for string quartet
This work, in eight short movements, is based upon Chinese mountain songs, works songs, and popular tunes. Playable either as a unified suite or individually as encores, Zhou's folk song arrangements will appeal equally to younger players, conservatory, students, and professionals.

A version for string orchestra is also available on hire.

Zhou Long is internationally recognized for creating a unique body of music that brings together the aesthetic concepts and musical elements of East and West. Deeply grounded in the entire spectrum of his Chinese heritage, including folk, philosophical, and spiritual ideals, he is a pioneer in transferring the idiomatic sounds and techniques of ancient Chinese musical traditions to modern Western instruments and ensembles. Born in Beijing but a United States citizen since 1999, Zhou Long is married to the composer-violinist Chen Yi.
