| Quote: | This recording features traditional instruments used in Mongolian music. Although the music is instrumental there are themes to each song. The themes include riding horses, daily ritual, lovesongs and worksongs.
The ensemble was founded in June 1999. All its members have studied at the academy of music in Ulaanbaatar.
Tumbash is a symbol for four animals which live together. According to an Indian fairy-tale, a pigeon, a hare, a monkey and an elephant lived peacefully and happily together. Through their cooperation these animals prospered. The animals helped an oppressed people to free themselves from their oppressors.
The word "tumbash" is also mentioned in the ancient Sutra "Subashid", the Treasure of Wisdom. |
| Quote: | The quartet Ensemble Tumbash presents a collection of 38 Mongolian bogino duu (or "short songs") on Ayalguu: Vol. I. To quote the liner notes, "Bogino duu is a short song that is strophic, syllabic and rhythmically tied, and it is sung without ornaments." These songs are improvised and take as their subject matter love, everyday life and animals. Given the importance of horses in Mongolian culture, it's no SPAMise that they are favorite topics for these short songs. The whole collection runs over an hour.
Ensemble Tumbash (which takes its name from an Indian folktale about four different animals that work together in harmony) presents these songs as instrumental pieces. A synopsis of each tune's subject is given in the liner notes, but it would be nice to see some translations of lyrics or to hear at least some of the songs sung. The musicians are Ts. Batgerel on morin khuur (two-stringed horsehair violin), S. Sarangerel on shudraga or shanz (a sort of lute), Z. Selenge on yoochin (zither) and Ch. Enkhjargal on limbe (flute).
To someone unfamiliar with Mongolian music, the immediate comparison springing to mind will probably be Chinese music. The combination of flute and string instruments has a Chinese feel. The CD covers a wide range of moods, which keeps it from getting monotonous, but any long album of music like this can't help turning into background music for those not specifically interested in its subject. It is very pleasant background music, though, with the flute and strings giving a bright and often lively feel to the music. Sometimes (as on "Tsokhiuryn ai"), there is a mandolin-like sound; this comes from the shudraga, which needs to have its strings struck repeatedly to hold a single note.
Listening to the music while reading the liner notes shows that a song's subject is often reflected in the sound of the song. "Mogoi kheer," for example, is a song about a racehorse and one can hear the rhythm of galloping hooves (and even neighing!) in the strings. The song is topped off with a sample of a real horse galloping, but the music makes the point all by itself and such sound effects are rare on the album.
This may be more Mongolian music than most people need in their music collections, but it is an enjoyable album that will surely urge some to dig deeper into bogino duu and Mongolian music in general. - Jennifer Hanson |

8. Yan Guo Nanlou (Geese Crossing Over The Southern Mansion - Pt. 2) 8:02
| Quote: | | If you've never heard the sacred music of Buddhist China, prepared to be seduced by its simple charms. On compositions anchored by the understated rhythms of a variety of drums, cymbals, and gongs, hypnotic webs of melody are spun by the powerful guanzi (a double reed pipe), which rides atop the chords produced by the sheng (mouth organ) as the playful flute fills in the space with its darting bumblebee scale gymnastics. Highly spiritual and deeply moving, Buddhist Music of Tianjin may not be for everyone, but it is a welcome introduction to the ancient traditions of a rich musical culture. - Bret Love |

| Quote: | On this new album from Ocora, Chen Leiji performs solo qin zither recordings from the Zhucheng school (Shandong, N.E. China). The music from the Prunus Hermitage was written in 1931 and the collection of compositions heard here is the last remaining example of this unique style. During the Cultural Revolution, the qin was banned as an "aristocratic" instrument. Leiji began to study the instrument with Master Gong Yi at age 9 and is now considered the instrument's leading exponent. Also trained in western classical music, Leiji contributes to the rebirth of this thousand-year-old instrument by taking part in the creation of contemporary classical works such as the “concerto for instrument of silence” written for him in 1996 by Chen Qigang and by performing with Nieuw Ensemble of Amsterdam.

| Quote: | | The pipa (sometimes written p'i-p'a to indicate its Chinese pronunciation) is the traditional Chinese lute. This instrument came to China from Central Asia at least 2,000 years ago, and probably before. Around a thousand years ago, the instrument and its style of playing went through major changes. Its fabrications changed, musicians came to hold it vertically instead of horizontally, as they did previously. Because of this new playing position, it could become a much more virtuositic instrument. Wang Weiping is a virtuoso of the pipa. She offers, on this CD, a series of traditional and contemporary pieces for pipa and voice, including two of her own compositions and a piece for the instrument and xiao (a traditional bamboo flute). Aside from exquisitely playing pipa, she sings. The charm of Chinese music! ~ Bruno Deschênes |
| Quote: | Born in Xi’an, former capital of the Empire during the Tang dynasty (618-907), she studied the pipa with her mother Guo Xiuzhen then in the Xi’an and Beijing music conservatories. Her talent was early remarked and she awarded national prizes, of which the Central Television award.
She has given many concerts in China, Hong-Kong, Macao and in Europe.
Pipa-soloist of the "Shaanxi Song and Dance Ensemble", she has particularly participated in 85 and 90 to many representations across Japan. She played for the Emperor and Empress of Japan during their visit of China in 1992.
In Paris, she was invited for a solo concert at the “ Théâtre de la Ville” and at “Radio-France” where a C.D. has been recorded under Ocora label.
She regularly plays within the traditional Chinese music ensemble “Fleur de Prunus” directed by François Picard and within the baroque ensemble “XVIII-21” of Jean-Christophe Frisch.
She also plays contemporary music : creation of “Noich” by Fabien Tehericsen with the Quatuor Arditti, creation at The Louvre of a piece of Xu Yi with the "2E2M" ensemble, belgium creation of the pipa and orchestra concerto of Tan Dun with the "Ensemble Musiques Nouvelles". In year 2002, she played in China with the Cergy-Pontoise Conservatory ensemble.
Wang Weiping composes herself some pieces putting in value the capabilities of her instrument.
She came to France to study lyric singing with Xin RuFeng and Alain Rigo at the “Ecole Normale de Musique” (Paris).
"Like the antic princess Wang Zhaojun who, exiled after the Great Wall, accompanying herself with the pipa, song the nostalgia of her mother land, Wang Weiping put her elaborated technique at the service of the greater musicality. Interpreting the thousand old pieces which resounded in the imperial court, she evokes the tumult of the wars as well as the odes to the moon light. She is also a remarkable singer, as expressive with Cantonese songs of the thirties as in the works celebrating the Nature, composed by the Tang dynasty poets." (François Picard) |
| Quote: | | The Pipa is a lute with four strings. It is played in solo since the Tang Dynasty. The utilization of harmonics, tapings and rolling with the right hand in order to make the tremolos characteristic of the pipa, give a great range of timbers to the instrument. The frets located on the handle and the harmonic table, allow lateral displacements of the cords, creating rich ornaments games, providing very particular attracts to the instrument. The pipa, certainly originated from Central Asia, was in the earlier times played in private circles of amateurs and has a very rich repertory. The first notations date from the end of the Xth century, and then are multiplying since the end of the XVIIIth century. Several schools are developing, like the North School whom one of the great masters, LIU Dehai was the professor of Wang Weiping. |
