Thijs van Vuure

Thijs van Vuure studied biology and philosophy at the Vrije Universiteit (Amsterdam). After his master's degree in biology, he studied instrumental performance and music composition at the Hogeschool voor de Kunsten (Utrecht), and fine arts at the Rietveld Academy (Amsterdam).
​​
Over the last years, Thijs specialised in composing, arranging, sounddesign and music direction for theatre and on a regular basis he performs on stage with variable instruments and styles, depending on the concept and context of the performance. Besides this he creates projects where art, philosophy and science and their reciprocal influences are a central theme. Among others he makes site responsive performances and installations as a part of Collectief Walden, an interdisciplinary collective which performs (inter)nationally.

Previously at ITA he worked on the music for The Hours (2021) and Penthesilea (2023). In season 23|24 he is making the music for Prima Facie and is composing as well as live performing the music for The Laws.
