520 $aThis book opens the door on the magnificent living traditions of folk music in rural China. Instrumentalists performing in Chinese villages today are still practising traditions handed down from the temples and courts of imperial times. Stephen Jones's book illustrates the beauty and variety of these folk traditions, from the plangent shawm bands of the rugged north to the more mellifluous string ensembles of the southeastern coast.
520 8 $aWorking closely with the Music Research Institute in Beijing, Stephen Jones has used his fieldwork in China to write a book offering a rare insight into the riches of these traditions. He does much to dispel our image of Chinese music as consisting largely of revolutionary opera and kitsch urban professional arrangements of folk music, and looks beyond official culture to the true folk traditions.
