Interview with Viet Cuong
Episode 8
Wednesday, 5 August, 2026

Meet composer Viet Cuong, FNMC’s current commissioning partner! Today Viet shares the inspiration for his now-famous piece for flute and piano, Lacquer and Grit as well as a little preview of his artistic process for his upcoming work for flute and percussion. (Shameless plug: there’s still time to join the commission!). He also reflects upon the charm of working with a middle school band and shares the secret to winning his composer’s heart.https://vietcuongmusic.com/about/Michael Gordon, TimberSibelius Symphony No. 1, movement 1Nils Fraum, Sayshttps://www.flutenewmusicconsortium.com/viet-cuong-commission.html
