This instrument is called "guzheng" or gu zheng. This is one of my favorite guzheng song. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Thank you for viewing! I played this clip in my practice session. Sorry for the background noise.

Amazing that a sensory experience once only available to the wealthy class in China can now be shared and loved by almost everyone in the world. I worry sometimes that we treat music as cheap and disposable because it is so freely available, when it still takes passion and mastery to create.
thepeacefish I like your comment it stirs up curiousity in me and gratitude. I saw these instruments being played in movies like Kung fu hustle and red cliff which i found to be fascinating on how they where used in a deep reflective and emotional expression,which transports you into another time and culture.
Well said guys I agree
You: music takes passion and mastery to make
Mumble rapper: Hold my beer
Loved this comment, Namaste.
For sure... music is such a wonderous and often beautiful thing
My Chinese student played her Guzheng for me today, and it almost made me cry because it was played beautifully and heart-felt.
Aww
Who is ?
Mam I live India, plz guide me how can I learn to play Guzheng....I love it
@@Jesussaves8961 Gentlemen, a short view back to the past
Gentlemen, a short view back to the past. Thirty years ago, Niki Lauda told us ‘take a monkey, place him into the cockpit and he is able to drive the car.’ Thirty years later, Sebastian told us ‘I had to start my car like a computer, it’s very complicated.’ And Nico Rosberg said that during the race - I don’t remember what race - he pressed the wrong button on the wheel. Question for you both: is Formula One driving today too complicated with twenty and more buttons on the wheel, are you too much under effort, under pressure? What are your wishes for the future concerning the technical programme during the race? Less buttons, more? Or less and more communication with your engineers?
Oh my god.. really?
I really love Ancient Chinese Instrumental Musics.

@@brendancwc6188 you're wrong
@@brendancwc6188 the koto is an instrument that is derived from the Guzheng. The various chinese cultures had a massive impact on the entire south-east asian sphere so many instruments, foods, weapons and customs can be traced back to there.
Apart from the sound, you can usually tell by the number of strings. While 21 string Kotos exist, a regular Koto will usually only have 13 or 17 strings while modern Guzheng start at 21 strings upward.
Apart from that, speaking music alone, the melody is very chinese.
@@brendancwc6188 come on at least get ur facts straight before telling someone
Sounds German to me.
I love how dynamic this instrument sounds! Its like if a piano and a harp had a baby together. That's the best way I can describe the music this instrument produces.
Yes, its contains piano 🎹 string sounds rite
But it appeared 2000 years earlier than the piano
@@burkardt4531 They didn't say a piano & a harp literally had a baby lol. They just used the figure of speech to describe how the sound is like the sound of a piano & the sound of a harp
Psychedelic sounding
play this on piano its horrible, play this on harp its horrible, this can only be played this beautifully only on this instrument. thats why its unique.
Well that's the sound of civilization right there.
Indeed!
unfortunatly killed by CCP
That is the truest thing I have seen all day. People tend to forget that China has been through 4,000 years of history and culture. Nowadays people tend to connect to things communism and knockoffs. It's really sad. ):
killed?These things still thrives in china.
yeah when mao was in power people destroyed religions structures, artifacts, cultural architecture...
This has got to be my most favorite instrument of all time
Kaila J do you have any idea what this particular instrument is called?ngiyabonga
Sandisa Phungula It’s called a Guzheng
Yep
Kaila J me too
@BIGFOOOOOT ty
I’ve been listening to this video for almost 6 years now. It’s still amazing every time. People have enjoyed your performance for 11 years and will continue to for a long time.
it just popped in my recommended
@@ficosmedellin1492 great but you are late ...and yes you are lucky that you found it ....
I think you should try to learn this instrument， then you can play by yourself
@@beingiron Better late than never. Personally, I listened to this long ago … I am now revisiting it like an old friend to now find so many more to share its pleasure with. This is a good thing ☺️

