"Alimujiang, where are you?" 》

One day in 1992, I was waiting for a bus at the bus stop on Northwest Road in Urumqi. I looked up and found an eye-catching missing person notice posted on the stop sign, with a line of bold characters: "Alimujiang, where are you?" Next to it was a photocopy of a beautiful and lovely Uyghur boy. The content was clearly written by the child's father, full of grief for losing his son and eagerness to find him. After a period of time, I saw this revelation on many stop signs across the city. I couldn't help but imagine the busy and tired figure of this father. How anxious he was. His nights must have been long and sad. I think this is something that must be written about. Soon, I wrote a song called "Alimujiang, where are you?" 》narrative poem, and another thought that came to my mind made me even more excited. I thought that if this poem was set to music and then sung in the streets and alleys, then everyone would know that Alimujiang was lost. things.

"Red Snow Lotus"

"Red Snow Lotus" benefited from a traditional Scottish folk song that has been circulated in Europe and the United States for dozens of versions. Hong Qi adapted it from one of them called "Holland" "Lowlands" version. The Australian folk singer Tianna Lawton who sang this song was born in the suburbs of Adelaide in 1944. She grew up in a family of musicians. She loved drawing in notebooks and was a musically gifted singer; unfortunately, in 1968 She was tragically killed in a plane crash when she was 24 years old. Tiana Lawton never released an album in her life, and only had a few singles that became popular and gradually made an impact. Hong Qi accidentally heard this song in 1992 and was fascinated by her voice and melody. He was grateful to this exotic singer for providing him with a broad and profound musical background for recreating the musical image of "Red Snow Lotus".

This song has been covered by dozens of singers in recent years.

"Song Over the City in 2001"

This song was written early. In 2001, I was sitting in a minibus in Urumqi and watching the migrant workers at a high construction site. Playing the flute, it was a very cold season, I forgot whether it was January or February in Urumqi, but it was minus 17 or 8 degrees Celsius. I looked at the migrant worker playing the flute and thought about my future. At that time, there was no future, and the whole mood was chaotic and confused. Of course, there is still no future, but my mind is much more settled.
