A gentle celebration in music with three variations and a coda, filled with warmth and gratitude.

A quiet night, lanterns drifting downstream like dreams.

A bright, carefree piece about taking the long way home.

Inspired by hearing younger children perform at a summer music camp, bringing back memories of music Ziwei had played when he was younger.

An improvisation inspired by Erling Haaland — energy, instinct and the joy of the game.

A melodic étude inspired by Chopin’s Étude Op. 10 No. 1, exploring broken-chord patterns, changing hand positions, and continuous legato motion across the keyboard. The piece takes the flowing arpeggiated texture of Chopin’s étude as a starting point while developing its own melodic direction.

A compact, playful piano piece built around a simple musical challenge.

A mysterious opening gradually unfolds into a broader, more luminous sound.

A quiet opening scene, tracing the first steps into the castle's carved corridors.

Light, fleeting shapes pass by like shadows at the edge of vision.

The atmosphere turns inward, descending toward darker and deeper rooms.

A playful haunted scene with odd turns, whispers, and a slightly mischievous grin.

Restless lines and shifting accents suggest uncertainty, searching, and momentum.

Urgent energy builds as the music pushes toward daylight and release.

A dramatic finale — bold, driven, and charged with game-like confrontation.
