WTJU May 14th, 2021 | By Ralph Graves
May is designated Asian/Pacific American Heritage Month. The Classics a Day team adopted that theme as well. For the month of May, the challenge is to post examples of classical music composed or performed by artists who share that heritage.
I limited myself to just posting Asian-American composers. And discovered a seemingly limitless number of composers to choose from both past and present.
Here are my picks for the second week of #ClassicsaDay #APAHM
05/10/21 Zhou Long – Postures Concerto for Piano and Orchestra
This Chinese composer writes, “I have been composing music seriously to achieve my goal of improving the understanding between peoples from various backgrounds.”
