AhDoe – Music as an International Language

3 months ago, Chicara suggested me to create a page to link to all the piano sheets at Ahdoe.com. Yeap, that’s a very brilliant idea and in fact, I have been thinking about it all this while. I guess this is a very good example of “Great minds think alike”, and yes, I am selfishly giving myself a compliment…

Ok, don’t get mad, I will of course present this credit to Chicara too.

And today, I announce that all posts with any embedded piano sheets or music scores will be grouped under the Piano Sheets category.

Ah Doe’s readers will be able to dip into this Category with a resourceful of piano sheets starting from today!

Besides writing piano musical scores, Ah Doe volunteered to “expand” the musical instruments list for this famous Chinese New Year song.

A Preview of Gong Xi Gong Xi, an orchestral version

Due to the fact that this song is re-arranged for Chinese traditional orchestras, the musical instruments chosen are mainly and exclusively for them. Some notable instruments are Yangqin (Introduced in one of my posts earlier), Zhong Ruan, Pipa, Liu Qin, Er Hu and etc. I will blog about these instruments in the future.

I have reserved the full version of this piece of musical score for some orchestras so that they can perform it during this Chinese New Year season. However, if you are still interested in it, whether for individual or group (Orchestra I supposed) purpose, you can always contact me at callme@ahdoe.com .

For the second time, Ah Doe wishes you a happy and blessed year ahead!

You better watch out…

You better not cry…

To cut in short, Ah Doe is going to tell you why…

Chinese New Year is coming to town! Hip Hip Hurray!

When Chinese New Year is around the corner, red lanterns are everywhere, ang pows are also everywhere (Difference is whether it is empty…), people are dwelling into markets to buy mandarin oranges and nice food for this festive season and New Year songs are in the air.

Greetings from Happy Mandarin Orange 

Girls are considering to slim down in order to accomodate more calories, they gave themselves a brand new new year objective and put it in the first priority – to give their best shot to be pretty so that they have the courage to show up in front of their friends and relatives during Chinese new year. (Yaya, I am one of them)

So, if you can’t see me during this period, that will mean that my I missed my target or deadline… 🙁

Well, a happy contribution from Ah Doe for this 2008 Chinese New Year, a famous lunar new year song sung by Yao Min (姚敏）and Yao Li (姚莉). The Yao-s are famous with their musical talent. They are in fact real brother and sister, featuring Yao Min as the composer and Yao Li as the singer.

Guess what, the famous “Wishing You Happiness and Prosperity” or best known as “Gong Xi Gong Xi” is one of their masterpieces. If you want to heat up the Chinese New Year atmosphere, you can always play this song when you party at your friends’ house.
