Hello, I’m Tamara van der Laarse, an Amsterdam based electronic music composer, educator, soundartist and creative producer. My practice spans different disciplines, including producing and directing sound and music, creative production, performing, photography, djing, video and graphic design. My work is moving between music, soundart, performing arts, fashiondesign, tutoring and creating autonomous work.
I can help you for creating, composing and producing a music concept for/with:
– music for (live) fashionshow, catwalk (couture / non couture)
– sound / music for art performances, (site-specific) installations
– collaborating with choreography / dancers / movement direction
– sound for short moving image pieces
Some of my work and performances have appeared at art nights, club- and museum nights and many live fashionshows. Since 2013 I’ve been an artistic music director at reknown art & fashion academies for coaching young fashion talent and taking care of the music direction of group-, soloshows.
See here an overview of fashion shows.
