The Chinese songs of Alexander Tcherepnin: an introduction

In 1934, Alexander Tcherepnin (19899-1977) arrived in China during one of his worldwide tours. He was so attracted to China that he canceled the remainder of his tour and remained there for several years (Waleson, n.d.).

This recording introduces Tcherepnin's compositions informd by his experience in China. These works comprise an opera and two song cycles.
