Hello! I’m Rylee Short, a composer and horn player based in Chicago. I create multidisciplinary works that blend composition, performance, and experimental sound art, and I enjoy weaving spoken word, poetry, dance, and video into live practice. I’ve been active in this field since 2008, exploring how collaboration across disciplines transforms individual voices into collective, evolving performances. I’m passionate about live collaboration and the ways ensemble contexts shift artistic expression. I’m also pursuing film scoring and aim to express ideas through sound art written for the spoken word, always seeking new ways to bridge music, language, and image.…Hello!
