About this Event

Artist Biography

Dorothy is a (toy) pianist, improviser, and sound artist. A new-music advocate, she enjoys exploring experimental repertoire and new sounds on the piano, prepared piano and toy piano. Dorothy is part of the creative studio Chromic Duo (Concert Artist Guild), blending toy piano, electronics, storytelling and creative technology into genre-fluid performances, immersive installation and Augmented Reality soundwalks, and reimagining public spaces as interactive soundscapes. As a founding member of chamber collective ensemble mise-en, she has premiered, performed and recorded new works by composers worldwide. Past appearances include performances at Carnegie Hall (New York, USA), Lincoln Center (New York, USA), Celebrity Series (Boston, USA), Bösendorfer Saal (Vienna, Austria), BEXCO (Busan, Korea), Kapellet Produktion (Stockholm, Sweden).

Dorothy values promoting and collaborating with multidisciplinary artists and composers for new projects and premieres, to create programs that are responsive yet intimately reflective. Recent collaborators include the Smithsonian National Museum of Asian Art, the MIT Museum, National Gallery of Art, Purdue University and the New York Philharmonic, with the support from NYSCA, the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council, Chamber Music America, the Baryshnikov Arts Center, and the Barlow Endowment.
