Dizi (bamboo flute) has been a traditional and popular instrument in China for many centuries and as an essential Chinese instrument, it is still widely used today. It can be heard everywhere ranging from modern Chinese film scores, to modern Chinese pop music (e.g. 12 Girls Band).
There are many variations of Dizi, and now, with ChineeWinds, musicians all over the world have access to authentic Chinese flavor directly from their favorite VST hosts - ChineeWinds includes two common Tenor Dizi, two Treble Dizi, two Bass Dizi, and one ChaoZhou Dizi.
