Ma Xianghua's erhu performance "Scent of the Heart" comes from the album "Music: Erhu - Ma Xianghua".
Fragrance of the Heart is an erhu concerto composed by composer Zhao Jiping based on the soundtrack of his film of the same name. The word "heart incense" originally expressed sincerity and devotion, like burning incense to worship Buddha. The movie "Scent of the Heart" depicts the reluctance of the grandparents and grandchildren who were initially awkward and indifferent at the end, which is deeply touching. The concerto "Scent of the Heart" not only stops at the emotion of the movie story, but also emphasizes the hope that rises after many difficulties.
