Shirley Qin on the guzheng in HD 1-16-10

On January 16, 2010, there was a travel event hosted at the National Geographic Society in Washington, DC. Among other things, there was some traditional Chinese music. This video is a song called Liu Yang River, played by Shirley Qin. The instrument is called a guzheng -- Shirley refers to the guzheng being the predecessor to the Japanese koto. There is a lot of background noise, but I hope you enjoy this traditional Chinese music.

I shot this on a Canon Vixia HF11 AVCHD camcorder and edited it in Corel VideoStudio Pro x2.
