The song Meng Li Shui Xiang(Dreamy Water Town) is based on the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River. Through its delicate lyrics, it sketches out images such as ancient towns shrouded in misty rain, stone bridges over flowing water, and the shadows of black-awning boats, and is hailed as "the most poetic portrayal of the south of the Yangtze River in the Chinese music industry". The lyricist Luo Bing and the composer Zhou Di were both influenced by the culture of the south of the Yangtze River. They combined the rhythms of traditional folk songs with pop music, not only retaining the classical artistic conception of "small bridges, flowing water and households", but also endowing it with a sense of the times through modern arrangements (such as the integration of the guzheng, the flute and the piano).
As one of the representative works of Chinese-style pop music in the 1990s, Dreamy Water Town combines artistry and popularity. It has been selected into the "Century-old Classics of Chinese Pop Music". The images of the south of the Yangtze River in the song have become cultural symbols for the Chinese-speaking community overseas to understand China, and have been repeatedly cited in reports by foreign media such as the BBC Chinese website and China Daily as a musical annotation of "Oriental aesthetics".
The key of this sheet music is in D major, and it has the best performance when played with a small A-flute using the fingering of "all holes covered as 2".
