Victoria Jordanova

Appears on:

Victoria Jordanova is a composer, harpist and media artist. She “has a tightly controlled focus to her work, a singularity of vision” (NewMusicBox Magazine, 2005) all while melding experimental techniques, electronics and improvisation with her classical music education. An international career, the San Francisco and New York alternative avant-garde, as well as contemporary politics and culture informs Jordanova’s music world.

Her works are “strange and fascinating, very personal and delicate, full of great imagination” (Jan de Kruijff Musicalifeiten, Netherland, 2017) and yet her music remains “very beautiful in the traditional sense” (Tim Page, New York Newsday,1994). Jordanova has released six albums on CRI, Innova and Arpaviva labels. CRI included her music in the anniversary anthology release of American music, “Forty Years of Discovery”.

In 2002, Jordanova founded the Los Angeles based independent music and media label Arpaviva Recordings. She has performed at Lincoln Center’s Alice Tully Hall, Merkin Concert Hall (NY), MOMA, LACMA, Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, San Francisco, CNMAT at UC Berkeley, Experimental Intermedia, NY and other venues nationally and internationally.
