You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.201.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 23:54, 31 July 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

((Short description|Musical instrument))
The '''''paixiao''''' (traditional: [[wiktionary:排簫|排簫]]; simplified: [[wiktionary:排箫|排箫]]; [[pinyin]]: ''páixiāo''; also '''pái xiāo''') is a Chinese wind [[List of traditional Chinese musical instruments|instrument]], a form of [[pan flute]]. A major difference between the Chinese Paixiao and the panpipes used in European and South American traditions, is that at the top of the Chinese instrument the pipe holes are each cut angled or with notches. This allows for bending the [[Pitch (music)|pitch]] in similar capacity to the [[Xiao (flute)|dongxiao]] down a [[Semitone|minor second]]. This allows Chinese paixiao to be fully [[Diatonic and chromatic|chromatic]] without loss in [[timbre]], even though the included pipes are tuned [[Diatonic and chromatic|diatonically]]. The method of blowing ''so'' is to hold the head of the frame with both hands, with the mouthpiece facing the front, place the lower lip on the mouthpiece, and find and blow each tube according to the pitch.<ref name=":0">((Cite web|title=소(簫) - 한국민족문화대백과사전|url=http://encykorea.aks.ac.kr/Contents/CategoryNavi?category=field&keyword=%EC%98%88%EC%88%A0%C2%B7%EC%B2%B4%EC%9C%A1/%EA%B5%AD%EC%95%85&ridx=812&tot=1778|access-date=2021-05-04|website=encykorea.aks.ac.kr))</ref>

In Korea, an instrument called the ''so'' ([[hangul]]: 소; [[hanja]]: [[wikt:簫|簫]]) was derived from the ''paixiao'' and used in ritual music. The ''so'' is made up of 16 [[bamboo]] tubes, so each sound is played in one tube.<ref name=":0" />

== History ==
((More citations needed section|date=June 2023))
The earliest paixiao discovered so far in the world is the [[bone]] paixiao in the early Western Zhou dynasty 3000 years ago.

The two earliest bamboo ''paixiao'', unearthed from the [[tomb of Marquis Yi of Zeng]], are from the [[Warring States period]] over 2400 years ago. They are shaped like the wings of a phoenix. They are all made of 13 bamboo tubes of different lengths arranged in turn and wrapped with three bamboo tubes. The surface is decorated with red three corner patterns on a black background. In ancient times, male and female ''paixiao'' were often used as ensemble to set off each other, just like male and female duets.

During the 1600 years from the Spring and Autumn period to the end of the [[Tang dynasty]], the number and length of PaiXiao were different, which were spread through the ages and improved by instrumentalists. There are still two ''paixiao'' from the Tang dynasty in the Shōsōin Repository of Tōdai-ji Buddhist temple in [[Nara (city)|Nara]], the ancient capital of Japan.

In the Institute of Chinese music in Beijing, there is a ''paixiao'' made in the [[Qianlong Emperor|Qianlong]] period (1736–1795) of the Qing dynasty. There are 16 pipes in total. Each pipe is engraved with a sound name. The craft is very exquisite, and the shape is beautiful. There are two golden dragons rising from the clouds on the set frame.

In 1981, [[Jilin opera]] house developed the double row and key ''paixiao''. This kind of paixiao has a wide range of sound, which can not only play melodious and soothing music, but also play lively and lively music.

A musician named Gao Ming (高明) plays a version called the ''paidi'' in the Tang Dynasty Music and Dance Show at the [[Shaanxi Grand Opera House]] in [[Xi'an]]; he has been a member of this ensemble since 1982. While his instrument superficially resembles the instrument used during the Tang dynasty, its pipes have [[Fipple|ducts]] rather than being end-blown, it is played with the pipes held horizontally rather than vertically, and it is set up to play in parallel thirds.<ref>((YouTube|RCH8CP5LviQ|China Xian Tang Dynasty Show Chinese flute (PaiXiao)))</ref>
