Tribute to Homeland is adapted from several folklore ‘labelled tunes’ of Henan province’s suona music. ‘Labelled tunes’ refer to melodies from various regional and historical contexts, ranging from those that are closely connected to those that share little or no relation. The structure of the music consists of moderato, allegro and a capriccioso section that uses numerous finger and tongue techniques for additional nuances to the pitch and tone as a reflection of Henan’s opera singing style. A mimicry of percussion instruments further induces humour and colour to the piece. Combined with interesting and wide-ranging textures, this piece is an excellent portrayal of the vibrancy and beauty of the suona in the Henan region.