春江花月夜
A SPRING EVENING, ACCOMPANIED BY THE RIVER, THE FLOWERS, THE MOON
Originally by 【Tang Dynasty】 Zhāng Ruòxū
Translation by MIRANDAJHJ2022
The spring river rises and falls, blending in with the ocean
A bright moon peaks out, surging with the waves
Waves shimmer under the moonlight, stretching into the distance
The moon and the spring river accompany each other
The river wraps around the vegetation filled plains, flowing
Flowering bushes refract the gentle moonlight, covering every surface
The real fog is hidden by the fog of light, blending into one
The white, fine sand on the beach melts into the moonlight, seamless
The sky and the water become one shade, not a grain of disturbance
It is lonely, yet the moon hangs in the sky, brightly shining
Who was the first to see the moon by the river?
When did the moon above the river first shine upon us?
Generations of people come and go, never-ending. Yet
The moon shines brightly each year, like it always has
We do not know who the moon is waiting for
We can see the flowing river, sending water far away
Like parting clouds, young travellers disappear over the horizon
They leave behind only the sorrow of women waiting for their return
Which traveller is leaving by boat today, floating into the distance?
In which room is she, the one who is thinking about him?
I pity the shifting and ever-present moon, like the sorrow of those waiting
Shine upon their desks, the moon should, take away their sorrow
The sorrow, it refuses to leave their curtains
The sorrow, it refuses to leave their clothing boards
We are both watching the moon, but I cannot hear your voice
I wish to follow the moon so I can shine on you as well
The wild geese fly non-stop, but they will never leave the moonlight
The fish and the dragons jump out of the water every now and then, leaving ripples
Last night, flower petals kissed the surface of pond water in my dreams
How unfortunate that spring is already half gone, yet I cannot return home
The river flows on, with it goes the remainder of spring
Above the river, the moon is descending westward again
The tilted moon slowly descends, hiding behind the mist
There is a long distance to go, seemingly endless
We don’t know how many people can return before the moonlight runs out
Only the moon rocks with longing, lighting the forests by the river
Original Text
春江潮水連海平，海上明月共潮生。
灩灩隨波千萬裏，何處春江無月明!
江流宛轉繞芳甸，月照花林皆似霰;
空裏流霜不覺飛，汀上白沙看不見。
江天一色無纖塵，皎皎空中孤月輪。
江畔何人初見月？江月何年初照人？
人生代代無窮已，江月年年望相似。
不知江月待何人，但見長江送流水。
白雲一片去悠悠，青楓浦上不勝愁。
誰家今夜扁舟子？何處相思明月樓？
可憐樓上月徘徊，應照離人妝鏡臺。
玉戶簾中卷不去，搗衣砧上拂還來。
此時相望不相聞，願逐月華流照君。
鴻雁長飛光不度，魚龍潛躍水成文。
昨夜閒潭夢落花，可憐春半不還家。
江水流春去欲盡，江潭落月復西斜。
斜月沉沉藏海霧，碣石瀟湘無限路。
不知乘月幾人歸，落月搖情滿江樹。

