This was my entry piece for the Foshan Composers Contest 2022. The motivation for participating was as follows: 1. It was a unique challenge for me to get acquainted with classical Chinese musical instruments and Chinese music. 2. It was also a challenge to write a piece that is an synthesis of my own musical language with the music of Foshan, in an idiom that is accessible to the people of Foshan and centered on a theme of my own. 3. I chose the erhu and the pipa because they appeal to me - in addition to the western flute, viola and cello - and because I wanted to limit myself to a quintet in the first piece in which Chinese instruments appear.
