Jia Daqun, one of China's most prolific and respected composers, has written in many forms, including symphonies, concertos, chamber music and song cycles. The symphonic four-concerto cycle, Impressions of Liyuan, is one of his major pieces. It is written for Chinese percussion, bamboo flute, the erhu and suona, with a large symphony orchestra. It offers an evocative aural landscape fusing Western styles with the traditional characteristics of Chinese opera, framed in a contemporary context.
