Sara Chakarova is one of the true free spirits of the young European percussion scene. Whether performing solo or collaborating with others, she moves effortlessly between concert performance, sound art, voice, electronics, and improvisation—always remaining unmistakably herself.
At Überschlag 2026, she presents her own works, including pieces that have yet to be heard by audiences, opening the festival’s concert programme in the true spirit of Überschlag: beyond easy categorisation and with complete artistic freedom.
