i’m Daijana Wallace. it’s pronounced day-on-a (day-on-a, like “spending a day on a beach”). I’m in the Wichita area composing, teaching cello privately, and figuring out when to build my next mechanical keyboard.

If you’re looking for my bio you can find it here.

After a long stint of working on various projects from August 2024-February 2025 I am taking a small (but well needed) hiatus from writing. I will be back later this year with plans for a cello octet, something for solo viola, and something incredibly special that’s not ready to be announced.

If you’re programming anything of mine and would like to workshop, feel free to message me! If you’ve programmed something of mine please drop a program here!
