Yang Zhijian's Guqin Solo "Autumn Wind Ci" comes from "People - Yang Zhijian's Guqin Solo Works Collection"

"People" - Yang Zhijian's collection of guqin solo works, including:

Seven ancient zither solo pieces: Memories of the Old Man, Phoenix Seeks a Phoenix, Li Sao, Memories of the Flute on the Phoenix Platform, Questions and Answers between the Fisherman and the Woodcutter, Autumn Wind Ci, and Three Stacks at the Yangguan Pass.

Solo is the most traditional and important form of guqin performance. It is closer to the inner monologue, listening to the world and the inner voice. It is more aloof and scattered. The light joy and sadness are more in line with the implicit and restrained expression of traditional literati.

The three solo albums are entitled "Heaven", "Earth" and "People". From ancient times to the present, there are three ways for human beings to torture themselves: man and nature, man and man, man and himself.

People are sentimental. One piece of Chinese ancient zither has its own legend. There are Sima Xiangru's "Phoenix Seeks a Mate", Li Qingzhao's "Remembering Playing the flute on the Phoenix Platform", and Wang Wei of the Tang Dynasty's "Three Stacks at the Yangguan Pass", a farewell scene for literati.
