China Instrument Music

This booklet and CD set introduces readers to the magical sounds of harmonic overtones--"the amazing phenomenon of physically playing a single note on an instrument, including the voice, and creating two or more tones at once. The resulting vibrations touch listeners on a level that is not just physical. Since ancient times, this technique has been used by different cultures to move the soul.The throat singing of acoustic groups, such as those from Tuva in China, has mesmerized audiences. Their traditional music originates with the horsemen who, while watching over their herds, used these bone-penetrating sounds to communicate with each other over the vast Mongolian plains. Tibetan monks are also well known for this throat singing technique. The use of harmonics occurs in the music of aboriginal cultures throughout the world, in Australia, Europe, and the Americas. You also hear it in classical music and rock and roll.Harmonic Overtones explores the history of this musical technique and provides the technical information you need to create the sounds yourself. Two CDs, one with step-by-step instructions, the other with examples of harmonics from aboriginal cultures as well as its use in modern music give a complete overview of the technique and its healing properties. The book also includes an extensive reading and music list for those who want to further investigate the spiritual magic of sound.

"Explores the science behind overtone music and explores the healing properties of the tones.

Nestled against Tibetan highlands in the remote mountains of Liangshan in southwest China, the land of the Nuosu people was until the 1950s beyond the easy reach of the Chinese government, and the culture of the Nuosu (a branch of the Yi group) developed with little Chinese influence. In the 1960s China's Cultural Revolution suppressed and eroded Nuosu culture, but since the 1980s there has been a resurgence of Nuosu ethnic identity and culture, and a revival of traditional arts. An introductory chapter presents the history and culture of the Nuosu, and essays illustrate each of the traditional visual arts: wooden house architecture, featuring intricate post-and-beam construction and carved decoration; clothing and textiles, including elaborate needlework; red-yellow-black lacquerware, seen in both traditional village-made and modern factory-made versions; silversmithing and jewelry; musical instruments and their use; and two aspects of the ritual culture of the bimo priests -- ceremonies for the souls of deceased ancestors and rituals to expel and exorcise ghosts. Mountain Patterns includes photographs representing every corner of Nuosu territory and displaying a wide variety of regional styles. The book is designed to accompany an exhibit at the Burke Museum of Natural History and Culture at the University of Washington.
