Hannah works & plays in music, sound, audio-visual, performance and teaching.

A 'Cellist, involved in improvisation and experimental music her playing makes pathways into noise and micro-tonality, as well as standard harmonic aspects of the 'Cello, finding spaces where melody, texture, rhythm & tonality blur. She plays at times with traditional sensibility, and at others times treats the instrument as a collection of parts to be re-analysed.

Her practice has developed from studying western classical music, cross -arts collaborations, making sound for theatre, working with bands and jazz oriented music and forays into Indian classical music, live-art & street performance. She is informed by interests and further studies in recording/mixing, creative group practice, physicality, pedagogy, natural law & sound healing.
