Laura Intravia, also known as Flute Link, is an American instrumentalist, vocalist, and arranger. She is best known for her performances of video game music as a soloist previously on tour with Video Games Live.

Early life

Intravia was born and raised on Long Island, New York. As a child, she enjoyed video game music; since video game soundtrack albums were not yet popular or readily available, she began transcribing music in a simple notation program on her father's computer. By the time she began music theory classes in high school, she found that she excelled at dictation and ear-training exercises.[1] Intravia attended Ithaca College and graduated in 2009 with two Bachelor of Music degrees in Music Composition and Voice Performance.

Concert Work

Video Games Live

Since 2009, Intravia has been an instrumental and vocal soloist for Video Games Live.[2] She appeared on the Video Games Live televised PBS Special, performing on the "Chrono Trigger/Chrono Cross Medley," which was released on the accompanying album Video Games Live: Level 2.[3] She also appeared on Level 3 and Level 4 as an arranger, as well as performer. [4][5]

Pokemon Symphonic Evolutions

In August 2014, Intravia sang as a guest soloist at the world premiere of the new concert series Pokémon: Symphonic Evolutions, an official Pokémon project produced by Princeton Entertainment. The inaugural concerts were held in Washington D.C., featuring Junichi Masuda as a guest conductor.[6] She performed again the following month at the Mann Center.[7]

Albums

Laura has collaborated with Grammy award-nominated composer Austin Wintory on three occasions. In 2013, Intravia was one of the artists featured on Austin Wintory's album of remixed music from the stealth game Monaco: What's Yours is Mine. The album was released in conjunction with the game and OST.[8] In the same year, she arranged music from Journey for a piano sheet music book, published by Alfred Music Publishing. In 2014, Austin recorded the album with pianist Robert Thies, with vocals performed by Intravia on the final song "I Was Born For This."[9]

Intravia arranged Through Time and Space, a Chrono Trigger/Chrono Cross piano arrangement album in 2015, featuring pianist Brendon Shapiro. The album was produced by Tommy Tallarico and released in conjunction with the Video Games Live: Level 4 Kickstarter.[10]
