"As an Asian myth and legend fan, I like all stories about Pangu, the

giant who separates heaven from earth to create the universe. The title

of this CD has caught my interest immediately. To be honest, at first

it was not the music that I had expected to hear. But after the initial

surprise, I found myself intrigued by what I heard. And I listened to

it the third time today. The superb sense of color, interesting

patterns of rhythms and its remarkable imagination appear throughout the whole

disc. I also liked about the fact that this composer does not only

limit herself to create "Chinese" music, but also embraces other styles

such as jazz, pop and avant-garde all together. In short, this is not an

easy listening CD; it is worth of repeated listening and my money! I

highly recommend to anyone who is an adventurous listener. Five stars!!
