[This text has been translated electronically] As a cellist and performer, Sonja Lena Schmid is familiar with both the classical repertoire and the latest musical trends at the interface with electronics and multimedia. From 2008 to 2019 she was a member of the internationally successful quartet Salut Salon. Her commitment to the interdisciplinary linking of different musical genres and art forms is exemplified in projects such as »Rauschen«, which she initiated with pianist Anne von Twardowski in 2014. Since 2019, Schmid has been working as a professor for ensemble and digital performance at the Musikhochschule in Trossingen.
