Katinka Fogh Vindelev is a Danish classically trained soprano, performer and composer.
Katinka’s work is grounded in an extensive voice training, a primary source for exploring new hybrids of compositional and performative territories.
Working within the scene of contemporary classical music and opera, Katinka has been premiering a string of new works by Danish composers such as Den Sidste Olie by Niels Rønsholdt & OPEN, One World Above another Below by Lil Lacy, HIMMEL by Line Tjørnhøj, Stille Slag by Louise Alenius, Dyrets år – 1666 by John Frandsen, Liquid Rooms by Karsten Fundal and ongoing collabs with composer Signe Lykke, with whom she has founded Motherboard a company of interdisciplinary artists, who co-creates a new opera trilogy from a poetic, documentary and bodily starting point.
In 2021 Katinka received the prestigious Léonie Sonning Talent Prize
Katinka’s voice composition, Moonologue, was created in collaboration with visual artist Marie Kølbæk Iversen and features counter tenor Morten Grove Frandsen and Vindelev herself. It was a commission from LOUISIANA – Museum of Modern Art and was performed at The Moon exhibition there. Subsequently Moonologue was released on the Danish label Antipyrine.
In 2020 she and Danish violinist Louise Gorm founded the duo KFVLG. They are performing the monumental “Kafka Fragmente” by Kurtág and a new work Fragmenter af Flugt which they co-create with composer Line Tjørnhøj and writer and director Tanja Diers.
Through a solo project Katinka calls A voice in a voice in a voice she portrays the human voice through installations, compositions and is currently working on an album release containing samples of Katinka’s voice only.
This website focuses mainly on Katinka’s present projects and works. For previous works and collaborations see CV.
