ok. and guess it's my turn to post!!! have been rather lazy to post. hahas. i didn't even post on my own blog kays. hahas. will post later i hope. =X. warning, i think this post is gonna be real long.hahas. XD This section is specially for the SYF 2007 team. it has indeed been a long long journey. right from the start, where we first started with the sectionals and the giving out of our 谱. i can just recall back the way the four dizis try so hard to get the 谱 for 箫。the way we fight for it. hahas. i'm totally diguisted by the number of times i've changed my 谱. through those editing and stuff like tat. hahas. how "WONDERFUL" it is. next, the learning of the 谱. super irritating. i still remember. the tears that i shed when i tried to play 阿佤山 第47小节,箫solo part. the number of times i said i want to give up. the number of times i was told to go for 私人课(yet till now, i've not got any)。 those days where we all came back for practises after practises. and performances after performances. we kind of like had 4 performances from the day we got the 谱 for 阿佤山till the day we had SYF. first one was the one with east zone chinese orchestra at Victorial Concert Hall. Second was at TECC for the 阮族乐团 。Third, ESPLANADE CONCERT HALL! the one where all the guan yue slept in the performer's room. forth was the 狮城迎春 which was quite recent. hereby, i want to thank everyone for your attendence and everything that you did from the start.

Our Instruments Dizi ![]() Three main types of dizi are frequently used in the wind section: the bangdi, the qudi, and occasionally the koudi. The bangdi is shorter in length and smaller in diameter and produces a clear and bright tone. It is frequently used in bangzi opera of Northern and southern China, hence the name bangdi. The longer and thicker qudi produces a richer and mellower tone. The qudi is usually a fourth higher in pitch than the bangdi. The koudi is the highest-pitched of all dizis.
Sheng
![]() ![]() The sheng is a Chinese free-reed bamboo mouth organ. The earliest type ever recorded in history had 14 pipes and was discovered in Zeng Houyi's tomb in Hubei province. The most common types of sheng today include a 17-pipe instrument and a modified version for contemporary compositions, which has an expanded range of 21-37 pipes. The tone of the sheng is lucid and bright. It has a huge range, a chromatically complete scale and is able to produce chord voicings.
Suona
![]() The tone produced by suona is loud, piercing and uplifting, thus it is usually used to perform vibrant and lively pieces. However, its repertoire also includes some mellower pieces. The suona is commonly used as an accompaniment in the Chinese opera, singing or dancing, but also for more sombre occasions, such as during a traditional Chinese funeral procession. It is also utilised in solos or ensembles for various occasions and ceremonies. |
