Song of the Old Tipper

Ancient music

Singing and playing: Zhao Jiazhen

In those days, Ouyang Xiu was exiled to Chuzhou, Anhui Province, visited Langya mountains and waters, and wrote "A Tale of the Zuiwengting Ji", known as the "Drunkard"; More than ten years later, Shen Zun expressed his interest with the qin and composed the qin song "Drunken Weng Cao". Although Drunken Weng composed a song for it, it did not match the sound of the qin. More than thirty years later, both Drunken Weng and Shen Zun passed away. Cui Xian, a skilled pianist, hated the lack of lyrics in this piece and requested a scholar from Dongpo to supplement his lyrics. Later literati and scholars believed that the combination of ci and qu was highly appreciated, and the existing music scores were only found in the "Fengxuan Xuanpin" in the early Ming Dynasty.

The fingertips outline a subtle and distant realm, with a melodious and clear piano sound. Upon hearing it, one's sorrows dissipate freely. If one is personally placed in the Langya Valley, the scenery is magnificent, and the sound is like an earring, with cold ripples. The extremely rich charm of singing, deep and unrestrained, shaking people's souls, and the nostalgic charm slowly conveys, making people ponder deeply and deeply. Drunken Weng has become an immortal Weng, and the meaning of mountains and rivers remains in the world. He also learns from Drunken Weng, sleeping soundly in the valley, accompanied by the clear wind and bright moon, pure and natural.
