Flutes and Horns – Journey to a Joyful Life

I am glad to accept the commission from Chiasong Ensemble to arrange five musical pieces for their concert. The selected pieces are “I Have a Dream,” “Dancing Queen,” and “Mamma Mia” from Mamma Mia!, the theme song from New York, New York, and “Wish Under the Meteor” from Snow Wolf Lake.

This concert, titled “Flutes and Horns – Journey to a Joyful Life,” is specially designed for flute and horn players from Chiasong Ensemble, featuring guest singers and percussionists. It will take place at the Chiayi City Concert Hall (Chiayi, Taiwan) at 2:30 PM on December 1, 2024.

This is my first time collaborating with them, and I sincerely hope the concert will be a success. If you have free time and in the Chiayi area, please come to the concert for supporting Chiasong Ensemble. Thank you! Tickets are available on the Era Ticket System.
