Tan Dun's music draws on both Chinese and Western musical languages. The 8 Memories are deft painterly reflections, while in Traces he balances sound with silence in this evocation of nature. The vibrant drama of Blue Orchid incorporates the opening motif of Beethoven's Diabelli Variations. The kaleidoscopic C-A-G-E-, strikingly Chinese in sound, is a tribute to his teacher, and The Fire contains some of Tan Dun's most virtuosic and dramatic piano writing.
