A one off opportunity to experience this show at Darebin Arts Centre on Friday 9 February, take pleasure in the new collaboration between Chinese-Australian composers Mindy Meng Wang 王萌 and Sui Zhen on the eve of the Lunar New Year to celebrate their album ‘Origin of You‘. Released through Music in Exile, this album is the debut record from these two auspicious Chinese-Australian composers intent on exploring sisterhood and human connection.
“I’m super excited to perform ‘Origin of You’ at Darebin Arts Centre, it means a lot to me. It’s a very special project between me and my best friend Becky, and the work is really close to our hearts and our personal experiences. I feel like we have been cared for and supported by Darebin Arts Centre in presenting this work, and it will be a perfect venue to bring such a personal project to a safe place to perform. This work combines story, memory, and music, both from China and from Western musical cultures. It’s a work that demonstrates the modern diversity of Australia, and I am very proud and excited that this work will be presented on the eve of the Lunar New Year here at the Darebin Arts Centre.” – Mindy Meng Wang 王萌
