絲綢之路 Silk Road 庇詩中樂團 BCCO

BCCMA 30th Anniversary - Celebrating Chinese Classics Concert June 15, 2025 - Chan Centre for the Performing Arts Silk Road - Ying Jiang 絲綢之路 - 姜瑩 Conductor: Peggy Hua 指揮: 華偲然 《絲綢之路》是作曲家姜莹創作的民族管弦樂作品。樂曲充分展現了民族樂器的特色，尤其是絲綢之路沿線發展起來的彈撥樂器的顆粒聲響，還融合了弗拉明戈、探戈和踢踏舞的節奏元素。作品結構上節奏逐漸加強，氣氛逐步推向高潮，像來自四面八方的朝聖隊伍，將生命與夢想匯聚成絲綢之路上的長河。這部作品凝聚了作曲家的青春夢想，已成為當代民族管弦樂的代表作。 “Silk Road” is an orchestral work by Jiang Ying. It highlights traditional Chinese instruments, especially the plucked strings popular along the Silk Road, and blends rhythms from flamenco, tango, and tap dance. The music builds momentum gradually, leading to a strong climax, like pilgrim caravans gathering from all directions. It expresses life, passion, and dreams flowing like a long river on the Silk Road. This piece reflects the composer’s youthful vision and is a key work in modern Chinese orchestral music.
