ALBUM

The Hugo Masters comes in a silk-covered box containing notes and music on the gamut of Chinese classical music. This collection was put together by Aik Yew-goh. He was an Oriental Allan Lomax, capturing elder virtuosos. However, he used extremely high quality equipment. Most of the Chinese classical tradition ceased with the 1911 Chinese Revolution. Aik scoured for masters alive before the upheaval. The 4-CD set is broken up by instrumentation: bowed strings, plucked strings, woodwinds and percussion. This Wind Instruments volume brings to my mind sonorous things like oboes. Actually, this is mostly high-pitched flute played brightly with quick, successive notes. It sounds to me like bright red and yellow birds jumping off a rice paper painting. Perhaps as a result, my favorite piece is the most simple, "Morning In Miao Mountain." "Morning" is based on Miao folk tunes and depicts a sunny morning filled with singing birds.
