Contemporary composer Jenny Xiong unpacks her latest work exploring seasons, silence, and mortality through the lens of Asian art and philosophy. Expect meditations on Japanese "ma" (the power of negative space) and Chinese "wu wei" (the intuitive flow between sound and silence) woven into haunting flute and piano compositions.
