Cindy Lan is a violist, composer, and collaborative artist from Queens, NY. Since 2019, she has explored the combination of voice, strings, and electronics in her project ‘Breath & Bow Meditations’. Through these meditations, she seeks to understand facets of her emotional world as they manifest in looped strings, extended techniques, and their interplay with the human voice. She performed as a soloist with Orchestra Northern Arizona in 2021 and 2023. She is a 2023 recipient of the Queens Art Fund New Work grant for “Dots on Plates”, a viola concerto for string orchestra and percussion, and 2025 recipient for development of a forthcoming interdisciplinary work, “Sadness isn’t any louder than happiness” for dancers and musicians. Her string quartet, Ondine Quartet, is a 2024 Chamber Music America Ensemble Forward grantee. She performs with Isogram and is a contributing choreographer and performer for “Antonym: the opposite of nostalgia” by Sugar Vendil, and performed at National Sawdust, Lincoln Center, and Movement Research at Judson with Isogram. She is a pedagogue with over a decade of experience, and the Executive Director of the Greenwich Village Orchestra. She holds an MM in Viola Performance from the Eastman School of Music, and a Bachelor of Arts from Skidmore College.
