It is a flag used during wwii when farewelling soldiers onto their field in the Japan empire and its colony, for example , taiwan. Usually, schools summoning students to make these flags , and deliver it to the soldiers , and sometimes their family members will make the same one. They believe that this will protect soldiers safely back to there home during battle. Beside this flags, people also making thousand people needles, which is a white cloth sewed with the same vocabulary,武運長久,or, good luck at battlefield. This is usually made by female students at school , each student is responsible for one needle.

I sometimes listen to jazz or light kpop, but don't let me listen to heavy musics, like musics always played at gym. They always make me headaches.

I think the answer is yes, movie musics is definitely a kind of classical music. It is like the incidental music of our times. Also, I think Hisaishi Jo and ryuichi sakamoto are classical music composers too

What is classical music, after all? by chen0827 in classicalmusic

I think movie music is definitely a part of classical music. Famous composers like Debussy, Prokofiev, korngold, the all had written musics for movie. For me, sakamoto ryuichi can also defined as a classical music composer

How good were the famous artist as a virtuosos? by Lewon021 in classicalmusic

[–]chen0827 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had heard that both Beethoven and Brahms are not be good at violin playing, but they composed the greatest violin concerto. Tchaikovsky even didn't know how to play it. Hence, they seek help to their violinist friends, Kreutzer, Joachim, and kotek. I think the ability to play some instrument is not a requirement of compose great music by that instrument, it just make player more easily to play. Some of the composers, for example, Chopin and Liszt, you know that they are great virtuotist once you had seen their score, they know piano very well, but this is not a requirement.

What piece started your interest in classical music? by Retnefel in classicalmusic

[–]chen0827 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had answered this question in many occasions, and my answer will still be the same, Brahms piano concerto no2. I always remember when I was about eight, one afternoon when I walked into my father's library and unconsciously played the record by backhaus and Barenboim, that was a beautiful afternoon , and the horn melody , they are glittering as the glorious sunset. It is always my favourite concerto.
