Experience the Harmony of Music and Philosophy: Joel Trigg’s The Five Elements

Discover the profound connection between music, philosophy, and well-being at Joel Trigg’s solo piano concert, The Five Elements, on Friday, March 21, at the Melbourne Recital Centre.

A Unique Fusion of Music and Tai Chi

Joel Trigg is not just a pianist—he is an artist who blends music with deep philosophical and meditative traditions. As a PhD in Music and a Trainee Instructor with Tai Chi Australia, Joel has spent years exploring the relationship between movement, energy, and sound. His studies in Tai Chi, the Yin-Yang theory, and the Five Elements philosophy have inspired a unique musical style that promotes relaxation, mindfulness, and inner peace.

Recently, Joel’s dedication to Tai Chi earned him a silver medal in Health Qigong in China, a testament to his commitment to integrating traditional Chinese wisdom into his practice. His upcoming concert brings this philosophy to life through a captivating solo piano performance.

The Five Elements: A Musical Journey

Rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine and philosophy, The Five Elements explores the natural cycle of Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water—elements that shape both the physical world and human personality. This philosophy, which sees human beings as an extension of nature, has inspired Joel to compose a stunning suite of music that translates these elemental forces into sound.

Whether you are passionate about music, meditation, traditional Chinese wisdom, or simply seeking an evening of soothing and thought-provoking melodies, this concert offers a rare opportunity to experience something truly special.
