Eunbi Kim and Iris Musicians

Pianist **Eunbi Kim**’s sonic memoir, *it feels like a dream*, features a soundworld of classical music threaded with an indie-pop awareness–– expanded by the hypnotic projected visuals of new media artist **Xuan**. This immersive multimedia performance explores issues of family and identity. It offers listeners the soundspace to meditate on the dreams they carry and pass on.

*it feels like a dream* includes works by Daniel Bernard Roumain (DBR), Angélica Negrón, Pauchi Sasaki, and Sophia Jani for piano, pre-recorded voices, and electronics written for and performed by Kim. The featured work is "Mother's Hand, Healing Hand (엄마손은 약손)" by Peruvian-Japanese composer Pauchi Sasaki. Says Kim about the work: “Pauchi's piece uses an audio sample of my mother singing a traditional Korean chant that mothers sing to their children when they're feeling sick.”

This program extends Iris Collective’s collaboration with Carnegie Hall as a national partner of the Lullaby Project. Families of students at Memphis Oral School for the Deaf worked closely with Iris musicians to create personal lullabies that honor each child’s unique journey and strengthen family bonds through music, language, and play. These heartfelt lullabies complete a program devoted to creativity and togetherness.
