Symphony 'Humen 1839' was commissioned by the Guangzhou Symphony Orchestra to commemorate the 170th anniversary of the Destruction of Opium in Humen, Guangdong, China in 1839, which led to the First Opium War. It was first performed on September 13, 2009 at the Xinghai Concert Hall in Guangzhou, and conducted by Yu Long. The first three movements of the work reflect on the event through tense, rhythmic writing that evolves toward an explosive finale that pays homage to the resiliency of the Chinese people.
