Traditional

Folk Music From China Vol. 16. Folk Songs Of The D Traditional

China's rich and diverse musical heritage has been recorded and documented in a stunning, original collection. With twenty albums in the pipeline, this is a highly specialised series with the appeal of perhaps being the closest thing to the 'complete works' of traditional Chinese music. This album features the grand songs of the Dong, love songs of the Gelao, and two-voice songs of the Yao peoples. All played on traditional instruments such as the wooden bowed lute and mouth organs (made of Paulownia). This is volume sixteen of a twenty album series, exploring China's rich and diverse musical heritage.
