What’s the song playing in this video?

I recall having heard this song periodically on the Sunday evening New Age program on my local National Public Radio station in the late 90’s-early 2000’s; the original version was punctuated with croaking frogs. This nature video was originally posted in April 2022 on Douyin; I can’t seem to decipher the Chinese well enough to track down that information.

ETA: Alan Robertshaw on We Hunted the Mammoth has given me sufficient information to identify the song: it’s “Forest Fantasia”(or “Forest Rhapsody”, depending upon the translation of 森林狂想曲), composed by Wu Jindai and performed by ocarina master You Xuezhi, both Taiwanese; there unfortunately isn’t a tag for Taiwan.
