On the
occasion of its 30th
anniversary, the ensemble
Music From China
commissioned Chen Yi for
a new work, which became
Three Dances from China
South, scored for Chinese
instruments. Its three
descriptive movements
(Lions Playing Ball,
Bamboo Dance, Lusheng
Dance) are each inspired
by folk dances from the
southeastern provinces of
China. My chamber
ensemble work Three
Dances From China South
is commissioned by Music
From China tocelebrate
its 30th anniversary, and
scored for Chinese
traditional instruments
dizi, erhu, pipa, and
zheng. The commission
has been made possible by
the Chamber Music America
Classical
CommissioningProgram,
with generous funding
provided by The Andrew W.
Mellon Foundation, and
the Chamber Music America
Endowment Fund. Â The
world premiere is given
at Weill Recital Hall in
Carnegie Hall in New York
City, on November 21,
2014. Â My Three Dances
From China South is
dedicated to Susan Cheng,
the founder and Executive
Director of Music From
China, to celebrate the
30th anniversary of
MFC. There are three
movements in my Three
Dances From China South
for dizi, erhu, pipa, and
zheng. Â Thematerial in
the first movement Lions
Playing Ball is drawn
from a folk tune played
in the
accompanyingensemble for
the folk dance under the
same title in Chaozhou
region in Guangdong
province. Â The image
of the folk dance is
vivid and entertaining.
 The movement includes
several variations on the
theme. Â The variation
methods are inspired by
the various rhythmic
patterns used in the
traditional ensemble
playing. The melodic
material features a
special mode with a
tritone interval taken
from the folk tune.
 There are also
lyrical sections with
polyphonic layers in the
variations.The music in
the second movement is
inspired by the folk
Bamboo Dance, which is
popular in Li
minoritypeople from
Hainan Island in the
south. Â The aged old
folk dance is for ritual
ceremony and harvest
celebration in the
history, in which there
are pairs of people
holding the ends of the
long bamboo rods and
clapping them loudly in
stable pulse, for groups
of dancers to dance
between the bamboo shapes
on the floor, in musical
rhythms and ensemble
patterns. Â A musical
motive with a jumping
interval and articulation
is used throughout the
movement.The third
movement is called
Lusheng Dance. Â I have
witnessed the folk dance
performance of the Dong
minority people in
Guangxi province in the
1980’s.  The
exciting scene inspired
me to imitate the large
lusheng ensemble playing
style in my ensemble of
four Chinese instrumental
musicians without using
the sheng (a wind
instrument with metal
pipes that is popular in
concert music, and
similar to the folk
lusheng). Â On top of
the rhythmic patterns, I
imitated a two--voice
folk song of Zhuang
minority people in the
same province. Â The
melody is played by the
leading erhu and
dizi.—Chen Yi.

Inspi
red by Chinese tradition,
this concerto-like dance
suite includes: 1. Lion
Dance, 2. YangKo, and 3.
Muqam. Each movement
draws from melodies and
rhythms characteristic of
various regions of China
many centuries ago.
CHINESE FOLK DANCE SUITE
is available for violin
with full orchestra, or
as a recital work with
piano. Supported by a
major commissioning award
from the Serge
Koussevitzky Music
Foundation in the Library
of Congress, Chinese Folk
Dance Suite is written
for solo violin and
orchestra; it was
premiered by The
Women’s
Philharmonic with violin
soloist Terrie Baune,
conducted by Apo Hsu, on
March 10, 2001, at Yerba
Buena Center For the Arts
Theater in San
Francisco.Inspired by
various Chinese
traditional folk dances,
the suite has three
movements:I. Lion Dance.
Traditionally, people
dance with richly
decorated hand-made
lions, accompanied by
percussion ensemble, to
celebrate happy occasions
and major festivals
throughout the country.
In this composition, I
use Chinese drum and
other percussion
instruments in the
background, to form a
dynamic and rhythmic
texture responding to the
solo part, which imitates
the tunes played on the
suona (traditional
Chinese trumpet). The
pitch materials came from
the traditional Guangdong
tune “Dragon Boat
Racing,†and the
Chaozhou tune “Lion
Playing Ball.â€II.
YangKo. Originating in
northern China, this is a
major folk dance form in
mass performance
popularized in the
country. In YangKo
performance, people play
rhythmic patterns on the
drums hung around their
waists while singing and
dancing. In the second
movement, I imagined a
warm scene of YangKo
dancing in distance. The
solo violin plays a sweet
and gracious melodic line
while all members of the
orchestra sing
non-pitched syllables in
different layers as the
soft background, to
imitate the percussion
sound which produces the
ever-going pulse.III.
Muqam. This large-scale
music and dance form,
from the Uygur
nationality in Xinjiang
province, originated in
the 15th century. My
third movement use a 7/8
meter and the melodic
style of Muqam music. The
fiery dancing gesture
culminates in the
sustained climax section
at the end of the work,
after a colorful violin
cadenza in both
improvisational singing
style and polyphonic
writing with woven
lines.
