A seminal monograph published by Professor Rulan Chao Pian in 1967, this is a standard reference on Song dynasty music, and a model of meticulous scholarship. The book provides a mirror for scholars to reflect on the cultural, social, and theoretical dimensions of Chinese music scholarship in the new millennium.
This new reprint edition carries a foreword by Professor Bell Yung and an introduction by Professor Joseph Lam from University of Michigan.
