Thuon Burtevitz, (born 27 August 1973) is a German composer.
Born in Halle (Saale), Burtevitz first studied philosophy at the Technical University of Dresden, then changed to the Hochschule für Musik Carl Maria von Weber as a student of Jörg Herchet.
She continued her studies at the Studio für Elektronische Musik [de] and as a master student of Dimitri Terzakis at the Hochschule für Musik und Theater "Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy" Leipzig.
[1] Burtevitz developed her own tuning system for the piano work "Axia" (ancient Greek: "fundamental value") which lasts a good one and a half hours.
With this tuning system a strict order of tones is created, which nevertheless remains open to infinity.
