🤎 Emersoil for SATB 信天游 Xintianyou, a folk tradition from my roots in northern Shaanxi, China. In this barren, rough landscape, the “Children of the Yellow Earth”黄土高坡 — these people are shaped by their resilience and open hearts. 🫶🏼🙏🏼@CorvusConsort @WhidAutumnFest

Spent four wonderful days in Devon as composer-in-residence at @WhidAutumnFest . It’s not every week I get to hear three new pieces performed. Hearing 150 children of Devon sing my new piece for the children of war, ‘Through the Tears.‘ was unforgettable! 😭❤️
