Co-commissioned by the Virginia Arts Festival, Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, La Jolla SummerFest, and Chamber Music Northwest in Portland (Oregon), supported by the Meet The Composer’s Commissioning/USA program, my trio Night Thoughts is a lyrical tone poem scored for flute, cello and piano, premiered on April 28, 2004, at the Virginia Arts Festival. The inspiration for this work comes from the ancient Chinese poem “Night Thoughts” written by a great poet, Li Po, of the Tang Dynasty (618-907): On couch bright moon shone,Thought frost on ground foamed,Raised head facing bright moon,Lowered head dreaming of home.(Trans. Chen Yi)—Chen Yi.