thank you.
Beautiful!
Thank you. I appreciate this music much more, this arrangement follows the poem wonderfully
Thank you !!
快住手！（声嘶力竭）
I am very enchanted with this Chinese music instrument . I first saw this instrument in New York subway played by a Chinese girl and stopped for a while to listen and enjoyed much.
Md Rahaman I WAS THERE TOO
Oh my was this a match made in heaven?
Md Rahaman I used to play this when I’m six but then I gave up and used it as a clothes hanger after a month really regret it.
红红火火恍恍惚惚 我现在有想弹了，单不知道在哪了。
Isn't this Koto? Japanese, not Chinese, though there is a Chinese instrument similar to this.
A Moonlit Night On The Spring River by Zhang Ruoxu
春江花月夜 张若虚
In spring the river rises as high as the sea,
春江潮水连海平，
And with the river's rise the moon uprises bright.
海上明月共潮生。
She follows the rolling waves for ten thousand li,
滟滟随波千万里，
And where the river flows, there overflows her light.
何处春江无月明。
The river winds around the fragrant islet where
江流宛转绕芳甸，
The blooming flowers in her light all look like snow.
月照花林皆似霰。
You cannot tell her beams from hoar frost in the air,
空里流霜不觉飞，
Nor from white sand upon Farewell Beach below.
汀上白沙看不见。
No dust has stained the water blending with the skies;
江天一色无纤尘，
A lonely wheel like moon shines brilliant far and wide.
皎皎空中孤月轮。
Who by the riverside first saw the moon arise?
江畔何人初见月？
When did the moon first see a man by riverside?
江月何年初照人？
Ah, generations have come and pasted away;
人生代代无穷已，
From year to year the moons look alike, old and new.
江月年年只相似。
We do not know tonight for whom she sheds her ray,
不知江月待何人，
But hear the river say to its water adieu.
但见长江送流水。
Away, away is sailing a single cloud white;
白云一片去悠悠，
On Farewell Beach pine away maples green.
青枫浦上不胜愁。
Where is the wanderer sailing his boat tonight?
谁家今夜扁舟子？
Who, pining away, on the moonlit rails would learn?
何处相思明月楼？
Alas! The moon is lingering over the tower;
可怜楼上月徘徊，
It should have seen the dressing table of the fair.
应照离人妆镜台。
She rolls the curtain up and light comes in her bower;
玉户帘中卷不去，
She washes but can't wash away the moonbeams there.
捣衣砧上拂还来。
She sees the moon, but her beloved is out of sight;
此时相望不相闻，
She'd follow it to shine on her beloved one's face.
愿逐月华流照君。
But message-bearing swans can't fly out of moonlight,
鸿雁长飞光不度，
Nor can letter-sending fish leap out of their place.
鱼龙潜跃水成文。
Last night he dreamed that falling flowers would not stay.
昨夜闲潭梦落花，
Alas! He can't go home, although half spring has gone.
可怜春半不还家。
The running water bearing spring will pass away;
江水流春去欲尽，
The moon declining over the pool will sink anon.
江潭落月复西斜。
The moon declining sinks into a heavy mist;
斜月沉沉藏海雾，
It's a long way between southern rivers and eastern seas.
碣石潇湘无限路。
How many can go home by moonlight who are missed?
不知乘月几人归？
The sinking moon sheds yearning o'er riverside trees.
落月摇情满江树。
Lえい Chen where's the flower meaning in the title name?
Lえい Chen q
Thank Chen for u Time in uploading the Translation of this very old traditional musical song in our CHINESE culture, passed through Generations.

I grew up with this music and i am in my seventies now and it still touches my heart.
i think the background noises makes the ambience so much more peaceful to hears someone’s keys jingling, people lightly talking, a beeping noise, a door opening and closing, people walking by, being silent, it’s so calming, peaceful and relaxing. i’ve listened to this and wished i could be in this room just listening to this person playing such a peaceful and calming instrument, you have so much talent and maybe one day if i found interest to try to learn this instrument id feel like this is one of those opportunity’s i might take at least to try because it seems like such an amazing opportunity, and such an easy one to miss!! much love :)💜💜
Chinese traditional culture is most Noble & Honorable, from what I understand by reading history & observing of their music & tradition & spiritual teachings. I like them very much.
they were also really advanced during middle ages time.
and also romantic, they are master of bittersweet stories
Александр Перчов Its sad that everybody thinks all Chinese people eat dogs or cats or insects.
I go to China quite often and I usually eat at least one of those during my stay.
It is sad that people who don't even know where their own food comes from are so interested in where other people's food comes from. Insects may be one of the key foods of he future.
K Ryu
The culture is different even in different parts of Britain.
I've had cat in China; civet cat at least, which is an animal with cat in its name. Tigers are occasionally in the news for appearing on the menu in China too, so it's a little misleading to say no Chinese eat cats.
Dogs are eaten far beyond Guangdong too. I've had dog dishes in both Nanning and Liuzhou cities in Guangxi province and have seen it available in Sichuan and Yunnan too.
Guangdong even had a bit of a human baby eating problem at one point just a few years ago, if we must make a list.
Many insects are excellent food. They're just a subset of arthropods, which also includes shrimps among other things. I've only had them pickled in high strength spirits though in China. These are quite commonly available, so insects *are* much more routinely consumed in China than you imply.
You're right about the variety of food. Guangxi province alone has more dishes than I could try in a life time. Even Nanning city alone probably does.
How ignorant I am. I occasionally heard music like this in restaurant and never paid attention neither did I realize what a polished execution I was probably listening to because I didn't know anything about these kind of instruments. I never thought it could be someone else's classical music.
+KremIsis I've never heard music of this quality in restaurants as far as I can remember.
andramoie I might as well have never listened to this kink of music before, but, since I'm completely ignorant in their tradition, I cannot swear on it. I guess people are people; most of them will put on the charts, but someone plays Petrucciani or Bach in the background. So, statistically, speaking, I don't know!
+KremIsis we are all ignorant, ignorance is never ending, there is no infinity of ignorance as there is no beginning of wisdom, nor ending of wisdom, as there is no infinity of sight nor ending blindness...alas! life.
Wonderful music, playing and instrument. Been searching all evening 'chinese ancient music' but found kitschy soft music of 'relaxation/learning/zen' type whose only valuables were the images. Was very dissapointed until this. Thank you so much. God bless you!
+Darius Simionescu Hi, if you are interested in the music from this Chinese musical instrument, you can just type 'Chinese Guzheng' or in Chinese 古筝 to look for more beautiful pieces. Hope it helps!
it has such a pretty sound.. it looks so complicated to learn tho (':
Is similar to a guitar
it's made under the 12356 pentatonic scale law, like most of Chinese traditional instruments. Every string is fixed in a certain pitch of note, you pull the string with your right hand to make it sound, and to the left of the saddles press the string with your left hand in case you need vibrato or a note out of the pentatonic scale, e.g., 4, 7, etc. So generally speaking it's easy to play in comparison with many other instruments.
watch Kono Oto Tomare!: Sounds of life
Kinda like a harp you bend the strings on
@@Schizniit not the same
I'm a guitar player. But that, is amazing! I love all stringed instruments! Most beautiful! Praise God for music!
the song is like the wind... when it get faster it feels like heavy wind is flowing but when its slow and mild it feels like a little bit a air flowing around me...
Ancient China sure had musical instruments - beautiful musical instruments.
The China today still have them :)
I have ever seen a antique Guzheng at Tianjin, the workmanship was superb and it looked beautiful.
th-cam.com/video/ujzMHLac404/w-d-xo.html
Many of the pieces they play today on these instruments date back to the Tang Dynasty, c. 900 AD. We even have notated scores for some pieces on manuscripts from that time. :)
jake hobbs My, such unrefined ears. Those whom enjoy this only know the peak of this instrument's peaceful and calming trance.
Guzheng sounds really calming and peaceful.
Love from India 🇮🇳
Sita also very calming and I think it represents one of the sound of history. thank you from China. namasta.

