The name N羹 Voice is derived from the word new, reflecting our commitment to programming not only contemporary music but also works by underrepresented composers. Additionally, N羹 means women in Chinese, underscoring our dedication to featuring female composers in this concerts program.

In this program, we seek to highlight women from two contrasting realmsmythology and history. Featuring legendary figures such as Penelope and Calypso to esteemed historical figures like Canadian folklorist Helen Creighton, our selection weaves together diverse narratives across time.

During their graduate studies at the University of Western Ontario, Andrea Willis and Megaria Halim discovered a shared passion for exploring new, unconventional, and underrepresented musical works. With an abundance of remarkable repertoire for piano and voicemany of which remain underperformedthey were inspired to form the Eklektik Music Duo. Derived from the Greek word eklektikos, meaning choosing the best from various sources, their name reflects their commitment to drawing inspiration from diverse genres and styles, creating a truly distinctive sound.
