English. Traditional
Chinese Folk
Song.
This
traditional Chinese folk
song tells of a young lad
who travels far from his
village, holding fond
memories of a loved one.
After an expressive
opening solo, the tempo
picks up in this
authentic and spirited
arrangement, which
includes both Mandarin
and English text. See
below for a pronunciation
video spoken by the
arranger. Growing up in
multiracial Malaysia,
Jerry Lim was immersed in
various European,
American, and Asian
music, giving him a
unique perspective on
integrating Western and
Eastern styles.
