二泉映月（特別版）"Er Quan Ying Yue" (Moon Reflections In ErQuan) violin (Yu Zhuang) and cello (Alvin Wong)

Details

Description

《二泉映月》，二胡名曲，是中国民间音乐家华彦钧（阿炳）的代表作。
这首乐曲自始至终流露的是一位饱尝人间辛酸和痛苦的盲艺人的思绪情感，作品展示了独特的民间演奏技巧与风格，以及无与伦比的深邃意境，显示了中国二胡艺术的独特魅力。
《二泉映月》是中国民族音乐文化宝库中一首享誉海内外的优秀作品，是中国民间器乐创作曲目中的瑰宝之一。

為這次演出我特別編排了一個小提琴和大提琴二重奏的版本，為樂曲的愁緒加入一點點希望和活力以及對未來的憧憬。

Originally written for the two-string Chinese fiddle "Erhu," this work is one of the most important gems of Chinese folk instrumental music composed by ABing, or Hua Yanjun. It expresses the pain and suffering a blind wandering artist has to go through.

For this concert presented in Kursaal Stuttgart, Germany, I arranged it for a violin and cello duo, hoping to bring a little bit of energy and hope.
