So pretty. I really like it. --> I guess Prince of Egypt 'stole' the tune. Man, we Americans can't get anything right! (Except the way to beat anorexia. Haha)
It was composed by Mr Liu, Tieshan and Mr Mao, Ruan in 1950s. Originally, they wrote it as orchestral music; but later, another musician Mr Peng, Xiuwen transformed it into traditional Chinese tune in 1954. Thats why probable it sounds a bit unique as oppose to the other ones written purely in a Chinese style. It does incorporate the western style into Chinese tradition.
@tinyxue 10 years ago my school played this piece. We combined the Chinese orchestra with the symphonic band. That explains why we were able to blend the two.
which came first this CHINESE SONG OR mariah carey or houston songs. for all we know this CHINESE SONG have been played and sang hundreds of years ago befire the american singer were concieved. how about that.
my question is which came first,this chinese music or the mariah carey song or houston song. for all the remarks, the two later singers may have copied the chinese music. how about that.
I still remember in the 80s when I was learning Erhu. My teacher used to play this song when I was so impressed that I try to imitate as a beginner. 8 years later, I joined a local Chinese Orchestra and have a chance to take part in playing (as Gaohu) the version you are hearing. I was so glad and thrilled. Thank you for the composer. You've inspired me for my interests in Chinese music for the past 25 years.
Oh only talking about notes, you're right. And that, proves music is not equal to notes or scores or rhythm...
I knew this melody in my childhood and I got to hear "I will" years after, already in my adolescence. I love both but I'd never got that conextion like you did... They are just totally different to me, and NOT because their notes are different since "-ful (song)".
We're able to love different things not because they might "share" sth that seems to be the same.
haha, what a coicidence, i was looking up When You Believe on wikipedia, and found out the first 18 notes are from here, so i came here to check it out, and the first comment i see is yours, lol
Okay, people, this is a traditional Chinese piece, it's so much older than the theme song from Prince of Egypt. So, if anything, it is the latter that sounds like this piece, not the other way around.
the tune in this piece is very popular, though i dunno if it has been used in any movie. or maybe i should say it sounds like the theme from the Disney movie "Prince of Egypt".
@m00nk00ki3, We should say the reverse, 'Prince of Egypt' is a lot like this song. This is because when this song was composed, many other nations are still wearing banana leaves covering their body..
So serene & calming can imagine almost anything!
