Marie Schreer is a musician whose work explores the expressive edges of sound — through the violin, her voice, and the dynamic spaces between composition and spontaneity. Her practice grows from a deep curiosity about how music comes to life, how it moves beyond notation, and how it can communicate on levels both subtle and visceral.
Marie’s artistic journey has been defined by moving between precision and risk, structure and freedom — weaving exacting control with bursts of raw energy, and balancing intricate detail with spontaneous expression. Working closely with composers and drawing on her own compositions and improvisations, Marie shapes music that is as much about dialogue and connection as it is about sound itself.
Her creative life spans a broad range of musical settings, from chamber groups to experimental ensembles, where openness and trust foster rich exploration. Marie’s playing invites listeners into a space of shared experience, where the boundaries between performer, composer, and audience can become porous and fluid.
At the heart of her artistry lies a search for articulating the unspoken, immediacy, and emotional truth. Whether performing in experimental groups, chamber ensembles or as a soloist, Marie invites listeners into a shared space where the boundaries between performer, composer, and audience become fluid — a place alive with openness, risk, and possibility.
