The Peking Opera Percussion
After the success of Gu Zheng , the Beijing Opera Percussion is the second virtual instrument in our team of expert Chinese developers in playing the traditional Chinese instruments virtually with great passion.
The Percussion of the Opera of Beijing is a collection of high-quality drum and percussion instruments used in traditional Chinese Opera, especially Peking Opera, one of China's cultural treasures, and Kunqu Opera, known as the "teacher" or "mother" of a hundred operas. . The library also includes other percussion instruments commonly used in contemporary Chinese music, such as a 4-foot-tall drum, played in solo and ensemble performances, various gongs and cymbals. Even the only Bianzhong found in the tomb of Marquis Yi of Zeng was included. It is an ancient Chinese instrument dating back to 433 BC, consisting of several bronze bells, hanging from a wooden frame and struck by a hammer.
Like the Yellow River Sounds Gu Zheng, the Beijing Opera Percussion has been produced using high-level sampling, editing and programming by local Chinese producers, who have a natural understanding of their culture and a unique passion for expressing the true quality of Chinese instruments.
