In a stone courtyard before a red-pillared hall, musicians swing long mallets at rows of bronze bells and chime stones on frames held up by bronze figures. A line of dancers in red and black robes sways with long plumes, while a drummer plays on the steps.
Tuned sets of bronze bells and stone chimes, with dance, at the sacrifices and banquets of the Shang and Zhou
