in practice are excerpts of leo’s daily work with music recomposition for voice as part of their multimedia opera “Just Another Shadie Bitch.” Through vocal improvisation influenced by the work of Samita Sinha (artist and composer based in New York, US) and a critical approach to the operatic voice, leo dismembers and reorganizes the structure of songs. For the Sommerfest 2022 at Akademie Schloss Solitude, leo shares this process using the song “I Put a Spell on You” by Screamin Jay Hawkins as the base for a performance.
