Verena Marisa is a German-Brazilian composer, sound artist and multi-instrumentalist. She is an expert performer of the theremin – an early electronic instrument, which is played without touching it.
As performer Verena appears at festivals in the experimental realm, including Jazz and New Music. She is the first thereminist to compose an entire solo concert program for this unique instrument, and continues to present it throughout Europe.
She has collaborated fruitfully with lyricist Nora Gomringer, recipient of Bachmann Prize.
As composer she has premiered orchestral works, such as NEW ERA at Munich Philharmonic Hall and MORPHOLOGY at Tonhalle in Munich with great critical acclaim ("one of the best new works", NMZ).
Verena has further composed music for feature films, working with directors Rudi Gaul, Franziska Schlotterer and Golden Globe-nominee Max Färberböck.
In theater she has composed for Neuköllner Oper in Berlin and Schauspiel Frankfurt, with directors Sommer Ulrickson and Ersan Mondtag.
