On 04 March there will be presentations by Viktoriia Vitrenko and Anda Kryeziu.
Viktoriia Vitrenko is a versatile Ukrainian soprano, conductor and curator specialising in contemporary music and transdisciplinary projects. She was Artist-in-Residence at Akademie Schloss Solitude in Stuttgart (2023/24) and at Cité des Arts in Paris (2021), as well as a fellow in the programme "InSzene Vokal" and in DIRIGENTENFORUM under Deutscher Musikrat.
Vitrenko is also the founder and artistic co-director of INTERAKT (established in 2017 in Stuttgart), an interdisciplinary platform devoted to cultural dialogue, experimental performance formats and socially engaged artistic practice. Through her artistic work, she seeks to expand the boundaries of vocal expression while promoting intercultural exchange and contemporary artistic discourse.
Anda Kryeziu, born in 1993 in Kosovo and living in Berlin, is a composer, performer and intermedia artist. Her music has been performed at numerous festivals, including ECLAT Festival, Warsaw Autumn, SPOR Aarhus, Munich Biennale, Neue Musik Rümlingen, Darmstädter Ferienkurse, Monstra Sonora Valencia and November Music. In 2023, her opera PERSONA, based on the film by Ingmar Bergman, premiered as a collaboration between Theater Basel and Gare du Nord. She has received several grants and awards, including the 69. Composition Prize from the City of Stuttgart (2024), the Contemporary Arts Alliance Berlin Award and the Akademie Musiktheater Heute from the Deutsche Bank Foundation.
Her work moves within different genres such as instrumental music, multimedia and music theatre. Rooted in themes of memory, power and resistance, she creates complex and layered listening experiences - often using archival material, found sound and theatrical elements. Ana's art resists easy definitions and offers a deeply contemporary response to a complex world.
