Encounters with Contemporary Women Composers
by Theresa Sauer
The World of Linda O'Keefe:
Color, Concept, and Composition...
"In 2008, Linda, a Dublin born composer, was in Chicago experimenting with building her own instruments, including small synthesizers.
She started to compose music for these new instruments. In the past, her works were primarily based on manipulated recorded sounds and
vocal performances. She had worked with instrumentalists whose backgrounds were in jazz and the idea of composing in the "traditional"
sense was never part of her training."

Capturing the Energy of a Dynamic Element
by Christine Madden
"Sound design by Linda O'Keeffe combines the music of Rory Pierce and David Yoken into what she terms "sound sculptures".
Odd to think of fluid music as something with rigid mass and form for this piece in particular, but the overall effect worked
something like a fountaine, an intangible play of sound. "There's a sense of water in all the music" says Yurick (choreographer) "
