Theresa will perform works from Practicing Sands , a collection of pieces for cello and voice which draws inspiration from the sounds of the natural world and sensations of sonic genetic memory. Combining improvisation, composition, alternative tunings, and extended techniques, the pieces stem from Wong’s ongoing question: “how can I rediscover the core of the cello as wood and string and hair, or even simply as a tree?” Practicing Sands was released in 2022 on Wong's imprint, fo'c'sle.
Theresa Wong is a composer, cellist, and vocalist active at the intersection of composition, improvisation, and the synergy of multiple disciplines. Her works include Fluency of Trees for solo cello and voice which premiered at the Other Minds Festival in 2022, She Dances Naked Under Palm Trees , commissioned by pianist Sarah Cahill for The Future Is Female project, and Harbors , co-composed with Long String Instrument inventor Ellen Fullman and chosen as one of The Wire’s top 50 releases of 2020. Recent commission include works for San Francisco Girls Chorus, Long Beach Opera, and Splinter Reeds. She has shared her work internationally at venues including Cafe Oto, Sydney Festival, and The Stone in New York City. More info at www.theresawong.org
