Bioscope

Bioscope are Steve Rothery, founding member and guitarist of Marillion, whose melodic playing helped define the sound of modern progressive rock and led to millions of records sold and Thorsten Quaeschning, musical director of Tangerine Dream, credited on over 80 releases and internationally known for his work on film and game soundtracks, real-time composition, and electronic music innovation. Together, they bring decades of musical experience to a project that feels both intimate and expansive. Rothery’s guitar lines speak with emotional clarity, while Quaeschning’s detailed sound design shapes the music’s internal architecture. Their collaboration is not just a fusion of styles, but a thoughtful dialogue between two established musical identities – a true ‘bioscope’ in the sense of offering a view of life through music. The name Bioscope comes from the Greek bios (life) and skopeein (to look). Before cinema, it meant ‘a view or survey of life’ – a fitting metaphor for a project that turns musical experience into shared perception.
