{"product_id":"natalie-douglas-lin-yim-patrick-gobi-canticle","title":"Natalie Douglas Lin \/ Yim,Patrick- Gobi Canticle (CD)","description":"\u003cp\u003eGobi Canticle brings together eleven works for solo violin, violin and viola, and violin duo by ten composers of Asian heritage, many presented here in first recordings. Performed by Natalie Lin Douglas and Patrick Yim, longstanding advocates for new music with extensive experience commissioning, premiering, and recording contemporary repertoire, the album spans a wide expressive range from ritual and folk-derived sound worlds to contrapuntal studies and contemporary virtuosity. At it's centre is Lei Liang's Gobi Canticle, shaped by Mongolian musical traditions, microtonal inflection, and percussive string techniques. Zhou Tian's Duo provides a compact, high-energy showpiece, while Chen Yi's Energetic Duo distils rhythmic drive and color into a striking miniature. Several works draw on literary and seasonal imagery: Kai-Young Chan's Echoes of the Autumn Night reflects Tang-dynasty poetry through Cantonese speech rhythms, and Jungyoon Wie's Dan Poong traces the quiet transformation of autumn leaves. Across the program, composers engage imaginatively with string technique-scordatura, harmonics, ricochet bowing, hocketing, and microtonal tuning-creating a palette that is both refined and immediate. The result is a coherent collection that highlights individual compositional voices while revealing shared concerns with timbre, gesture, and cultural memory. Recorded in Watertown, Massachusetts, Gobi Canticle documents a significant body of contemporary duo repertoire and showcases two performers deeply committed to new music and collaboration.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLei Liang: Gobi Canticle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZhou Tian: Duo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChen Yi: Energetic Duo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKai-Young Chan: Echoes of the Autumn Night\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYao Chen: Four Mini Duets: Chinese Dolls\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTexu Kim: Homage to Anonymous Ancient Fiddlers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeilina Tsui: Etude for Violin and Viola\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClarence Mak: The Approach of the Day\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLei Liang: Lakescape III\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDoming Lam: Retrograde\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJungyoon Wie: Dan Poong (Autumn Leaves)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cp\u003eUPC \u0026gt; 5060189564767\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFormat \u0026gt; New CD\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLabel \u0026gt; Orchid Classics\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShop online at \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/shop.darksiderecords.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eDarkside Records\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFollow us on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/darksiderecordspk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eInstagram\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance - BT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47425825013981,"sku":"5060189564767","price":124.0,"currency_code":"CNY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/1056\/6043\/files\/4494684-3531248.jpg?v=1771274650","url":"https:\/\/darksiderecords.myshopify.com\/zh-cn\/products\/natalie-douglas-lin-yim-patrick-gobi-canticle","provider":"Darkside Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
