Susanna Hancock is an Asian-American composer and bassoonist whose music
explores color, process, and acoustic phenomena. Plurality, ambiguity, juxtaposition, transience, and impermanence are currents that move throughout Susanna’s work as a reflection on identity and “place” - or lack thereof.

Susanna’s compositions have been performed by the JACK Quartet, ZAFA Collective, Metropolis Ensemble, and members of the St. Louis Symphony, among others. Susanna’s work has been recognized by ASCAP, New Music USA, Arts Council of
Hillsborough County, and other organizations.

Susanna is currently pursuing a doctoral degree at the University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music as an Albert C. Yates Fellow.
