Dedicated to Felix Fan

I, We is inspired by the Polynesians and the Pueblo. I always thought we all looked alike, but only until speaking with several Pueblos and hearing the stories passed down generations about how they were, at one point, Asian from a thousand years ago. 

On the other side of the earth, Polynesians occupy most of the islands in the Pacific Ocean: Easter Island, Hawaii, New Zealand, and everything inside this big triangle. The scholar has just discovered that – the indigenous people on these islands originated in Taiwan 5,000 years ago. 

They travel with horses and boats, and I travel in the air. Despite the difference in the vehicle, our migration never seems to settle. We travel to lands at different times and become another group of people. We are alike until we don’t remember.

I, We for cello solo
