Today’s 4-track prepared #guzheng piece was inspired by the dumplings made by my parents. It’s tradition for us to eat dumplings on the 1st day of the new year. Wish y’all a healthy CNY!

#1234 Wu Fei’s Music Daily — Silent beams 晚山采霓虹
Last Friday, I hiked up the hills. By the time I reached the top, it was already dark. The lit-up downtown of #Nashville was a rare sight for me. Hope this #guzheng piece brings you beaming joy.

1229 Wu Fei’s Music Daily — Zebra grin 斑马笑
Today’s piece was recorded on 4-track guzheng. The inspiration came from a safari trip in South Africa 15 years ago. I was fascinated by the wild animals that we passed by, especially the goofy & cute zebras.

I was fascinated by the wild animals that we passed by, especially the goofy and cute zebras. They were the most friendly to us, unlike the rhinos or the elephants. We got chased by them on 2 separate occasions. Scary.
How much I miss Africa!
Hope this piece brings you joy.

In the world of AI, making mistakes has become more valuable. At least it is real. I took this photo yesterday near my home in Nashville. The colors are so intense under the sun that it looks almost like an

oil painting. I used overtones on the #guzheng in the piece. Because it’s multi-tracked, sometimes my plucking doesn’t line up perfectly. I used to think it’s a flaw for recorded music. Not any more. It’s probably hard to fake mistakes. Hope this song can massage your ear drums.
