Title: A birdsong to share
Post by Fabi^^ on Apr 8^th, 2006, 9:43pm

I have a beautiful birdsong to share here. I didn't have recording equipments so I just record it down as musical score. I heard this in Tin Shui Wai Central Park. It may be a magpie robin. But are the songs of magpie robins that melodious?

This song was repeated many times. The bird sang it very loudly.

Sorry, this is only for those who know music.

I can't read music, so I can't say if it is melodious or not, but I believe its the first time that somebody has posted a music score on this BBS.

Congratulations Fab^^

I tried to convert the score into midi. But it is difficult to match with correct instrument and tempo. The original pitch is also too low. It sounded to be a familiar bird song. But I cannot remember which bird. Maybe some other experts can help.

Midi for Fabi's Orignal Score (http://everwell.dynu.com:3880/BirdWatching/Fabi-Bird-Song/Fabi.mid)
Midi for Fabi's Score but with two octaves up (http://everwell.dynu.com:3880/BirdWatching/Fabi-Bird-Song/Fabi-2OctaveUp.mid)

It should be an octave up :-/
