Her artistic practice centers on experimental music, transdisciplinary creation, and improvisation in its many forms. With a focus on alternative formats, she develops immersive productions that explore experimental sound across disciplines and contexts — driven by a deep commitment to collaborative creation and socially engaged practice. Her curiosity leads her to engage with a wide range of artistic approaches, including contemporary dance, physical theatre, and contact improvisation.
In 2021, she founded the company IPSO as a utopian laboratory for experimentation, horizontality, and radical listening across disciplines.
As a clarinetist, Rebecca navigates between her solo project for bass clarinet and electronics and long-term collaborations, notably her duo with Luz Gonzalez (live electronics). She also performs regularly as a guest with ensembles such as Collettivo_21, Ensemble Musikfabrik, Collegium Novum Zürich, Ensemble Vortex, and HANATSUmiroir.
Alongside her experimental practice, she is active in the jazz and folk music scenes. In 2018, she co-founded the explosive Tzupati Orchestra, a Balkan music band, and since 2024 has been collaborating with Chilean singer Josefa Ibarra in a folk latino/cumbia project.
Rebecca has appeared at festivals including Darmstädter Ferienkurse für Neue Musik, Winterthurer Musikfestwochen, Klangspuren Schwaz, zoom-in Festival, Festival Musica Strasbourg, Sonorities Festival Belfast, Neue Musik Rümlingen, Dresdner Tage der zeitgenössischen Musik, Neue Musik St. Ruprecht, and Musikfestival Bern — where she conceived and led the sound walk inSENSé in 2022 — as well as Mixtur Festival, where she will present her debut album with Luz Gonzalez in 2026.
She has held artist residencies at Biennale Mediterraneo Archipelago in Palermo (2022), Microtonal Music Studio in Helsinki (2023–24), Leveld Kunstnartun (2025), and Cité des Arts de Paris (2026).
Rebecca holds a Bachelor of Arts and a Master’s degree with honors in Music Performance from the Bern University of the Arts, where she studied with Ernesto Molinari, specializing in bass and contrabass clarinet. She continued her artistic training in contemporary music at the Hochschule für Musik Basel.
Her work has been supported by scholarships including the Hirschmann Stiftung (2022), Fondation Nicati-de-Luze (2022–23), and the Ammann Falb Stipendium (2023). Her solo project was nominated for the Berlin Prize for Young Artists in 2024.
Rebecca has collaborated with artists such as Éliane Radigue, Tristan Perich, Nicole Lizée, Clara Iannotta, Georg Friedrich Haas, Simon Steen-Andersen, Basak Senova, Ilan Volkov, Emilio Pomarico, Egle Oddo, Shizuyo Oka, Carl Rosman, Franziska Baumann, Frank Gratkowski, Joëlle Léandre, Alexandra Grimal, Brian Archinal, Deborah Walker, and Françoise Rivalland, among others.
