Her work frequently explores themes of memory, nature, and introspection, characterized by delicate textures and a distinctive harmonic language that blends influences from both Western classical traditions and Eastern musical sensibilities. She is known for both solo piano pieces and chamber works.

The Concertgebouw, completed in 1888, is widely considered one of the world’s most acoustically lauded concert halls. Designed by Pieter Cuypers, the building is renowned for its shoebox-shaped auditorium which contributes to its natural reverberation and clarity of sound. Throughout its history, it has hosted performances by leading orchestras, conductors, and soloists globally. The hall’s acoustics are not due to deliberate acoustic engineering as such techniques were not yet developed at the time of construction; rather they resulted from Cuypers' architectural choices regarding proportions and materials. It is the home base of the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra (Koninklijk Concertgebouworkest), one of the Netherlands’ leading orchestras.
