✨So thrilled to finally share a recital that’s just a month away—one that’s been close to my heart and a year in the making: 𝐖𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐏𝐨𝐞𝐭𝐫𝐲 𝐒𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬 — 𝐕𝐨𝐢𝐜𝐞𝐬 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐅𝐚𝐫 𝐄𝐚𝐬𝐭! Last year, I was honored to receive the Opportunity Fund from the City of Boston, which gave me the chance to curate an art song recital and collaborate with three wonderful singer friends. 🎉 We’ll be presenting this program next month in celebration of AAPI Heritage. The program features Chinese poetry translated into different languages, alongside beloved Chinese songs. 🎶 🎹 As a pianist curating this program, I was especially drawn to how Chinese poetry is set by both Western and Chinese composers across different languages. Working on this music felt like connecting different cultures—hearing pieces of home in new sounds, and finding familiarity in unexpected places. 💗 A special thank you to NEC Alumni News for the feature! The event is free, but registration is required—We’d love to see you there. ☺️ 📅 Date: May 8 (Friday) ⏰ Time: 7:00–8:30 PM 📍 Venue: Pao Arts Center 🔗 /events/2026/poetrysings

It is an honor to premiere this special piece, and we hope its message resonates with all who hear it.

(As if) Blindfolded, yet truth is glimpsed once more. The infinite signs of countless lives unfold, As light from distant peaks illuminates the barren—who will heed the call? Longing like eagles soaring a thousand miles, Pristine green stretches across the earth. Awakening the splendor of mountains and streams, Letting the winds devour grief, anger, and pain. Let mountains crumble, the waves roar—I stand unshaken, Fiercely preserving my essence. Flowing through vanishing thoughts, dreams, illusions, I seek myself within the palace of reflection. Dust scatters, misfortune unfolds everywhere, Humanity’s plight, its questions unanswered. In the fleeting instant of stepping away, I gaze upon half a life, utterly laid bare. With my voice, I resonate and awaken a tremor from within, Piercing the sky, illuminating the heart, Healing the past while upholding the present—achieving wholeness. Who leads me to flip my wings and soar? Through the endless dawn, No longer clinging to the mundane, I soar toward freedom. #classicalsinger #cantonese #nyc #newyork #hongkong #hkclassicalmusic #artsong
