Wei Li & Fei Song - Autumn Yearning Fantasia

"Those of you who know my work at First Impression Music also know of my passion for fine Chinese instrumental performances and recordings. Autumn Yearning Fantasia is the fifth in our series exploring the possibilities of this genre. I must say that I think it is a special recording - special because it conveys the level of artistry and achievement exhibited by the fine new younger generation of Chinese musicians, who are now coming into their own. The musicians who participated in this project are all young talents. One could observe that their experience is not equivalent to that of older masters, and that would certainly be true. One could also say that their skill in expression is not as mature as that of their elders, and this would also be true. However, their artistry with their instruments is in no way inferior to their mentors; their creativity, vigor, and passionate expression in their music are definitely bringing freshness and joy to their audiences!" - Winston MA, First Impression Music
