ITAKIRY · A Window Inward

Through her project ITAKIRY, singer Chiara Schönfeld gives voice to the subtle nuances of the human emotional landscape.

Amid clear melodies, organic grooves, and poetic depth, an intimate listening experience of quiet intensity unfolds. Composition and improvisation blend into a peaceful, melancholic soundscape, inviting the listener to pause and reflect.

Milestones to date include a total of four releases, two of which were in collaboration with the Dutch label SONNA RecordsRather Waves Than Lines (2025) & ITAKIRY (2022) – and a sold-out concert debutin the Netherlands at Club Nine in TivoliVredenburg (April 2024).
