Primary Voice is a unique fusion series of exotic, emotional, nature music for traditional Chinese and electronic instruments. It is an exploration of combining traditional oriental concepts with modern compositional methods. The ethnic melodies are full of oriental mystery and deep emotions of mankind. The electronic sound and occasional vocals enhance the tone color and imprint with primitive rites, tales, and legends. The music describes unadorned beauty and expresses human’s instinctive desire. Primary Voice was underwritten by the American Composers Forum with funds provided by the Jerome Foundation. It is performed by members of Melody of China.
