Our Take

OGAWA / RSNO / SEREBRIER's latest album, Xiaogang Ye: Sichuan Image, is a wild ride through a sonic landscape that is as unpredictable as a drunken night out in Glasgow. The RSNO provide a lush orchestral backdrop for composer Ye's intricate and multi-layered compositions, while conductor Serebrier leads the ensemble with the finesse of a seasoned maestro.

From the opening track, "Panda Party," with its pulsating rhythms and evocative melodies, to the hauntingly beautiful "Tea House Moon," this album is a rollercoaster of emotions that will leave you breathless. The fusion of traditional Chinese music with Western orchestration creates a truly unique sound that is both mesmerizing and exhilarating.

Standout tracks include the mesmerizing "Chengdu Dreams," which transports the listener to a mystical realm where anything is possible, and the epic "Mountain Song," with its bombastic brass and thunderous percussion. Each track is a journey in itself, taking the listener on a whirlwind tour of Sichuan province and its rich cultural heritage.

In conclusion, Xiaogang Ye: Sichuan Image is a triumph of creativity and innovation, showcasing the immense talent of all involved. This album is a must-listen for anyone with a love of adventurous and boundary-pushing music. OGAWA / RSNO / SEREBRIER have created a masterpiece that will stand the test of time and cement their place in the pantheon of musical legends.
