The title and program of my recital “Crystalline Dreamscapes” was inspired by the refraction of light through crystals which produce a variety of different colors as a result. To me, each individual and unique combination of color can hold different and special meanings while also evoking a variety of emotions and feelings. Coupled with the use of different colored stage lighting, the program I’ve chosen follows this theme by presenting a diverse range of music from the early 18th century all the way to the 21st century while staying true to my artistic vision: sharing music that I love from a variety of different styles and backgrounds with my audience, inspiring and connecting with their hearts at a deep level where words alone cannot express.
As the great pianist, composer, and teacher Frederic Chopin once said: “I shall create a world for myself” — and so, I invite you to join and enjoy the dreamscape world I have created.
