我要的幸福 SYF, for us, is on wendesday. we worked so hard during this 2 years. from the boring basic techniques training, to the crazy figuring out the notes and rhythms for a va mountain, to the unproductive practices (and thats why ding lao shi will sometimes say guan yue is one of the worst sections), to the excitement of getting jian kuai's pu, to the hectic combine sessions where we got scolding hundreds of times, to today. PRSSCO guan yue is all ready to challenge SYF. i attached wo yao de xing fu in this blog entry cause i think this part of the lyrics is meaningfully meaningful. (sorry huifang, ure not the ONLY one using chinese now, hoho) 我只想坚持每一步 PRSSCO's future now lies on our hand. lets do our best. (anyway its my VERY VERY LAST 'PERFORMANCE' WITH PRSSCO, awww) gaoyinsheng LEGEND. LOL PRSS g.y blows at 5:31:00 PM. |

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. | |
