What is the famous traditional bamboo wind instrument in China?

The famous traditional bamboo wind instrument in China is the flute.

The flute is the oldest Han musical instrument discovered so far, and it is also the most representative and national musical instrument among Han musical instruments. China bamboo flute is one of the woodwind instruments commonly used in China traditional music, which is generally divided into Qu Di in the south, Bangdi in the north and alto flute in the middle. Generally, the range can reach more than two octaves.

Most flutes are made of bamboo, but there are also flutes made of stone flutes, Yu Di and mahogany, as well as ancient bone flutes. But the best raw material for making flutes is bamboo, because bamboo flutes have better sound effect and lower production cost.

Extended data:

China flute has a long history, which can be traced back to the Neolithic Age. At that time, the ancestors lit bonfires, set up prey, sang and danced around the captured prey while eating, and played by drilling holes in the tibia of birds (trapping prey and transmitting signals with sound), thus giving birth to the oldest musical instrument unearthed in China-bone flute.

1977 bone whistle and bone flute about 7000 years ago were unearthed in Hemudu, Yuyao, Zhejiang. In May, 1986 and 16 vertical bone flutes (made of bird limb bones) were excavated at the early Neolithic site in Jia Hu Village, Wuyang County, Henan Province, with a history of more than 8,000 years.

The sound holes range from five holes to eight holes, most of which are seven-tone flutes, and some sound holes are added with small holes, which completely conforms to the timbre of modern China. 1987, seven Jia Hu bone flutes (about 9000 years ago) were unearthed at Jiahu site in Wuyang county, Henan province, which are the earliest musical instruments in the world.
