Stream Ellen Fullman & Theresa Wong's Harbors

August 2020

The collaborators' forthcoming release “draws inspiration from the soundscapes, stories and atmospheres that manifest around bodies of water that propagate exchange”

“With voice, the body is my instrument; with cello, the instrument is an extension of my body,” says musician and composer Theresa Wong, speaking to Julian Cowley in The Wire 439. Wong's longtime collaborator Ellen Fullman similarly blurs the lines between the musician, instrument and space, with her self-designed Long String Instrument – an installation of over forty strings spanning seventy feet in length.

Harbors was written in “foggy San Francisco bay” during a period working in residence at the Headlands Center For The Arts. It is released by Room40 on 14 August.
