⚡Bio
Mercedes Krapovickas is an Argentine bandoneonist, composer, and sound artist based in Helsinki, Finland. Her artistic practice is rooted in tango, which she approaches as a flexible and evolving language rather than a fixed tradition.
Her work spans solo and ensemble performance, contemporary composition, and electroacoustic music, often combining acoustic bandoneon with electronics, movement, and spatial sound. She is particularly interested in embodiment, gesture, memory, and the physical relationship between performer, instrument, and space.
Mercedes performs internationally in diverse musical contexts, from tango concerts and contemporary music festivals to interdisciplinary performances and sound installations. In parallel, she publishes articles and develops research-based artistic projects that investigate extended bandoneon practices and new performance formats.
