“Man Jiang Hong” is adapted from a poem written for Song Dynasty general Yue Fei by Wang Shan in the Qing Dynasty, as well as lyrics used by musicologist Yang Yinliu for a song of the same title.

Based on the traditional Chinese pentatonic scale, the former poem uses the “yǔ” scale to create a tragic and valourous tune. In contrast, the latter lyrics use the “zhǐ” scale in creating a vehement and fervid melody.

The composer delicately reconciles both melodies from the poem and the lyrics, thus creating a comprehensive work narrating the accomplishments and struggles of the legendary Yue Fei in his lifetime.

This piece comprises four major sections: I. Respite In The Rain, II. Return My Empire, III. Turmoil And Hatred, IV. Everlasting Loyalty.

《满江红》取材自清人王善为岳飞词作曲及近代民乐理论家杨荫浏先生选曲配词的同名歌曲。前者为羽调式，曲调悲壮苍劲。后者为徵调式，旋律慷慨激越。曲作者将两者巧妙地揉合在一起，加以发展变化，以叙事的方式，概括地描绘了中国宋朝民族英雄岳飞一生的业绩和遭遇。全曲大体可分为四段：（一）潇潇雨歇；（二）还我河山；（三）风波遗恨；（四）精忠千古。
