'Symphony played by two strings' is the compliment that music critics has for Chen Jie-bing's Hu-Qin performance.
The unique style of her performance is a successful combination of both oriental and western performing skills.
For this particular album of Chinese traditional melodies, Wind invited Chen Jie-bing and the famous recording engineer Kavichandran Alexander to work together in U.S.
This is an excellent demonstration of how the profound spirit of Chinese traditional music and professional recording technique can be united to create the most beautiful music. In addition, the recording site chosen by K. Alexander was a very old church with superb performance space in Santa Barbara of California. Outstanding recording technique of Alexander plus the superb recording site brings this album of extraordinary high quality to reality, and displays the magic of erh-hu (a kind of hu-qin) in full.
