Guitarist Verena Merstallinger finds music where words end. With her guitar, she tells stories of female composers of past and present – multifaceted, sensual, and provocative. Her programs blend Romanticism with the avant-garde, sound with physicality, and technical skill with expression. As a soloist, in a duo, or in an ensemble, she transcends stylistic and disciplinary boundaries, always in search of something new. Whether on classical stages, in the theater, or with the electric guitar in contemporary music – Verena's playing moves the listener, raises questions, and opens up new spaces.
