{"product_id":"my-other-song-piano","title":"My Other Song","description":"\u003cp\u003eComposer Note: In 1990, after eight years in the United States, I wrote my first work for solo piano, titled \u003ci\u003eMy Song\u003c\/i\u003e, commissioned for Peter Serkin. At the time, my primary compositional concentration was to develop a melodic and harmonic style within the boundaries of Chinese folk music, which are mostly in pentatonic modes, and contemporary Western Classical music. As a result, all the four movements in \u003ci\u003eMy Song\u003c\/i\u003e were either based on existing Chinese folk tunes or written in their style. I was asked recently by another virtuoso pianist friend, Yefim Bronfman, to write a work for solo piano. After the passing of 17 years, I wonder if there is any change in my writing. I therefore titled the new suite \u003ci\u003eMy Other Song\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThere are four movements in the composition, the first three of which are brief and provide contrast in character. The theme of the last movement, the longest, is based on a Buddhist chant heard at the wake for my mother in February 2005.–Bright Sheng\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"G.
