  Liu Fang

  "Le Son de Soie" (Silk Sound)

  Liu Fang is a Chinese-born virtuoso of the pipa, a pear-shaped Chinese lute, and the guzheng zither. She left China to live in Montreal via Berlin and along the way has met artists of various traditions including African and Western which have had a dramatic effect on her performance style

  'Le Son de Soie' reflects this diversity and is a selection of classic Chinese repertoire reinterpreted on the pipa and guzheng zither blended with instruments and musical elements from various other cultures as well as improvisation. It contains a variety of rich and colourful pieces with programmatic titles that Debussy would have been proud of (Accords Croisés AC116)
