"Beauty" Zhao Xiaoxia Guqin song performance from the album "Green Qi Qin Song".
Guqin, spread in Chinese history for three thousand years without interruption, is still ringing in the study, the stage. In the long historical stage of ancient Chinese society, "Qin, chess, writing, painting" has always been regarded as the only way for literati to cultivate their character. Guqin, because of its clear, peaceful, light and elegant music character, embodied the literati's arrogance and otherworldly attitude in life. Guqin became a vivid portrayal of the life of literati and officials by playing xiao and playing the piano, reciting poems and painting, climbing mountains and traveling far away, and singing over wine.
