Gloria Yehilevsky

Gloria Yehilevsky is a London-based composer and improviser who integrates percussion performance with ongoing multimodal enquiry, resulting in a fluid cluster of activity. Her transdisciplinary practice extends from improvised vibraphone performance to collaborative projects that dissolve hierarchies and audience-artist divisions—shaping a dynamic, introspective and exploratory sound.

She won the PAS/Armand Zildjian award, Italy PAS Vibraphone competition, and is a Musical Merit protégé. She performed with the San Diego Symphony, World Percussion Group, and alongside members of the Bang on a Can All-Stars at MASS MoCA, where Steve Reich described her as ‘an extremely impressive percussionist… with an amazing combination of technical mastery and riveting energy.’ Her instigatory ethos led to co-directing and performing in Dreamerfly, and other stories (2021), an interdisciplinary work joining composition by bassist James Owston and animation by Shiyi Li, which won a Mid-Atlantic Arts USArtists award and was praised as ‘ethereal’ by The Guardian.
