gemma ragués pujol /1993/
Composer, text performer and sometimes writer specialized in contemporary and experimental music.
Her pieces find its ground in the acoustic palette and its root in deep conceptual and poetic ideas. Works often in the crossovers between voice and electronics, physical presence and performance. She uses text and poetry to build up stories and dramaturgies full of onirism and humour.
She has performed alone in big venues like la Biennale di Venezia Musica 2022, Tafelhalle Nürnberg or Musikfestival Bern and has worked with professional ensembles such as VORTEX Ensemble, the Biel Symphony Orchestra, NEC or NEKO3, beyond others.
