Comment:

Listener Status 38. This mix is missing alot of information because most of it is taken off of bootleg CDs I bought on the streets in Xi'an, China when I lived there for 2 years. I made this mix as a sort of intro to the sound of Chinese music for a group of teachers and principals who I am bringing to China for 2 weeks in July, as an annual Chinese Cultural Immersion Program I run in Chicago for educators. I wanted to bave lots of different sounds represented, and to finsih it off with a more contemporary sound, Wang Fei, who is my favorite Chinese singer. Track 4 is from the "Last Emperor" soundtrack, and Track 8 is from the "Croutching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" soundtrack.
