humanitarian is an important pioneer in American

Music. Internationally acclaimed, for four decades

she has explored sound, forging new ground for

herself and others. Through improvisation, electronic

music, ritual, teaching, and meditation she has

created a body of work with such breadth of vision

that it profoundly affects those who experience it,

and eludes many who try to write about it. Whether

performing at the JFK Center in Washington DC, in

an underground cavern, or in the studios of West

German Radio, Oliveros commitment to interaction

with the moment is unchanged.

Oliveros has built a loyal following through her

concerts, recordings, publications, and musical

compositions. She has provided leadership within

the music community, from her early years as

the first Director of the Center for Contemporary

Music (formerly the Tape Music Center at Mills)

and director of the Center for Music Experiment

during her 14-year tenure as professor of music

at UC San Diego to acting in an advisory capacity

for organizations such as the National Endowment

for the Arts, New York State Council for the Arts,

and many private foundations. She now serves

as Distinguished Research Professor of Music at

Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and Darius Milhaud

Composer in Residence at Mills College.
