In the ever-evolving world of new music, few voices are as distinct and unforgettable as that of Amy Beth Kirsten. Her work defies easy categorization, it is daring, rigorous, theatrical, and unflinchingly original. While many composers find comfort within the borders of tradition, Kirsten thrives at the edges, where music becomes movement, sound becomes language, and performance transforms into a ritual.

In a world where the boundaries of classical composition continue to expand, Luxembourgish composer Catherine Kontz stands at the frontier, merging music with theatre, movement, and space in electrifying ways. Her journey into composition wasn't linear nor conventional, but this path has shaped her into one of the most imaginative minds in contemporary music.

 Drewett explains what inspired her to become a composer: "I always knew I wanted to do something creative. I was very creative growing up; it was essential to me—but it didn't always come from music; it came from painting." Her artistic instincts initially found expression through visual art before music became her primary creative outlet.
