As your source for hard-hitting Asian music news, we bring you word of an attempt in Kaohsiung, Taiwan to make music history. According to a government source, the fathers of said southern city "[plan] on holding an activity on December 18 in which over 10,000 people will simultaneously play ceramic flutes." In an attempt at a new Guinness World record, the myriad musicians will play a specially designed flute:

The flute is in the shape of the island of Taiwan and there is a place that protrudes from the flute that is equivalent to the location of Kaohsiung in Taiwan. This carries the significance that Kaohsiung is sounding out to the world. It is seen as a great marketing tool for the city and many are promoting the flute.
