    http://moviescoremedia.com/lost-years-a … rren-fung/

    SCORE NOMINATED FOR THE CANADIAN SCREEN AWARD

    Directed by Kenda Gee and Tom Radford, Lost Years: A People’s Struggle for Justice is a political and historical documentary about Chinese immigrants in North America and Oceania, featuring an immensely beautiful orchestral score by Canadian composer Darren Fung, who employed the forces of the China National Symphony Orchestra for the recording of the music.

    The score mirrors the epic proportions of the narrative, spanning over 150 years, and is a mix of traditional western orchestral writing and Chinese folk music, featuring instruments such as the erhu and pipa. The score was nominated for a Canadian Screen Award for ‘Best Original Music for a Non-Fiction Program or Series’.

  1. I am listening to the clips for this at the moment and there's some really beautiful music here. A nice blend of Western and Eastern influences in the restrained music.

    Looking forward to hearing the tracks in their entirety - "Fractured Reconciliation" seems very poignant.

    Sounds like a great start to 2013 Mikael.

    I am listening to the score at the moment and, boy, is it beautiful.

    Tender, poignant, quite sad in places with a good helping of rousing passages to mix it up a bit. The track lengths may be on the short side - averaging about 2.5 minutes so not too short though - but it's a lovely piece of music.
