Chen Yi
describes the cheery
interplay of HAPPY TUNE
as: “When one
instrument plays a
livelymelody, the other
plays a vivid rhythmic
pattern in the
accompaniment. The pair
of string
instrumentsimitates the
sound of primitive
Chinese folk song
singing, as well as the
Chinese traditional
windinstrument sheng, a
mouth pipe organ.â€
Published as a shared
score and extracted
parts, and writtenas a
celebration piece
honoring the 25th
anniversary of the Great
Lakes Chamber Music
Festival. Composed to
celebrate the 25th
Anniversary of the Great
Lakes Chamber Music
Festival, my violin and
viola duet HAPPY TUNE was
written for Kim
Kashkashian and Tien-Hsin
Cindy Wu, and premiered
at the festival on June
16, 2018.I fondly
remember being invited by
the GLCMF (directed by
Prof. James Tocco) to be
the dual Stone
Composers-in-Residence
with my husband Zhou
Long, along with the
Stone Composer Fellow
Nicholas Omiccioli in
2011. We had a dozen of
our chamber works
performed excellently by
the outstanding chamber
ensembles and musicians
during the week, meeting
enthusiastic audiences
and supporters of new
music in various venues
at the festival. The
experience was truly
inspiring, and I created
HAPPY TUNE to honor the
GLCMF, with hopes to
carry on the high spirit
in our new music
society.In this duet,
when one instrument plays
a lively melody, the
other plays a vivid
rhythmic pattern in the
accompaniment. The pair
of string instruments
imitates the sound of
primitive Chinese folk
song singing, as well as
the Chinese traditional
wind instrument sheng, a
mouth pipe organ.

Appalachian
fiddle music, based on
the musical traditions of
the people who settled in
the mountainous regions
of the southeastern
United States, is
widely-known and played
throughout North America
and parts of Europe
because of its complex
rhythms, its catchy
melodies, and its
often-ancient-sounding
stylistic qualities. The
authors explore the lives
and music of 43 of the
classic Appalachian
fiddlers who were active
during the first half of
the 20th century. Some of
them were recorded
commercially in the
1920s, such as Gid
Tanner, Fiddlin? John
Carson, and Charlie
Bowman. Some were
recorded by folklorists
from the Library of
Congress, such as William
Stepp, Emmett Lundy, and
Marion Reece. Others were
recorded informally by
family members and
visitors, such as John
Salyer, Emma Lee
Dickerson, and Manco
Sneed. All of them played
throughout most of their
lives and influenced the
growth and stylistic
elements of fiddle music
in their regions. Each
fiddler has been given a
chapter with a biography,
several tune
transcriptions, and tune
histories. To show the
richness of the music,
the authors make a
special effort to show
the musical elements in
detail, but also
acknowledge that nothing
can take the place of
listening. Many of the
classic recordings used
in this book can be found
on the web, allowing you
to hear and read the
music together.
