Ivana Kiš

(Redirected from Ivana Kis)

Ivana Kiš (born 2 March 1979 in Zagreb[1]) is a Croatian composer[2] of classical music, electronic music and music theatre.

Kiš finished her bachelor composition studies with Marko Ruždjak [hr] (2002), and her master studies in the Royal Conservatory of The Hague with Louis Andriessen, Gilius van Bergeijk and Diederik Wagenaar (2006).[3]

Kiš' compositions have been performed by many ensembles such as Asko Ensemble, Maarten Altena Ensemble, Zagreb Philharmonic Orchestra, Netherlands Wind Ensemble and The Croatian Television Symphonic Orchestra.[1] With Tomislav Oliver, Kiš composed the music for Kraljevi bogova, a ballet choreographed by Pascal Touzeau, performed for the first time in Croatian National Theatre in Zagreb in 2015, as a part of the 28th Music Biennale Zagreb.[4]

The entire body of Kiš' work connects music with drama or visual elements.[1] In the last few years her career is developing in the direction of creating music theatre performances.

Since 2007, Kiš lives in Israel,[5] where she teaches music in Tel Aviv and Kiryat Ono.[3]
