Strings leap like laughter in the harvest air,
Dancing feet and clinking cups in sound.
Golden fields ripple with joy and motion,
As the violin calls out a season full of life—
Bright, bold, and drunk on sunlight,
Where celebration spins until the last leaf falls.

And a small note for everyone: in this performance, the violinist is playing a truly special instrument, whose scroll is carved in the shape of the Statue of Liberty—a powerful symbol of freedom and New York itself. The violin is crafted by the luthier Lukas Wronski, and it is played here by the violinist ShanRong Tuo during this PINEASE concert. With this remarkable instrument and its unique symbolism, let us listen more closely and look forward together to the beauty, warmth, and golden light of autumn in New York City. 🍁🎻
