Commissioned by the Barlow Endowment for Music Composition at Brigham Young University, my two-movement trio Tibetan Tunes is written for the New Pacific Trio (Igor Veligan, violin, Nina Flyer, cello, and Sonia Leong, piano) and premiered at the Conservatory of Music at University of the Pacific on Jan. 27, 2007 in Stockton, California. The first movement is inspired by a Tibetan folk tune Du Mu played on a recorder Xiongling. The music presents the rich gestures of Du Mu (a name of a god in Tibetan Buddhism) in a serene mood. Dui Xie is a kind of Tibetan folk ensemble music with a same tune in the introduction and the coda, played with the plucking instrument Zhamunie, the bamboo flute and the fiddle Erhu, often performed with singing and tap dancing. The pitch materials of the second movement Dui Xie are drawn from the folk ensemble music and a lyrical Tibetan folk song Amaliehuo. The work is adapted for clarinet (in B-flat), cello and piano, under the request of clarinetist, Prof. Zhu Shuang of Hainan University, to be premiered in December 2019 in Hainan University, Haikou City, Hainan Province, China.
