Marcela Lucatelli (born 13 April 1988) is a Brazilian composer, director, vocalist and performance artist. [1]
Lucatelli was born in São Paulo, Brazil, in a family of Italian origins. She studied composition at the Danish National Academy of Music, the Royal Danish Academy of Music and the Danish National School of Performing Arts. She is known for writing "scores for the limits of bodies and voice". [2] Her works have been performed by vocal groups such as the Danish National Vocal Ensemble and Neue Vocalsolisten Stuttgart, together with ensembles such as Apartment House, Bastard Assignments and Mocrep. Her works have been premiered at Donaueschinger Musiktage, Darmstadt Internationale Ferienkurse für Neue Musik, Nordic Music Days, KLANG - Copenhagen Avantgarde Music Festival, SPOR Festival, Copenhagen Jazz Festival, AllEars Festival for Improvised Music, FILE - Electronic Language International Festival, WOMEX, among other festivals and events worldwide, including contemporary art museums such as Nikolaj Kunsthal, ARKEN and Henie Onstad Art Center. Her music has also been streamed by several national radios including DR P2, BBC 3 and NRK.
Lucatelli's vocals have been described as "inhuman human noise" [3] and her visual expression as "scary and breathtaking". [4] She has been praised for her convincing technique and natural stage presence as an authority. [5] Her work ISYCH, das Moment – or how to describe atomic habits (2019) was described as a Gesamtkunstwerk that "romped through the academic, the popular, the cutting, the banal, the theatrical, the zoological, the unfathomably brilliant, the obfuscatingly bizarre and the rib-ticklingly entertaining". [6] Her aesthetics has been pointed out as a new musical direction to search and new impulses to embed in the music concept. [5]
The cancellation of her first orchestral work RGBW shortly before the first performance sparked debate on social media and in Danish newspapers about whether Danish radio stations and orchestras give enough space to upcoming composers. [7]
In 2016, her performance work decant from 2013 was chosen as the official image for Nordic Music Days at Harpa, in Reykjavik. In 2019, Lucatelli was awarded the Carl Nielsen and Anne Marie Carl-Nielsen Foundation Talent Prize in Composition. [8]
