Noémi Büchi is a Franco-Swiss composer and sound artist whose music combines electronics and symphony to the maximum. Her music is characterised by a subtle blend of textured rhythms and electroacoustic and orchestral sounds. She explores the contrasts between consonance and dissonance, combining powerful rhythms with disturbing sounds. She highlights irregularities to offer a rich and nuanced listening experience. After classical training in piano and composition, a master’s degree in electroacoustic composition, musicology and literature in Zurich, she completed a thesis in music theory at Stockholm University. Strongly influenced by Romantic and Impressionist music, she reinvents it with a contemporary approach. In 2022, the -OUS Records label released her debut album “Matter” and its prelude “Hyle”, as well as an album in collaboration with the Swiss-Italian composer and installation artist Feldermelder under the name “Musique Infinie”.
Noémi Büchi was welcomed to the festival in 2021 for a live performance at the Salle de la Cité, and she released in 2023 “Le réel à l’état brut”, a podcast for the Ensemble series.
