New Residency by Elisabeth Lusche

We welcome Elisabeth Lusche for an artistic residency at studio LOOS called EMBODIMENT and EMPOWERMENT.

“EMBODIMENT and EMPOWERMENT” will be presented as part of the third season of eavesdropping - a concert series and symposium based in London, UK (and online) - from the 20th to the 25th of April.

Elisabeth Lusche is a trumpet player specialising in new and improvised music. Originally from a small town in Alabama, Elisabeth is now based in The Hague, the Netherlands.

Elisabeth was a soloist in the Dutch National Opera’s critically-acclaimed “aus LICHT” production of Karlheinz Stockhausen’s opera cycle and has had numerous festival performances including the Holland Festival, Grachtenfestival (Theme Prize 2019 and OORKAAN Prize recipient), Rewire, Opera Forward Festival, and Klangspuren Festival (Pilgerwanderung 2018). Elisabeth has served as a guest artist at Auburn University.

Elisabeth is currently engaged as an author for the “Global Breath” project directed by Marco Blaauw and is a member of the Scottish street orchestra, the Nevis Ensemble, where she also serves as a presenter and writer. Elisabeth’s ongoing research project, “Embodiment and Empowerment,” is centered around issues of gender, trauma and the physical body on stage and has been delivered in part in lecture series at the Stockhausen Courses Kürten.
