【專輯介紹】:

Xuefei Yang, the groundbreaking Chinese-born, London-based guitarist, has recorded her second CD for EMI Classics, entitled 40 Degrees North. Describing the background to this album and the inspiration for its title, Xuefei, known to her English friends as Fei (pronounced Fey), says, "I was born in Beijing, just after the end of the Cultural Revolution a period where western music and instruments were banned. The music of my childhood was the rich heritage of folk music from all regions of China. It is a music I love, but is little known in the West. When I was nine years old, my life changed when I heard a recording that my father made from his radio John Williams playing Spanish music on the classical guitar. The magic of Spanish music touched the heart of a young girl in China, and inspired me to become a professional musician.

Fei's choice of music from Spain includes works by the great pianist-composers, Isaac Albaniz and Enrique Granados. She made her own arrangements from the original piano scores despite the fact that Sevilla (from the Suite espanola), Cerdoba (from Chants d'Espagne) and Valses porticos have long been part of the established guitar repertoire. Castilla, one of the Seguidillas from Chants d'Espagne, is better known as a guitar duo than as a work for solo guitar. Fei's Spanish selection concludes with Carnival of Venice by the father of the modern guitar, Francisco Terrega.

Xuefei Yang's exclusive recording contract with EMI Classics was launched in 2006 with the release of Romance de Amor, which was awarded a gold disc in Hong Kong, reaching No. 2 in the charts and remaining in the top 10 for several months. It was No. 2 in the iTunes Top Albums chart in the U.K. and has received outstanding reviews worldwide. The New York Times wrote, "Yang demonstrates her feisty virtuosity, impeccable technique and sensitive musicianship in repertory ranging from Alb?niz to arrangements of Western pop and Asian songs. Ms. Yang seems a Spaniard at heart, her guitar singing as if she had grown up in the shaded courtyards of Andalusia. In Francisco Tarrega's nostalgic "Recuerdos de la Alhambra" she makes the tricky tremolo passagework flow gracefully, colorfully evoking the languid fragrance of southern Spain. A spirited rendition of Isaac Alb?niz's "Asturias" is notable for the dazzling clarity of the opening (here played unusually fast) and the serene beauty of the evocative slow section. In her own arrangement of Gerardo Hernan Matos Rodriguez's "La Cumparsita" Ms. Yang shows that she has the tango gene as well. She seems equally at home in contemporary repertory... It is not hard to understand why Ms. Yang has drawn praise from John Williams and Joaquin Rodrigo."
