"Dance of the Mountain" was created by the pipa performer and composer Mr. Chen Yin in 2008. It is one of the outstanding works of contemporary pipa. Taking the folklore creation of the Miao and Buyi nationalities among the ethnic minorities in Guizhou as the theme, with its unique melody as the creative material, through the ingenious structure layout and fresh and beautiful sounds, the music of the ethnic minorities in Guizhou and the modern composition of the pipa are inspired. The perfect combination not only retains the strong ethnic and local characteristics, but also reflects the modern music atmosphere. This video is performed by the lute player Cai Ziyue.
