Mountain Flowing Water is one of the top ten ancient songs in China. "High mountains and flowing water" is a metaphor for bosom friends and music. This song is a guqin song, which was divided into two parts in the Tang Dynasty: mountains and flowing water.
The music score of "Mountain Flowing Water" was first seen in Zhu Quan's "Magic Secret Spectrum" in Ming Dynasty and included in "Taikoo Shenpin". His explanation said, "There are two songs, Mountain and Running Water, but this is only one. The first ambition is to care about mountains and rivers, saying that benevolent people are Leshan.
Extended data:
"High Mountains and Flowing Water" was originally a film. Since the Tang Dynasty, Mountain and Running Water have been divided into two independent piano pieces. Among them, the song "Running Water" got more development in modern times, and its music score was first seen in "Magic Secret Spectrum" in Ming Dynasty (written by Zhu Quan at 1425).
The flowing water played by Mr. Guan Pinghu was recorded in the golden record of American space probe Voyager-1, and was launched into space on August 22, 1977/kloc-0, looking for human "bosom friends" in the vast universe.
