Inada, poet, vocals |
This program of Francis Wong compositions will be feature works for quartet and sextet featuring Wong with longtime musical co-conspirators Aoki, Jang, Kavee, Modirzadeh and Perea as well as interdisciplinary collaborations with Lim and Inada.
”I choose for my work to build community and to seek out how I, as an artist can meet the challenges that our community faces. In the Asian American community, the biggest challenge is continuity of culture and the impact of assimilation.
“Compositions
are vehicles for memory – improvisation keeps these memories alive and
vital.”
