"Mark Fish has done a wonderful thing. He has given Ferdinand the Bull a whole new exciting, intimate and satisfying life by giving it music. We have a new work to stand with Tubby the Tuba and Peter and the Wolf'; a brand new composition to entertain and absorb the young listener with a story that has been a favorite over several generations. It is inventive, tuneful and respectful of the story and its' setting while enhancing the clarity and humor of the tale. Thank you Mark. This work is always a pleasure to perform."

The Silvered Lute

NPM's 2009 release, featuring soprano soloist, Mei Zhong with pianist, James Helton, performing recent compositions by Derek Healey, Hua Lin, Judith Cloud, Joaquin Turina Perez and Eleanor Trawick.

"'The Silvered Lute,' a set of exquisite songs which call for nuanced delicacy and subtlety..."

'Wind and Rain' ...Zhong here sounds as though she is in full expressive control of each measure. David Q. Wu's poem is a poignant exploration of longing and missed chances, and Hua Lin's music conveys that emotional richness with exceptional sensitivity.

"...the finest moments are nothing less than thrilling ...in the spectacular 'Poema en forma de canciones' by Joaquin Turina ...spectacular playing form pianist James Helton who handles these fiendishly difficult accompaniments as though he were playing with three hands rather than two." -- NATS journal, March/April 2010
