Aliya Ultan is a cellist-composer-improviser from Brooklyn, based in Brooklyn. Her sound has been described as “fearless”, “haunting”, “cathartic”, and “seductive”, “–both orchestral and grunge”. Growing up in a car with her mother and sister, Aliya entered music as a means of survival and escape. With a passion for collaboration and interdisciplinary art, Aliya has participated in countless projects including regular appearances with Poncili Creacion (Theater and Puppet Collective - Puerto Rico), Young Boy Dancing Group (Dance Collective - Switzerland), and Yohsiko Chuma’s School of Hardknocks (Performance Collective - NYC). As an improviser, Aliya is found at the cross section of all things working with legendary bandleaders such as John Lurie of the Lounge Lizards, Douglas Ewart of the Art Ensemble of Chicago, and composer-performer Tyshawn Sorey to name a few. Her latest album, produced by master Randall Dunn, features herself and six close friends in a avant-garde rock trip under the name Seven Times Infinity.
