anka draugelates
The vocal artist and composer Anka Draugelates sings in various ensembles. The winner of the Kulturförderpreis of the
City of Regensburg can be heard in international productions for dance, theater and film as well as improvisation
projects.
“She picks up the viola like a guitar, plays it like the drums and sings while she masters the bow. There is only one
person in the world who can do that: Anka Draugelates´s songs, compositions and improvisations burst with joy leading
the listener into imaginary spaces. The exuberant muscian delivers a full program, whether its rock or devine soprano.
She glides through styles with the greatest of ease, classic, ethnic, soul or “sing-a -songwriter”, to name a few. Anka
Draugelates captures sounds, rhythms and melodies, resonates with her voice and instruments, and following her paths
through the world of music, the singing woman both dismisses the viola and elevates it to somewhere that leads the
listener to a new version of themselves.”
