Key: A diao That's a whole step higher than the normal key of G diao, and indicates that the pipa used in this recording may have been tuned a whole step higher than normal, to B-E-F♯-B (rather than A-D-E-A).
I don't know the Chinese spelling of the pipa solo Chang Yu-Tien and no information is provided in the liner notes. You may find more information about this album on Discogs www.discogs.com/release/24832529-Official-Ensemble-Of-The-Chinese-Peoples-Republic-Chinese-Opera
@@pwong702 If this was an important early performance of Chinese music in France, perhaps Dr. François Picard would have some further information. I just asked him.
@@pwong702 That's fantastic, thank you. I've never come across this album before, but it seems very historically important in terms of introducing traditional Chinese music to the Western world. I hope more documentation about these performers can eventually be uncovered.

感謝你，豐富我的生命，很棒。
Is the Chinese spelling (in Chinese characters) of Chang Yu-Tien's name known, and is a biography of him provided in this album's liner notes?

My friend helps me to find out the name of the performer, He was 張禹田 [Zhang Yu-tian] (1919-1974).