👏👏👏👍👍👍
謝謝你的按讚! 🙏
do not apologize for background noise. thats what makes the recording exceptional. anyone can listen to sound snuffed guzheng. it's not complete until cars drive by or whatever else is going on in the background. remember they have frequency and vibration as well. give them the justice they deserve.

....."yellow"?
@@miathapapaya you object to yellow but not black or white? What a hypocrite. I'm a mix of all three. Keep that same energy irl and make sure to use ethnically appropriate descriptions.
@@Minmin-jy1gq I'm also mixed. Racially, ethnically, linguistically, etc. but like...I don't feel as terribly offended as you do. Chill. It's okay. Black and white is more common than yellow or red. It sounds like you just wanted to tell someone you're black, white and asian
@@Minmin-jy1gqshut the hell up damn
When I was 14 I swam the length of the San Marcos river in Texas early in the morning. I happened upon largemouth bass, lots of turtles, and randomly deer drinking water. The first breath of the river the ripples of the current were moderate and at some places I passed tons of duckweed and floated at the top to keep from getting tangled. Then there were beavers slapping their tails to alert my presence. I saw egrets flying overhead. Below some snakes. The ripples of the water was music to my ears. I passed by fishermen in their boats as I swam against the current. I waved to one because he was my uncle. He knew I was supposed to be at school but kept quiet and softly said hi, (so as not to disturb the fish). Not too much further down the gators we’re sleeping under the second overpass. Then I came to the dark waters of the whirlpools. I stayed clear of the embankments so as not to be drawn in. More egrets looking at me. This is where you cannot see the water below and the chill of dead souls lingers as though something bad happened there long ago that only the river remembers. I walk out the shallow water under the third overpass. another uncle is netting crawdads for bait. He says, girl your supposed to be in school. I dig into my shirt and a couple of small fish are stuck in there and throw them into his bucket. I hope you catch something I say as I walk up the embankment past the waterfall and swim to the other side. Lovers are staring at the water as college boys swing off of a rope and summersault into the river. I pass the concrete bridge to the little island and dive in and catch a baby turtle the size of a small potato. The sun filters through the water. In the oxygen bubbles and the coolness of the water against the warmth of the sun I am happy.
Thank you sincerely for the beautiful music that helps me remember all those moments.
as a fellow texan, this melted my heart. thanks for sharing your remembrances of our beautiful home!
Why th would you swim in gator-infested waters?
When I hear this instrument and music I instantly get overwhelmed with Avatar the last airbender memories it brings me to tears

I'm a Chinese and I used to listen to many modern peaceful music, but never have I realised Guzheng music gives me the most peaceful atmosphere! Maybe it reminds me of my grandparents

I love how she plays with such grace when she pulls her hand slowly from plucking the strings with her right hand and setting her bend the strings with the other hand.

