Guzheng, as one of the most representative Chinese instruments, first appeared around the Warring States period (475 - 221 BC), then became extremely popular during the Tang Dynasty (618 - 907 AD) and spread to all neighboring areas ever since.

After all the years of evolution, today's Guzheng has twenty-one strings and is still widely used in all kinds of Chinese music.

| Product: | ChineeErhu |
| Developer: | Kong Audio |
| Type: | Chinese String |
| Price: | $60 |
| OS&Formats: |   |
ChineeErhu is a two stringed Chinese bowed instrument, originally dating back to the Tang Dynasty (7th century A.D.) and still widely used today all over China in all kinds of music, from movie scores to opera. Erhu has a special synthetic flavour which is drastically different from the Western violin. Whilst violin sounds like a splendid soprano in a grand musical, Erhu tells her life story in a hoarse tone from the dark alley. This gives Erhu a unique sound character. Kong Audio recorded the sessions with distinguished Erhu musician, YuSheng Liu, to capture the nuance and brilliance of vario... [more]

Nanxiao (Southern Xiao) is a bamboo flute of the Xiao family. Unlike Dizi, Xiao has no membrane. Nanxiao is mostly popular in the Fujian area of southern China. Like the Japanese Shakuhachi, NanXiao is the offspring of ChiBa and DongXiao from the Tang Dynasty (618 - 907 AD). Contrary to the upbeat, happy-trigger sound of Dizi, NanXiao has a more solid yet soothing tone that blends into modern music easily. For composers who need something different yet not really digging ethnic music, NanXiao is a welcome addition to the sound palette. The sound character of Xiao is of something more saddened,...

Pipa (Chinese Lute) has its origin dated back to the Qin Dynasty (221-206BC). As Pipa evolved, it was heavily influenced by Persian culture during the Tang Dynasty (618 - 907 AD) when the two great civilizations crossed over with each other, and became one of the most popular instruments in China ever since then. As Pipa prospered in the most powerful Chinese dynasty, it left tremendous markings in the Chinese literature and culture. Pipa is most well-known for its rapid, successive playing style. A famous quote from a Chinese poem has it nailed: "[sounds like] the pearls, large and smal... [more]

By the time of the Ming Dynasty (14th - 17th century), Suona is documented as a prevalent instrument in China. Suona is rather unique.
