Noémi BüchiCH
Noémi Büchi is a Swiss/French composer and sound artist creating and exploring the potential of cross-genre musical structures. Her music is defined by a delicate synthesis of textural rhythms and electroacoustic-orchestral abstraction. She contrasts rhythmic physicality with disruption, playfully emphasizing irregularities in an expansive listening experience marked by detail and elevation.
Her most recent album, Exuvie (2026), explores the tension between matter and memory; the traces that remain after change. Inspired by the distorted realities of Francis Bacon and Salvador Dali, the album maps the processes through which the body absorbs, remembers, and transforms.
Her musical work moves in the areas of live performances; audiovisual shows; music for film, contemporary dance, installations, and theater; and orchestral works. She holds a Master's degree in electroacoustic composition from the Zurich University of the Arts and a Bachelor's degree in musicology from the University of Zürich.
Noémi Büchi — Exuvie
Live A/V | Canadian premiere
In Exuvie, Noémi Büchi meditates on transformation and corporeal memory, unraveling the fragile boundary between the real and the imagined. Symphonic, fluttering, and eerily dissonant, her electroacoustic compositions lace together recollected fragments of video game, anime, and hip hop influences, oscillating against depictions of the body as a living archive where memory, perception, and space ceaselessly contort.
