I recently traveled to Qingdao, China to perform in a concert with Momento Virtuosi, an ensemble founded by Yang and Olivia. The concert consisted of a variety of solo and chamber pieces. I performed Fauré's Sicilienne, Op. 78, and the final movement of the Brahms Piano Quartet in G minor. The second half featured Tchaikovsky's Serenade for strings and the Bach double violin concerto. The trip was quick, fast-paced, and a wonderful experience. I was so honored to be able to meet and play with so many great musicians, and I look forward to next time!
