Loré Lixenberg (UK/AT)

Loré Lixenberg is a performer/soundartist whose work moves fluidly across contemporary music, experimental opera, physical theatre and live art. Originally trained as a mezzo-soprano and composer, she has built an unusually wide-ranging practice that also embraces sound art, radio, film, coding and direction, always led by the demands of the idea. She has premiered countless works written for her voice at major international festivals including Donaueschingen, Darmstadt, Witten, Wien Modern and Ultima, collaborating with ensembles such as Klangforum Wien, Ensemble Intercontemporain and Ensemble Recherche. Her own projects investigate the voice in relation to politics, technology and economics, notably Prêt à Chanter, The Singterviews, Singlr and Voxxcoin. In 2017, she founded The Voice Party, a hybrid of political party and opera, and stood in the UK general elections of 2019 and 2024. In 2026 she premieres new works by Jennifer Walshe and Philip Venables at Fondation Cartier, Paris, and appears at Wigmore Hall later this year.
