Chinese: Gagaku, imperial court music, ancient.
Look up instruments under Chinese music in Wikipedia. There should be recordings of these instruments, often labeled ‘classical’ or ‘traditional’.
Japanese: Shakuhachi, Koto, and others. Ditto look up the category and seek similarly labeled recordings.
Once armed with a few instruments names. you can check on Amazon and see what they have to offer – often you can audition tracks.
happy hunting,
