Colombian-American soprano STEPHANIE LAMPREA is an architect of new sounds and expressions as a performer, composer, and multidisciplinary artist, specializing in contemporary classical repertoire. Trained as an operatic coloratura, she uses her voice as a mechanism of avant-garde performance art, creating “maniacal shifts of vocal production and character... like an icepick through the skull” (Jason Eckardt). She has performed as a soloist at Roulette Intermedium, Constellation Chicago, Sound Scotland, Kings Place, Southbank Centre, Huddersfield Contemporary Music Festival, CCA Glasgow, the Hidden Door Festival, and the Casa da Música (Porto). Her albums 'Quaking Aspen', Georges Aperghis' 14 Récitations and 'Don't Add to Heartache' have been released to international critical acclaim. Stephanie has also collaborated with Riot Ensemble, International Contemporary Ensemble, the City of London Sinfonia, Sō Percussion, and Post Coal Prom Queen.
