Autor

Singer/songwriter/multi instrumentalist NYMPHYA is a Cinematic Art Pop artist who creates modern music for the ancient and mystical in you.She has garnered an international following for her alchemical Art pop music, which is a collage of eclectic textures, world beats and soaring vocals with mystical lyrics. "More of an immersion than a listening session" wrote Marc Farr of Rock and Roll Infinity. It's music that reminds you of the otherworld, the mystery, and the magical currents that flow throughout, covering territories of mysticism, magic, and the transpersonal.Prior to launching NYMPHYA, Valentina appeared throughout the United States as an opera singer (NYCO and SF Opera), actor (Magic Theater), performer and musician, guesting on numerous soundtracks for television, film and commercials (Time/Life Warner, IMAX, and Garfield), on multiple CD projects for recording artists, (Sky Cafe and Royal Fingerbowl) backing up John Cale (The Velvet Underground) on the Tonight Show, appearing on MTV with her group Screaming Divas, and opening for Todd Rundgren at the Fillmore in San Francisco, for George Benson at Villa Montalvo, and Dana Carvey at the Shoreline Ampitheatre.NYMPHYA has released four albums, with WHAT HAVE I FORGOTTEN? as a full 360 immersion experience that explores not only the unusual sonic juxtapositions of NYMPHYA'S Progressive Art Pop music, but also how each song relates to the ancient practice of spiritual alchemy. The companion book by the same name is available in hardback print or as an ebook.
