A piano down below:
Music all around.
When I first moved into this apartment block a few months back, I was quite charmed by the fact that it was a musicians' danwei and that I was surrounded by music all the time. However, since I've been stuck indoors with a wretched cold for most of the last two weeks, it has started to get a little grating. I grow weary of the Chopin Bicentennial!

Thanks for the new word!
It's sort of a lute thing. Rather pretty - to look at and to play (and to listen to).
I really like traditional Chinese music, but unfortunately it's very difficult to find any that's played straight, rather than with lush orchestral backing arrangements, or plodding electric bass, or.... They try to turn everything into elevator music here.
