After a hiatus of several years, I'm back to recording guqin music. No video yet as I still haven't got a new better webcam than the old crappy one.

Standard Yangguan melody as played nowadays from the Qinxue Rumen 【琴學入門】. Made a few teeny weeny slips.

The melody is based on the poem by Wang Wei of the Tang Dynasty seeing off his friend who was exiled to Yang Pass: 'I persuade my friend to have one more cup of wine, for there will be no friends west of the Yang Pass.'

Played on a Zeng Chengwei qin called 泉音 made in 2006 with 龍人 nylon strings.
