Zhang Shengqun's performance of "The Moon in the Barren City" comes from the album "Music: Shakuhachi - Zhang Shengqun".
It was composed in 1901 by Taki Lentaro, the father of modern music in the Meiji period of Japan, and has enjoyed a high reputation for more than 100 years. Among the many folk songs in Japan, in addition to the folk song "Sakura" created at the end of the Edo period, the most famous is "The Moon in the Deserted City".
"The Moon in the Desolate City" gives people a feeling of being soaked in the endless yellow sand in the desolate moonlight, parting like a thin horse on the ancient road, and pinning the coldness of life on the loneliness and loneliness that have remained unchanged for thousands of years.
