About: Na'ama Zisser

Na'ama Zisser is a London-based Israeli composer. Her work is visually driven and often collaborative with other art forms, with a focus on opera, contemporary dance, moving image, installations, staged performances, and instrumental music. Her practice involves the use of both electronic and acoustic mediums. Her music is concerned with intonation, textures, intimacy, and nostalgia, and has been described as ‘free of cliches’ (The Guardian) and ‘hauntingly melodic’ (The Stage). She is the first to introduce cantorial music into contemporary opera. She is currently based in London.
