Vegetable jade: It is produced in Shaanxi, Qi Mei, Yushan and Shi Gan. Its color is like jasper, and it is extremely delicate and moist.

Kangxi folk used to use it as a tool.

In the Qing Dynasty, people came to Lingbi to collect stones and chime bells very frequently, mostly for royal sacrifices or sacrifices to Confucius.

The compilation of exhibits in the Forbidden City in Beijing and Confucius House in Shandong is well documented: "Stone Lingbi" or "Lingbi Palace".

During the Republic of China, "Shanghai Dayuehui" successfully made a set of antique chimes made of Lingbi Pian Stone with reference to historical materials, and the sound quality and timbre were not inferior to those made of Lingbi Pian Stone preserved in Confucius [1].

Some experts who study China's ancient musical instruments in Japan, Sweden and other countries say that China's ancient "arrangement" can be called guqin, and the metaphor is not necessarily inappropriate.

Since the founding of New China, some central and local music schools and organizations have been coming to Lingbi to engage in quarries.

1985, Nanjing Art Troupe played a song "Silent Night" with "arrangement" made of Lingbi stone, which shocked four people.

With the help of Lingbi Stone Carving Craft Factory, Nanjing Art Troupe put Flirting and Jade Qing on the stage, which attracted the attention and praise of experts and listeners.

"Wandering" has a long and glorious history and has made outstanding contributions to the laws and regulations of China.

Shining with the brilliance of China ancient culture.

After liberation, in order to excavate traditional art and carry forward national culture, stone brick factory, Shi Zhuan mining factory and Shi Zhuan craft factory in Lingbi county were successively established to develop and utilize Lingbi's unique Shi Zhuan.

For more than 40 years, it has attracted many famous Chinese and foreign scholars, music experts and museum (institute) archaeologists. Not far from Wan Li, they took pains to investigate and study the "floating youth in Sibin".

Some Shi Zhuan craft manufacturers in Lingbi County are also actively producing various high-quality Shi Zhuan and exquisite Shi Zhuan handicrafts, providing high-quality products for Chinese and foreign experts and scholars in research, collection, teaching, performance and display, and making great contributions to revitalizing national music.

Lingbi Piano Craft Factory once produced three sets of pianos of different types for Nanjing Song and Dance Troupe, including clouds, fish fillets and strips.

From 65438 to 0985, the troupe participated in seven concerts of "The Sound of Stone" by urban percussionists and the first national art festival held in Xi 'an, the ancient city.

During the performance, these three sets of new antique chimes won great appreciation from Chinese and foreign musicians for their unique acoustic effects.

The newly made fish chimes and strips are pure and gorgeous in sound quality.

When playing, the fish's voice lingers in the high-pitched area, soft and pleasant, and the fish's voice rotates in the high-pitched area, clear and loud.

What's even more peculiar is that it can be played not only with percussion, but also with scraping, which is really rare in national percussion instruments, so it has been highly valued by Chinese and foreign music experts.

1970 was launched for the first time. When China's first man-made earth satellite "Dongfanghong" traveled in space, the crisp and melodious music "Dongfanghong" was played to people all over the world, and it was arranged with a stone.

Lingbi stone chime, pure sound quality, crisp and pleasant, broad overtone and magnificent.

When playing, Hong's overtones are full, covering other musical instruments, and his tacit cooperation, coordination and integration with other musical instruments are unparalleled in the world.

"Thinking of the shore and floating youth" is a treasure of China music culture, and its long and glorious history is the pride of the Chinese nation.

Today, in this fertile land of the "hometown of pianists", pianists here will create more exquisite pianos with their hardworking and intelligent hands, and will continue to make greater contributions to the music culture of the Chinese nation.
