folklore, summoning themes of natural splendor that resonate
across generations. This
intricately illustrated picture book is accompanied by eleven
instrumental performances by world-renowned pipa master Liu
Fang. Notes on the origin of the pipa and each
composition appear at the end of the book. A free teaching
guide and activity sheets are available for download.Book
