Kristine Dizon: Hello, my name is Kristine Dizon and I'm the CEO and founder of The Modern Artist Project. Today, I'm with Kirsten Milenko, an Australian composer and conductor based in Paris. Her music embodies acoustic and electronic settings of an immersive and beautifully strange nature grounded on spectral portraits. Her work as a conductor began as an extension of composition evolving to reform the relations of imaginary to concrete realizations of musical gesture across a diverse repertoire. She completed her composition studies at the Royal Danish Academy of Music and the Sydney Conservatorium of Music where she received the 2016 Ignaz Friedman Memorial Prize for Excellence in Composition. She's currently studying the 2022-2023 Cursus Program on Composition and Computer Music at IRCAM. In 2019, she was awarded the Roche Young Commission by the Artistic Director of the Lucerne Festival, Wolfgang Rihm.
