Did You Know?
| Trivia | The musical soundtrack is filled with Western classics, from Mozart to Mussorgsky's Night on Bald Mountain - and even the clarinet opening of Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue. However, one classical piece is played by a character, when Sun Xiaoxia serenading Lv Die plays Brahm's Waltz in A-Flat Major on the guitar. See more » |
