Dr Trevor Wishart
Composer-in-residence, University of Durham.


Dr Trevor Wishart is a composer whose interests deal mainly with the human voice, in particular with the transformation of it and the interpolation by technological means between human voice and natural sounds. He has also written extensively on the topic of what he terms ‘sonicart’ and contributed to the design and implementation of software tools used in the creation of digital music; notably, the Composers’ Desktop Project. He was appointed as composer-in-residence at the University of Durham in 2006, and then at the University of Oxford Faculty of Music in 2010–11, supported by the Leverhulme Trust.
