Introduce your students to something truly special with this simple yet captivating piece! Featuring an optional gǔzhēng introduction and a backing track, it’s quick to teach—simply remove bars from the instruments for easy setup. The B section follows a consistent melodic shape, making it even more accessible. If you have a student who plays the gǔzhēng, they can shine by performing the introduction as written or by improvising. This one’s a student favourite for good reason!
