Edward Wright is a UK based composer who was born in Buckinghamshire in 1980 which makes him very old to some people and not all that old to others. He completed a practice based PhD in music in 2010, focusing on combining electroacoustic and instrumental forces with Professor Andrew Lewis at Bangor University.

His work is mainly focused towards the electroacoustic end of the musical spectrum although he writes for and plays ‘real’ instruments as well. Highlights include; performances overseas including mainland Europe and the U.S.A., ‘mention’ in the Prix Bourges for his piece Con-Chords, a number of classical commissions, and airplay on BBC Radio 1 and S4C television. Ed also curates the Oscilloscope concert series and performs as part of the electronic trio Accretion Entropy.

Ed lives in North Wales with Emma, their daughter Alena, and finds it very hard to write about himself in the third person.
