This soundtrack was composed and performed by Marianne Nowottny, using a variety of Chinese string instruments, including the zhang (a 21-string zither), the "magic dragon" four-string banjo, various gongs, cymbals, flutes, bells and whistles. Layered throughout are Nowottny's signature keyboard fantasies, voice, electronics and sound effects, producing an audio journey to a mystical and distant land of many moons ago. Marianne Nowottny has long explored dense multi-tracked compositional elements in her avant-pop songs and instrumental tracks. The score of a children's film serves as a natural showcase for the numerous possibilities her work presents.
