Her work
is with letters,
with secret letters.
Letters that were not written
for generations.
She must write them
over, and over, and over.
(Ursula Le Guin, The Writer On, And At, Her Work)
The Wave In the Mind brings three of Melbourne’s most exciting musicians together in an evening of improvisation and musical storytelling. Helen Svoboda (jazz/contemporary double bass & voice), Mindy Meng Wang (traditional Chinese/contemporary guzheng) and Katie Yap (baroque/contemporary viola & voice) are each known for their genre-bending practice and their compelling performances. Improvisation is often defined as live creation, but it leans on memory, shaped and woven in the moment. Through solo, duo, and trio works and improvisations, Helen, Mindy, and Katie bring their diverse musical and cultural backgrounds together to remember something beautiful, astounding, and new.
Mindy Meng Wang, guzheng; Katie Yap, viola; Helen Svoboda, double bass/vocals
