Cellist Okkyung Lee is one of the most dynamic forces in improvised music today, a fearless and powerful performer whose
playing incorporates a love of noise, extended technique and elements from the outer fringes of contemporary composition.
A native of Korea, Okkyung Lee has been developing her own voice in a contemporary cello performance and improvisation.
Using her classical training as a springboard, she incorporates jazz, sounds, Korean traditional music, and noise with extended
techniques.
