I took it upon myself to translate the biographies of some composers and one pianist; this was primarily work that had to be done to prepare program notes for some of the concerts I had put together with contemporary Chinese piano and chamber music. The biographies were translated from their original Chinese language ones published in the Modern and Contemporary Chinese Musicians' Biographies (zhongguo jinxiandai yinyuejia zhuan) edited by Wei Tingge, Spring Wind Cultural Publisher: Shenyang, 1994.
