"Dim sum to us means that instead of presenting large multi-movement works for string quartet that often last a half hour, we offer a selection of shorter musical delicacies.... This enables the listener to sample a tempting variety of music by contemporary Chinese-American composers in the same way that the style of eating dim sum offers a table full of steaming, bite-sized morsels."--Notes, p. 3. |
