Nine years... That is how long it took to let the ideas, gestures, and sounds infuse. 🌿
Many remember her creations and concerts between 2012 and 2017 in Europe. This fertile period laid the foundation for all of her current work. After this long journey of artistic research, the album "Arbre Nuage" (released by L'Empreinte Digitale) marks her first major return.
王瀅絜 Wang Ying-Chieh and TPMC invites you to celebrate this unbreakable bond between past and present at her concert on May 22nd in Paris. A precious moment to weave back the thread of musical memory. 🙏

Natures for 5 musicians, electronics, shadow, light and gesture
Location
Cité de la Musique (4 rue du Bernard Bois, 13001 Marseille)
Théâtre de Vanves (12 rue Sadi Carnot, 92170 Vanves )
Conservatoire Boris Vian (3 rue Pierre de Bayard, 44600 Saint-Nazaire)
Description
What if music were not just what we hear, but also what we breathe and what we see? With *Natures*, composer Lin-Ni Liao opens the doors to a secret garden inspired by the poetry of Emily Dickinson.
Conceived as “a door that is always open,” the work offers a 50-minute immersive experience in which silence resonates just as much as the music.
On stage, four musicians from the Cairn Ensemble (piano, percussion, guitar, and accordion) and an erhu player (a two-stringed Chinese fiddle)—Ying-Chieh Wang—engage in a dialogue with electronic sounds (Lin-Ni Liao, sound engineering by Alexis Baskind) and sculptural lighting (Pauline Falourd). Here, the shadow of the instrumental gesture becomes as essential as the sound itself, shaping space-time within soundscapes of infinite delicacy.
The title *Natures*, in the plural, refers to the convergence of the essential natures of each element and each performer at the heart of this production. It reveals the uniqueness of an approach in which the musical languages of East and West come together to form a single breath.

Bagatelles pour Nouvel An
Location
Musée Cernuschi
Paris
Description
As part of the Chinese New Year weekend, composer
Lin-Ni Liao imagines, together with guitarist
Alice Letort and percussionist
David Joignaux, a dialogue between her
Bagatelles and the museum’s collections.
With her guitar, Alice Letort pays tribute to the koto (Japanese zither) and other string instruments presented in the permanent collections. The large tam-tam evokes drums and bronze objects through their materiality. These musical dialogues using contemporary instruments invite reflection on the music of ancient China.
These musical interventions, followed by a moment of exchange with the audience, awaken curiosity and imagination in both young and old.
As Debussy suggested in his musical transcriptions of the Far East, human imagination always transcends borders — geographic, historical or cultural.

About the project
Pages électriques extends Christelle Séry’s solo research into amplified and electric guitar practices, exploring new contemporary repertoire beyond established works such as Vampyr! (Murail) or Trash TV Trance (Romitelli). The project focuses on sound texture, mass effects, temporal diffusion, and expanded instrumental expression.
