Ellen Fullman (b. Memphis, Tennessee, 1957) is a composer known principally for music she wrote for the long-string instrument, an instrument she invented. Fullman studied sculpture at the Kansas City Art Institute. She has performed with the Deep Listening Band and Paul Panhuysen.
Tuned in just intonation, the long-string instrument is played by walking along the length of 90-foot-long strings and rubbing them with rosined hands. This produces longitudinal vibrations, and her music explores the nodes of vibration. Her early pieces were notated with choreography.
