Sabrina Schroeder

Composer in Residence 2019 – 2021

What does the creative journey of a composer encompass? What does it mean to create music that moves audiences?

Music on Main’s 2019-21 Composer in Residence was Sabrina Schroeder, a composer-performer and Assistant Professor of Composition at Simon Fraser University’s School for the Contemporary Arts. Using new technology like tactile transducers, live processing, and self-built mechanics, Sabrina’s immersive, palpable performances centre not only on her music, but on the body-feel that emanates from it.

Her music digs into heavy sound spaces with the power to awaken mind-body connections.
