Chinese Woodwind Instruments
|
The Dizi  |
|
|
| The most popular
Chinese wind instrument is probably the 2000 year old di (Chinese
transverse flute). The Dizi is a bamboo flute that sounds just
like a normal flute. |
| One of its fingerholes is covered with
tissue membrane. It can be classified into the qudi and the
bangdi. The former is mellow in tone and while the bangdi is
much sharper. |
