Olivia Zaugg (Bern, 1995) is living in Basel where she studied classical piano at the Musik-Akademie. She completed her post-graduate studies with Prof. Anton Kernjak in summer 2021. Her specialization in Lied has led to various duo collaborations: with Elionor Martínez Lara (focus French-Catalan repertoire), Sarah Widmer (focus folk song arrangements) and with Maria Laschinger (duo Blickwechsel, focus female composers). Interdisciplinary projects form an important part of her artistic work such as the participation in the music theater piece Triptychon or her solo performance Gaspis wundersame Reise, in which she combines text, movement and music. Her broad musical interests are reflected in cross-stylistic projects such as the duo GGCK with Martin Reck (live electronics and piano) or the Trio Weón with South American folk music, in which she participates as a singer and accordionist.
