Performance

Composer He Xuntian, in Sunyata Dance for clarinet and orchestra, and Whirling Udumbara II for He-drum and string orchestra both written, was probably the first significant composer to use the instrument.
The performances of Amrta Song series III in Shanghai World Music Week in 2011,[3][4] Dance in Meditation series IV in 2012, and Amrta on Water series V, the first music scene on Huangpu River in 2013, were introduced He-drum.[5][6][7]
Ehesuma was the first He-drum soloist to use the instrument. She performed with the Israel Symphony Orchestra in Scent Dance He Xuntian Works Concert in 2014.

gollark: Interesting fact: Feature wise, AV1 is specifically designed for real-time applications (especially WebRTC) and higher resolutions (wider color gamuts, higher frame rates, UHD) than typical usage scenarios of the current generation (H.264) of video formats, where it is expected to achieve its biggest efficiency gains. It is therefore planned to support the color space from ITU-R Recommendation BT.2020 and up to 12 bits of precision per color component. AV1 is primarily intended for lossy encoding, although lossless compression is supported as well.
gollark: Does anyone?
gollark: It might be for Verilog.
