HUG #2 w/ @fngmorsecode
Do you believe in life after hug?
Hugging feels both mundane and spiritual, everyday and cosmic.
Something happens when we wrap our arms around eachother. What is it?
Join Carla and friends in this investigative, camp (literally) and extremely open ended work in progress next week.

___________________________
Last summer, @sohipboston and @halfmoonensemble commissioned me to write a new work
“receive | repeat | restore | redeem” for baroque violins, chamber organ, and electronics!
After recording this piece and premiering it virtually, this amazing creative team has done so much work to put this beautiful program together. Combining art creation with new and historical music, there have been so many amazing forces behind this project that has spanned two years now, and I am so excited for our first live performance!! 💕

Hello friends! I am honored to say that I have been commissioned by the Women in Sacred Music Project (WSMP) to write a work for SATB choir & piano.
I have chosen to set Psalm 46.6 for my piece, "The Earth Melts." My piece will be premiered in the beautiful Daylesford Abbey in Pennsylvania tomorrow at 2 PM EST (7 PM GMT).
I am so extremely grateful to the incredible and hardworking choir, who have been taking great care with rehearsing my music over the past two months.
I am also incredibly excited to be on this roster with some other amazing works, featuring one by (one of my former YWCC instructors!!) Cynthia Folio!
Another huge thank you to Dr. Ted Latham, for putting this project together and graciously organizing rehearsals and this fantastic program.
Thank you as well to the lovely Erin Busch, director of the Young Women Composers Camp (YWCC)!

🎶🎻🎻🎻🎹🎧 COMMISSION PREMIERE: WEDS, JUNE 23, 8 PM ET
Hello friends!!
After a long hiatus of mostly composing, I have an announcement to make: I am so excited to share with you all that a few months ago, I was co-commissioned by The Halfmoon with SoHIP (Society for Historically Informed Performance) to compose an original work for the ensemble’s multimedia concert project “PrintWorks,” and we are opening for SoHIP’s annual summer concert series!
We are premiering *THIS WEDNESDAY at 8 PM ET*, and the full program will be streamed for free (donations encouraged) on Youtube, Facebook, Instagram, and SoHIP’s homepage. Link in bio to watch!
My piece, “receive | repeat | restore | redeem,” is for three baroque violins, chamber organ, and electronics, and the work will be featured in the PrintWorks concert, alongside some really fabulous animation by visual artist Alex Jaehyun Kim. It was recorded in the beautiful Roslindale Substation.
The Halfmoon is a collaborative baroque orchestra led by violinist and PrintWorks artistic director Emily Hale, and they are an absolutely incredible ensemble with some really astounding projects — it was an absolute honor to work with them! More info about the ensemble and the PrintWorks program can be found here: /
It would mean the world to me if you came to hear this project, and I really hope you enjoy! Can’t wait to hear your thoughts! 💖☺️
“Fear is overwhelming at the beginning of a new piece... hanging out and tolerating the pain and the fear of the unknown. But then a little phrase will come up. And then you get a little interested in that one little phrase. And at a certain point... you realize you are more interested than afraid. You are in this thing, whatever it is...
And fear becomes useless.”
- Meredith Monk, on Composing

It was an absolute honor to have my most recent work, “ARRIVALS AND DEPARTURES,” performed by the brilliant percussionist @clarawarnaar !
This piece is a personal response to the Trump administration’s July 6th plan (thankfully rescinded) to deport international students attending online classes in the US during the fall semester. It honors the story of my mother’s immigration from China to the US — and, for anyone who knows my current situation — reflects on my process applying for a student visa during Covid-19.
You can listen to Clara’s wonderful and creative recording of my piece here!

Thank you so much to every single member of @youngwomencomposers who has made this experience possible. I feel like a broken record here, but I really can’t express how much this community has meant to me over the past two years.
To my instructor Niloufar Nourbakhsh, who aided me in the process of getting this piece polished and gave me some truly valuable advice, to our extremely supportive mentors Melissa Dunphy, inti figgis-vizueta, and Flannery Cunningham, and, of course, our truly incredible founder and director, Erin Busch — you inspire me to always push myself to be a better musician, composer, and person.
And to all of my fellow composers at YWCC: the virtual setting could not stop us! Being with you all, even over zoom, was what truly made the experience so memorable. Love you all! ❤️
