The Wong Janice

The Wong Janice is a cellist and composer of music at the intersection of ambient cello and meditation. The philosophy of her music (inspired by Buddhism, Taoism and the law of nature) is for her as the player and also for you, the listener: to be free.

By using the cello and other instruments processed through effect pedals and loop machines, The Wong Janice creates rich, layered soundscapes where melody and harmony seamlessly intertwine, offering an immersive, ambient experience. This unique approach invites introspection, moving beyond the expectations of traditional classical performance and allowing the listener to journey inward. She creates all her music ‘in the moment’ from an uncontrolled yet focused consciousness 'flow' state, channelling the music through herself as the ‘vessel’. Whether you call it intuitive or improvised, the intention is that the music is fluid and not bound by rules and what the composer once intended, but instead honouring what is present and relevant in the now.

Listeners have reported benefits such as calming of the nervous system, helping to fall asleep, increased clarity, and transformation of mood.

The Wong Janice has performed has performed in Australia, Spain, Germany and The Netherlands at everything from TEDxAmsterdam, Amsterdam Dance Event, Down The Rabbit Hole, Landjuweel, ecstatic dance, club nights, yoga retreats, cacao ceremonies, corporate events, conferences, private house concerts and weddings to online events such as Inner Peace Conference, Insight Timer Summit, corporate meditation concerts and regular live-streams for her community. While she loves performing, she spends much of her time in her studio, dedicating time to recording and publishing her music and courses online. With 50 million Spotify streams and counting, 50 thousand followers on Insight Timer and a growing YouTube presence, her biggest joy is helping so many people from all over the world and all walks of life.
