October 29, 2023 - Violin Extravaganza, Baltimore, MD, United States
In collaboration with Qiao Dan, we commissioned composers from Peabody to write a piece featuring her violin. I organized the concert and handled the logistics with Dan Qiao to host her and her violin in the Baltimore area. The composers met with Dan Qiao several times in advance via Zoom and phone calls to discuss the boundaries and creative possibilities that the violin can explore through music.

The featured composers are Young-Jun Lee, Yan Fang, Zac Fick-Cambria, Zhitao Lin, Michael Mills, and Baicheng Jiang.
