Lucie Vítková is a composer, performer and improviser of accordion, harmonica, voice and dance from the Czech Republic.

She graduated in accordion performance at Brno Conservatory in 2010 and composition at Janáček Academy of Music and Performing Arts in Brno (CZ) in 2013. During her Master Degree, she studied at Royal Conservatory in The Hague (NL) and at California Institute of the Arts in Valencia (USA). She has studied with Martin Smolka, Jaroslav Šťastný, Martijn Padding, Gillius van Bergijk and Michael Pisaro. Along with her study of music she used to teach tap dance at the Faculty of Theatre of JAMU. She is member of the Ensemble Marijan, Dunami, Brno Improvising Unit, Dust in the Groove and Prague Improvisation Orchestra.

Vítková’s work pursues two lines of enquiry: in the compositions she focuses on sonification (compositions based on abstract models derived from physical objects), while her improvisation practice explores characteristics of discrete spaces through the interaction between sound and movement.

Recently, she has become particularly interested in the question of social relationships in music and their implications for the structural organization of musical pieces. This has also become the subject of her doctoral research, in which she explores the work of Christian Wolff.
