Flat Shadow by Zhan Qian Song
Based on the beautiful picture of the famous Song Dynasty painting "Stepping on flowers to Return to the smell of the horse's hooves", the author describes the cheerful scene of the beautiful horse's hooves, the flowers and butterflies flying, and the young women's outing in the form of guzheng ensemble.
The whole song integrates the traditional techniques of shaking, touching, kneading and playing into the modern musical performance, making people immersed in the spring and vibrant flower fields, feeling the vigor of youth, and the beauty and freshness of the beautiful south. The flowing and flowing adagio, the lively and light allegro, and the joyful broadplate reappear the touching artistic conception of the classical poem and painting "the stone is sitting on the shirt sleeve is cold, and the flower is walking back to the horse's hooves is fragrant".
