Taste of Asia

Taste of Asia (1995) more music like this

by Various Artists

This 14-track collection covers six artists from Laos, Thailand, China, and Indonesia, so it does offer a real taste of several styles, rather than the usual scattering of baubles provided by most samplers. Most of the tracks are quite accessible. "Pheng Sat Niao," with its accordion-like mouth organ and its two-step beat, sounds like Laotian ...

Pipa from a Distance

Pipa from a Distance (2003) more music like this

by Wu Man

An album of extraordinarily exploratory pipa music from the main ambassador of the instrument to the West, Wu Man. Here, there is a definite aspect of traditional pipa music present, but that's only the jumping-off point. There's some thorough culture-mixing as a didgeridoo is tossed in here and there. Some heavy updating of the ancient forms ...

Wu Man and Friends

Wu Man and Friends (2005) more music like this

by Wu Man and Friends

Chinese pipa player Wu Man loves mix'n'match styles, and obviously isn't afraid of a challenge. This time around she takes her tradition and melds it with instruments, singers, and music from the U.S., Ukraine, and Uganda. Unlikely as that sounds, it works well. Yet it's not a deliberate fusion as such; instead everything seems quite relaxed and ...

Chinese Traditional and Contemporary Music (2000) more music like this

by Wu Man

Wu Man's second solo album is a slightly more mature effort that places the pipa master in a more refined chamber music setting, accompanied by Liu Qi-Chao on flute, Yang Yi on plucked zither, and Tien-Juo Wang on bowed violin. The quartet works exceptionally well together on songs like "Niao Tou Lin (Birds in the Forest)" and Xiyang Xiaogu (Flute ...

Posture of Reality (2003) more music like this

by Wu Man

Wu Man is an internationally recognized Chinese pip'a (four-stringed instrument) artist. Here, she teams with Chicago bassist Tatsu Aoki, whose Japanese heritage and acute jazz vernacular provide an interesting framework for the concepts explored here. With this release, the duo is captured live at the Museum of Contemporary Art. Throughout these ...

Chinese Music for the Pipa

Chinese Music for the Pipa (1993) more music like this

by Wu Man

Wu Man, one of the foremost masters of the four-stringed Chinese lute, is equally comfortable playing traditional Chinese music, more contemporary forms, or even unprecedented stylistic fusions like her work with Bill Laswell and Liu Sola. A brilliant overview of Chinese music, her Western recording debut is a virtuosic solo performance of seven ...
