“This record can be treated as an index of my musical visions; it showcases my cultural roots from a mysterious land in the deep Northwest of China to adventures in new musical styles from my experiences in the UK and Australia. It is an honest dialog between me and you, the listener, started by sharing my musical emotion & unreserved consciousness in the most organic way I know - improvisation.” - 𝑴𝒊𝒏𝒅𝒚 𝑴𝒆𝒏𝒈 𝑾𝒂𝒏𝒈 王萌

𝑀𝑖𝑛𝑑𝑦 𝑀𝑒𝑛𝑔 𝑊𝑎𝑛𝑔 王萌 is a versatile Chinese/Australian Composer and performer, masterfully trained on the traditional Chinese instrument, the Guzheng. Born and classically trained in China, Mindy studied Western Musicology in the UK before migrating to Australia. Excelling in experimental music and improvisation, she is pioneering a new sonic direction for the Guzheng.

Mindy’s work explores the fertile space between traditional and contemporary practices, bringing Chinese traditions into new Western musical contexts, including jazz, western classical, and electronic genres. She is an influential figure in a global movement where Chinese musicians are redefining and reinvigorating their musical traditions.

Mindy’s long-term vision is to create a strong voice for young female composers and artists of Chinese heritage, and more importantly, to create a deeper and reciprocal musical connection between Australia and China. Mindy has collaborated with many high-profile artists including the Gorillaz and Regurgitator and has frequently performed in significant festivals, shows and venues in Australia, China, the UK, Ireland, Spain, Portugal, Belgium, and France.
