Bonnie Miksch, a composer and performer whose music embraces multiple musical universes, creates both acoustic and electroacoustic works.  She is passionate about music which moves beyond abstract relationships into the boundless realm of emotions and dreams.

An avid consumer of musical possibilities, she strives to create coherent musical environments where diverse musical elements can coexist. Her computer music and vocal improvisations have been heard in Asia, Europe, Canada, and throughout the United States.

Current activities range from performing as a vocalist and laptop artist with Suddenly Listen, an experimental improvisation group based in Nova Scotia to composing a new work for the Chagall Trio. The Atlanta Artists Records recently released "man dreaming butterfly dreaming man", a work for violin and piano.

She received her B.M. in Composition from Syracuse University and her M.M. and D.M.A. in Composition with a cognate in computer music from the University of Cincinnati’s College-Conservatory of Music.
