One year ago this weekend I had the immense joy of performing in iSing! Suzhou’s North American premiere concert Echoes of Ancient Tang Poems with the Philadelphia Orchestra at the Kimmel Center and Alice Tully Hall! To bring these new works across the globe after premiering them in China, and to sing them this time with the love of my life, was a momentous and heartwarming way to welcome in 2023. 📸 @margoreedstudio
