Details
[Edit]If you've never heard the sacred music of Buddhist China, prepared to be seduced by its simple charms. On compositions anchored by the understated rhythms of a variety of drums, cymbals, and gongs, hypnotic webs of melody are spun by the powerful guanzi (a double reed pipe), which rides atop the chords produced by the sheng (mouth organ) as the playful flute fills in the space with its darting bumblebee scale gymnastics. Highly spiritual and deeply moving, Buddhist Music of Tianjin may not be for everyone, but it is a welcome introduction to the ancient traditions of a rich musical culture.
