"妈妈, 爸爸。(For Mum, Dad: DISTANT LETTERS)" is a multimedia chamber music experience that serves as a love letter to immigrant parents. Featuring chamber music works by API and/or immigrant composers, performed by flute-cello duo KOE, and collaborating with new media art and dance, this third iteration of the "For Mum, Dad" series explores the difficulties of the immigrant journey and the distance it creates with inspiration taken from a set of letters between Flora and Charles Wang in 1940s Montana.
