isa farah (they/she) is a heart-forward cellist, composer, and improviser blending microtonality and free improvisation, grounded in deep listening. Rooted in trans embodiment and ancestral fire, their work weaves ambient tenderness, rhythmic provocation, and feral string screams. Drawing from the Iranian Radif and extended techniques, isa explores in-betweenness as both a musical and political space—channeling grief, groove, and rupture into spaces of softness, devotion, and becoming.
