Zheng

The zheng (Chinese: 箏, zhēng), also called the guzheng, is a plucked, zither-like instrument. It has movable bridges and 15-25 strings, allowing the player to customize its sound.

The zheng is used for much of the ambient music of the show, such as during the tale of the Two Lovers and for the Bei Fong's theme (which is, incidentally, a traditional Chinese folksong called "The Jasmine Flower".
