Lea Bertucci is an artist, composer and performer whose work describes relationships between acoustic phenomena and biological resonance. In addition to her long-standing practice with woodwind instruments, her work includes multi-channel loudspeaker arrays, radical methods of free improvisation and the creative misuse of audio technology applied to field recordings and sampling/collage techniques. In recent years, her projects have expanded towards site-specific and site-related sound investigations of architecture and acoustics, most notably in 2018's Acoustic Shadows, a series of compositions and a sound installation that took place in the hollow body of the Deutzer Brücke in Cologne as part of the Brückenmusik Festival. Her self-taught and idiosyncratic approach to music is characterized by dense masses of sustained dissonance and a fascination with the sonic substance of everyday experience through eccentric methods of field recording and collage. Tape manipulation and other creative recording techniques push the boundaries of the recorded medium to evoke an intense experience of sound and emotion in the listener.
