My name, Xuefei, is taken from a poem in one of the oldest and greatest classics of Chinese literature : The Book of Songs. It is a collection of hundreds of poems, & gives a great insight into the lives of Chinese people almost 4,000 years ago. Many of the poems were originally set to music - the poems survive but the music has long been lost. It is the inspiration for a new 6-part piece, “Illustrations to the Book of Songs, written for me by Stephen Goss. Each part gives a musical impression of a scene from this Chinese classic. I will be performing it again this Saturday in Glasgow!
