Vera V Almgren (Sweden, 1995) is a composer and audio engineer working with dream logic, the poetry of sound and organic textures. The physical and tonal qualities of sea shells, glass, wood, water, stone and other materials that can be turned into playable software instruments are the substrate of her practice. Specialized in sound spatialization and multichannel setups, her work explores imaginary spaces through tactile sonic details. In May 2026, her debut album I Det Vassa Ljuset was released on Istid Records.
Vera is currently studying her Master’s degree in electroacoustic composition at the Royal College of Music in Stockolm, and she has a background as a classically trained pianist and percussionist. Her journey into sound started with participing in Deep Listening meditations, which is still at the core of her practice.
Vera’s music has among others been played at Soundcinema Düsseldorf (Germany), Norberg Festival (Sweden), and Nordic Music Journeys Glasgow (UK). She is a member of Fylkingen, Konstmusiksystrar and a user of Elektronmusikstudion in Stockholm. In 2025, Vera received a Stim scholarship as well as a scholarship from Sverker & Birgittas Stipendiefond.
