Qin Shi (The Lute Master) is a masterpiece by the renowned gufeng singer Audio Monster (Lao Yao), included in his 2011 album Old Demon's Strange Journey . The song takes inspiration from the historical figure Zhong Yi, a Chu state lute master from the Spring and Autumn period, depicting the story of a captive lute master stranded in a foreign land, overwhelmed by homesickness. Blending patriotic sentiments with human bonds, it has become a landmark work in the gufeng music genre.
Beyond its historical core, the lyrics introduce fictional plots such as the bond between a guard and the lute master as kindred spirits, and the paulownia wood guqin symbolizing the tie to one's homeland, deepening the pathos of powerlessness. The portrayal of uprootedness and life's constraints in the lyrics prompts contemporary listeners to reflect on freedom and belonging. With its delicate emotional depiction and classical aesthetics, The Lute Master serves as a bridge between traditional culture and modern music, a must-listen classic in the gufeng community that has long ranked high on gufeng music charts and is beloved by enthusiasts.
