About
Astrid Sonne is a Danish composer and viola player, currently based in London.
Her expression moves freely within the realm of electronic experiments side by side with melodic curiosity and baroque approaches, and improvised passages are incorporated into precise compositions with intuitive grace.
Her most recent studio album “outside of your lifetime” was released in September 2021 (Escho). The album consists of 10 tracks appearing like open, sonic spaces where the individual can disintegrate into a sphere of keys, strings, voice and buttons, and elaborates on the musical world carefully created through critically acclaimed previous releases “Cliodynamics” (2019) and “Human Lines” (2018).
