She composes for various media and makes soundperformances and installations with instruments, objects and electronics. As a singer she has performed several new works for voice and live electronics. A fascination for a specific sound or an unusual instrument is often the inspiration for her to make something new.

on two solo dance performances and the composition
research project Chimera. Evelien has composed for
