Product Description

This song has 14 chapters representing 12 waltzes mixed. The music sheet has 213 pages and can be electronically converted to a soundtrack playing for about 21 minutes. Some songs (chapters) were composed of ancient Chinese poems by famous poets like Liu Bang, Bai Juyi, Tao Yuan-ming, Su Dong-po, et al. A video with the same title has been posted on YouTube.com, which contains more than 130 images of photos and a few short videos with the background melody of this song. Although most of the songs were published before as early as 2008 and later, the author re-composed carefully based on his memory with certain modifications and key signature changes to adjust an even playing of the song in one whole piece. The highlights of the stories' songs are as follows: The beginning part of the song is originally called the prelude of Tao Yuan-ming's "The Eutopia of the Peach Land Spring"; which is followed by the historical long poem of 616 Chinese characters called "Pi Pa Xing" by Bai Ji-yi around 1:30. Around 8:06 is a small bird feeding her young chicken and its tail-dancing matches with the melody of the song which was modified from Beijing Opera by the composer. Around 11:30 is the song called "Wedding Waltz" for Su Dong-po's poem "Written on the West Wood Wall"; around 13:40 is the "Chi Le Song"; around 14:00 to 15:00 is the song - "Love Forever", which was jointly created with his son Raymond and his wife Catherine 25 years ago. The playing time at 15:30 is the song the author wrote for his poem called "Life and Sea in 100 Chinese Characters"; around 18:00 to 19:00 is "King's Wedding" by the author. Two songs around 11:00 are "Raise the Championship Cup" and 19:30 "Bon Voyage" which the composer wrote for the 2008 Bejing Olympic Games.
