    Oh my god, how can so much power come from such a little lady? she packs more punch than most heavy amplified bands, but with ethereal grace!

    the ornamented note from 8:07 to 8:12 might be the most deeply penetrating tone i have ever heard in my life... unbelievable.

    I love this woman, love the way her body flows as she plays, and how that flow is her metronome and determies when she plays and when she doesn't. but this piece gives me a hcill down my spine like no other.

    To be honest, I really think this is a beautiful piece. She did an excellent job. I can sense the mood of this piece full fledged. Nothing more beautiful or unique than the sound of the Guzheng.

    You are correct in what you say, but so are they. This is beautiful, beyond words. So many things I can picture while listening to this. In fact, it's inspiring me to not just get back in to the train of thought to beging writing upon my poem-story I've been working on, but it's also helping inspire me to create so much more than I had ever hoped for in it. As for describing it, and what I see, it's so difficult, I'm damn near speechless, much like they are.

    i play guzheng (obviously not as well as this lady) and it disgusts me that ppl are putting up these rude comments. you dont understand the amount of emotion and musical understanding that needs to be put into a piece of music. this music is different than american peices cuz american pieces require not much emotion to play it well, guzhen is different.

    hi there, in ancient times,no nails were used. Similarly, the left hand was not used to pluck at the strings. The flesh of one's right hand was primarily the effector of the instrument.

    I always had high respects for the Zither (Guzheng) and the performers of this magnificient and 2000 year instrument. It looks simple in form and size, but the subtlities and depth of the sounds transcends realms of contemporary music.

  • @samuelwongpipa
    @samuelwongpipa  17 лет назад

    Guzheng players play with plectrums on their both hands. In the past, players only had plectrums attatched to their right hands, but with an increse in technique, plecturms have been added to the left. You're observation of fingerings on the left hand is applied to plucked stringed instruments that are usually held upright, i.e. pipa. These instruments use plectrums on their right hand and establish fingerings on their left. The guzheng, traditionally uses its left hand to bend pitches instead.

    That was like the Moonlight Sonata of Mozart, that was like the Toccata Fugue of Bach, that was like the 5th symphony of Beethoven. Masterful, absolutely genius, spirit and soul. To me, that composition is right up there with history's greatest musicians, but even more special, it's a Guzheng.

  • @samuelwongpipa
    @samuelwongpipa  17 лет назад

    yes, you are right, the quailty of wood determines the instrument's price. however, with the expansion of repretory, nails are now commonly worn on the left and right hands. the last fingers (the pinkie), are now also utilised to pluck on the instrument - a technique never used traditionally before.

    Absolutely flabbergasting! Technical mastery! Also, the piece is much, much better than most of the traditional guzheng you can find on RUclips. It even has a jazzy, film noir feel to it sometimes. Does anyone know if this is a modern composer or something?

    古筝 Guzheng ... like in the title. Interesting, although I do know 1 symbol in Mandarine, that the first symbol of Guzheng resembles a bit a snare like instrument. The square is the sound chamber, the vertical stripe is the neck, and the horizontal stripe is the stick to tune the snare. Could be coincidence though.

  • @darkprincess1012
    @darkprincess1012 14 лет назад

    Here's the thing though that most of you who are replying to me don't seem to look at: american classical music requires much emotion and understanding to write, much emotion and feeling to understand, but not much to play it. If you've studied theory, you know that for sheet music, you just read what's on there and play it. You dont need emotion for it. You need emotion to convey the piece accurately but not to play it. With chinese sheet music, its diff. because its not written in.

    Ming Shan" is a mountian's name , or you can call it "Ming mountain" . 冥 is something like--as you said--deathly and ghostly , so you get the point with this piece . It's not easy to play and understand , but you'd got it though :P nice !

    technically and in today's context, yes. although in the past, players didnt have to. But changes in playing technique and style over the years have made the nails essential today.
