Biography

edit

Lisa Streich was born on 19 April 1985 in Norra Råda, Sweden.[1][2] She grew up in Germany[3] and studied composition and organ at the Berlin University of the Arts (2005–07), Royal College of Music, Stockholm (2007–10), Mozarteum in Salzburg (2008–09), Hochschule für Musik und Tanz Köln (2010–13) and IRCAM in Paris (2011–12).[4] Teachers had been Johannes Schöllhorn[5] and Adriana Hölszky.[3]

Streich composed FALTER for violin for the 2021 ARD International Music Competition.[6][7] Until 2023, she was scholarship recipient at the Norwegian Academy of Music, with Helmut Lachenmann as her mentor.[8] In 2024, Streich has been composer-in-residence at the Lucerne Festival and Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra.[9][10] She received commissions by the Berlin Philharmonic (ISHJÄRTA),[11] Lucerne Festival (REIGEN),[12] and NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchestra (FLÜGEL).[13][14] The trumpet concerto MEDUSE was premiered in 2024 by the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra.[15][3] Streich's works are published by Ricordi Berlin.[16]

Personal life

edit

Streich lives on Gotland, Sweden.[3]

Style

edit

Streich composes music of contrasts,[17] cold and hot is the contrast in ISHJÄRTA (Ice Heart).[18] Streich uses electronics and prepares instruments with small motorised machines, that create a mechanical sound.[17] For the first time in SEGEL (2017), she has been creating imperfect floating, unclear chords through spectral transformation, called spectral tonality.[17][19] Alan Gilbert said in an interview: "She integrates the performers strongly into the creative composition process."[14]
