Fall 1998 B R I G H T S H E N G 'PEOPLE ACKNOWLEDGE ARTISTIC LICENSE; I EMBRACE CULTURAL LICENSE.' Since moving to the United States from China in 1982, the composer Bright Sheng has steadily built a world reputation for his fusion of Eastern and Western musical styles. Sheng's gifts of adaptability and openness were nurtured and steeled in his youth, as he struggled to maintain his passion for music in the anti-cultural climate of the Cultural Revolution . At Queens College, the City University and Columbia, his main teachers were Leonard Bernstein, Chou WenChung and George Perie. Sheng's one-act opera The Song of Majnun with librettist Andrew Porter was recorded on the Delos label by the Houston Grand Opera. His discography also includes a first runner-up for the 1989 Pulitzer Prize, H'UN (Laceration): In Memoriam 1966-1976 , an orchestral portrait depicting the crimes and losses inflicted by the Cultural Revolution (New World label), and Two Folk Songs From Qinghai (Kock International). He was again first runner-up for the Pulitzer in 1991 for Four Movements for Piano Trio. Michigan Today

Home Silk Road Bright Sheng Qinghai Updated 25 July 2000 The province of Qinghai holds special importance for Bright Sheng , as he lived there for seven years, from 1971 to 1978, during China's Cultural Revolution. In this excerpt from the Fall 1995 issue of , Sheng introduced us to his adopted homeland: Infobytes about the Province of Qinghai: This province, still an unspoilt nature preserve, features an enormous salt lake, "Qinghai Hu." China's biggest lake, it is the size of a small sea, and is home to thousands of birds. Long fought over by Chinese immigrants, the Tibetans, and Muslims, Qinghai has had a firmly established Han Chinese presence only around the capital city of Xining. This minority presence is still felt strongly in the province today, with substantial Tibetan, Hui (Muslim), Salar, Tu, Mongol, and Kazakh populations. Mineral deposits and oil have been discovered recently in the arid high desert near Qinghai's northwest border with Xinjiang. Extensive mining is underway, not to mention a gold rush! Itinerary G.
