On a 2016 trip to China, I saw a spectacular performance of Tang Dynasty dance and music. These 3 men, part of a percussion group,​ are dressed in the ​clothing and using ​the ​instruments of that period in Chinese history.  The title reflects the back and forth exchange of sounds between “gossiping” ducks, while a “growling” tiger, spoken by the large drum, waits nearby​, hoping​ for his meal.
