these ladies really know how to put emotion into there playing:) I love listening to them they are a calming sort of playing with a little extra energy added to it.
xtiml, This music is for human being. It is for whomever appreciative to beautiful music. These musicians are highly-trained and innovatively put modern and traditional instruments together breaking the barrier of isolation of old and new, east and west. Music is just music. Nice music is for whomever who like it.
@donkim1 Thanks for your reply and information about Longa Shahnaz. It seems to me that friendly and free exchange of opinions is important in this information age. Now I've learned that it's also spelled as Şehnaz Longa and composed by Ottoman Turkish musician Santuri Ethem Efendi around 1855. As for "chinese brittany", I don't have enough knowledge of its background Brittish/French cultural/historic connotations to grasp your implications...
The band isn't totally gone. Most of the girls just left and went their separate ways. A few of them even formed a smaller group with Zhang Shuang. The new 12 Girls Band is now called V12, and features a whole bunch of new musicians including some of the original girls that decided to stay. I am as disappointed and saddened by this news as any of their fans.
@donkim1 Can respect your opinion. "contemporary spins from other cultures": it does originate from Turkish Longa Shahnaz-is it contemporary? No matter, it only shows the greatness of Turkish music - but nothing truly great is entirely done by one single individual/group. Newton sees farther as he stands on the shoulders of giants. 12Girls stand on shoulders of Turkish giants and demonstrate again that music can be universal. And sometimes artistic creativity needs financial cash cow to exist.
@malang06 Her hair is the best. I have many pretty Chinese students in France and am careful not to show them as they are shy, but you can hear their lovely voices in CHINA REPO and I OWN YOU NOW and some other vids. This vid gives me chills. I have a place in Brittany and adore Celtic music, and am a student of a student of a student of Segovia on guitar! xo
i think i know whats happened here... 12 women that have been together so long that their menstrual cycles have synced and now they're ridiculously good musicians
@donkim1 Sorry, Santuri Ethem Efendi lived from1855 to1926, so he couldn't have composed Longa Shahnaz around 1855 - even if he were Mozart's reincarnation :)
This is brilliant, though I think it is slightly spoiled by the backing track. Would be better if it was just those twelve instruments and no other sound.
@malang06 Nothing like a long-haired beautiful Asian woman, I know I'm married to one, she looks like Jian Nan Zhou who plays the gu zheng (21 string instrument in the back of the group...starting at 1:24.)
I was hooked the moment I heard this wonderful group - a credit to their homeland
That was totally awesome. They always look like they're having fun while playing, that's the best part. ^^
This is one of my favorite songs! These ladies are so awesome. I love all of the different sounds and instruments in this piece. :D

@donkim1 Maybe you should try their "Freedom". It is not only a combination of lots of best things but also highly original and creative.
@malang06 Her hair is the best.

@light487 Yes. In fact their original songs are very creative.
i think i know whats happened here... 12 women that have been together so long that their menstrual cycles have synced and now they're ridiculously good musicians

This is brilliant, though I think it is slightly spoiled by the backing track. Would be better if it was just those twelve instruments and no other sound.

@malang06 Nothing like a long-haired beautiful Asian woman, I know I'm married to one, she looks like Jian Nan Zhou who plays the gu zheng (21 string instrument in the back of the group...starting at 1:24.)
