Refelctings: When China meets Latin America
Collaborating with Wu Man in bringing together Mexican instruments with her pipa has been a very fun experience. The color and texture is great! We started with lots of curiosity about the sounds, tunings, scales and range. It was very pleasing to see that our curiosity was matched by that of the audience. As we walk to the sanctuary of St Michael’s by the Sea on May 21st for our most recent performance, curiosity was still a big part of it.
