Vivian Fung has distinguished herself as a composer with a unique and powerful compositional voice. Since earning her doctorate from The Juilliard School in 2002, she has forged her own approach often merging western forms with non-Western influences such as Balinese and Javanese gamelan and folk songs from minority regions of China. The New York Times has described her work as "evocative," and The Strad hails her Uighur-influenced music to be "as vital as encountering Steve Reich or the Kronos for the first time." Chicago Tribune recently described Fung‘s Yunnan Folk Songs as conveying "a winning rawness that went beyond exoticism." Vivian has several new commissions for 2011-2012. Visit www.vivianfung.net to learn more about her work and listen.
