The Grasslands ensemble(Qiqigema) & Daniel Ho - Gray Sparrow’s Heartache "Between the Sky & Prairie"

Gray Sparrow’s Heartache
Buryats folk song

Qiqigema: vocals
Arrangement by Daniel Ho
Daniel Ho: piano

While Qiqigema was rehearsing this song in the studio, she quietly sang it to herself. Her microphone was on and I was listening in the control room. Completely moved by her delicate voice, my eyes welled up with tears. It gave me the idea to treat each of the long song’s four verses differently, beginning softly and intimately, and building gradually to the powerful last verse, which is probably the most traditional in style. It features Qiqigema’s vocal control and expressiveness. Though it is a strophic melody, the delivery of the first verse is quite different from the last. To emphasize these layers even more, I played a different piano part for each of the four verses because I felt it needed to evolve with her vocal presentation.

Behold an aural paradise—Between the Sky & Prairie—a re-imagined collection of Mongolian music from a millennium.

Created by six-time GRAMMY Award-winner Daniel Ho, Golden Melody Award-winning producer Judy Wu, and introducing The Grasslands Ensemble.

throat-singer and perpetuator of tsuur music legacy, Tamir Hargana;
The Grasslands Ensemble comes from the Inner Mongolian prairies of Hulunbuir. They represent a diversity of ethnicities: Mongolian, Manchurian, Evenk, Daur, Russian, and Han Chinese. Their music is an organic and inimitably rich presentation of traditional, ethnic minority folk songs. Daniel Ho adds his signature sound on 'ukulele and instruments of his native Hawai'i. His thoughtful arrangements give prominence to each member of the Ensemble.

The Grasslands Ensemble is:
Mongolian long-song master, Borjigin Hasibatu;
lead female vocalist of the group Anda Union and preserver of traditional Evenk music, Qiqigema;
female Manchurian vocalist, Bayinhehe;
Chaoer and morin khuur virtuoso, Han Mou Ren;
