Agnès Palier

Agnès Palier is a French vocalist and improviser whose artistic language brings together experimental voice, movement and interdisciplinary performance. Beginning with classical singing, chanson and jazz, she developed a distinctive approach to non-idiomatic improvisation and extended vocal sound.

Her projects have explored relationships between voice and poetry, dance, visual art and video performance. She has also studied overtone singing, percussion, physical theatre and body-oriented practices that inform her approach to vocal gesture. Creative Sources documents her voice within its experimental recording catalogue, reflecting a career devoted to listening and the expressive possibilities of the body.
