Music From Beijing 2008 Olympic Games (Score) (2008) - Chen Qigang, Tan Dun & VA

Ok, here is the re-upload of the MP3 version.
I have made some changes and organized the tags. Not sure if the tags are all correct, because it's hard to find any info of this set since it was not made to be sold in public. If you happen to find any incorrected tag, then let me know about it.

It's hard to imagine that four years have passed since the last games. Really, the time goes by in a blink of an eye, but it's nice to have this album just to remember the opening ceremony.
I especially like the music part sequence of 'A Moonlit Night on the Spring River'. Yes, i know that it is based on a folk song, but the way the music was orchestrated is so sublime, that it never fails to thrill me even after all these years. Merit to Qigang Chen for that work.

Sounds like a good idea!

How odd see that part 2 was deleted when part 1 and 3 are still working.

Well anyway here is another link for part 2: [Hidden link. Register to see links.]

Holy flippin flip!! The Beijing Olympic ceremony made me cry and cry and cry...so...much...tears...
And Tan Dun and Qigang are very wonderfull. Seriously Qigang's soundtrack for Under the hawthorne tree is within reach from where i am sitting by my computer, as are many soundtracks, but i mean, it's not just because he was the last to study under Messiaen...sorry this is just so great, i'm so excited.
Thank you so much!

The music for the Chinese Olympics, as well as the opening ceremony itself, was vastly superior to the British one. I was fortunate to be at both in person as well as to watch the televised versions. The latest one was a pretentious, vulgar, atonal mess of (bar some) awful hip pop songs and cryptic pop culture references. The chinese opening was profound and, like the Barcelona opening ceremony, incredibly ahead of its time. The music here by Tan Dun with Confucius texts and sublime music is divine.

Thank you for uploading
