香港中文大學古琴展





Dear All:
    One advantage of working in HK is to be near Chinese musical sources
and activities. During the past couple of years, I've been involved with
qin music research. One major project is an exhibition of qin instruments.
In conjunction with the exhibition is the publication of the catalogue and
a CD. Below are information on these two items for those who are
interested. I apologize for double posting to some of you.  Bell Yung

    The Department of Music and the University Museum and Art Gallery of
the University of Hong Kong collaborated on an exhibition on the Chinese
instrument qin entitled " Gems of Ancient Chinese Zithers" at the
University Museum (10/14 to 12/5) in which fifty instruments, with the
oldest dating to Northern Song dynasty (960-1127), are shown. The
exhibition catalogue, edited by Bell Yung and published by the University
Museum, is a 150-page  oversized book (10"x13.5") with eight essays (in
