Shui Mo’s 20 November Bath Spa University iteration programme blank canvas features Yuting Chang’s (Taiwan) reflection on impermanence in her Kintsugi, Eunseog Lee (Korea/UK)’s Shaking Mountains, Roaring Rivers (2024), features special narrator Niall Hoskin. Michael Ellison’s (USA/Turkey) shamanic-rhythms-inspired Doğu Invocation (2024/25), and Yingying Wen’s Camel Xiáng (2024) evoke the arid landscapes of Sichuan province, Korea and Xinjiang. Zhihong Guo’s The Vanishing Parasol Leaves (2024) also reflects on impermanence, with the composer’s evocation of the sound of wind, and fleeting timbres.
