Ilza Nogueira (born December 25, 1948)[1] is a Brazilian composer, music educator and musicologist with specialty in the area of music analysis.

Biography

Ilza Nogueira was born in Salvador, Bahia. She studied composition under Ernst Widmer at the School of Music and Performing Arts of the Federal University of Bahia. After graduation in 1972, she won a scholarship from the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) and continued her studies in composition at the Academy of Music in Cologne (1974–1977) with Mauricio Kagel. She also obtained Master of Arts (1983) and Doctor of Philosophy (1985) degrees from the State University of New York at Buffalo (USA), where she studied under Lejaren Hiller and Morton Feldman. After completing her studies, she took a position teaching music at the Federal University of Paraíba where she retired from the faculty in 1998.[2][3]

The majority of her compositions are in chamber music with a predilection for mixed groupings with voice. Her works have been included in all recognized venues of contemporary music in Brazil, such as the Biennial of Contemporary Brazilian Music, Encounters of Latin American Composers and Performers, International Encounters of Female Composers, Panorama of Brazilian Music Now and the Festival Virtuosi.

Nogueira is a senior scholar of the National Counsel for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq) and a Member of the Brazilian Academy of Music (holding chair n. 27).[4] As a musicologist, Nogueira writes books, articles and critical reviews on contemporary music, focusing on Bahian composers. Her research project “Historical Landmarks of Contemporary Composition in Bahia” [5] runs three series of publications: 1) critical editions accompanied by analytical essays; 2) theoretical essays accompanied by critical reviews; 3) web catalogues.

In November 2014 Ilza Nogueira was elected President of the Brazilian Academy of Music Theory and Analysis - TeMA. Her Curriculum Vitae may be accessed at.[6][7]
