Goddess//Insect is a new work by JUNO Award-winning composer Vivian Fung, co-commissioned by Newport Classical and a national consortium of concert presenters, receiving its New England premiere at The Breakers on July 9, 2026. The piece is written for violinist Kristin Lee and the GRAMMY-nominated ensemble Sandbox Percussion, exploring the vibrant dialogue between violin and percussion. Fung describes the work as a reflection of conflicting emotions in today's turbulent world, derived from the concept of 'God-Bug Syndrome.' The program also includes music by composers Gabriella Smith and Joan Tower.
