Personal bio
Alexandra Hay is a composer, sonic artist and teacher originally from New Zealand, and began her DMA at Stanford in 2010 as a Fulbright Fellow. Her work often explores processes of gradual transformation: the unfolding of figures, timbres, and resonances that converge and disperse. She studied at the New Zealand School of Music/Victoria University in Wellington, and then the Freie Universität in Berlin under a DAAD scholarship. Her work has been performed by ensembles 175 East and Stroma (NZ), Duo Stump-Linshalm (Austria), Chronology Arts, The Song Company, and Ensemble Offspring (Australia); and in festivals Asia Pacific 2007, Nuovi Spazi Musicali (Italy) 2008, and in the 2010 ISCM World New Music Days. Alexandra was the recipient of the 2008 New Zealand Symphony Orchestra Todd Corporation Young Composer Award, and was the 2011 NZ National Youth Orchestra composer-in-residence. Her clarinet duo part/s is published by Waiteata Music Press. |
