Harmony Chinese Music Ensemble |
|
Harmony Ensemble play music from the rich traditions of China - and go further, drawing on Chinese, Western Classical and Scottish folk elements to create improvisations, new songs and compositions. For concerts and workshops we draw from a pool of musicians from East and West: Fong Liu presents a wide range of singing styles (‘mountain’ voice, folk, opera, even jazz style) and collaborates with Scottish composer Eddie McGuire (he plays bamboo flute) to compose new songs. Zheng and a fascinating array of Chinese percussion are played by Hooi Ling Eng (who is also a member of Gamelan Naga Mas). Other musicians often include Willem Mathlener (violin), Kimho Ip (yang qin), Cheng-Ying Chuang (liuqin, ruan and counter-tenor voice) and Xuan Shan (accordion). |
