Shang Tone - CD Five Tones Healing Music

Chinese `Five Tones` Healing Music is based on the `Five Element` Theory in traditional Chinese medicine. This music is composed to regulate the circulation of `Chi` (Qi) in the human body, improve the functions of internal organs, strengthen psychological condition, and stimulate emotional reaction in order to prevent and cure illnesses.

Different kinds of music are prescribed for different illnesses on theoretical grounds. The acoustic effects of these five kinds of music in their five different tones moderates the movement of Qi in the body in response to the release of Wood Qi, the rise of Fire Qi, the stability of Earth Qi, the induction of Metal Qi and the descent of Water Qi. They act upon the liver, heart, spleen, lungs and kidneys.

Their actions on the body's organs and the Qi mechanism result in improved psychological condition and activated emotional function. These in turn will regulate the functions of the organs themselves.

This is where the theory of Healing Music with Five Tones lies. On this basis, specific therapeutic music is prescribed to particular pathological condition.

Shang Tone relates to Metal Qi. The music starts with metalic sounds of the luo (gong) and pieng-chung (bells). It helps to induce the Qi inside the body.

Performed by: Central Chinese Music College Orchestra
