Guo Gan - Moon Night

'Moon Night' is Guo Gan's sixth album for Felmay Records. The great virtuoso of erhu (two-stringed Chinese violin of nomadic origin) pays homage to one of the fathers of today's Chinese music: Liu Tian Hua performing ten compositions of the great master for erhu solo.

Liu Tian Hua was an important reformer of the classical musical tradition, through the inclusion of elements of classical European music in classical Chinese (court) music, giving a performing autonomy to two instruments that today often symbolize Chinese music, such as the erhu and the pipe (lute).
