My big semester project for my Composition lab. Taking a part the classic Clair De Lune and making it my own.

Clair Haunts Me

Written as a "Thank you!" to the Midnight Mission for allowing me to stay for 26 months, took care of every basic need, and allowed me to address recovery, attend school, and create a new life away from alcohol & drugs. 
Used for my audition to the San Francisco Conservatory of Music.

Midnight to 12:01

Her Song is the next single off my upcoming record
"The Moon Behind The Mountains, The Face Between The Trees"
out December 2021!

I began transitioning in June of 2021. 
I can't describe how bizarre of a feeling it is to have felt miserable for 27 years and then one day, everything changed.

MFOM Program 710: From the Archive-Terry Allen in Conversation with Charles Amirkhanian

X morceaux mystérieux is a set of pieces inspired by the “René Magritte - The Fifth Season” exhibition at San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. It shows Chen’s understanding of the mysterious and surreal beauty in Magritte’s paintings. The “X” in the title represents an unknown number. 
I. L’absence de…
This movement represents the absence of the main subject in Magritte’s painting, “Lightning”, by creating a subtly tense musical atmosphere, and then having movement II completely silent. 
II.
This is a silent movement. 
III. La dissimulation
The theme of this movement is “concealment”. Magritte drew standing and sitting coffins in his painting, “The Balcony”, concealing what is inside; the composer hid the melodic fragments in different instrumental lines, concealing the melody. 
IV. Hommage à Messiaen
This movement is an homage to Messiaen’s “Quartet for the End of Time”. It took inspiration from Magritte’s beautiful and serene painting, “The Kiss”, which depicts a giant bird of the bright blue sky flying in the night sky above the ocean.
V. Ceci n'est pas un morceau de musique.
The title of this movement means “This is not a piece of music.” The music in this movement is what the composer calls “obvious music”. It is a musical interpretation of Magritte’s “The Treachery of Images”, also known as “This is not a pipe”. 
VI. Les différents degrés de lumière
This movement emphasizes on the collision of different musical layers. The sound of this movement is slightly disturbing, but at the same time strangely complete. It is the composer’s interpretation of Magritte’s painting “Empire of Light”.
