Tan Dun launched a new work, "Five Souls", which is a "Metacosmic Symphony". On March 3, the new Metacosmic Symphony, "Five Souls", by famous composer and conductor Tan Dun, was officially released worldwide. He said that the cooperation with Decca Classics would begin with this new work. In February this year, Dika Records, the classical music brand of Universal Music Group, officially signed with Tan Dun, a musician. Tom Lewis and Laura Monks, co-presidents of Deca Music Group, said: "We are very proud to announce that Tan Dun is welcome to join Deca Records. He is a world-renowned classical musician, and can be said to be one of the most creative, energetic and enthusiastic composers in the world today. His creations all reflect that music can change people's lives in a unique way." Tan Dun said that he has always had two goals in his mind: "I don't only want to establish a music concept, but also want to develop a cross-cultural concept, combining nature with classical music, and integrating ancient music with modern music, "There we will find our spirit, who we are and what we are destined to become." The five singles of this new Metacosmic Symphony correspond to five movements (H? O Tempo/Water Speed Color, Horch/Listening, WE (West East)/West Thinking, Meta Voyage/Yuanyuxing, Dream Rhythm/Dream). A small ensemble of five movements, including water percussion, harp, brass, strings, and didgeridoo. "Metauniverse symphony is an idea and philosophy of artistic creation," Tan Dun told the surging news reporter that Metauniverse is a very popular topic in culture and commerce in recent years, and naturally permeates into his life and creative thinking. "For me, the Metacosmic Symphony has evolved more into an idea and philosophy of artistic creation, and it also provides a scientific and technological atmosphere for music creation. For Chinese people, the concept of Metacosmic actually flashed in the thought of Lao Zhuang more than 2000 years ago. In ancient Indian, there are also five aggregates of heaven and earth (in Buddhism, the five aggregates are color, reception, thought, action, and knowledge, meaning accumulation or harmony.) In fact, Taoism and Zen have a great influence on my creation. " "In Beethoven's creative era, when he wrote" Pastoral ", there were neither videos nor photos. Their thinking about nature and the universe came from imagination and abstract description, but the universe view in the work was time-space. In the current world, everyone is so crazy about sharing the concept of the metauniverse, but in general, it is not beyond the imagination of Lao Zhuang and the sixth ancestor Huineng. I am creating" Ode to Compassion " At that time, I was deeply influenced by the universe view of the five aggregates of heaven and earth in the Heart Sutra. Later, I made this idea the source of the five titles in the new album. In the process of performing and recording "Five aggregates", there is not only an abstract
