Lang Lang: Zhao Jiping - Dance from Qiuci 

Qiuci (龟兹) is an ancient country west from China and has close cultural and trade connections with China for over a thousand years. Some of its cultural heritage and archaeological discovery currently locate in Kuche city (Xinjiang province, China) and its suburb areas. The ancient country is known for its music, dance and other forms of art, and that's why the song is called "Dance from Qiuci", to emphasize the geographical area of the music. Consequently, for whatever the reason, to translate "Qiuci" (not to mention even the pinyin of the ancient country is not correct) as a "turtle" is nothing but the worst translation for ever, which presents a total misunderstanding. Hope the copyrighter could make a change to it.

So many different colors in that one little instrument. Thank you both for the performance.

very wonderful

Lest my eyes deceive me, Lang Lang is not the only performer in this video. Perhaps full credit is long overdue!

Amazing !!

Me causa curiosidad cómo hicieron coincidir dos tipos de temperación diferentes... la europea (igualada) y la oriental... Este instrumento de viento q me recuerda al oboe esta afinado a la manera europea...

J'adore cette musique, si légère et nuancée.

Playful!
