Inspired by masters like Bill Evans and Keith Jarrett, Her unique live performance style incorporates impromptu improvisations based on random sounds. To date, she has released 17 albums, and recently, she is teaming up with saxophonist Patrick Bartley Jr, bassist Ji Peng, and drummer Masahiko Osaka to produce a new album titled "One Another Day" with performance in Hong Kong.
