About the book: In 1949, the Chinese National Party lost the civil war to the Communist Party and subsequently retreated from China to Taiwan. Because of this mass exodus, Chinese culture was imposed onto the Taiwanese people. The government prevented composers from composing any songs in Taiwanese. However, Hsiao Tyzen resided in America and was able to continue to compose Taiwanese songs without restriction. His rich harmonic language reflects the influence of Western Neo-Romantic compositional style. His musical aesthetics are strongly associated with Taiwanese tradition. Therefore, many people have considered him a strong proponent of Taiwanisation Movement as even been referred to as "Taiwan's Rachmaninoff." Hsiao Tyzen is an important figure in the history of the music of Taiwan. Hsiao Tyzen's songs present beauty through the elegance of the Taiwanese language. As a Taiwanese person, it is incumbent upon me to promote songs in our mother tongue and appreciate our distinguished native musician, Hsiao Tyzen. Dimension: Standard Portrait, 97 pages Category: Music Tags: Taiwanese History; Taiwanese Art Songs