古典文化真的是非常美，琴棋书画无一不修身养性。唐诗宋词，无一不陶冶情操。今天的中国能提升民族认同感，提升国人自尊性，我觉得正是几千年前祖宗们留下给我们的这些宝贵的文化财富。真的非常希望我们的政府能够更加重视古典文化，古典乐曲。我们要向前发展，我们也要修身养性。
yu chen 我是海外华裔，对中华文化的认同不曾动摇。只能说中华文化博大精深，琴棋书画，样样都是古人的智慧结晶，中华文明的瑰宝。
说得好
惭愧，琴棋书画四艺就只会围棋，目前正准备学习毛笔字

I've always wanted to have a Guzheng for collection and also because of how calming and elegant the music that can be produced by it...

The spring tide is accompanied by the sea level, and the tide is on the sea.
With the wave thousands of miles, where no spring moon!
The river flow turns around Fangdian, and the moonlight forests all look like a ripple;
The dripping cream wasn't felt flying, and Ting's white sand was invisible.
Jiang Tian's color is not dusty.
Who sees the moon on the river? Jiang Yuehe shines at people at the beginning of the year?
Life has been infinite for generations, and Jiang Yue looks similar in the years to come.
I do not know who Jiangyue will be, but see the Yangtze River to send water.
The white clouds will go long and the green maple will be overwhelming.
Whose boat is tonight? Where is Acacia Moon Tower?
Poor upstairs on the moon, should leave the makeup mirror.
The Yuhu curtain won't go through and the anvil on the anvil will come back.
At this time, they did not hear each other and would like to visit each other on a monthly basis.
The geese fly in long distances, and the dragon dive leaps into the water.
Last night, the dream of idling in the lake fell, and the poor spring half did not return home.
The river flows to the end of spring, and Jiangtan falls to the west.
Oblique moon heavy sea fog, Yanshi Xiangxiang Infinity Road.
I do not know how many months to return home, falling moon rock full of trees.
Oblique moon heavy sea fog, Yanshi Xiangxiang Infinity Road.
I do not know how many months to return home, falling moon rock full of trees.
趙信甫 多深
Que droga é Essa?
A beautiful instrument played by a master of this instrument. What beauty. Breathtaking and mesmerizing. Oh china what advanced beauty.
This is next level beautiful
I always come back to this every few months
almost ten years ago,how time flies!
As time passing us, I am not sure anymore if we are wittnessing the sound or the sound observing us through.
I was high when I was listening to this ,... and I can see the universe is dancing to the rhythm of this incredible music ...
Lol im high right now and watching this beautiful piece of art
Not only is the music itself extremely beautiful. I'm enchanted by the beautiful movements of her feminine hands as she gracefully moves her fingers with elegance. This is pure art in the highest form.
Post-Modern Czechoslovakian War Factory yes it is such a graceful movement
We got yoshikage the simp here
Indeed it is is a spiritual dynamic of playing
To think that this music is 1,300 years old... wow. Art and beauty are eternal. Real gold never loses its shine.
this piece is around 200 years at most. actually most Chinese "classical" music we hear today are fairly modern.
春江花月夜。
唐詩：張若虚作，生平公元660至720年。
曲：琵琶曲公元1736至1820年，最初可能記錄不好所以年份不清晰。
貝多芬生平：公元1770至1827年。
莫扎特生平：公元1756至1791年。
classic 不classic 各自理解吧。
我覺得這曲子經典，有歷史。
@@lllsofia6210 I was specifically replying to the comment that this piece was 1300 years old. perhaps I should use "ancient" instead of classical in my reply
@@ferexx 對的，曲子确實不够老，年份挺尷尬的，也是介乎中世紀和現代史的分界線上。但真的感覺很古典。
You should imagine when you are listening Chinese ancient music. Just imagine the moon ,the flowers under the moonlight, the sound of the river flow, and then you will understand the meaning of this song.
Music therapy at its finest, OH all those rich musical notes
the name itself is full of poetic rhythms, too bad no other language in this world can convey so much like the chinese characters
Please explain
Arabic can convey much more. For example, there are 12 million words in arabic compared to english with only 600 thousand. And another point, the world “love” has 23 different words in arabic.
@@mabjazplayz272 well you can also have fewer words if you describe the things better and get the same result with the only difference is the amount of words you used
There is no language that can express more than others, all languages are equally expressive. Some have a long literary tradition and a classical language like Chinese, Arabic or Greek, others have only been attested for 200 years or so (like Lithuanian) but that doesn't make them less expressive. It also doesn't depend on the number of words.
The 12 million number is ridiculous anyway, this myth is based on an article by a guy who tried to calculate all the possible roots in Arabic, i.e. it includes a large amount of roots that don't exist. If you look at the number of words in Arabic dictionaries, you'd get a more reasonable number of 200.000 words. But counting the words of a language is not as straightforward as it seems: do you count earlier forms of the language (Old and Middle English for example) or just the modern form? Do you count rare words that are only attested once or twice? Do you include all the different dialects? Basically, it's impossible to come to an objective answer. And in the end, it doesn't even matter because no one uses or knows all of those words anyway. Even Shakespeare, who made use of an unusually large vocabulary in his works only used 30.000 words. And they were more than enough to express the depths of human psychology.
Mabjaz Playz no matter how many words you have in the end it’s still phonetic alphabets compare to Chinese characters which conveys imagery
Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful beautiful ❤️❤️ music with us...I feel like I'm in heaven...❤❤❤
I’m here bc it was a school assignment to pick a random country and listen to their music and I didn’t expect this. This is amazing!
Beautiful! Hearing this made my 8 year old son want to learn to play the guzheng. Which makes me happy, everyone in my family, including myself plays an instrument of some type. ^_^
why guzheng but not koto? Since koto is more of your country's own variation _(:з」∠)_

