Buckley at the National Heritage Museum in Lexington; MA. The authentic folk music from China West has amazed and inspired the composer to write this piece; which has folk music elements drawn from the folk songs Gadameilin and Pastoral of the Meng People; Ashima of the Yi People; Du Mu and Amaliehuo of the Zang People; and Dou Duo and the Lusheng ensemble music of the Miao People. Duration: 13'
