A Chinese Musical Journey: Hangzhou - A Cultural Tour with Traditional Chinese Music

Often cited as the end of the Grand Canal, Hangzhou - the capitol of the Zhejiang Province - serves as the focus of this musical armchair tour set to the tune of songs played on traditional Chinese instruments. From a Bach Minuet performed on the Chinese dulcimer to traditional Chinese songs featuring the "silk and bamboo" wind and strings ensemble, the dizi, the Chinese bamboo transverse flute, viewers will travel to such unique locations as a local silk museum on a journey that is as delightful for the ears as it is for the eyes.
