Biiana Voutchkova, violin/voice
Biliana Voutchkova is a thoroughly engaged composer-performer/interpreter whose work combines regular performances of major solo violin/ensemble works, new works by contemporary composers often written for her, and her own work with performative, long length formats, real time composition and improvisation. Her research as a creative artist spans the widest possible range of sound/music/movement and extends the sonic and technical capacities of her instrument evolving into the development of a highly individual musical and physical language. Biliana lives in Berlin and appears at festivals and concert series worldwide. She works as a soloist and collaborates with Voutchkova/Thieke duo, the Splitter Orchestra, Solistenensemble Kaleidoskop, Ensemble Modern, Ensembles United Berlin, Zeitkratzer, Mozaik, LUX:NM and Sasha Waltz & Guests, among others. Recent/current projects include solo concerts at the Huddersfield Contemporary Music Festival, Klangspuren Schwaz Festival, Vorspiel/Transmediale, GAS, Mózg, Moving Music and Radar Festivals, solo tour in Colombia/Chile, performances with the Berliner Ensemble and She She Pop, appearances at Cafe Oto, Klangwerkstatt, Documenta14, Wien Modern, Experimental Intermedia, Météo Mulhouse, the release of her solo album "Modus of Raw" and the recent triplet “Blurred Music" which were received with critical acclaim worldwide. Biliana has received the Composition Stipend from the Berliner Senate and grands from INM Berlin, Musikfonds and the Trust for Mutual Understanding in New York.
