Very....VERY interesting work. Zhou Tian has the wonderful ability to bring the past (hints of Claude T. Smith and others that lead the way and opened the door) in perfect connection and expression with the present! BRAVO!!! Exceptional performance and teaching. A truly outstanding ensemble!

An impeccable and totally convincing performance of this ambitious and beautiful piece.

This is incredible! I was hooked from the very beginning. The harmony and orchestration is impeccable; excellent performance, too.
