Sound of Dragon 《龍吟滄海》 – Lan Tung (2014)
－ 1-3 soloists & chamber orchestra or intercultural orchestra or Chinese orchestra
Composed for Vancouver’s inaugural Sound of Dragon Music Festival in May 2014, Sound of Dragon starts with a phrase from a famous Chinese folk melody “Crazy Snake Dance”. Snakes are nicknamed small dragons to bring good luck. But Lan’s work quickly departs into a new world, with a touch of African rhythms and improvised solos. This piece was composed shortly after Lan’s return from a trip to Morocco.

為慶祝2014年舉辦的第一屆龍吟滄海音樂節，做為藝術總監，董籃以傳統「金蛇狂舞」曲調為出發，融入非洲摩洛哥音樂元素，創作《龍吟滄海》。此曲由溫哥華跨文化管弦樂團首演，後改編給2015年成立的龍吟滄海樂團，成為其保留曲目。
