LISA LERKENFELDT
COMPOSER AND PERFOMER


Lisa Lerkenfeldt is a composer and performer based in Melbourne. Her gently glitched piano recitals span genres‬ and melt time. Primarily using the piano, analogue tape systems and contemporary digital software she blends‬ tradition and experimentation. Drawing from lineages of musique concrète, minimalism and modern composition, she seeks out altered tonalities with contemporary resonance and the beauty of restraint. Her‬ trance-like attention to detail and explorations in timbre and improvisation inform a tactile elegance. In 2020‬ she joined the roster of French imprint Shelter Press with her debut EP A‬‭ Liquor Of Daisies‬‭ and LP‬‭ Collagen‬‭. With Water Up To Her Knee‬‭s—an electroacoustic work‬‭ and film—premiered at The Substation, Melbourne in 2022. Following national tours of Australia and Japan, in 2024 she was a composer in residence at INA GRM‬, Paris. On June 7, 2024 she premiered the multichannel work‬‭ In The Window Of Time‬‭ at Le Centquatre‬ commissioned by INA GRM.‬
