Multi-award winning composer and pianist, Vu, of Vietnamese descent, was born and raised in Poland and currently works as lecturer in composition at the University of Chicago. Her cross-cultural background strongly influences her music, which explores the interplay between sound properties of words and their meanings, the ways musical energy relates to form, and questions our notions of time.
