Description:
Truly masterful in her ability to marry Western performance ideals with the folk music of China; Chen Yi wrote this plaintive memorial work in tribute to the passing of her teacher; Professor Lin Yaoji. In the program notes; the composer speaks to her mentor: 'I wish you could hear the tune in my Memory; which sounds like my painful cry out of your name in our Cantonese dialect. I expressed my deep sorrow in the music; to remember your fatherly mentorship. Your meaningful smile will always be with us encouragingly.' Dur.: 3'30'
