Episode 1 - Gelsey Bell
In the first episode of <i>Emerging Voices</i>, Dr Felicity Wilcox interviews composer, writer, singer, and multi-instrumentalist Dr Gelsey Bell inside the HERE Theatre in Soho, New York City. This interview was recorded on 13 January 2023 during the Prototype Festival, where Gelsey's experimental opera <i>mɔɹnɪŋ [morning//mourning]</i> premiered. <a href="https://gelseybell.bandcamp.com/album/m-n-morning-mourning" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://gelseybell.bandcamp.com/album/m-n-morning-mourning</a> <br /><br />Gelsey Bell is a singer, songwriter, and scholar - a composer-performer, teacher, and sound artist. She has been described by the New York Times as “one of New York’s most adventurous musicians” and the “future of experimental vocalism.” She performs regularly as a vocalist and multi-instrumentalist, culling from a wide range of techniques and styles to create her own performance works, to literally voice those of contemporary composers, and to explore improvisation. <a href="https://gelseybell.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://gelseybell.com/</a> <br /><br /><i>Emerging Voices</i> is hosted by composer and Senior Lecturer in Music and Sound Design at the University of Technology Sydney, Dr Felicity Wilcox.
