He was particularly interested in the old story about a fish jumping through the"Dragon Gate".This story came to life for Hofman when he visited Wuzhen and saw how people lived there. 霍夫曼创作《浮鱼》的灵感来源于代代相传的中国民间故事。他特别感兴趣的是关于鱼跳过“龙门”的古老故事。当霍夫曼访问乌镇并看到那里的人们如何生活时，这个故事对他来说变得栩栩如生。 "During the walk and my stay here in the town,I saw the fish being fed by people.You see also some fish sculpted on the wall."These sights set Hofman's idea for Floating Fish in motion. 在我散步和逗留在这个小镇期间，我看到人们在喂鱼。你也会看到一些鱼被雕刻在墙上。这些景象激发了霍夫曼创作《浮动的鱼》的灵感。 Tan Dun,composer 谭盾，作曲家 "There is no territory in the world of music."These are the words of Chinese composer Tan Dun.He is most widely known for composing music for the film Crouching Tiger,Hidden Dragon and the 2008 Beijing Olympics. “在音乐的世界里，没有领土。” 这是中国作曲家谭盾的话。他最广为人知的是为电影《卧虎藏龙》和2008年北京奥运会作曲。 To listen to Tan's music is to experience a mix of Chinese musical traditions and Western influences.Since his first opera,Nine Songs,Tan Dun has been using a combination of Chinese music and sounds from all over the world to tell stories.As Tan once said,Chinese music should carry"universal expression"of the human spirit so as to be recognised by the whole world. 聆听谭盾的音乐，就是体验中西方音乐传统的混合。自从他的第一部歌剧《九歌》以来，谭盾一直在使用中国音乐与来自世界各地的声音相结合的方式讲述故事。正如谭盾曾经所说，中国音乐应该承载“人类精神的普遍表达”，以便被全世界所认可。 Yang Liping, dancer 杨丽萍，舞者 Yang Liping's passion is dancing.After winning a national competition in1986 with her Spirit of ... ...
