	The music of Hometown portrays a small Taiwanese agricultural village in the 1950s. It starts slowly, like an elderly couple strolling down a dirt road around a courtyard. They pass a couple of teenage girls on a seesaw. The tempo picks up as some young children come out to play. First they jump rope, then they play with grasshoppers. Mom asks them to catch a chicken (yes, they roam freely in the yard) for dinner. After some serious chasing, dinner is secured and the courtyard returns to the peaceful scene that it was.

	Story Behind the Song I recorded this CD to share with you the enjoyment that classical guitar music has brought me. It includes four pieces by Taiwanese composers/arrangers whose work until now has been unknown to the Western world. My hope is that this CD and the introductions that follow will spark your interest so that their work won't be unknown forever.
