180g Vinyl LP!
A Suite of Little Songs from China's Performing Arts Traditions
This program features a suite of ten pieces representing the unique folk traditions of the Hebei, Beijing, Tianjin, Jiangsu, Henan, Shandong, Sichuan, Dongbei and Guangdong regions. Many of these earthy and colorful art forms are in danger of extinction, while others only survive as "tourist attractions". It is the hope of Mr. Ye Yunchuan of Rhymoi Music and Meng Qinghua that this loving tribute to China's lesser-known folkways will inspire a new generation of artists, musicians and scholars and music lovers to seek out, support, preserve and promote these traditions well into the 21st century.
