Leila Bordreuil is a French-American cellist, composer and sound artist based in Brooklyn, NY. Her music accesses concepts from noise, free jazz, contemporary classical and other experimental traditions but adheres to no single genre. Mixing melancholic cello melodies with harsh noise walls, she creates “steadily scathing music, favoring long and corrosive atonalities.” (New York Times). Driven by a fierce interest in pure sound and inherent texture, Leila challenges conventional cello practice through extreme extended techniques and amplification methods, to the extent she sometimes seems to be playing the P.A rather than her cello. Hercomposed works frequently incorporate sound-spatialization by way of site-specific pieces and multichannel installations.
Her panoramic vision of form and genre is reflected in the diversity of her collaborative projects, which include artists such as Tamio Shiraishi (Fushitutsa), Lee Ranaldo (Sonic Youth), Kali Malone, Laurel Halo, Drew McDowall (Coil), Zach Rowden (Tongue Depressor), Julia Santoli and Luke Stewart (Irreversible Entanglements).
Her record on Hanson Records last year has also been on constant rotation here at Lubber, cant wait!
