Three Variations on a Plum Blossom

Zhang Yaqin
This work has been authorized by the author for display on Wenweiyuan.

Work Description

A traditional guqin masterpiece consisting of ten movements. Three of them feature the same melody played with harmonics, hence the name "Three Variations." The tune is fresh and flowing with a brisk rhythm, vividly portraying the plum blossom's noble character—resilient against frost and snow, standing tall and unyielding.