You need some Suga For your salty ass I absolutely love your name!! Sorry I just had to say that. 。(⌒∇⌒)
do you eat any of these foods:
sushi
pizza
french fries
chips
omlettes
instant soups
why not eat your own country's native food?
you know what great countries have in common?
it's not your kind of thinking...
The most beautiful stringed instrument I've ever heard, and the right person in the hands of it, I am musical myself, but not as good as you are. I could go to sleep to this melody, you are so good at it and I think it's really cool how you can also change the tone of each note on each string.
WildGrizz Salute for the great Chinese culture...
Indeed, this song shows the joy of resurrection in the spring season....
I consider that a pure heart from which rises a hymn of glorification of Life rejoices and touches The Almighty God...
I randomly saw this instrument and now i’m reslly obsessed with it, it’s so beautiful and it’s really calming
Thank you for sharing such a wonderful piece of music! As a musician, I have grown to appreciate many types of music from different countries, and this is the perfect example of a deep and rich cultural tradition as well as mastery in the playing as well. I feel enriched having heard and seen this performance.
Daniel Levin é muito linda desperta em nós amor e nós dá conforto espiritual !
i always thought this kind of music was multiple instruments. im so glad i found this video!
and what incredible talent! thank you very much for playing for us
ive been doing a lot of searching for good music to add to my playlist, and it seems to me my tastes have drifted from just guitar bass drums and singer, to like, really beautiful instrumental work. the best part is, its all instrumental, theres no words. sometimes all that needs to be said can be said with music, yet music itself doesnt even need words to paint an entire world to live in.

