Dance of Yao
The slow melody of this piece evokes the image of young girls dancing in the moonlight. As the tempo gradually picks up, it paints the picture of the Yao minority tribe celebrating festive occasions with songs and dances.

Little Bird
Little Bird is a folk melody from China, arranged into a duet.

Belinda Yan, Virginia Yan

Composition
This piece was cleverly composed by Celina To when she was 8 years old. Now, 4 years later, she plays this piece for us all.

Celina To

Moonlight over Spring River
This song originated from the Tang Dynasty.

Wanda Wang

Embroidering the Golden Banner
This song came from the middle of China in the Shaanxi Province, the old Tang Dynasty Capital.

Regina Ngo

Mystery Song
This is an American piece arranged by Weishan Liu. It justifies the fact that Western pieces can be played on a Chinese instrument. We won't tell you the name of the piece, but we assure you that you will recognize it as soon as you hear it.

Tea Leaves Dancing
The style of this piece is familiar with the south of the Yangtze River.
