I've seen and heard many outstanding performances by chinese musicians. This is up there with the best. There's quite an oomph there, gutsy. Great stuff! Thanks for the upload.

驚人的音樂

我的問候和尊

[mitchlpeters]

Is this Local Hero theme by Dire Straits???

[Agosloensis]

I have never seen or heard this instrument. Zhang Qiang is a true master on this instrument. Amazing!!

[AdminSkaz]

Very beautifully!

[dkprz]

绝了，五体投地。 orz

[weiwuwei2]

The definitive of all, The total master.

[Alexlowe88]

Just like to add. The performer is the composer of this piece of music. Everyone should listen to his other performances. Master Liu, I think is one of the treasures of China, a gem of Chinese culture.

[Alexlowe88]

Sorry, make a mistake. The performer is not the composer. The composer is Dehai Liu. My apology, Master Liu.

[DaJazzBass]

Your trilling is probably the best I've ever heard on any instrument.

[sonofzeke]

[Bancaer]

This is my favourite of his pieces on YouTube

[xiuqin24]

Impossible ! Western musical instrument and technique of playing are totally 2 different styles of expressing music !

[meeklothefreezerking]

hell yeah, dude. Go get some individual finger picks like they use for all those Asian zithers, and kick the shit out of the lame rock music they're playing on the radio these days! Be influenced by whatever comes your way, more musical power to you.

[jimineycricket84]

5000years of mastery in 1 piece. this music is making love to my ears

[honghuanwu]

yes, china is wonderfull culture

[morocca1]

this guy is truly talented.

[djmachale]

HA! Twelve Girls Band are sooooo much better than him. Please search for them on youtube. You'll find great videos.

[hacona]

ha...so much better than him in terms of?

[xiamengbaby]

You know the recent interest is not in the music, but in the appearance of the performer. If the music is ok or even mediocre, as long as the girl is really hot and can gyrate, well, then it's "a really good performance".

[7ynx]

Dude you just made a point! A very good one!

[ppw8626]

@djmachale nah....................

[MyMiniMotto]

@djmachale It's amazing how bad your sense of judgement is. There aren't many players who have this level of tonal quality, and unless you think you can do better, keep your hate to yourself.

[HyperIla]

Beautiful ^^ I especially LOVE the first minute or so of the piece ^^ Now I want to learn how to play the pipa... ^_^ *thumbs up*

[doowlu]
