【集思晨读 Lewis Day 86 中国文化特辑 】
015 编钟 Chime Bells
Good morning, everyone! It's Tues. 3rd. March. I am Lewis saying hello to you all from Yangzhou.
大家周二早上好，今天是三月三号! 我是Lewis，在扬州给大家晨读！
今天的中国文化特辑跟大家分享 编钟 Chime Bells
1. Chime Bells -"Bianzhong" are the most majestic and holy ancient instrument in China.
2. As a symbol of power, they were used for sacrificial ceremonies or other crucial ceremonies starting 3500 years ago.
3. "Bianzhong" were composed of bells with different scales.
4. The bells are played by mallets and create the sounds of seven musical scales much like the piano.
5. What's more amazing is that one bell can generate two notes when struck at different spots.
6. Its exquisite cast and pure sound reveal the high level of ancient Chinese civilization and wisdom.
That's all about this morning's sharing.
Now Let's enjoy a piece of music with Chime Bells.
