En Rose

This music piece introduces Classical Chinese quartet, which includes Sheng, Pipa, Konghou (sinicized harp, brought into China via Silk Road millennium ago) and Xiao (flute of China) to contemporary music of the West. Globalization is an unstoppable trend, which could foster civilizations against this economic recession we are confronting at this moment. First half of the music depicts a picturesque appreciation within a Chinese garden, and the second verse switches into Sino-Bossa-Nova style, embracing a slight passionate and dynamic vibe; then the outro closes the whole piece down in a sound and sweet atmosphere, cultivated by the Chinese quartet. These together portrays a journey to the East and West in one piece, ending with a comfortably-served sleep.
