Nope. It's neither the old couple in the beginning or the blind violinist. It sounds similar to the Shenhua Memory/Guilin arrival track.

Yea, i thought the same thing, in that this was just the music from the beginning of the Guilin disc. But then since it was work done by Zim and MK, i knew straight away that this was unheard/new. What was i at, doubting them! #-o

Absolutely beautiful erhu find. Thank you, Master Kyodai and Ziming. You should both have the custom title of Dojo Archaeologist. I am impressed, though not surprised, that Shenmue still holds mysteries.

Ok it turns out this is not a unused track after all. This track is used in the beginning of the Guilin chapter for the Dreamcast version. I labeled this "unused" because I was using the Xbox port as a reference. If you listen and compare both versions it's obvious they are not the same.

Oh, fascinating. Whether by accident or design, Shenmue 2x uses Shenhua's Memory track for the Guilin entrance.

knew i had heard that track from somewhere and now you've cleared it up. i tend to play the xbox version a lot more these days so i am less familiar with the dreamcaset guilin opening.
i never realized they were different tracks until know.

may have been a mistake, since the xbox version is just the shenhua flashback music, as the above poster commented.
