A Moving Sound
WORLD MUSIC
Tuesday, March 23, 7:30 p.m.
Weis Center Concert Hall
Fusing traditional Taiwanese influences with a global sensibility, award-winning ensemble A Moving Sound (Sheng Don or 聲動) has built a worldwide following through their joyous mix of original music and dance. Featuring the distinctive timbres of the erhu (fiddle) and zhong ruan (lute), and the transcendent vocals of Mia Hsieh, A Moving Sound has devised a unique and compelling style that is all its own: a Taiwanese whirlwind that veers between the meditative and the exuberant with irrepressible spirit. A Moving Sound has been featured on BBC Radio 3, NPR's All Things Considered and on the Discovery Channel.
A Moving Sound is co-directed by Hsieh (vocals, dance) and Scott Prairie (zhong ruan, bass guitar) and are joined in the ensemble by Sho-u Ray (erhu), Chih-Ling Chen (zhong ruan) and Yu-Hsin Chen (percussion).
