Wendy Chu will perform Lotus Fantaisie, a dance on the lyra choreographed in collaboration with her mentor Kris Olness, and inspired by the heroes and stories of Wuxia, the contemporary Chinese literary genre of martial arts fantasy. Music is based on themes from the soundtrack of The Mysterious Lotus Casebook by Ivyan Yan and Jie Nan, as well as Senbonzakura by Kurousa P., in an original arrangement by Grammy Award winner Keiko Tokunaga, artistic director and violinist of the INTERWOVEN ensemble. String trio will also feature Hikaru Tamaki on the cello and Andy Lin on the Erhu. (Mr. Lin's alternate is violist Andrew Gonzalez)
