In 2011, the Seattle-Kaohsiung Sister Cities Association approached me and asked me to write a small piece about Taiwan. When the Kaohsiung City delegation came to Seattle to participate in the Seattle International Friendship City event, they could be played by Americans, which was different from the previous welcoming events where Chinese faces played their own folk music instruments. Hence this little work.
It was originally written for several instruments of a small band at the time, piano, a flute, a clarinet, two violins, a viola, and a cello seven instruments. Later, in 2011, it was changed to the Symphony Orchestra. In 2016 the local community band Bayshore Symphony collaborated with me and gave me half time, which included this piece.
