About the artists:
Colombian-American soprano Stephanie Lamprea is an architect of new sounds and expressions as a performer, composer, and multidisciplinary artist, specializing in contemporary classical repertoire. Trained as an operatic coloratura, she uses her voice as a mechanism of avant-garde performance art, creating “maniacal shifts of vocal production and character... like an icepick through the skull” (Jason Eckardt). She has performed as a soloist at Roulette Intermedium, Constellation Chicago, Sound Scotland, Kings Place, Southbank Centre, the Huddersfield Contemporary Music Festival, the Hidden Door Festival, and the Casa da Música. She has collaborated with the London Sinfonietta, International Contemporary Ensemble, the City of London Sinfonia, Sō Percussion, and Post Coal Prom Queen. https://www.stephanielamprea.com/
Jessica Kerr is originally from Nottingham. She moved to Glasgow in 2005 following an undergraduate music degree at Bristol University and postgraduate study with Hannah Roberts at the Royal Northern College of Music. Jessica is exploring the intersection of the arts with nature, positive climate action and environmental social justice. Recent projects in this sphere include Stories of People and Trees, a commission from the Scottish Ecological Design Agency Song shall be our Measure, and a joint commission by Cove Park and the Argyll Community Rainforest Network for artistic engagement in the temperate rainforests of Scotland. Cellist with Glisk, the Kentigern Quartet and the GRIT orchestra, Jessica has a wide range of orchestral experience within Scotland and beyond, and is a Senior Musician at Big Noise Govanhill. She plays on an English cello dating from 1810 by Furber, and was generously supported by the Arts Trust of Scotland in acquiring the instrument. https://www.storiesofpeopleandtrees.com/
