innovative music project
that transcends traditional genres, blending elements of neoclassical minimalism, ambient textures, and experimental influences. Ionone's compositions create immersive soundscapes that offer listeners a meditative and emotive auditory experience, bridging the gap between the tangible and the ethereal.
Filippo Lo Presti composer and multi-instrumentalist whose work as lonone transcends genre, weaving classical introspection, electronic experimentation, and ambient textures into a singular sonic language. Driven by a fascination with time's fluidity, his compositions act as auditory time capsules, inviting listeners to wander through eras, emotions, and imagined landscapes.

Ionone’s exploration of spirituality in music is deeply intertwined with the use of atmospheric and ambient soundscapes. His compositions often aim to evoke a sense of transcendence and introspection, creating a meditative experience for the listener. This aligns with the broader tradition of using music as a conduit for spiritual experiences.



Ionone’s tracks frequently incorporate elements that resonate with themes of nature, the cosmos, and the human spirit. For instance, the piece “Anima Unveiled” delves into the concept of the soul’s journey and awakening, using layered textures and evolving melodies to mirror the process of spiritual discovery.
The use of sound and vibration in this music is also significant. Sound has long been considered a powerful tool for spiritual growth and transformation, capable of altering consciousness and facilitating healing. Ionone’s music leverages this by creating immersive environments that encourage listeners to connect with their inner selves and the broader universe.
This approach to music can foster a sense of unity and oneness, transcending individual differences and promoting a shared spiritual experience. It’s a beautiful way to explore the intersection of form, matter, and consciousness, much like the interest in impermanence of architecture and the symbolic aspects of art

Spanning over three decades, Ionone's discography includes
the ambitious Time Machine, a three-movement opus that traces their evolution from minimalist piano meditations to sprawling electronic tapestries. The single When, a haunting solo piano piece exemplifidel the ability to distill profound emotion into stark, crystalline melodies. Anima Unveiled, The Equilibrist, and more. Drawing inspiration from classical artists, lonone music bridges the organic and synthetic, offering refuge for lovers of the contemplative and the avant-garde.

The catalog streams globally on Spotify, SoundClouds, and niche platforms like ReverbNation, where listeners uncover a universe of sound that shifts seamlessly between fragility and grandeur. For Ionone, music is not just a medium but a temporal map where past, present, and future coexist in resonant harmony.

Anima Unveiled
"Anima Unveiled" by Ionone is an ambient track that unfolds with a hypnotic blend of ethereal textures and deep, resonant piano. Released in 2015, the song embraces a cinematic quality, evoking a sense of introspection and dreamlike exploration.
The composition is layered yet airy, allowing each element—whether the pulsating rhythms or drifting melodies to breathe and evolve over its 5-minute 30-second duration. It’s the kind of soundscape that could easily accompany a meditative moment or a night-time cityscape viewed from afar. Fans of ambient and experimental electronica will appreciate the subtle shifts and immersive atmosphere that Ionone crafts with precision.

When
Orchestral/Accordion Version
Ionone’s When in its orchestral and accordion arrangement transforms the piece into a sweeping, cinematic experience. While the piano solo version is intimate and introspective, this rendition expands the emotional landscape, adding layers of grandeur and movement.
The accordion introduces a rich, expressive timbre, weaving between the orchestral textures with a voice that feels both nostalgic and adventurous. It brings a sense of storytelling—almost like a wandering melody that carries echoes of distant places and memories. The orchestration enhances this effect, with strings swelling in moments of intensity and woodwinds offering delicate counterpoints.

Soul Arise
A ritual for Piano, Orchestra, and Choir
In Soul Arise, Ionone Music unveils a sonic glyph of ascension—an orchestral ritual where piano, choir, and ensemble converge in a slow-burning emergence from silence to radiance. The piece unfolds like a ceremonial procession: not toward climax, but toward clarity.
Ionone’s signature approach treats sound as glyph, each gesture as a vessel for transformation. Drawing from ancient aesthetics and avant-garde abstraction, Soul Arise continues Ionone’s lineage of interdisciplinary ritual, where music, architecture, and symbolic language converge.
What distinguishes Soul Arise is its dramaturgy of restraint. Ionone resists the temptation of spectacle, instead sculpting a space where each gesture is a glyph, each silence a chamber. The composition feels less like a performance and more like a rite, an invocation of the liminal, where sound becomes architecture and time becomes breath.

Inner Land
A Ritual Composition for Piano and Orchestra
Ionone Music’s “Inner Land” is a ritual in sonic form. More than a mere composition for piano and orchestra, it constructs a symbolic architecture where the piano acts as an initiatory guide and the orchestra provides a shimmering, resonant landscape.
The piece favors philosophical exploration over traditional virtuosity, using iterative motifs and textural depth to transform simple gestures into profound glyphs of meaning. It is a work of avant-garde dramaturgy that invites a deeply poetic and performative mode of listening, offering a passage through thresholds of silence, sound, and transformation. For those attuned to the poetics of contemporary music, "Inner Land" is a compelling and immersive auditory ritual.

The dramaturgical intent is palpable: every sonic gesture feels deliberate, each transition a meaningful transformation.

The Equilibrist
(Accordion and Orchestra Version)
The Equilibrist is a captivating dance of tension and harmony mirroring the poised grace of its titular tightrope walker. At its core, the accordion breathes life into the composition, oscillating between intimate whispers and bold declarations, while the orchestra envelops it in a rich, ever-shifting soundscape. Together, they craft a narrative that is as much about vulnerability as it is about triumph.

What stands out is the dialogue between the accordion and orchestra. In moments of solitude, the instrument’s reedy timbre flutters with introspection, as if contemplating the void below. The climax is a heart-stopping crescendo—a dizzying spiral of sound that captures the exhilaration of risk—before retreating into a resolution tinged with quiet awe, like the exhale after a perilous feat.
Listen to The Equilibrist on: Google search, SoundCloud, ReverbNation, Facebook, Facebook1, Apple Music, Vimeo, YouTube Music, Pandora Spotify, Amazon UK, Amazon ES, Amazon US,

The Equilibrist is a a work where the accordion’s bellows become the lungs of a living, breathing narrative. The piece opens with a solitary G minor motif on the accordion—a series of staccato eighth notes that mimic the tentative shuffle of feet on a wire. The orchestra enters not as a backdrop but as a spectral partner: muted violins and a lone bassoon hum beneath, their harmonics blurring like the distant murmur of a crowd. This interplay sets the stage for a sonic high-wire act, where every phrase feels perilous yet precise.
