Wang Ning Mei

This song, performed here on tenor recorder, comes from one of the four most famous stories in China. The film, Hong Lou Meng, was based on this very sad love story which still brings most Chinese to tears. The leading actress of the film, Chen Xiao Xu, died at the age of 42 from breast cancer in ShenZhen in mid-May, 2007. Her end was as tragic as the film, and all of China hopes she now rests in the peace she so much deserves.




《枉凝眉》是中国四大名著之一《红楼梦》之曲之一，曾经轰动全国及海内外的故事的女主角演员陈晓旭，因患乳腺癌前几天在深圳去世，享年42岁。在此，我们默默悼念她，愿她­一路走好。

Thank you! It's a plastic Yamaha tenor recorder. The great acoustics in the hall of the school where I recorded it also helped a lot.

Lovely, emotive stuff here. Maybe this video more than anything else will remind you of your time in the Middle Country.

Thanks. Yes it will remind me of Xiamen,China, where I first heared and fell in love with that tune. How about some tunes from the Land of the Rising Sun from you?

Thank you for uploding the moving video,but I suggest that You had better correct the error.

I think I discovered what the problem is. (You probably already know this.) Although Chinese characters are written the same all over mainland China, Chinese people pronounce the words quite differently in different regions. If one pronounces a word incorrectly, one might also use an incorrect pinyin spelling. For example, a Chinese Mandarin teacher at my school pronounced it, and thus spelled it as: Wang Ying Mei! Only after checking it, did she realize that it's "Ning" and not "Ying".
