Chinese Traditional Folk Music Enters Libraries Series -- Remuera Library

Chinese Traditional Folk Music Enters Libraries Series -- Remuera Library

Remuera Library, 429 remuera road

Libraries are spiritual sanctuaries where knowledge accumulates and minds are nurtured. Traditional Chinese folk music is an artistic treasure that has endured for thousands of years and carries the nation's cultural heritage. When the two come together, they spark unique oriental poetry and romance. To carry forward the fine traditional Chinese culture and bring folk music closer to people's daily lives, the event "Chinese Folk Music Enters Libraries" has officially kicked off. We bring a variety of traditional musical instruments and classic folk music pieces into this world of books. The melodious erhu, lively guzheng, crisp pipa and serene bamboo flute take turns playing melodies, presenting the age-old charm of folk music to every reader. There are no bustling stages, only quiet book corridors. Art is no longer distant but within easy reach. Here, you can wander among books while enjoying elegant music, where the depth of words blends with the warmth of melodies. People of all ages gather to appreciate the art, which appeals to both refined and popular tastes. We hope more people will understand and fall in love with folk music, allowing this traditional art to thrive forever amid the fragrance of books. We sincerely invite all culture and music lovers to come to the library and embrace this wonderful rendezvous of books and folk music.
