Kore Groove 8 - Eastern Grooves
Posted by Walt Snider on 22 Jun 2008 | Tagged as: Compilations, Kore Groove Episodes
(coming soon!)Kore Groove is proud to present a world fusion collection from Magnatune.
Asian music encompasses numerous different musical styles originating from a large number of Asian cultures. Asian music most often uses the pentatonic scale. Philippine music uses 8 notes or the European way of music because Philippines was colonized by Spain.
The music of Asia is as vast and unique as the many cultures and peoples who inhabit the region. Principal instrument types are two- or three-stringed lutes, the necks either fretted or fretless; fiddles made of horsehair; flutes, mostly open at both ends and either end-blown or side-blown; and Jews’ harps, either metal or, often in Siberia, wooden. Percussion instruments include frame drums, tambourines, and kettledrums. Instrumental polyphony is achieved primarily by lutes and fiddles. On the other hand, vocal polyphony is achieved in different ways: Bashkirs hum a basic pitch while playing solo flute.
