Composer's Notes
Gales whistled with sand flying all over the sky in
frontier in the depth of winter.
People living near here had been struggling
with the bad environment for
generations. In spite of the pain of sands hitting in face, they beat trums and blew
horns in gales piously to pray a good harvest
in the coming year and a lasting
peace. - JiaqiLiu
Reviews
This is truly a virtuosic composition that, if played well by a very skillful pianist,
could be quite effective on the stage. The music is utmost passionate and exciting.
The ever-changing harmonies with unstoppable and highly animated flourishes
and passages of all kinds create a very dramatic and stirring drive. The waves of
sound rising and falling over and over are quite dazzling and stimulating. Very
good indeed.
