Yung
-Yang is a song
for medium Voice with
Piano accompaniment. It
is based on a ninth
century Chinese text,
which was translated into
English in 1916 by
Launcelot
Cranmer-Byng, and
set to music in
1919.
Sir
Granville Bantock
(1868-1946) was a British
composer, conductor and
educator. He channelled
his energetic and
creative personality into
many musical projects,
championing the works of
Jean Sibelius, founding
the City of Birmingham
Symphony Orchestra, and
composing many splendid
classical pieces. Viewed
by his contemporaries as
out-of-date, his music is
now being appreciated as
one of the last great
contributions from
theEnglish Romantic
movement.
