Passepartout Duo is a music group comprised of pianist Nicoletta Favari and percussionist Christopher Salvito. Making music that escapes categorization, the duo’s ongoing travel around the world informs the multi-disciplinary collaborations, instrumental compositions, and evocative music videos that constitute their body of work. The musical events they create focus on reconsidering the modalities in which people listen to and connect with music, and are cast from a wide range of aesthetics and disciplines.
Their new album 'Daylighting' is released on June 25th, 2021 on the Chinese label AnyOne.

In this newly released discographic project called "Daylighting", Passepartout Duo continues to explore their fascination with building personalized musical instruments. A suite of small portable percussion accompanies the two musicians’ newly built expanded installation, an imaginary garden that functionally integrated textile fibers and electronic circuitry. Highlighting the potential of these devices, Passepartout explores timbrical, rhythmic, and melodic unison ideas, setting up a journey across sonic dimensions which exist in parallel and only occasionally happen to collide.
