Gao Ping, born in Sichuan Province, is also well-known as a pianist and has visited Japan to showcase his technique; here, however, he presents music with a mysterious resonance. As for Takemitsu, he certainly needs no introduction at this point. This work was commissioned to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Tokyo Quartet’s formation. Tan Dun’s work is a collection of pieces he wrote for the first time after arriving in New York in 1986. It is a collection of pictorial miniatures depicting a variety of scenes, ranging from childhood memories to atonal music. The performance by the New Zealand String Quartet further highlights the fusion of different cultures.\nNaxos Japan\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTracklisting:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.Song of the Ch'in\u003cbr\u003e2.Spiral III\u003cbr\u003e3.Bright Light and Cloud Shadows\u003cbr\u003e4.A Way a Lone\u003cbr\u003e5.Eight Colors: No. 1: Peking Opera\u003cbr\u003e6.Eight Colors: No. 2: Shadows\u003cbr\u003e7.Eight Colors: No. 3: Pink Actress\u003cbr\u003e8.Eight Colors: No. 4: Black Dance\u003cbr\u003e9.Eight Colors: No. 5: Zen\u003cbr\u003e10.Eight Colors: No. 6: Drum and Gong\u003cbr\u003e11.Eight Colors: No. 7: Cloudiness\u003cbr\u003e12.Eight Colors: No. 8: Red Sona\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Naxos","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53530751762721,"sku":"4945604724883","price":219.0,"currency_code":"SEK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/4945604724883.jpg?v=1789819011","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/en-se\/products\/4945604724883","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
