The Egret's Wishesfor Piano and String Quartet2002
The Egrets Wishes was commissioned by
the Egret Cultural and Educational Foundation (ECEF). The piece consists four
sections, and the composer developed the main motives and elements from the
melody of a Taiwanese children's rhyme, The
Little Egret, as the base of this composition.
Although there are always subtle differences change steadily in every section,
the development of the main motives are very simple and clear in this piece, implies
as if the diversities will finally purify and unite to one simple concept/idea,
even they are developed in different ways. This symbolizes the little egret
flies over different mountains and valleys, but always seeking the way to the
only place for peace and happiness.
The Egrets Wishes was premiered in the
National Cocnert Hall on 25th of August 2002. It was pragrammed in a
concert of "The 2nd Taiwan-Canada Summer Music
Festival". The world premiere
musicians were Kiai Nara (Piano), Edmond Agopian (Violin I), Meng-Ping Wu
(Violin II), Jui-Se Yang (Viola) and I-Wen Lin (Cello).
