Astrid Sonne

Danish composer and violist Astrid Sonne is part of a wave of musicians reshaping European alt-pop. At RALLY, we’re excited for a performance that moves fluidly across electronic, classical and experimental idioms – offering a glimpse into the future of avant-garde pop.
A graduate of Copenhagen’s Rhythmic Music Conservatory in 2019 – a school recently profiled in The Guardian as a quiet powerhouse of experimental talent – RMC, which emphasises artistic development and emotional expression over a purely formal training, has become an incubator for musicians like Sonne, Erika de Casier, Smerz, ML Buch and Clarissa Connelly.
Sonne's latest album, Great Doubt, charts her evolution from classical training to electronic experimentation, blending viola, synthesizers and vocals into something both precise and affective.
