YangQin is a relatively new member of the Chinese instrument family. It was not until the late Ming Dynasty (mid-17th century) that YangQin started to show up in China.

It is well-known that dulcimer was originated from the Persian civilization, but since YangQin's sound character fitted so well to the taste of Chinese mentalite, it soon spread widely, especially in the southern China.

Kong Audio faithfully captured and recreated YangQin for modern Chinese composers' unfulfilled needs.
