Abstract
Through hands on experimentation of sounds from both traditional Chinese Bamboo flutes and the standard western flute (the standard concert orchestral flute), as well as research from written transcriptions and recorded audio, my FUSE project recreated traditional Chinese sounds into western flute practice by transcribing Chinese Music notation into western music notation (the standard music notation of Europe and the Americas). The poster will illustrate this process, and show examples of the outcome.
