Lisa Illean is an Australian composer of acoustic and acousmatic music, based in the UK. Her music has been praised for “exquisite quietness” and “compelling stillness”. She has conceived arcing, stilling, bending, gathering for strings, piano and electronics. The work reflects on an ongoing desire through human history for moments of kinship and tenderness that counter the immensity of the world we inhabit.
