In China itself, though Confucian rites are still performed, many of the original instruments of the Confucian orchestra are no longer in use and have probably not been for centuries, whereas they still are in Korea. Most instruments on this recording originate in China, as do the four hymns presented. Recorded by the world-renowned ethnomusicologist John Levy. Orchestra of the National Music Institute, Seoul.
