CD Reviews

The best of Jia Peng Fang (Erhu)
amazonka | 08/29/2004
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This album is a compilation based on three previously released albums of Jia Peng Fang: 'Faraway...', 'River' and 'Rainbow'.



There is only one new track - No. 7 - 'Bokyo'.



I recommend this album to those customers, who have never heard a beautiful relaxing Asian music of Jia Peng Fang, as well as to those connaisseurs who would like to make a pleasant gift to their friends.



Please note that by the time of this review, Jia Peng Fang relased 2 new CDs - 'Sho' and 'Roman'. A few weeks ago, he released his first DVD with live concert. For the time being these new CDs and the DVD are available only in Japan... But, I know for sure, that sooner or later, they will be released in USA as well. Keep checking..."
Soothing

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I live in Asia, and I've heard the Chinese musical instrument "erhu", since I was young. Erhu has always been use for sad songs or accompany sad stories. What Jia Peng Fang does with erhu in this cd is a refreshing and excellent adaptation to other western instrument accompaniment. Also, this cd is truely a great compilation of the best songs from 2 other of his cds. I highly recommend it!"
A Masterpiece

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This cd has everything one would want: creative orchestration, Fang's solo virtuosity, melodies that transport the listener, and outstanding production value. Appeals to classical, acoustic, and new age listeners."
