This fluttering vintage postcard girl moves me to listen to the Butterfly Lovers violin concerto.
This modern music piece, composed in 1958, is a symbolic retelling of a Chinese legend. The tragic story is very Romeo and Julietesque.
The legend involves the star - crossed lovers, Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai, who turn into butterflies after death. It is a beloved classic of Chinese music. It is also very youtubeable. This orchestra masterpiece is calming and surprisingly familiar.
