Product details
New piano compositions celebrating a Chinese-Western confluence
played by Antonietta Loffredo.
A University of Western Sydney project this interesting CD is the
third by Antoinetta in a collaboration with the composers who
have been encouraged to write new pieces for this project. It
consists of piano pieces which draw on such influences as Chinese
bird song; stylistic characteristics of Chinese instruments on an
Australian folk tune; impressions of Shanghai; a phrase from
Yijing (l-ching); teracotta figures of a travelling orchestra on
horseback; a Chinese nursery rhyme; the concept of Qi; a Hong
Kong market early in the morning; a poem by Chinese poet Po Chu
(772-846); the musics of the three cultures of Malaysia; and from
a Chinese perspective, winter days and a funeral in Australia.
Duration: 64 min.
