Zhang Shengqun's performance of "Three Alleys of Plum Blossoms" comes from the album "Music: Shakuhachi - Zhang Shengqun".

Most of the "Three Lanes of Plum Blossoms" we hear now are guqin performances or qin and xiao ensembles. But "Three Lanes of Plum Blossoms" was actually a shakuba song at first. "Three Lanes of Plum Blossoms", also known as "Introduction to Plum Blossoms", "Plum Blossoms Song" and "Introduction to Yu Fei", according to the "Taiyin Supplement" and "Jiao'an Qin Score", it is said that it was originally a song written by Huan Yi of the Jin Dynasty. The flute music was later adapted into the guqin music. During the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the shakuhachi was called the flute, and it was not changed to the shakuhachi until the Tang Dynasty.

Huan Yi was a famous general in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. He participated in the Battle of Feishui River. Known as the Holy Flute, he is famous all over the world. Once, Wang Huizhi was called to the capital, and his boat was moored on the side of Qingxi. Huan Yi and Wang Huizhi did not know each other. Huan Yi passed by on the shore, and the guests in the boat called Huan Yi by his name and said, "This man is King Huanye." Wang Huizhi called people ashore and said to Huan Yi, "I heard that your feet are good at playing the flute, please try to play a piece for me. "Huan Yi was already a dignitary at that time, and he had heard of Wang Huizhi's reputation, so he got out of the car silently, sat on the top seat, and played three tunes for Wang Huizhi. And what Huan Yi played at that time was "Three Lanes of Plum Blossoms".

The name of "Three Lanes of Plum Blossoms" mainly comes from the tune describing plum blossoms repeated three times in different passages, so it is called "Three Lanes of Plum Blossoms". Express people's praise for the noble character of plum blossoms.
