Synopsis

Product Description
This Rough Guide, like China itself, is hugely diverse and enthralling. Explore the sounds of over a billion people - from the ancient tones of the erhu and pipa and the Inner Mongolian folk revival to original Shanghai jazz, Chinese Pop and the latest underground beats.

Bonus CD: Introducing Hanggai. Downtown Beijing might seem a strange place for a Mongolian folk revival. Yet Hanggai are finding inspiration in native folk traditions, drawing on a repertoire of magical songs that have all but disappeared during China's past.
