Is there already a forum for this repertoire? If not, I’d love to get this topic rolling! Also Asian,LatinX, women and all minorities. My chamber group just performed Shoreline for flute, oboe and harp by Cynthia Lee Wong, and I highly recommend it! The harp part is prominent and idiomatic, challenging but very playable. The composer worked closely with harpist Kim Glennie, who premiers the work on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u6nfwYWK1Gk. She has some very innovative ideas, including using different colors to indicate themes in the score, and carefully placed dynamics.
