Sophia Brous

Hailed as a “prodigious chanteuse” by Rolling Stone and a “revelation” by the UK Observer, Melbourne-born Sophia Brous is a cross-disciplinary vocalist, musician, performer and artistic director.

PROJECT:

Showcase “Lullaby Project” during Association of Performing Arts Presenters (APAP) festival and on NS Opening Night; develop a new work, “Gorgons”, with research at Yale University and workshop performance.

IN THE ARTIST’S WORDS:

“It’s such a joy and privilege to be a part of the National Sawdust family. The work Paola and her team do enlivens New York and the international creative music community. They are helping nurture new work of beauty and complexity, and supporting the thriving music community here and abroad. It’s a thrill to be one of their second season artists-in-residents for their second season and I’m looking forward to making beautiful work together over the next year.”
