Modal formations and transformations in the first movement of Chou Wen-Chung's 'Metaphors.' (composer and his musical piece)
Chou society was sharply divided between the aristocratic warrior class and the peasant masses and domestic slaves.

Chou Wen-chung -- and I note the rare circumstance that he is universally addressed family name first, as the tradition of his cultural origins dictate -- Chou is one of those whose life has set before him an uncommon, even unreasonable, range of possible engagements.
Chou has grasped how this instance can speak to our current (and inescapable) dilemma, the dilemma of how similarly powerful and apparently incommensurable forces can be brought into balance.
Long before cultural fusion had become a recognized and widely applauded endeavor, Chou hazarded for himself the position that a composer could forge a music that carried within it compatible elements of both the traditions of China and of the West.

KEYWORDS: Asian, East, West, Chou, I-Ching, re-merger TOC: Ch 1, Introduction; Ch 2, Chou Wen Chung's Modal System; Ch 3, "Beijing in the Mist"; Ch 4, "Echoes from the Gorge"; Ch 5, "Windswept Peaks"; Ch 6, Cello Concerto; Ch 7, East versus West; Ch 8, I-Ching and Meaning in Music; Ch 9, Conclusion.
Most existing literature on Chou deals only with his works up to the 1970s, when he went into a creative hiatus which ended in 1985.
I will attempt to show that these four works form a microcosm that envelops Chou's earlier outputs--"Beijing" is a throwback to his earlier pentatonic period while the other three pieces follow the line of design that makes use of the principles in the I-Ching to create a musical methodology/structure.

 American Mavericks:West Meets East
Born in Chefoo, China, in 1923, Chou came to Yale to study architecture, but switched to New England Conservatory to study music.
His works were influenced by his teacher Varèse and by the general turn toward pointillistic music, but were often based on Chinese subjects, with a sensitivity to timbre and pitch-bending.
Tan Dun describes himself as a composer "swinging and swimming freely among different cultures," and his music is a deliberate mixture of styles.

 Music at Emory University Recent Works
The volume includes analytical and ethnogaphic essays on works by Tan Dun, Chen Yi, John Zorn, Toshirô Mayuzumi, John Cage, Toru Takemitsu, Chou Wen-chung, Henry Cowell, Isang Yun, and others.
Yayoi Uno Everett, PhD, Music Theory, Eastman School of Music/University of Rochester, 1994, is a native of Yokohama, Japan, and is Assistant Professor in Music at Emory University in Atlanta, GA. She has taught previously at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and the University of Colorado at Boulder.
The editors argue that as the repertory of art music has moved beyond the Orientalist and exotic paradigms of cultural appropriation, it invites a careful negotiation between collective discourses and individual subjectivities in building avenues for interpretation.

Der Kern dieser zuletzt angeführten Kritik an Tsang Wen-chung findet sich schon Tso Wen 2.
Angesichts dessen und eingedenk des Umstandes, daß die Tsang immer wieder mit Stellungnahmen zu Ritualia zitiert werden, liegt die Vermutung nahe, daß Tsang Wen-chung für Lu eine Art von neuer Ritual- oder auch politischer Ordnung geschaffen habe.
Im Tso-chuan wird die nachhaltigste Kritik des Konfuzius an Tsang Wen-chung (Wen 2) anläßlich des Vollzugs eines großen Opfers zitiert.
