    Bo Ya (伯牙, B.C.387-B.C.299[1]) was a Chinese musician. He was a qin player from the Spring and Autumn period or the Warring States period. He was known by his first name of "Boya", although his surname may have been Yu (俞), thus his complete name is sometimes given as Yu Boya (俞伯牙). The Lute Platform in Hanyang, Wuhan, China was where musician Yu Boya is said to have played. He is associated with the guqin pieces Gao Shan "高山" ("high mountains") and Liu Shui "流水" ("flowing water").
    According to Qin Shi, Liezi said:
    "Bo Ya was good at playing the qin. Zhong Ziqi was good at listening to the qin. When Bo Ya's will was towards high mountains in his playing, Zhong Ziqi would say, 'How towering like Mount Tai!' When Bo Ya's will was towards flowing water in his playing, Zhong Ziqi would say, 'How vast are the rivers and oceans!' Whatever Bo Ya thought of Ziqi would never fail to understand. Bo Ya said, 'Amazing! Your heart and mine are the same!' When Ziqi died, Bo Ya broke the strings [of his qin] and vowed never to play [the qin] again. Thus, there was the melody of High Mountains Flowing Water."
    Bo Ya's story exemplifies the Chinese ideal of friendship. The term Zhiyin (知音, literally "to know the tone") has come to describe a close and sympathetic friend.

      There is a story behind this song. A man played this song by a waterfall in the mountain. Only one man could understand the meaning of the song. So the two men became best friends and agreed to meet again here in a year. But a year later the man who could understand the song died, so the author of the song broke his zither and said that no one would understand me any more.

      Technically, this melody is based on that story, not that this actual melody was composed/created 2,000 years ago (also that story was about the guqin, not the guzheng anyway). The oldest melody based on that story exists in a score dated 1425 which was based on an earlier, possibly Tang Dynasty composition that has under gone through many edits up to that point. It is called 'Liu Shui' (Flowing Water) on the guqin and you can probably find a video of it on YT but probably a later version based on a 1876 score; the 1425 version is rarely played nowadays.

    "Mi padre tocaba el violín, mi madre el qin. Yo elegí el violín , aunque podría haber aprendido a tocar cualquiera de los dos. A veces me arrepiento, porque hay melodías en China que no puedo tocar en el violín, y que a mi madre le habría gustado que interpretara. Me contaba la historia de Yu Boya, que era un gran intérprete de qin. Tenía un gran amigo, un leñador llamado Zhong Ziqi, y solía tocar para él. Dicen que cuando Yu Boya tocaba una canción sobre el agua, su amigo sabía inmediatamente que estaba describiendo los rápidos ríos, y cuando tocaba algo relacionado con montañas, Ziqi veía sus altos picos. Y Yu Boya decía: «Es porque comprendes mi música». -Jem miró su propia mano, que reposaba levemente curvada sobre la rodilla-. La gente aún usa la expresión «zhi yin» para decir «amigo íntimo» o «almas gemelas», cuando en realidad significa «comprender la música». -Le cogió la mano a Tessa-. Cuando tocaba, has visto lo que yo he visto. Comprendes mi música..." De Princesa Mecánica, Cassandra Clare :')

    Over 2000 years ago, a Guqin master named Boya, faced lofty mountains and flowing river, and he was inspired by the scene, played an improvisational piece. Zhongziqi, a hermit in the high mountain, appreciated the characters behind the music, the high mountain and flowing water. Thereafter, the two became intimate friends. After Zhong�s death, Boya broke his Quqin and sword not to play music again. The music played by Boya was played at that time was called flowing water.
    High Mountain and Flowing Water� represents cherished friendship in Chinese culture.
    President Xi cherished the friendship with Macron. That's the purpose of playing this Guqin song to Macron.
