Bio:
Andrea Giordano is an experimental musician, singer, and composer from Cuneo, Italy and based in Oslo. In works characterized by rich chamber orchestration, Giordano investigates how acoustic instruments can be augmented by electronic means. Since 2018, Giordano has been creating vocal works in Piedmontese, drawing upon ongoing research into her family’s dialect.
Giordano’s recent work includes the large ensemble project Àlea, the solo project “exapist euforia,” duo collaborations with Fanny Meteier and Eivind Lønning; and an upcoming interdisciplinary project with Kjell Bjørgeengen. Giordano completed her undergraduate work at Siena Jazz University and continued with a master’s in jazz and performance at the Norwegian Academy of Music, where she was a student of Sidsel Endresen.
