The form of traditional Chinese percussion music has many similarities with African percussion music. These similarities explain why traditional Chinese percussion music still continues to use ancient tribal cultural forms. The more people are involved in a percussion performance, the more sound energy can be produced. This special music language can make the connection between the universe and living beings more direct and palpable. These traditional rhythms have been loved by the public historically. But how to make today’s young pop music lovers pay attention to the tradition? I hope that through my new percussion composition concert, and our ensemble's unique performance style, these traditional Chinese rhythms can attract the ears of today’s young people to a new fashion in the making.
