Ana Reis (born August 18, 1977) is a Portuguese contemporary music composer,[1] writer, and visual artist.

Biography[edit]

Reis was born to film directors Antonio Reis and Margarida Cordeiro and raised in Lisbon.

Music career[edit]

Reis was mentored as apprentice, between 2004 and 2011, by musicologist and contemporary music pioneer Lima Barreto, who mentioned Reis as composer, in his thesis Estética da comunicação musical : a improvisação.[2]

Develops work as writer, composer and visual artist, and since 2020, under the name Czerny.
She started working in contemporary electronic improvised music in 1999, with the projects ZLKNF[3] and Hyaena Fierling,[4] having created 37 albums since 1999.

She is also active in filmography and visual arts, having contributed with music works to film soundtracks.[5][6] In 2017 she helped towards the re-issue of Antonio Reis' Poemas Quotidianos, that hadn't been re-published since 1967.

Radialist and fellow musician João Carlos Silva (Radio 4 Luas, Aveiro FM) has described Reis' musical work:[7]

The fact is that her work hardly – if ever – sounds derivative...Hyaena Reich isn’t someone to be mistaken by anyone else – actually, her highly superior learning is the kick-starter of the whole process, then using untraceable skills of her own. Kalahest is probably a new starting point, not a “but” in itself...Kalahest dissolves more predictability than gold, recreating sound matter over and over again. Just like Paracelsus, we have a problem – the container for Kalahest will always be limiting...the really fit vehicle for its listening being the thin air inside a refreshed and spacious room, pure hologramic sound- just to use a worn out cliché, the sound of freedom is here.

Writing[edit]

Since childhood Reis is a writer,[8] having created a prolific estate of written works in prose and poetry, awaiting publishing.All her writings are parallel to her autodidact studies in the fields of Philosophy and Religiology, under the perspective of Christianity and the Hermetic tradition.
