Patrick Yim and Kiu Tung
Poon, THE SOULFUL AND THE
PERPETUAL is in two
movements. “The
Soulful” is lyrical and
expressive, with moving,
gripping melodies. “The
Perpetual” is a moto
perpetuo, symbolizing
consistency and
perseverance. The
virtuosic cadenza
features ever-moving
patterns of fast notes,
reaching toward the
exquisite with fluency
and agility.
