The Ancients is a series of Kontakt instruments built entirely from traditional Chinese instruments I sampled while living in Taiwan.

These include the Sheng (笙), Liuqin (柳琴), and a wide range of percussion instruments (打擊樂器), recorded with RhoMei Yu and other brilliant Taiwanese performers.

The Ancients: Percussion is the first public release in the series.
