SIDE A: 1.寒鸦戏水 2. 春江花月夜 3.飞花点翠 4.月儿高 5.天山的春天 SIDE B: 1.寒鹊争梅 2.双声恨 3.塞上曲 4.高山流水 5.霸王卸甲 continuing to explore my chinese music tapes, this one catches my ear as probably the most mellow and quiet - probably because it's pipa solo, not an ensemble. even though it still has a lot of melodism and expression, music here also uses pauses/silence a lot, repeating phrases, which are little bit different each time, sudden bursts of melody and then very quiet parts again... something very fitting the name of the cassette. Wang Fandi looks like a very important figure in chinese music world and listening to this tape i can see why.
