Ying Wang: RE:Wilding

Ying Wang’s RE:Wilding presents five works shaped by sonic precision, cultural awareness, and political urgency. Acoustic instruments and electronics coexist without hierarchy, exposing noise, fragility, and quotation as structural elements. Rather than fixed messages, the music offers a field of tensions—between gesture and abstraction, control and collapse, presence and disappearance. References to social injustice, ecological crisis, and cultural memory are articulated through sharply drawn contrasts and layered patterns. Across orchestral, solo, and chamber settings, Wang constructs evolving sound environments where repetition resists stasis and tradition is neither rejected nor romanticized, but critically observed and recontextualized.
