[New Voice in New Music]

Hello All !!!

I have an exciting opportunity for composers on Mar 23, 02:30 PM EDT to 
meet and ask questions to chromatic harmonicist player Hon Ning Cheung.

This is a great way to learn about an uncommon instrument.  Come and 
join us and text us questions LIVE online.

I will also be holding a few spots to speak online to Hon Ning directly. 
   This is a great way to make connections with musicians.

I will also be gathering questions if you can not attend live.

We will be announcing a call for Fifteen-Minutes-of-Fame with chromatic 
harmonicist player Hon Ning Cheung during the meet and greet.

Vox Novus is calling for one-minute pieces composed for solo chromatic 
harmonica.  Selected works will be premiered for Fifteen-Minutes-of-Fame 
with harmonicist Hon Ning Cheung. The performance will happen online in 
the beginning of 2025.

PLEASE DM me with questions or participation requests.
I look forward to bringing this opportunity to the new music community!

-Robert Voisey

Hon Ning Cheung is a composer and chromatic harmonicist from Hong Kong. 
She is currently doing composition bachelor at Conservatorium Maastricht 
(NL) under the guidance of Prof. Vykintas Baltakas. Since 2019 she 
learned chromatic harmonica guided by Shing Hei Leung, later she was 
motivated to explore its timbral possibilities outside the standard 
harmonica repertoires. In her music, she searches persistently for 
uncertainty and fragmented narrative, inspired by nature, poetry and 
memory. Founder & composer of Nefelibata New Music Collective since 
2021, a group of musicians at Conservatorium Maastricht devoting to 
creating concert projects inspired by humans, nature, and life. She has 
been curating annual concert episodes with the collective musicians in 
hopes of expanding contemporary harmonica repertories in chamber music 
and collaborating actively with living composers abroad. Hon Ning has 
premiered harmonica works by Oswald Huỳnh, Kyohei Sugihara, Riccardo 
Perugini, Mario Pallas, Andy Janssen, and Tai Nakamura. In 2023, 
together with Nefelibata Sinfonietta and conductor Txemi Etxebarria, she 
brought the Dutch premiere of the violin concerto by Einojuhani 
Rautavaara with chromatic harmonica.
