About Gong-Qian Yang

   Composer, Producer, Publisher

                     and

              Concert Artist

 

“Music should spark our

passion, awaken our hope,     

refresh our feelings, and

 enlighten our heart.”

---  by Gong-Qian Yang,  

a  Chinese American composer, soloist and concert violinist

who has been unanimously acclaimed by the

audience, colleagues, and publicities for his superb

artistry as well as his outstanding music talents.

 

 

As the first prize winner twice of Starling International

Scholarship Foundation U.S., Yang has been winning

standing ovation in his solo concerts. While

enjoying a successful career as soloist and concert

artist, Yang has always kept a keen interest

in music composition. He studied a wide range of

repertoire and huge diversity of music.  He has

been working diligently on the combination of the very best

from eastern and western music.  Yang’s music is now

reaching far  and broad both in the U.S. and internationally.

In his opinion, it is best to let music emotion flow and

unfold freely without excess structural restrain.   He believes

that music can reach and touch humans' heart. Yang refers

some of his music as twenty-first century classic.

 He has often been inspired by the harmony between all

creatures of the universe. Yang says his music is a

gift and inspiration from the nature.

 

In the Symphonic Poem Nature and Me, Yang has shared

the feeling of harmony and intimacy between nature and

all of the creatures in the grand universe through the

dialogues between the flute, French horn, harp, and strings.

The unfolding music is the process of constant development

and resolution, like unfolding real life. The whole piece

radiates infinite life energy that glorifies the beauty of the

great universe, and, of course, the beauty of humans living

within. In his music, as an important part of orchestral

sonority for richer and more flexible music expression Yang added a vocal part in Nature and Me Symphonic Poem.

 

Tower Records has recently released Yang’s music album

Sonic Poem; a digital download is available on Apple Itunes

and soon on Vcast and MusicNet. China Global Business

has highly commented on Yang's artistry on a featured article

in early May, 2006.
