Zosha Warpeha is an NYC-based composer working in a meditative space at the intersection of contemporary improvisation and folk traditions. Weaving together her voice and Hardanger d’amore, a resonant-stringed relative of the Norwegian Hardanger fiddle, she explores transformations of time and tonality through long-form improvisations. Her current solo work is informed by the cyclical forms, rhythmic elasticity, and the physical momentum of Nordic folk music. Warpeha's debut album, silver dawn, will be released on Relative Pitch Records in May 2024.
