Tao Chu-Shen playing Zheng

Tao Chu-Shen - GuqinFor those of you who haven't heard of it, the Zheng (also known as the Guzheng) is a 7 string Zither from China.

The Zheng is one of the most ancient Chinese musical instruments and has been described in literature from at least 206 BC.

There are similar instruments in other Asian countries such as the Japanese Koto, the Korean Kayagum and the Mongolian Yatag.

This particular piece is called Ping Sha Luo Yan which translates as Geese Descending on the Sandy Isle and was written in the 17th century.
