His piece L’Image Oubilée d’après Debussy was performed at the New Music Miami ISCM Festival 2023. Performed by Chen-Hui Jen, the concert took place at The Wolfsonian Hall of the Florida International University on 29th March. Commissioned by the York Late Music Series, this piece was written to mark the centenary of Debussy and was premiered in York by James Willshire. It has now been included in Simaku’s CD-portrait performed by Joseph Houston and released by the Swedish label BIS Records. As the German critic Guido Fischer described it in his Rondo-Das Klassik & Jazz Magazin review, the piece “has a magical individuality”.
