Jocelyn Morlock (born 1969)
Jocelyn Morlock was born in Saint Boniface, Manitoba, Canada. Her discovery of classical music came in late adolescence when she saw the movie Amadeus, which was released shortly before her 15th birthday. She later went on to earn a Bachelor of Music degree at Brandon University and a Masters and Doctorate of Musical Arts at the University of British Columbia. She lives in Vancouver.
Jocelyn Morlock’s website states that
Her music is inspired by birds, insomnia, nature, fear, other people’s music and art, nocturnal wandering thoughts, lucid dreaming, death, and the liminal times and experiences before and after death.
