This playlist features recordings from the Accents & Dialects and World & Traditional music collections of the British Library Sound Archive and has been curated by the artist Jill McKnight, as part of her exhibition 'Desire Lines' at Leeds Art Gallery and online from 25 March to 16 October 2022. Jill took inspiration from these collections and those of Leeds Art Gallery in the creation of her new artworks for the exhibition.

It also includes new recorded versions of the songs 'The Derby Ram' and 'The Cruise of the Calabar' performed by the Yorkshire Trans Choir, which were chosen by the artist for their focus on reinterpreting traditional folk songs with a political twist.

Three Jolly Fishermen, performed by Steve Gardham (1970)

Zha Fuxi (Chinese: 查阜西; 1895–1976) on qin (and unidentified flute player on reel 3) recorded circa 1945. 

Zha Fuxi (Chinese: 查阜西; 1895–1976), also known as Zha Yiping (查夷平) was a leading player and scholar of the guqin. Born in Jiangxi, he started learning guqin in his childhood. In 1936, he co-founded the Jinyu Qin Society (今虞琴社) which later became one of the major national musical organizations for the guqin. In addition, he was a vice-chairman of the National Musical Association of China, president of the Beijing Guqin Society, and a department head at the Central Institute of (Folk) Music. In 1945, he came to the United States and made a few recordings of his music at the Library of Congress, including those heard here. 

Apart from his profession on guqin, he worked for the civil aviation company and was active in the labour movement. After the People's Republic of China was established in 1949, he was a vice-chairman of the National Musical Association, president of the Beijing Guqin Society, and a department head at the Central Institute of (Folk) Music.

Few recordings of his qin performance have been published, though more remain in private and institutional circulation. His playing style was unaffected but serious and elegant; he specialized in qin songs (accompanying himself vocally) and contributed several noteworthy dapu reconstructions, as well as earning the nickname "Zha Xiaoxiang" for his mastery of the piece Xiao Xiang Shui Yun.
