CHIN JING (I WANT TO BE NEAR YOU) (Original Piano Music) from “CHINA LOVE”
Composed and Arranged by Robert Van Horne in 1993
Advanced Intermediate Piano Solo
6 pages
Duration approximately 4:30
CHIN JING (I WANT TO BE NEAR YOU) stands out as the sole composition in the "CHINA LOVE" album not originating from Singapore. Upon my return to California in 1989, I felt compelled to add one more piece to complete the collection of ten. My aim was to curate an album featuring ten piano compositions in the evocative style of Chinese music, aptly named “CHINA LOVE.”
The term CHIN JING, when spoken phonetically in Mandarin with the appropriate accents, translates to "I Want To Be Near You." This invented phrase seemed fitting as the title for this particular piece, drawing inspiration from the theme of romantic love prevalent in many traditional Chinese melodies.
CHIN JING (I WANT TO BE NEAR YOU) employs open fifths introducing the sostenuto pedal for an echoing effect, followed by a pentatonic melody that infuses the piece with its essence.
The sheet music is meticulously notated, providing clear instructions on dynamics, articulation, phrasing, pedal usage, chord symbols, suggested fingerings, and relevant musical terminology.
Suitable for advanced intermediate students, professional pianists, and piano instructors alike, this arrangement offers a rewarding musical experience.
Although this mp3 audio sample featuring additional background instruments remains incomplete, the full rendition of CHIN JING (I WANT TO BE NEAR YOU) can be enjoyed on Robert’s “CHINA LOVE” album.
