As a key member of CCOM's legendary Class'77 and the last disciple of the French composer Olivier Messiaen, the 70-years-old Chinese composer Chen Qigang excels at expressing classical Chinese sensibility with Western musical tradition. With delicate colors befitting a literati's sensitivity and sensibility, his music has exemplified the spiritual attainment of Chinese contemporary music and is one of a kind in the world of music. The BMF, with its long endeavor in cultural exchange, has been associated with Chen for nearly 20 years.
