description
The guzheng, also called a "zheng," is a horizontally played harp (or a plucked "half-pipe zither") with a resonating body. It resembles the Japanese koto, with a curved soundboard made of soft Wutong wood, about 1.8 meters long and less than 30 cm wide. The sides and back of the resonating body are made of red sandalwood. The strings are traditionally made of silk, but since the 1960s, steel or nylon strings have also been used. They run over individually movable bridges.
The guzheng was popular as early as 475 BC, especially in the state of Qin in western China—hence its ancient name, "Qin Zheng." The strings are tuned to produce three complete octaves of a pentatonic scale. CPP Music Productions is the only professional music recording and production studio in the United Kingdom dedicated to Chinese musicians and Chinese music.
Founded in the 1990s, the studio produced numerous recordings and compositions ranging from traditional Chinese music to East-Meets-West music to contemporary musical compositions.
