The starting-point of the Chinese foundation tone was created in the 3rd
millennium BC by Emperor Huang Ti. This was known as the Huang Chung or
"Yellow Bell" tone, setting the pitch upon which the music of
the entire nation was based. Sound was considered to arise out of harmony,
with life patterns following musical patterns. Yellow is the Chinese imperial
colour and is the colour of sacred wisdom. |

The Yellow Bell wind chime is tuned to a Chinese Pentatonic Scale - arranging
them in order of fa, sol, la, doh, re. The five notes are each related to
the five important virtues: Benevolence, Righteousness, Propriety, Knowledge
& Faith. |
