Description
The Chinese Ye Xiaogang is one of the most prominent and successful composers of his country and his generation and is at the same time a brilliant pianist. His music is an unmistakable blend of Eastern and Western traditions. This can also be felt in this one-movement piano piece the title of which refers to the name of a lake in Tibet.
To paint the unmistakable atmosphere of this landscape in terms of music, Ye uses short peaceful motifs that alternate with sparkling tremolos and ascending and descending sound cascades. The softly fading end in the upper register leaves the impression of silence and loneliness. A virtuoso and effective piece for the piano!
