- Description
-
Mirror of Stars for piano solo (1992) is a work which has the largest number of pianissimo parts of all my works. I arranged it for chamber concerto almost without changing the solo piano part. I added just a short introduction and lightly powdered the solo part with orchestral sound. At the few forte parts，pressurized expanding sounds appear，too. This is the very first time for me to arrange my work in this way. It brought me an interesting and new experience including unexpected predictions and results.
