Chorégraphe, Compositeur.rice, Interprète
Alejandro Sajgalik is a choreographer and composer based in Montreal. His work explores our metaphysical uprootedness and the bewitching power of technology. Coming from a background in architecture, he started creating performances that combine dance, electroacoustic music and a dramaturgy inspired by epics and mysticism.
In Montréal, he has presented his solos N'importe où hors du monde (2018), Cantos para los insaciables (2019), et Materia Prima (2022). He premiered his first electroacoustic sonata Novae I (2024) for organ and voice at SOUNDWICH XVIII. His work has been supported by the Canada Council for the arts, the Conseil des arts du Québec, and the Conseil des arts de Montréal. He is currently studying electroacoustic composition at the Conservatory of Music of Montréal with Louis Dufort.
