Shàng Shàn Ruò Shui
Award winning at "females featured" competition
In her challenging and atmospheric work Shàng Shàn Ruò Shui, composer and pianist Rosita Piritore works with sound textures that are repeatedly pierced by individual whispered syllables. This work is highly suitable for ambitious amateur choirs looking for an introduction to contemporary music. The rehearsal process is aided by the work’s manageable length and clear structure in very short sections. Rosita Piritore borrowed the text for her work from the Tao Te Ching, a collection of inspirational chapters which, according to legend, were written by the sage Laozi.
An easily
understandable transliteration of the Chinese lyrics is notated as a sung text.
Additional remarks on pronunciation are given in the preface.
