Biography
Alexis travels frequently between Hong Kong and the San Francisco Bay Area, where she is the director of the John Adams Young Composers Program. Her music, which has been called "California Impressionism" is influenced by French Impressionist music, California minimalism and Asian music.
Her first orchestra piece was performed by the Women's Philharmonic and has since been played multiple times around the US. The American Composers Forum selected her for the Millenium Continental Harmony project, for which she composed a major piece for orchestra, chorus and soloists.
Recent pieces include Adagion Tranquillo for electric guitar and vibraphone, Marimba Concerto, Fragile Forests II: Cambodia for chamber orchestra, Route 101 for string quartet and Wen Bi Pool for harp, flute and viola.
