Chinese Band: May Day 五月天
Mayday (五月天), is a rock/pop band from Taiwan that dreams of being the “Beatles for Chinese People” (华人的披头四). I’ve often wondered why they’d limit themselves to just the Chinese. The band has five members: Lead singer Ashin 阿信, Guitarist/Band Leader Monster 怪兽, Guitarist Stone 石头, Bass Player (+random other instruments) Masa 玛沙, and Drummer Guanyou 冠佑 (formerly known as Yanming 谚明, or just Ming).

Ethnic Han music
Han Chinese make up 92% of the population of China. Ethnic Han music consists of heterophonic music, in which the musicians play versions of a single melodic line. Percussion accompanies most music, dance, talks, and opera. Han Chinese Folk Music had many aspects to it regarding its meaning, feelings, and tonality. This genre of music, in a sense, is similar to the Chinese language. This relationship is made by tones, sliding from higher tones to lower tones, or lower to higher tones, or a combination of both. These similarities mean that the instrument is a very important part in mastering technique with both left and right hands (left hand is used to create tonality on the string, right hand is for plucking or strumming the string), particularly for the classical (literati) tradition. Sometimes, singing can be put into the music to create a harmony or a melody accompanying the instrument. Han Chinese Folk's feelings are displayed in its poetry-like feeling to it with slow soothing tempos that express feelings that connect with the audience or whoever is playing the piece. Han Chinese Folk is delivered in a way, using silences that alter its meaning, this also creates a sound similar to poetry.
