Maureen Wolloshin is an oboist, improviser, researcher and composer. She is interested in the relationship between sound, colour, touch and improvisation. Maureen combines watercolour graphic score making with practices derived from Scottish and Arabic music. Her research explores the internal process and journey of the contemporary female improvising musician in Britain. Maureen’s improvising plays with the timbral range of the oboe and cor anglais. It draws on the tonal palettes of jazz, folk and contemporary music. Her piece, Learning to Live... again... was commissioned by Electric Medway in August 2020.
