how to play hulusi and bawu, lesson 4-------how to read Chinese simple score

Chinese simple score (or Numbered musical notation, Jian pu in mandarin)come into being in France at 17th century, spreaded to China from Japan at the end of Qing Dynasty. now it is still popular in China, even useful than the sheet music at here. 90%+ Chinese music are recorded by it, so if you can read it, there will be a lot of music for you. bring you to the Chinese music heaven. simple score is very easy, if you can read sheet music. it's suited for folk Chinese music and some solo, I think.1.Notesin simple score, we use Arabic numerals to mark the solfege name. do=1 re=2 mi=3 fa=4 sol=5 La=6 ti=7














when 1=C please see the picture
