| Additional Information |
Concerto for Dan Bau and Chamber Orchestra was written for the Hanoi Philharmonic, who premiered it on December 30, 2002 at the Hanoi National Conservatory of Music, during my stay there as Visiting Artist through a grant from the Asian Cultural Council. The dan bau is a traditional Vietnamese monochord (one stringed instrument) played by plucking at the harmonic nodes and bending the pitch with a water buffalo horn ‘whammy bar’. Ho Hoai Anh was dan bau soloist, and the conductor was Nguyen Thieu Hoa.
