Live in the Lounge: Lighting The Way Home Concert | January 30

Monday, January 30, 2023 — 7:00 pm

Special Note from Nathan Wang, Shelly Ren and The Ebell of Los Angeles: We are all heartbroken by the tragic events that took place in Monterey Park this past weekend and in Northern California on Monday. We look to honor our beloved community, culture and traditions with this concert and bring a brief moment of respite through this immense pain.

Chinese-American composer Nathan Wang welcomes all to a very special Lunar New Year Concert featuring the all-women Saltando Strings ensemble. They will perform beloved traditional Chinese folk tunes in honor of the Lunar New Year Festival, which traditionally celebrates the beginning of spring and the arrival of the new year in many Asian cultures.

The evening will be made even more special by the world premiere performance of a new work by Wang in honor of Anna May Wong, the renowned Chinese-American actress who was also recently honored by the US Mint as one of the new faces (and the first Asian American) to be featured on the US quarter.

Nathan Wang’s appearance has been made possible thanks to Singpoli Entertainment.
