Evelyn Ficarra is a composer and sound artist. Her work finds expression across a range of forms including music theatre, multimedia, installation, dance, film and the concert hall. Her musical ideas often come from sounds, words, and images, which inform the development and shape of the music and leave their traces in it. She enjoys working closely with musicians to develop a shared vocabulary, and she is also active as an improvisor.
Evelyn is Professor of Interdisciplinary Composition at the University of Sussex, where she initiated a research project in Robot Opera.
