Add some of that erhu for some extra spice

Anything non pentatonic = blasphemy

As such my thoughts on Chinese music are that of ones that represent the oriental culture and I feel that Chinese music is music that brings people together, considering how communal the Chinese can be.  

Following oriental music that is commonly played during the lunar new year, I find my impression of Chinese music to include the pentatonic scale and have traditional chinese instruments like the er hu and guzheng. ]]> 2020-02-12 08:16:18 UTC https://padlet.com/natalie_alexandra/vxabuldfm04u/wish/444197777 https://padlet.com/natalie_alexandra/vxabuldfm04u/wish/444200145 1) Chinese music has that pentatonic sound
2) Chinese instruments like Er Hu, Pi pa and Gu Zheng come to mind when I think Chinese music, even Chinese drums
3) but at the same time when I think Chinese music, I also think about mando pop and how most of the famous mandopop songs are very emotional and tell a tragic story]]> 2020-02-12 08:24:18 UTC https://padlet.com/natalie_alexandra/vxabuldfm04u/wish/444200145 abdulalim_sazali https://padlet.com/natalie_alexandra/vxabuldfm04u/wish/444201267 Chinese music mostly uses the pentatonic scales for its melody but can sometimes have harmony moving outside of the diatonic harmony. Traditional Chinese music can easily be recognise by the timbre of the instruments. It is pretty different compared to modern Chinese music which uses a lot of western instruments but ideas of melody and harmony are pretty much still similar.]]> 2020-02-12 08:28:00 UTC https://padlet.com/natalie_alexandra/vxabuldfm04u/wish/444201267 nayak_aditya https://padlet.com/natalie_alexandra/vxabuldfm04u/wish/444202990 1) Features heavy use of the pentatonic scale.

In modern times, these includes the likes of jay chou and JJlin etc.  But otherwise , in Ancient times, perhaps we will never know. But from research , I think it could have something to do with erhu and pipa and of course some Chinese words. Chinese opera is one great example to listen to if u wanna get more understanding into Chinese music as all originated from there in the Olden times. ]]> 2020-02-12 08:50:33 UTC https://padlet.com/natalie_alexandra/vxabuldfm04u/wish/444208460 gabriel_m1 https://padlet.com/natalie_alexandra/vxabuldfm04u/wish/444211853 Anything going back to the traditional root of chinese music to modern day mandopop. 

Chinese orchestra music which consists of traditional chinese instruments such as the dizi, suona, pipa, guzheng, erhu, etc...

The use of the chinese pentatonic scale separates the eastern and the western music.

The scale lends to making simple harmonies, but perhaps to maintain the Confucian norms of simplicity and clarity, harmony isn’t emphasized. In contrast, Western-style music uses the heptatonic scale that lends to producing complex harmonies among various instruments in tension.

Sometimes Chinese music is also heptatonic which is an extension of the pentatonic structure. Chinese music has very descriptive lyrics that evoke emotions using metaphors.]]> 2020-02-12 09:15:38 UTC https://padlet.com/natalie_alexandra/vxabuldfm04u/wish/444215208 https://padlet.com/natalie_alexandra/vxabuldfm04u/wish/444216747 Gigi

2. Dou Wei's recent music is quite chineseish and for me he represents as a pioneer who combines experimental music and traditional chinese music together.
3. Chinese pop music, for me the chinese songs lay between 2000 ~ 2010 are still the best.
