Ji Youn Kang (KR/NL)

Ji Youn Kang is a South Korean composer, performer and sound artist based in The Hague. She achieved her Master’s degrees in Sonology from the Royal Conservatoire in The Hague and in Composition from the Conservatorium van Amsterdam. Most of her pieces have been composed for both traditional and non-traditional instruments ranging from works for solo instruments to large orchestral pieces. One of her main interests lies in researching the relationship between musical and physical spaces that she has been exploring with a variety of multichannel systems such as the Acousmonium and Wave Field Synthesis systems. She is also active as a solo performer seeking for ways to combine three different sound areas on stage: acoustic instruments, analog and digital sound with DIY analog synthesizers and live processing on a laptop.
