Flight log
Before I met Tao Di, my major musical instrument was erhu.
In 1999, I came into contact with pottery flute for the first time. I never thought that this little pottery flute would become the most important thing in my life. In fact, I went to Kaohsiung to ask for help from Guo Qingrong, a folk musician, in order to learn how to play the saw organ. Just as the teacher was studying the pottery flute, he gave me one. On the way back to Taipei, I played all the way and was deeply attracted by its timbre and small shape. Therefore, I began to look for any information related to pottery flute, and found that in Taiwan, "pottery Flute" has always been regarded as a "toy"! Since it is a toy, most manufacturers care about its shape and colorful, of course, few people seriously deal with the details of timbre and intonation.
In order to find the correct tune of the ceramic flute, I visited many countries, so I collected all kinds of ceramic flute. At the same time, I also bought many foreign ceramic flute performance albums, and explored the performance techniques. In 2000, several friends and I formed a "pottery flute tour group" to Japan to participate in the concert of Japanese national treasure level pottery flute player Tsung Jiro. The master's performance on stage almost forgot to breathe, and the intoxicated expression on the faces of many pottery flute fans on stage made me deeply moved, so I secretly made a wish We should promote the pottery flute in Taiwan.
In order to promote pottery flute, I began to teach pottery flute in primary and secondary schools in Taipei County. However, the problem of intonation still bothers me. If I want to import professional pottery flute from abroad, it is too expensive for children and the popularity will be greatly reduced. Fortunately, in Yingge, an important town of ceramic products in Taiwan, I found kilns and masters willing to cooperate. Since then, Taiwan made professional ceramic flutes have been produced, with reliable intonation and civilian price.
Next, it seems that Tao Di led me through more incredible life turns So in 2001, I opened a pottery flute store, got in touch with the record industry, got a foot in my friend's album, applied for the MRT street artist, and even produced a pottery flute album And all this is due to the "pottery Flute" Nowadays, the pottery flute has become a necessity that I carry with me. No matter when, under any mood, as long as you play the pottery flute, you can make your heart settle down.
The origin of pottery flute
Taodi, with a more orthodox name, is called "Yanglong". In western music, it is classified as flute instruments, especially most flute instruments are tubular, while Cuan is spherical or egg shaped. Although it is also a kind of edge musical instrument in sound production, it is a kind of closed pipe musical instrument, unlike other flutes which are open pipe. In the early days, Cuan was made of natural materials such as clay, bone and fruit shell. Now it is mostly made of ceramics, so it has the name of pottery flute.
Speaking of the origin of the pottery flute, it is difficult to define, because in the birthplaces of several civilizations in the world, archaeologists found that prehistoric humans used to drill animal bones to make simple sounds. In China, there is an egg shaped wind instrument, called "Cuan", which is made of clay and clay with six sound holes. This instrument has a history of more than 7000 years, and has also influenced other ethnic groups in Asia at that time.
Today's pottery flute is mainly influenced by a musical instrument that imitates the singing of birds made by the Mayans of South America as early as the 6th century. At that time, Yang Xun played an important role in the ceremony, usually in the ceremony, but its function was still decoration, not music. This musical instrument was later spread to Europe. An Italian named Giuseppe Donati named this primitive bird like instrument with 10 finger holes, which was similar to the gun shaped pottery flute now seen, and named it after Ocarina (Gosling) in Italian. Later, Ocarina became the common name of pottery flute.
Six hole pottery flute
This kind of English German six hole pottery flute is the most common one at present, with a range of ten degrees (do to treble re) and up to ten degrees (do to treble mi). In the market, the C-key high tone flute is the most common, and there are Alto Flute and bass flute. The larger the volume, the lower the sound. The tonality of a ceramic flute in C, usually including C, F and G. The fingering method is cross fingering, which is slightly more difficult than twelve hole pottery flute fingering.
Twelve hole pottery flute
The so-called twelve hole pottery flute is a Japanese twelve hole pottery flute. Due to its shape, it is also known as "gun type pottery Flute" or "submarine pottery Flute". It adopts horizontal blowing style and has three tonalities of C, F and G, just like six hole pottery flute. However, twelve hole pottery flute can blow all the semitone tones with semitone hole, so it is the pottery flute with the widest range at present, reaching 13 degrees (bass La ~ high) FA). Today, most of the twelve hole pottery flute fingering methods adopt the Japanese standard fingering method. When there is no ascending or descending mark, the scales are arranged from bottom to top in order. It is similar to the straight flute fingering method used in primary schools. As long as you release the fingers in order, you will have doremifa. It is easy to control and the fingering method is relatively simple and easy to remember.
