I am so excited to hear this piece live later this month! The Minnesota Orchestra is playing this along with Holst’s planets - should be a fantastic show!
I heard this live with the MN Orchestra today and was spellbound by not only the soloist but also the demand on the orchestra as well. I brought my 14 year old son to hear the Planets, but this was equally captivating. We were both mesmerized by this performance.
Now I need some oxygen! I didn't dare to breathe during the entire piece. Absolutely captivating from the first note on. Outstanding performance. And what a colourful composition. Whoever gave this a thumbs down has neither heart nor brain nor ears.
Wunderschöne und spannende Aufführung dieses einzigartigen und technisch anspruchsvollen Konzerts mit gut artikuliertem Ton des chinesischen Soloinstruments und perfekt entsprechenden Tönen der anderen Instrumente. Der intelligente und geniale Dirigent leitet das hoch funktionelle Orchester im veränderlichen Tempo und mit sorgfältig kontrollierter Dynamik. Wundervoll und atemberaubend zugleich!
I LOVE how witty this is! The interplay between the soloist and the orchestra is so playful! It feels like a contemporary relative of Mozart's 5th violin concerto or Rachmaninoff's Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini!

Somebody can tell me what kind of musical instrument is the SHENG . Obviously is wind instrument, but is modern one?; Is it a traditional instrument?; Is it a modern form of a traditional instrument. At any case, the work is a very atractive music, modern music. Dima Slobodeniuk is a very good conductor and the hr Sinfonier is a gret orchestra. The soloist is so strange to me as strange is the instrument he plays. I insist, is very good modern music, a sycretism of occidental and oriental music and especially a caress for ears.
El instrumento me parece una especie de órgano de boca, o de una flauta de pan cuyos tubos reciben el aire mediante un sistema interno de distribución, accionado desde el exterior. Quedo a la espera de alguien de buena voluntad que conteste mi pregunta inmediatamente anterior.
