Musicus Society’s commissioned work, The Dream of the Red Chamber Suite is now available here.
Based on one of the greatest classical Chinese epics that has enraptured readers for generations, The Dream of the Red Chamber Suite for Cello and Chinese Orchestra was created in this first musical collaboration between Mainland China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan. From the original score of mainland composer Wang Liping, the work was re-arranged by Taiwan composer Tung Chao-ming and our Artistic Director cellist Trey Lee from Hong Kong. It was recorded in Taipei in 2013 by Trey with the National Chinese Orchestra Taiwan under the baton of renowned conductor Yan Huichang.
