Chinese Classical Instrumental Music

• Track Listing

The Chinese Cultural Theater Group re-creates as closely as possible the highly crafted court and religious music that reached it's peak during the T'ang Dynasty (seventh to tenth centuries A.D.). Musicians use traditional instruments, including the pi-p'a (a plucked string instrument similar to a mandolin), the hsiao (a flute-like instrument with a nasal quality) and the erh-hu (a two-stringed fiddle).
