Tuomas Norvio

Sound Designer

Tuomas Norvio is Helsinki-based composer, electronic musician and sound designer.
Having worked across various music genres and art forms since 2007, with collaborations
in contemporary dance, opera, classical music and interdisciplinary productions, Norvio’s
role is often to craft not just music but an entire sound atmosphere.

Norvio has worked with leading Finnish and international artists, with recent collaborators
including Tero Saarinen, Esa-Pekka Salonen, John Paul Jones, Simon McBurney and
Kimmo Pohjonen.

During his career, Norvio has recorded, mixed and produced more than 20 records.
Recently, he has released music with his duo with Hildá Länsman (debut album Dajan),
and with his solo project. In Norvio’s solo release, Efter Sol (2025), he deepens his
exploration of sound masses through electronics and acoustic instrumentals. In live
performance, the solo offers a spatial experience, often complimented by a durational
sound installation.

Norvio’s collaboration with Tero Saarinen Company began in 2018 as sound designer for
Breath (2018). Norvio has since designed sound and composed electronic music for
Transit (2020), Johanna Nuutinen’s Hz (2022) and most recently, in Study for Life (2025).
He is in permanent artistic residence at TSC Studio and mentors other artists taking part in
TSC’s annual sound residency programme. Norvio has designed the studio’s immersive
audio system by Genelec.

Norvio has been awarded the Äänisäde Prize (2018), the Teosto Prize (2011) and the Prix
Italia (2011).
