Gao Hong weaves ancient pipa traditions into full Western orchestral arrangements, as she composes, orchestrates, and performs four concertos for the instrument. Recorded at Abbey Road Studios with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, her works forge a striking cultural fashion, giving the Chinese lute a bold new voice in classical music. Symphony of Self also includes Celebration, performed by “The President’s Own” United States Marine Band, showcasing her remarkable versatility in writing for both orchestra and full band.
