Inti Figgis- Vizueta- Talamh
Performed by Evlana at the National Concert Hall, Dublin as part of New Music Dublin, April 2024.

NY-based composer inti figgis-vizueta (b. 1993) braids a childhood of overlapping immigrant communities and Black-founded Freedom schools—in Chocolate City (DC) —with direct Andean & Irish heritage and a deep connection to the land. Her work explores the transformative power of group improvisation and play, working to reconcile historical aesthetics and experimental practices with trans & Indigenous futures.
Recent highlights include the Carnegie Hall premiere of her string quartet concerto, Seven Sides of Fire, written for the Attacca Quartet and American Composers Orchestra; performances of Coradh (bending) by the Spoleto Festival, PODIUM Festival, and Oregon Symphony; and the REDCAT premiere of her evening-length show Music for Transitions, created in collaboration with Grammy Award-winning cellist Andrew Yee.

Upcoming projects include clay songs for Kronos Quartet’s 50th Anniversary, a new Carnegie Hall-commissioned work for Ensemble Connect, continued development of Earths to Come for vocal ensemble Roomful of Teeth, and a new piano concerto for Conrad Tao and the Cincinnati Symphony, conducted by Matthias Pintscher.
