ABOUT THE ALBUM
Described as "a fresh voice in cross-cultural music" by the MacArthur Foundation, whose Fellowshiphe was awarded, Bright Sheng has become one of today's most widely performed composers. Filteredthrough Sheng's rhythmically energetic yet haunting idiom, various types of Himalayan Sherpa dancesare captured in Dance Capriccio, while characteristic singing voices and Chinese opera rhythms arerepresented in A Night at the Chinese Opera. My Song was inspired both by the musicality and virtuosityof pianist Peter Serkin (the work's dedicatee and the soloist on this recording) and by the composer'slove of Chinese folk music.
