On stage, Jiang Youyao played the zither very well.
"Wild Geese Descending on the Sandbank" depicts the scene of wild geese flying across the sky in autumn, sometimes circling, sometimes looking back. An old saying goes, "Capture the clear and desolate mood of autumn, with the wild geese flying and calling," embodying "the clear autumn sky, the refreshing breeze, the calm sands, clouds stretching thousands of miles, geese's calls in the sky, using the wild swan's lofty aspirations to express the breadth of a recluse's spirit."
This melody was melodious and fluent, and Jiang Li hadn't expected that Jiang Youyao would choose such a piece as "Wild Geese Descending on the Sandbank." She thought that a delicate lady like Jiang Youyao would play a more delicate piece of music. It's not that women couldn't play bold pieces, but because the zither sound reflects the player's state of mind, how could Jiang Youyao's state of mind be so expansive and open?
But Jiang Youyao played quite well.
