About

The Phoenix, co-commissioned by the Seattle Symphony and Danish National Symphony Orchestra, was inspired by a Hans Christian Andersen tale, the mythical bird symbolizing for Chinese-American composer Bright Sheng “the muse of all peoples.”

Aggressive fervour seeks meditative peace in H’un: In memoriam 1966-1976, hailed by The New York Times as “a searing portrait of the Cultural Revolution in China … deeply affecting.”

Red Silk Dance, Tibetan Swing and The Phoenix are World Premiere Recordings.
