Classical Music for thought...

If you thought that Western Classical was provocative and new for its time, you should also open your eyes to ancient Asian sounds. This collection is a great compilation of melodic and virtuosic musicianship from Qu dynasty that was over 2000 years ago. From this compilation and these artists, it is clear that contemporary music theories like improvisation and interpretation were already prevalent in Asia's ancient history. This compilation is both beautiful to listen to and a piece of music history that should be appreciated and definitely not lost.
If you like the Chinese culture, you must check this!
