Conversations at a Yum Cha Restaurant
This work is a part of 'Joy Luck Pub', which is a multi-movement collaborative work for flute, clarinet, violin, cello and piano.
The name of the project is based on Amy Tan's novel 'Joy Luck Club', and it came via the collaboration between a writer, four composers and five instrumentalists, funded by the Australian National Academy of Music.
I composed this movement based on the conversations and gossip overheard at a Yum Cha restaurant.
