Product details
In 2023, my colleague Lulu and I travelled to Lisbon, Portugal, to attend a meeting of the European Foundation for Chinese Music Research (CHIME). This event brought together musicians and researchers from across Europe, Asia, America, and Australia with a shared interest in the musical cultures of China. Among the highlights of the meeting were live performances showcasing instruments such as erhu, liuqin, and morin khuur. We were also treated to a demonstration of Chinese shadow puppetry, and we engaged in fascinating discussions on diverse topics including the Dai elephant-foot drum and Kunqu opera. To conclude the meeting, we visited the nearby Palace of Mafra, where we viewed a newly installed exhibition of Chinese musical instruments and listened together to the bells of Mafra's UNESCO World Heritage Listed carillon - an instrument of unimaginable scale with earth-rumbling bass notes and prominent minor-third overtones. These experiences all contributed directly to this work's composition.
