chinese6th century BC

Bo Ya (伯牙) was a legendary guqin master who is said to have lived in the State of Chu during China’s Spring and Autumn period (c. 6th century BCE). Though details of his life are shrouded in myth, he is credited—via early texts like the Lüshi Chunqiu—with composing seminal qin pieces such as Shuixiancao (水仙操) and the suite Gao Shan Liu Shui (“High Mountains and Flowing Water”), works that evoke the grandeur of Mount Tai and the sweep of great rivers. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Bo+Ya">Rea
