琵琶行HD

 琵琶，是东亚传统弹拨乐器，已经有二千多年的历史，最早被称为“琵琶”的乐器大约在中国秦朝时期出现的。“琵琶”这个名称来自所谓“推手为枇，引手为杷”（最基本的弹拨技巧）所以名为“枇杷”（琵琶）。在唐朝以前，琵琶也是汉语里对所有鲁特琴族（又称琉特属）弹拨乐器的总称。中国琵琶更传到东亚其他地区，发展成现时的日本琵琶、朝鲜琵琶和越南琵琶。琵琶被称为“民乐之王”，“弹拨乐器之王”，“弹拨乐器首座”。拨弦类弦鸣乐器。南北朝时由印度经龟兹传入内地。木制。音箱呈半梨形，张四弦，颈与面板上设用以确定音位的“相”和“品”。演奏时竖抱，左手按弦，右手五指弹奏。是可独奏、伴奏、合奏的重要民族乐器。

Ten Faced Gongs

The Ten Faced Gongs(also named yunluo) is a set of usually ten small tuned gongs mounted in a wooden frame, with each gong being about 9-12 cm in diameter, and the height of the frame being about 52 cm. The yunluo's gongs are generally of equal diameter but different thicknesses; the thicker gongs produce a higher pitch. It is often used in wind and percussion ensembles in northern China. Old drawings also depict a smaller yunluo with just five gongs, which was held by a handle by one hand and played with the other.

Keyboard Guitar 2

 A keytar is a relatively lightweight keyboard (with or without a built-in synthesizer) that is supported by a strap around the neck and shoulders, similar to the way a guitar is supported by a guitar strap. Keytars allow players a greater range of movement compared to conventional keyboards, which are placed on stands. The instrument has a musical keyboard for triggering musical notes and sounds. Controls for pitch bends, vibrato, portamento, and sustain are placed on the instrument’s “neck". The term "keytar" is a portmanteau of the words "keyboard" and "guitar." Keytars may either contain their own synthesis engines, or simply be controllers, triggering notes on another MIDI capable synthesizer.
