If 鳳凰展翅 is translated into English, it is called 'Phoenix Displaying Its Wings.' The introduction is played by pipa (琵琶). Then Sheng (笙) plays a cadenza passage to depict the phoenix's singing The phoenix 's graceful postures and elegant movements are depicted with superb skill of the solo instrument . This is an outstanding Chinese traditional piece , anyway.

It's what the harmonica developed based on after being introduced to europe in the early 1800s and why it was at one point called a mouth organ.

This is a very old instrument that was very important in ancient Chinese orchestras. It is unusual to see a woman playing it. If you are interested in Chinese music, look up Twelve Girls Band.. They are all beautiful and play a combination of modern music and ancient music. There is great pride taken with those who play these instruments well. But in ancient China, musicians were considered to be part of the servant class. As a musician myself, I have traveled to China. Their musicians are virtuosos who are conservatory graduates and continue the tradition of Chinese music while also playing modern instruments. They are amazing.

God damn.. china always got the best instruments

One of my favorite traditional Chinese songs.

She is so jaw droppingly beautiful as well as talented.

wonderful sound!...that's a really mesmerising performance!...

It plays out a very light kind of music.

A very talented woman playing a phenomenal ancient Chinese instrument called "sheng".

WOW! those pipa's in unison superb

Браво ! Браво ! Браво ! Восхитительно ! Потрясающе ! Обворожительно ! Завораживающе ! Очаровывающе !

This is absolutely beautiful. I cannot imagine the amount of practice that went behind this performance. The melody is so lively and full of depth. I can feel it in my soul! Fantastic!

Amazing, simply amazing. I praise you; I have yet to explore the full potential of my bong

its an amazing piece of music. love how they use the pipa.

笙在中國北方作為和嗩吶搭配的樂器在民間很普遍，同樣還有鈸，銅鑼等，都是佛教和喇嘛教的金石樂器。而在儒教更盛的南方並不常見，以琵琶，楊琴等為主流。

So much respect. I love it. I feel blessed having watched this performance

The stringed instruments are Pipa in case anyone was wondering

Enjoy the sheng

great music with great performance, Bravo!!!

Just stumbled on this video come from a video with the Chinese flute in it. What a wonderful and surprising instrument this Sheng is. We'd call it a mouth-organ, this would than be a chinese mouth organ.

From Wikipedia: The sheng (also spelt as cheng in Encyclopædia Britannica ) is a Chinese mouth-blown free reed instrument consisting of vertical pipes. It is a polyphonic instrument and enjoys an increasing popularity as a solo instrument. It is one of the oldest Chinese instruments, with images depicting its kind dating back to 1100 BCE, and there are actual instruments from the Han era that have been preserved today. Traditionally, the sheng has been used as an accompaniment instrument for solo suona or dizi performances. It is one of the main instruments in kunqu and some other forms of Chinese opera. Traditional small ensembles also make use of the sheng, such as the wind and percussion ensembles in northern China. In the modern large Chinese orchestra, it is used for both melody and accompaniment. The sheng has been used in the works of a few non-Chinese composers, including Unsuk Chin, Lou Harrison, Tim Risher, Daníel Bjarnason, Guus Janssen and Christopher Adler. Some believe that Johann Wilde and Pere Amiot traveled to China and brought the first shengs to Europe in 1740 and 1777 respectively, although there is evidence that free reed musical instruments similar to shengs were known in Europe a century earlier.

Breathtaking! (No pun intended!)

that is one crazy looking instrument. very interesting to look at, like honestly first thing that popped into my head was, " it looks like a crazy ass bong or something".

好听

Reminds me a lot of country/bluegrass harmonica. Which is fitting, since the sheng is the progenitor of free reed instruments.

Pretty girl!

I love this instrument. How difficult is it to learn?

a polyphonic wind instrument controlled by the mouth as well.. !

Yang Sin-yu is a young sheng virtuoso from Taiwan and former Assistant Sheng Principal of the Hong Kong Chinese Orchestra! :)

damn awesome!

Great!!!

ahh! I see! still takes tons of skill i bet! that's so cool you can play it.

I play the chromatic harmonica, the young child of Sheng 😁
