Brief Introduction£º
¡¡¡¡ Shaanxi (called Qin in ancient times) music dates back 6,000 to 7,000 years. During that time folk songs have taken root and flourished on the Loess Plateau, nurtured by the Shaanxi people who gave it its characteristic rough, resonant, simple, vigorous and bleak quality. Rambles in the Sky, the collective name for northern Shaanxi folk tunes, is representative Chinese cultural heritage.
