Hu Jia Shi Ba Pai means eighteen songs of a nomad reed pipe, which was composed on the basis of the poem with the same name. Hu Jia was a kind of reed pipe popular among the nomadic people in ancient North China, and was used in the army to boost the morale since it's very loud.

Hu Jia Shi Ba Pai tells the famous story of Cai Wenji's return to the Han kingdom. Social unrest forced Cai to marry a king of the nomadic Huns in the North at the end of the Han Dynasty, and she missed her hometown in the Central Plain every single day. Finally she got a chance to go back 12 years later, but by then she was already a mother of two. The ecstasy of being able to go back to the hometown was extinguished by the pain of having to leave her children. The music delicately expresses her mixed feelings at this moment.

I have found many wonderful music like this on this site:

    Not at all, man. I used to be a Satanist Black Metal fan, i used to listen to Gorgoroth, Inmortal, and Mayhem and some Death Metal like Kataklysm and Cannibal Corpse.

    After a horrible experience i decided to be a new person, my sir father recommended me Amethystium and because of Amethystium i found Llewelyn, you should check it out.

    Cheers
