Description
There appears to be a connection between Celtic and Chinese music, maybe it's simply the pentatonic scale, maybe there is more to it. Anyway, following the Early morning piece for hulusi and strings I decided to compose a jig for noon time
As before, the hulusi part can be played by a flute (again: The slide for the flute is played by gradually placing the finger on or sliding or gradually taking it off the tone hole, or by rolling the headjoint to create a pitch modulation.)
The zip file contains score and parts and also an mp3 of the string accompaniment in case a hulusi or flute performer would like to play along with it.
