Produktbeschreibung
The "Dai Pai Dong" is a unique Chinese-style food
stall filled with big woks, large electric fans,
folding tables and chairs. Dai Pai Dong developed
along with Hong Kong and is an essential part of the
character and culture of Hong Kong. I have chosen to
feature the "Dai Pai Dong" in my orchestral work out
of a desire to promote the unique Hong Kong culture
to people of other countries.
The music divides into three sections and the musical
structure of the piece is based on the typical
Chinese method of frying: first heating up the wok;
then adding ginger, green onion or garlic; stir
frying with other ingredients; and finally seasoning
with salt and other flavors. The music is dominated
by two musical themes with contrasting
characteristics. Both themes are based upon an
exploration of Cantonese throught the menu of the
Cantonese dishes. The use of Cantonese-based themes
represents the friendliness and loyalty of the Hong
Kong people.
