After experimenting on numerous musical projects and playing with a wide variety of groups, Steiner founded his own jazz-rock group. He now focuses primarily on composing.
In 1990 Steiner met Ulrich Gitschier, a producer and studio owner in South Germany, with whom he became friend and collaborator. From Gitschier he learned the backgrounds of Far Eastern religions, cultural roots and music. Steiner was fascinated with his newfound knowledge, especially Indian and Chinese music, and began to compose works with these ethnic influences.
The degree to which Steiner was able to absorb the wisdom of the 5,000-year-old text of the I Ching is evident in I Ching Symphony. Steiner worked with musicians playing both acoustic and electronic instruments giving the recording both a traditional and contemporary feeling and one in harmony with the contemplative nature of the ancient oracle.
Frank Steiner,Jr. （弗兰克.斯坦纳）德国New Age音乐制作人
Frank Steiner,Jr.于1966年出生于德国弗莱堡。在那儿他学习了古典钢琴，小号和音乐理论。经过无数实验性的音乐规划，并广泛地与各种乐队共同演出之后，Steiner创立了自己的爵士-摇滚乐队。现在他的精力主要集中在创作上。
在1990年Steiner遇到了Ulrich Gitschier，一位制作人及德国南部的录音棚持有者，跟他成了朋友和合作者。从Gitschier那里，他学习了远东宗教的背景知识、文化根源和音乐。Steiner对他新学的知识非常着迷，尤其是印度和中国的音乐，并在这些民族文化影响下开始了创作工作。
Steiner达到了能够从拥有5000年历史的易经经文中吸收智慧的程度，在《I Ching Symphony》中显而易见。Steiner既同演奏声学乐器，也同演奏电子乐器的音乐家合作，赋予唱片既传统，又现代的感觉，并具有与远古圣人的沉思状态同样的和谐感觉。
《I Ching Symphony》生动地再现了具有5000年历史的圣人的形象，在《I Ching》或《Book of Changes》中。这八首感性、时而动感的单曲与易经的八个构成元素相对应，其效果是：一次穿越自然的迷人而令人鼓舞的旅行，令听众精神振作，而且，以某种方式，变得更加明智。
The I Ching Symphony brings alive the imagery of the 5,000 year old oracle, the I Ching or Book of Changes. These eight sensitive and sometimes dynamic pieces, corresponding to the eight building blocks of the I Ching, have the effect of an enchanting and inspiring journey through nature leaving the listener refreshed and, somehow, wiser.
易经是中国最具智慧贡献的代表，其所阐述的宇宙哲理与自然万物生衰与灭的法则思想，直到今天依然深深影响现代人。近年来易经学说在欧洲大行其道，尤其受到了知识分子的推崇，无论在学术研究、绘画、舞蹈或音乐艺术，易经丰富奥妙的内涵与寓意，都是激发创作的绝佳题材。
本张专辑透过交响乐形式乐器编排，将易经中乾、坤、震、巽、离、坎、兌、艮八卦的涵意，藉由中國五音音阶的音乐风格呈现。音乐概念架构完整扎实，乐风浑雄稳健，其巧妙；用梆笛、古筝等中国传统乐器的演出堪称一绝。
