Composer and Artist

Yuval Avital talk of himself, of how his path has developed from
his career as a classical guitar soloist till being a composer
and multimedia artist creating installations, exhibitions,
concerts and sonic events of very large scale.

He tell of his roots in Jerusalem, together with his interest and
research of a multiplicity of musical paradigms. Also his
important work in the field of visual arts, which had influenced
deeply his creation, bringing a unique voice to contemporary art
museums, theatres and unusual public venues such as industrial
archaeological sites, challenging the traditional crystallized
categories that separate the arts.

In this interview he shares his transdisciplinary approach,
enhanced the relation that sound, and specifically the Voice, has
with his artworks and performances; tells of his approach toward
composing and creating and what role the Forest and nature play
in his works; the challenge of notation in works also including
many non-European cultural traditions; of meaningfulness and how
it influences his composing process. He gives very serious and
practical ideas and tips for young musicians and artists.
