3.0 out of 5 starsThe more experimental side of Dun's output, showing his debt to classical tradition
By Christopher Culver on August 12, 2008
Format: Audio CD
For all of Tan Dun's prominent role as a populist crowd-pleaser who delights audiences with East meets West crossover, there has always been that other side where his expression has been more concentrated and his knowledge of the Modernist tradition more overt. This Ondine disc, released in 1998, brings together three fairly early works that show Dun at his more violent. Muhai Tang leads the Helsinki Philharmonic Orchestra.

"Out of Peking Opera" for violin and orchestra (1987, rev. 1994) begins with a brief tune from a Chinese opera played by the soloist, but then immediately expands into a richly chromatic Western soundworld. The general mood is expressionist, perhaps comparable to the music of Wolfgang Rihm. Allusions to Dun's Chinese tradition are subtle: a single percussion sound here, a little pentatonic melody popping up among parts of the orchestra, or a fiddle-like inflection on the solo violin. Cho-Ling Lin, who performs here, was the dedicatee of the revised version.

"Death and Fire" (1992) is a hommage to the painter Paul Klee, nine of its ten movements alluding to a specific work or general aspects of his art. This wide orchestral scope is often unfocused, and I find it a generally unremarkable piece, as colourful as the touches of nocturnal animals calls are. However, the following "Orchestral Theatre II: Re" (1992) is an unusual piece, to say the least. It is scored for bass voice, divided orchestra and two conductors. Initially the orchestral music develops on top of a D ("re" in solfege, hence the title) held by the bass before going off into similar evocative settings as "Death and Fire". At two points, the audience is called to participate, first humming the D along with the singer, and then chanting a faux-Chinese refrain.Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 stars3 tracs - each different
By Marian F. Grant on September 23, 2005
Format: Audio CD
Musically I found the CD to be excellent. I am researching Paul Klee which was the motivation for buying this work. The 3rd trac was unusual to my ears but not atypical for Tan Dun.
