"artiste étoile" of Lucerne Festival 2025, Winnie Huang invites the audience to a collaborative exploration of sounds, movements, and music.
Lucerne Forward Festival 2021: Composer Charlie Sdraulig and performer Winnie Huang chat about the one-to-one experience "tend".
Winnie’s Sounds Unheard Studio Talk series, “The Musical-Gestural Perspective”, delves into her strong interest in the performance of musical-gestural works, as explored through her own original compositions and collaborating with other composers, developing highly gestural contemporary works.
In the first episode "Introduction to the Musical-Gestural", Winnie gives us some insight into the subject of Musical-Gestural Perspective through a brief summary of her doctoral research and how that sits in the world of performance and artistic practice.
In the second episode "The Musical-Gestural Performer", speaks about her artistic research on the musical-gestural perspective. She demonstrates various musical-gestural techniques by discussing the following compositions: 'Inori' by Karlheinz Stockhausen, 'How to Make a Monster' by Sivan Cohen Elias and 'Tend' by Charlie Sdraulig.
In the third and final episode, ‘The Musical-Gestural Composer’, Winnie shares a few of her compositions. She discusses how these works stem from her artistic research on the musical-gestural perspective and demonstrates her compositional process. Winnie encourages us to explore our own interests, experiences and culture as a way to create art and develop an artistic practice.
