一曲箫笛
[yī qŭ xiāo dí]
The name 'Yi Qu Xiao Di', meaning 'a tune from a flute'. The Xun (Chinese bamboo flute) and dizi (a transverse flute made of bamboo) both produce soothing melodies which can carry a wide array of emotion—joy, sadness, anger, love, peace. This pseudonym expresses one's love towards traditional musical instruments or preference for classical Chinese music, representing serenity, artistic sentiments, solitude, nostalgia for times long passed, melancholy and other profound states of mind or emotional depths in humans.
