The musicians play a number of “Da-chuei” pieces, such as Shi-er-zhang, Opening the Gate Wide, or Red Parallels, depending on the situation and personal preferences. At the end of the ceremony, when the offering of paper money (wang-liao) takes place, Ba-yin musicians usually play A Poem of Seven Lines, a “Da-chuei” piece. At the end of a particular stage, they simply play Small Reunion as the concluding piece, while at the end of the entire ceremony, they play Grand Reunion as the final piece.
