Tangram Voices is the brainchild of composer and Tangram artist, Sun Keting, who imagined a concert series that showcased and harnessed the unique and inspiring creativities of the individuals that make up our collective.

Launched in June 2020 and directed by Sun Keting, each Tangram Voices concert is curated by one Tangram artist who leads the programming and commissioning. We are dedicated to keeping these beautiful creativities digitally accessible and below you will find each Tangram Voices concert.

Enjoy!
