He combines Eastern and Western composition techniques to create unique fusion of music between two great musical traditions. TheTea opera is the door to the mystical world of Chado; the Way of Tea. A world in which the ultimate objective is; as Tan Dun himself states; "To hear colour and to see sound". Beautifully crafted by Franck Scheffer;Tea includes interviews of Tan Dun; librettist Xu Ying and director Pierre Audi; as well as performances with the NHK Symphony Orchestra and the Dutch Chamber Orchestra conducted by Tan Dun.
