Space Oddity from Quest for Freedom
Nai-Ni Chen and The Ahn Trio perform Quest for Freedom.
The work is inspired by the personal experience of the artists. Both Nai-Ni Chen and the Ahn sisters are immigrants and left their native country to find freedom. Freedom to learn, and to perform and to create art. Quest for Freedom expresses the roller coaster of emotions that arise when leaving your family, friends, and land to embrace your dreams and new land.
Music includes works by Kenji Bunch, Prince, Pat Metheny and the newly commissioned, Undercurrent, by Gerald Chenoweth. It is a feast of magical dances to the eyes and captivating music to the ears. Timely and beautiful.
