New music composed by pianist Zhen Chen and live performed with violinist Cho-liang Lin, Elmira Darvarova, Pipa artist Lin Ma, Violist Milan Milisavljević, Cellist David Geber at Greene Space of WNYC/WQXR.
In the time of difficulty in a foreign land, newly acquainted friends and hometown fellows become the only small community that a new immigrant can fall back on. In LULLABY, the tightness of the performance of the string quartet forms a solid foundation that supports the music progression and the performance of the pipa, in the same way that a group of friends backs the growth of a new immigrant. The calming harmony on the string quartet part contrasts with the bitter melody of the pipa and wraps the pipa in a warm humming. The quartet sings, “This is a home away from home,” as the pipa confides in them.
