Thank you for tuning in. There are many different types of music in China developed throughout the history. The kind of sound played on the stone chime was mostly likely the ritual music played in ancient imperial court. If you are interested, please watch more videos in our channel, which has a large variety of music. :)

this stone chime is in fact the origin to the character 石 and why this character for stone is drawn such way.

[@TheMexikanKaktus]

It's the origin of the character 声 (as in 磬). 石 is explained as a stone beneath a cliff (厂)
