Event Details:
Vân-Ánh Vanessa Võ is an award-winning performer and Emmy Award-winning composer who has collaborated with the Kronos Quartet, Alonzo King LINES Ballet, and Yo-Yo Ma. The multi-instrumentalist and composer fuses deeply rooted Vietnamese musical traditions with fresh new structures and compositions, creating music that moves beyond genre into a space of transformation.
In a groundbreaking performance, Võ joins Stanford Live’s celebration of the harp, uniting virtuosos of the Korean gayageum, Japanese koto, and the Chinese guzheng with her own mastery of Vietnamese dan tranh. This unprecedented event marks the first time audiences will witness all four Asian zithers/harps sharing the stage, promising an evening of unparalleled musical integration and cultural harmony.
