Features: This collection of compositions includes fourteen pieces of varying lengths, genres, and moods. All of them draw inspiration from Chinese folk music, with origins spanning across different regions and ethnic groups from north to south, east to west. They are all intended for piano performance, yet they truly display a rich tapestry of colors. The piano art itself is originally a Western import, and in Eastern countries, including China, making it "relatively popular" has not been an easy task. In recent years, more and more children in China have taken up learning the piano, which is a positive development for the popularization of piano art. However, Chinese works that possess distinct national characteristics and are "relatively popular" are still far from meeting the needs of the surging wave of piano learners. As for creating more Chinese works that can be widely loved by the majority of audiences in China to further popularize piano art, this is even more challenging.
