She improvised a solo for us that sounds like a concerto for a full string orchestra plus electronic, but it's actually one take, no overdub, her cello and a mic. Still asking to ourself how is it possible?!?!
Honoured to have in the line up of cataclisma 2020 the amazing Lucija Gregov!
Lucija Gregov is a cellist, improviser and artist whose work describes and explores new sonic landscapes. Adding to her instrumental cello practice, she integrates analogue synthesizers and processed field recordings to her compositions. Her visceral approach to improvisation proposes a distinctive way of creating, thinking and performing in and about current sonic dynamic. Following indicators of flow, experimentation, investigation of unexplored physical and spiritual spaces, Lucija's work enables emergence of practice and sound materials that are open-ended and continuously transformative. She is an active member of RE#SISTER collective and co-creator of interdisciplinary encounters such as Fruit From the Forest, Farbenfroh, cTrL, Hydra Ensemble and The Mystifies. Her interest in contemporary music, improvisation and theatre brought her to further study and collaborate with artists such as Peter Ablinger, Vinko Globokar, Ernst Reijseger, Werner Herzog, Jannis Brenner, Manhattan String Quartet, Thys (Noisia) and many others.
