The five Chinese traditional instruments being used for this ensemble, are: Erhu 二胡 - “Chinese Violin†Yangqin æšç´ - “Chinese Ducimer†Ruan ä¸é˜® - “Chinese Lute†2 Zhengs å¤ç® - “Chinese Zither†The composition of this piece is based on the original musical materials of Bunung布農. The Bunungese is a minority group of natives who live on the island of Formosaå°ç£. Ethnically speaking, they originated from the Micronesian race rather than from the “Hanâ€, the Chinese majority who accounts for ninety-seven percent of the population. The pentatonic mode is often found in Chinese folk tunes, in which a triad chord is seldom found. However, the Bunungese actually “enjoy†the sonority (the pitch and the tone) of the major triad. The modern civilization has yet to adapt to their wild and natural style. Usually, their folk song would be a chorale led by a leading singer, followed by the crowd. In the morning, facing the rising sun, the people with their colourful clothes, gather in a circle and dance to the rhythmic music. Located in far east Asia, the Bunungese may well be the first people to praise the rising sun to celebrate the new century with songs and dances. This is the reason why the composer chose to complete the commission in the Bunugese style. æ¤å½•éŸ³ä¸º2000å¹´é»„å®‰ä¼¦æŒ‡æŒ¥åŠ æ‹¿å¤§å®¤å†…ä¹å›¢åœ¨å¸•é‡Œæ¡‘音ä¹èŠ‚首演的实况.é’¢ç´æ˜¯æ¬§é˜³ç‘žä¸½,æ°‘ä¹éƒ¨ä»½ç”±å¤šä¼¦å¤šçš„敦煌室ä¹å›¢æ‹…ä»».
