Sivan Cohen Elias is a composer-performer (b. Israel). Her work is cross-disciplinary, using the body, everyday objects, installations, technological interventions, and musical instruments to all constantly contribute to and disrupt one another’s domains. She looks to materials that appear in “in-between” places; places where contradictory impulses – performance, task, absurdity, tension, humor – operate simultaneously. Cohen Elias has received numerous international awards, residencies, and commissions, including Fromm Commission Award, Music Theatre Composition Competition Staatstheater Darmstadt, Akademie Schloss Solitude fellowship, Impuls Composition Competition. Her works have been commissioned, broadcast, and performed by ensembles and performers internationally, including Klangforum Wien, MusikFabrik, Dal Niente, and Jack Quartet, among many others. Festival appearances include Darmstadt Fereinkurse, Bludenz, Wien Modern, Witten, and Warsaw Autumn. She received her doctoral degree in composition from Harvard University and is currently Visiting Assistant Professor at the University of Iowa, where she teaches advanced composition and music technology.
