Organic Music Series (1989 to Present)
"Organic music concerns both matters of everyday life and matters of the heart. These ideas find their origin in the animistic notion that material objects have spirits residing in them, an idea ever-present in the old village where I grew up in China.

In other words, every little thing in the totality of things, the entire universe, has a life and a soul.” --Tan Dun
