Duo Practice - Mist of Jiangnan Music
Mist of Jiangnan Music
"Mist in Jiangnan" is a piece composed by Mo Ming Qimiao's original music team. It was composed by He Tu and later quoted by many music teams for lyrics.
It describes a story about a rainy night in Jiangnan, where a couple meet again after being separated for a long time. Unfortunately, things are different, the heroine is married to someone else, and the two are destined to have no connection. Among them, the phrase "Mist in Jiangnan" is used to describe the hero's mood, as if his peaceful mood were suddenly shattered by heavy rain, or as you can say, silenced and covered up forever, like the Mist in Jiangnan.

About the Chinese Music Instrument "Theories"
Here, three women listen intently to the strains of a lute-like ruan. Their pensive expressions, leaning poses, and tight-knit triangular grouping reflect the art and theories of the Eastern Jin master Gu Kaizhi (ca. 345–406), who advocated “capturing the spirit through the form.” Fu’s fluid, curving brushlines also capture something of Gu’s musical “iron wire” draftsmanship.
