How does Chinese music sound different from the music you listen to?

Medicine

Len [333]3 years ago

Answer:

In general Asian music, but most particularly Chinese, has called the attention of westerners because of the sensed differences with the music that we are accostumed to listen to in the west. This is why, when we go into a restaurant that is Asian, and we hear the tunes being played, we become aware of how different they sound from what we are accustomed to.

There are several reasons for why this happens, but the most important of all is the difference in the scale system that Chinese music composers use, versus ours. While in the west we use a 7-note scale system, most Asian music, and most particularly Chinese music, use what is known as the pentatonic, or 5-note scale.

Also, Chinese music is usually played with solo instruments, or very small ensembles, not how it is done in the west, and the emphasis tends to be on certain types of wind instruments such as zheng, and also on cymbals and gongs, which give this type of music a very peculiar characteristic.

These are only a few of the reasons why Chinese music may sound so different to what western people are used to.

Explanation:

Atopic dermatitis (eczema):

It is defined as a condition that results in the inflammation, redness and itchiness of the skin.  It is a chronic condition and usually children suffer from it. It is recommended to keep your skin moisturized by using the creams or ointments prescribed by the doctor.

In our case, the nurse has given the instruction to parents to apply the emollient immediately after the bath to avoid the dryness of skin otherwise it can cause the itchiness of the skin. Similarly mild soap also keep your skin soft and fresh as the ingredients like Aloe Vera, olive oil etc. The trimmed nails prevent you to make rashes on your skin because you can make new rashes on skin in the case of itching.
