I the xun soloist does wish to lay in this assage, the rhythm section should lay much lighter and the drum set layer should switch to rushes The assage rom mm 122 17 and mm 18 19 can e reeated as needed with the ensemle ackgrounds rought in as desired 188 This contrauntal assage uilds gradually to the climax o the iece at m 2 Please ensure all o the individual lines can e heard clearly It has een a leasure to work on antasia on KANG DING LOVE SONG I hoe you enoy it!
