Explorer Series: East Asia
China: Music Of The Pipa Digital MP3 Album
$6.00
The pipa, the four-stringed, fretted Chinese lute, was introduced to Asia from the Middle East in the sixth century. Here, virtuoso Lui Pui-yuen performs both traditional and, reflecting the recent revival of the instrument, more contemporary compositions and arrangements. The pieces range from the contemplative and lyrical to the heroic and martial.
