Hammered Dulcimer Performance at Hangzhou Folk Festival

by Jill Burt

Soft, diffused light falls through low-hanging gray clouds, casting even illumination across a public square in Hangzhou. A musician sits inside a white canvas tent, hands raised holding wooden mallets poised over the trapezoidal strings of a hammered dulcimer. The instrument's polished wood surface reflects the muted sky, while the dry, cracked earth of the square stretches into the background. Banners in red and gold hang from the tent poles, fluttering slightly against the overcast backdrop. The performer wears a dark, traditional robe that contrasts with the pale fabric of the shelter. A wooden mallet rests on the instrument's edge, its handle worn smooth by use. The rule of thirds places the musician's profile against the distant, hazy outlines of festival stalls.
