Natálie Pleváková

Natálie Pleváková is a composer and sound artist. She graduated at Janacek Academy of Music and Performance Arts in Brno in the field of Multimedia Composition. As a part of her studies she attended the Netherlands Institute of Sonology in The Hague. She graduated from the Institute of Musicology at Masaryk University with a thesis mapping electronic music education in the Czech Republic and in the context of the development of traditional music education. Her work explores sound narrative as a compositional strategy.  She is also looking for ways out of the temporal determinism of music and fragmented musical perception based on the listener's experience. In doing so, she calls for the joint discovery of new aesthetic categories in music and the enhancement of listening sensitivity. She regularly collaborates on theatre productions, creates sound design for podcasts, and collaborates with visual artists on AV works. She is currently the dramaturg of Sanatorium Sonorum, a festival and residency program presenting contemporary music and sound arts, and is also engaged in educational activities.
