This is my classical Chinese music piece. I chose this style because I think that classical Chinese music is really interesting. I am taking Mandarin, so I thought that it would be really cool to learn more about the culture. I discovered that using a F pentatonic scale makes it sound a lot better and it has to run really smoothly. Also, it can’t have notes that are long steps apart. It has been really hard to compose Chinese music, because we are trying to make it sound Chinese, but it hasn’t really sounded Chinese. Lately, it has been sounding more Chinese, but we are still trying to make it sound better.
