Leila Bordreuil is a French cellist, composer and sound artist based in Brooklyn, New York.
She accesses concepts as diverse as noise, contemporary classical, free jazz, and experimental traditions and yet adheres to none of them. Her music mixes deep melancholia with harsh noise-walls at earth shattering levels. Her compositions frequently incorporate sound-spatialization by way of site-specific pieces and multichannel installations. Bordreuil is a 2021 Jerome Foundation Artist Fellow and an Artist in Residence at INA GRM. Her work has been showcased at notable venues including The Whitney Museum, MoMA PS1, Le Guess Who, Cafe Oto, Sound of Stockholm Festival, among many others. She is currently interested in neurological perception and our physiological relationship to sound and space.
