Interactive of visual, aural and body movements is the idea of this one. Performers are audiences(to watch), audiences are conductors(perform), two groups are interacting based on a dialogue of visual and aural, answer each other by sounds(movements).
WuXing.Water
Cello Jonathan Edwards, Mezzo-soprano Rui Zong
WuXing is a conception from Chinese tradition. It means Five Elements: Water, Wood, Fire, Earth, and Metal. This order of production is known as the "mutual generation" (相生) sequence.
Water fertilize Wood.
Wood generates Fire.
Fire create Earth.
Earth produce Metal.
Metal condensate Water.
Water fertilize Wood.
……
This sequence repeats itself in endless cycles.
Just like the cycle of life.
WuXing.Water is a piece that creating a conception of the relationship between life with Water.
It is not only present in music but also display the composition with the visual image.
I’d like to call this is an experimental work that focuses on Visual-Audio composition.
