Zhao Mojia's guzheng performance "Autumn Mountain Song" comes from the album "Zheng Pin".

Composer of "Ode to Autumn Mountains": Kong Zhixuan one year on the Double Ninth Festival, I climbed high on foot. The quiet mountains and still waters were like a paradise in the world. The leisure of the journey slowed down my pace in my heart. I enjoyed the infinite pleasure brought by every flower, grass, tree and tree, and experienced all kinds of throbbing brought to my heart by "slowness" and "quietness" in life. This piece of music is created based on this, using a board structure layout of "slow and fast dispersion - ending", and using the unique performance of multi tone string guzheng to express various insights into life, making the colorful creatures and inner world complement each other. This work was commissioned by Zhao Mojia to Kong Zhixuan, a young composer, and was completed in the summer of 2017. Zhao Mojia premiered in the semi-finals of the 11th Golden Bell Prize of Music of China Guzheng Competition.
