# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Transfigurations: Han Kang’s ‘The Vegetarian” in Music and Words Lisa Sung Ensemble
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 21 Mar, 2026 at 04:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Korean American jazz pianist Lisa Sung presents an original song cycle inspired by The Vegetarian, a book by Nobel Prize-winning author Han Kang. Performed by her ensemble in collaboration with the Nam Center for Korean Studies at the University of Michigan, the concert explores themes from the book: silence, resistance, and transformation through sound. Drawing from contemporary jazz and improvisation, Sung’s compositions translate the novel’s psychological intensity and poetic restraint into an intimate sonic experience. Audiences can expect a performance that blurs literature and music, inviting deep listening and reflection.
