experience, which is pleasant, airy, and enjoyable. She invites listeners and
performers alike to experience the beautiful melodies and poetic texts of songs.
In 2023, she starts on a concert journey with the theme Singing in Love, where she
drew artistic inspiration and power from different types of love (family and friendship
love, passionate love, altruistic love etc.). The vocal works of the programme have
been elaborately selected from different countries and periods (from the Baroque to
the Modern period). Languages include English, Italian, German, Chinese and
Korean. Through her voice enjoy boats drifting on the waves, the sheep lazily grazing,
the graceful swans and love stories. This is a great opportunity to appreciate the
charm of music from different countries, languages, and cultures.