I feel like it is telling like: « okay,you were right, but please listen to me »
I love it
Lovely..Blisssful..Beautiful music..amazing culture ..Respect from India..!!
Kedar Kulkarni Thanks for appreciating our culture .. India culture indeed also has awesome musical instruments , just like us ;)
Kedar Kulkarni muss.m
Great music, suitable for paper times :)
I like Chinese's traditional culture.
Thank you, playing Guzheng could be fun you know. Playing Koto and Gayanggeum are also pretty fun.
TC94 가야금 kayageum or gayageum (the first is better)
Brought back to many harsh memories. Rest In Peace to the “Hidden Three”
I love to hear this even over and over,thanks i can hear it on youtube whenever i want,i don't get tired with this
There was this one time when I was driving my truck down an alley in Chinatown in San Francisco in the 80's and I asked this lady for directions, she was playing a similar song in her apartment. Next thing I know, a funeral procession comes out and all hell breaks loose. Where has the time gone?
Everything about this river is beautiful. It pulls in every sound and makes harmony of it. I just can't get over how even the beep of the timer, the keys being set down, a gentle thud of wood in the background (a chair?), all the human sounds gather around this stream, to become an ensemble.
And even I get to be one of the millions to listen in? Thank you forever. May this spring river never end.
吉他和古箏的版本都欣賞過後⋯⋯還是古箏版的感覺會汎起⋯許多的思緒！謝謝妳的演奏！謝謝！
It's amazing that one instrument can make such beautiful music.
is beautiful♥♥♥,中國的音樂很美好，我出生在墨西哥
Count Roy obviously she’s using translator, she is using the traditional Chinese which us not used in China
Last time I heard someone play this, our local baker, tailor and coolie died.
Ahhhh I'm dying the swords are going through the phone D:
oh my gosh! I literally can't. . .this comment made my day 😂
+irongiant775 The Lion's Fart saved the day.
+irongiant775 ahah, ++++)))
+irongiant775 you made my day
As I listened to this song, a whole story was played in my head! And I can say, that it was a sad, and beautiful story. The moral of the story was a generous emperor who caught a boy sneaking in to listen to the music. The emperor came to like the boy, but during some events, the emperor’s subordinate killed the boys mom. The subordinate was cast out, and the boy, filled with rage, was taken in by the emperor, and he was taught amazing swordsmanship from the best that they had. The boy trained harder and harder, until he back the beat there, and was able to beat anyone in sparring. After the emperor died, due to unknown causes, the boy, now man, went to find his mother’s killer. Eventually finding the killer, the two had a beautiful, amazing, empowering sword fight, that ended with the killer’s death. The boy, now man, returned, having killed his mother’s killer to pray to his mom and his friend the emperor. What happens after this I don’t know, that was the end of the song. It was an AMAZING STORY, if only you guys could have saw what I saw.
Wait how did this appear in your head?
what the fuck mate
@@kongweiying3892 imagination my friend.
I can feel my blood pressure lowering from listening to this
There is so much depth and richness to this music, far more than western music.
Guzheng music is pure and honest.
Thank you for your appreciation of Guzheng. I have played Guzheng since I was 9. I think western music also can touch people and have its depth in it, just by different ways. I love them all.
This song's english name is Spring River and Flowers in the Moon Light
it is name of poet of china
Much obliged
I play traditional germanic instruments (tagelharpas and kravik lyres) however the beauty of traditional chinese instruments is enough to move me to tears. I will never touch one of these instruments out of respect for the culture and the poetry it embodies. This music is deeply tied to time and place. However, I, like many others, can recognise beauty when I see and hear it. Be proud of your heritage and express yourselves fully. 🙌
This is my favourite instrument since I was a child. Seriously the most beautiful sound ever. I have played music, but nothing compares to the tranquil, romantic quality of this, and how it puts in mind the most dreamy things. It's like a harp and a mandolin together. Closest I can compare.
Listened to this wonderful song since 20,000 views and now it's 1,662,703!
I really apreciate Chinese culture. Food, Music and more
This made me tear up, I probably have the least amount of connection to this history of the humans who created this instrument, but I feel like my ancestors or past family speaks to my soul through this sound. Unbelievable. I WILL teach myself how to play these strings.
Maybe in your previous life you a an court official in some of Chinese dynasties.
Did you learn the instrument?!
A superb instrument like the Harp, played with grace & perfection. So beautiful enchanting , uplifting, . God bless the musician. Love from India. may we live to have warm relations forever.
Peace be with you friend!
That was absolutely beautiful, I love this instrument.
The timbre of Chinese instruments are by far my favorite in the music world. The guzheng, erhu, pipa, sheng... they have such beautiful, emotive timbres that I wish I could play all of them. Lol, maybe I will some day. Thanks for the amazing video
And "guqin"

You know i enjoy hearing you play
This is hands down, one of the most beautiful instruments I’ve ever heard
one of the TOP 10 classic in China.
I FINALLY FOUND THIS VIDEO AGAIN omg I thought I lost it forever
Caitlin Mack This is a masterpiece indeed ....
I've heard it on a Chinese musical even in my University in Morocco. It was mesmerizing to listen to this masterpiece.
It sounds so beautiful
