Is a folk music, sang by aboriginals here in taiwan. Ke Chia people , if i am not mistaken.

This Taiwanese Folk Song
i must admit, i cannot decifer the title..........
The hand-written score. I am guessing whether it is from China (PRC) or Taiwan (ROC).
Based on orthography, there are some words that is written in simplified character (pointing towards PRC) yet there are some that is written in traditional character (ROC).
The music idion seems to suggest Hainan island, the minority there. Those syncopated rhythm is very characteristic of Hainan island.
A bit of history. Ke-chia (the more familiar name to the western world is Hakka) is DEFINITELY not aborigin of taiwan. The 10(some said 11) tribe in taiwan belongs to the Polynesians people, just like the Malayu in malaysia penisula. They do not use ErHu as an instrument.
Sorry little mistake here , ofcourse they dont use erhu. AND my biggest mistake, this is not hakka music.It Is from Ah Mei tzu or Ah Mei tribe. So this is Traditional Ah Mei Music.
This score is just an arrangement of the folk music for erhu and piano. It is originally for singing.
On the other... If the other score has simplified characters , then it is definitely not from taiwan. And how interesting to know hainan characteristics. And i do love hainan chicken rice as well
.

soh choon wee, i just happen to know somebody who knows Ma sui long in person. I can probably get some of his works.
Probably also some unfinished works, or sketches ha! Hope to get them around these weeks or august. Are you just interested in the piano concerto?
I believe he has also written other concertos.

GREAT !!
I dont know much about him.... (if china composer's scores are difficult, Taiwan composers are even more difficult to come by)
I would be happy with the piano concerto. (i think he wrote also a PANG-Di concerto, PANC-Di is a form of bamboo flute) But i certainly like any other piano works of his.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH !!
