Sheng:
The sheng (Chinese: 笙) is a Chinese mouth-blown free reed
instrument consisting of vertical pipes.
It is one of the oldest Chinese instruments,
with images depicting its kind dating back to 1100 BCE,
and there are actual instruments from the Han era that
have been preserved today.
Traditionally, the sheng has been used as an accompaniment
instrument for solo suona or dizi performances.
It is one of the main instruments in kunqu and some other
forms of Chinese opera. Traditional small ensembles also
make use of the sheng, such as the wind and percussion
ensembles in northern China.
In the modern large Chinese orchestra, it is used for both
melody and accompaniment.
The sheng has been used in the works of a few non-Chinese
composers, including Unsuk Chin, Lou Harrison, Tim Risher,
Daníel Bjarnason, Guus Janssen and Christopher Adler.
Some believe that Johann Wilde and Pere Amiot traveled
to China and brought the first shengs to Europe in 1740 and
1777 respectively,[2] although there is evidence that free
reed musical instruments similar to shengs were known
in Europe a century earlier.
