Dragon Soaring Melody

Ancient music

Qin: Liu Xiaocheng

Qin used: Qingliu Jiayu

Dragon Flying Cao "is a famous Chinese guqin piece and a representative piece of the Guangling School. It first appeared in the "Jiao'an Qinpu" compiled by Qin Weihan, a pianist from Guangling in the Qing Dynasty. The meaning of this song has always been controversial. Some people say that it depicts the state of a dragon soaring in the sky; Some people say that imitating Zhuang Zhou's dream of a butterfly. Zhang Ziqian, a famous Guqin master, once commented on the song "solemn and carefree, without me, there is me."

The sound of the qin is light and distant, free and ethereal, with threads winding up to nine days. The melody fluctuates and changes in form, faintly resembling a flying dragon soaring freely, leaping and swinging its tail through the clouds and entering the mist. Upon closer inspection, one can only see a vast sea of clouds, with flying dragons appearing to exist or not, leaving one momentarily unaware of where to find the divine dragon in the world. The origin of the dragon is ethereal and elusive, and the departure of the dragon is invisible. Don't have any thoughts, let go of your worries, and let the world roam freely.
