About the event
"L'esquisse d'un printemps perdu" will be premiered on December 3 by Shanghai Philharmonic Orchestra. This new piece for bamboo flute, pipa and big orchestra has been composed on Meng Hoaran's poems. The piece has been dedicated to Marjan Fouladvind and published by Impronta - Edition UG. It's a unique event where international composers from France, Iran, Colombia, South Korea, Hungry, South Africa and China wrote pieces using traditional Chinese Instruments.
L'esquisse d'un printemps perdu The poem is not a mere description but a successful attempt to transmit the emotional turmoil nature can create. For Haoran nature is a great source of inspiration on all levels. "Esquisse d’un Printemps Perdu" further emphasizes on the paradox observed by Haoran. Contrasted characters represented by the duality of sound registers and orchestration is one of many techniques I have used to translate Hoaran's writing.
