Today is the day.
Breath and Brilliance: Mendelssohn Recast is officially out on Azica Records.
Almost two and a half years ago, Christine, Gwendolyn, and I recorded this album and have been counting the days until its release. It is now available on all streaming platforms.
I have many people to thank. My friends who performed and poured their hearts into this recording. Azica Records for trusting me as a newly signed artist with four albums already in the pipeline. Matt Carr for recording and helping me produce the album. My manager Brian for all the legwork behind this release. Jiyang Chen for always making us look beautiful. Don Nguyen for his brilliant graphic design work. SJSU School of Music for allowing us to record on campus, and our page turners Hiroko Mizuno and Anastasia Goldin. Thank you all!
Please give it a listen and let us know what you think. Link in Bio.
My personal arrangements will be available for purchase at the start of January 2026. I will spend the next couple of months editing and cleaning the scores so they are selling quality.
What a wonderful day ❤️

🎉💿 Release Day 💿🎉
Thrilled to finally share my new album ‘Dialogue: Debussy & Schumann’ with you!
It’s an invitation to experience Debussy’s and Schumann's intimate dialogue and I hope their intertwining musical worlds resonate with you as deeply as they have with me.
Thank you so much to @kevinahfat , my wonderful artistic partner; to @mcarrsound , our sound magician; to @grittanicreative for beautiful visuals of the album; and to the fantastic team at @orchidmusicgroup for helping bring this project to life. And heartfelt thanks to @jclewi , my family, and dear friends for all the support along the way ❤️
