老师请用二胡演奏歌曲《画我》

Hello, thanks you for your video. We are wondering how to separate the flute from the gourd because it seems to be united. We think that we have the problem you are explaining but we are afraid to broke it. The ring is too strongly holding the bamboo. Do you have a suggestion? Thanks

Hi Mr. Hong! Your videos have been very great and helpful to me starting to learn the Erhu! I have one question, is it okay if I rest the bamboo of the bow on the sound box? I notice some of the stain coming off of the bow onto it and it had me wondering if I am supposed to keep it off or not. Thanks!

Beautiful music! Thank you for explaining the differences and similarities in both sound and construction of these beautiful instruments. I have had the privilege to see a Lakota flute performance in college which was amazing. Sharing music joins people of all different cultures together in friendship!

Liquan Qin is using the strings the same as the erhu, 利泉琴用的是二胡弦，但是“一弦一品”这个牌子不错，内外五度音准较好。

May I ask what is the music you are playing at 03:13-16? I've been very interested in learning a piece like that! It reminds me of fiddle runs. Great instrument I like the tuners are they locking? Best to you, Mike

I'd never heard of tuning the SKIN.

Wonderful! Innovating a classic instrument!

Wonderful. So beautiful

Very impressive

I love it. At $1300 and professional grade it's a little above my beginner status. Definitely something to keep an eye on.

It's interesting that this erhu doesn't have a wolf tone; my first erhu teacher showed me that this sound usually occurs on the tritone (augmented fourth) above the open outside string.

At 06:10, did you mean to say that you asked the designer to add scales to the back of the snakeskin (as well as the front) in order to improve the instrument's timbre? I always wondered whether the scales had an effect on an erhu's sound. It looks like the synthetic skin on the erhus used by the Hong Kong Chinese Orchestra doesn't have scales at all.

If you use the screws to tune the snakeskin "drum" to the same pitch as the inside (low) string, it makes the sound of the erhu better?

This looks amazing, how much are they worth?

The next generation of this instrument, with a new name: v=72WQBBv1b1Q

Is this the same kind of instrument that you demonstrated in a video from January 8, 2022, which was called "Ma shi kuo diyin erhu" (马氏扩低音二胡, expanded low range erhu produced by the Ma family)?

It is so piao liang

Thank you Mr. Hong for sharing your knowledge. Is it possible to add subtitle in English for other viewer ?

Can the reed be replaced with a new one?

this is so helpful! Thank you so much!! ❤️

This was the Erhu lesson of my dreams. Thank you for being you :)

So greateful for your video! I just picked up the Erhu a few hours ago and watched this and a past video to find out the grips, techniques and getting those strong notes to sound out without wavering (it will be quite a while to get that mellow and sophisticated sound). The way you explain makes sense and I was able to overcome issues faster. Never thought about using Chi, however I kind of get it (piano and guitar player). You're a big encouragement and really make the Erhu sing so beautifully, thank you!

"I'm not a teacher..." That is the best teacher for me! I learned a lot of this video, e.g. about the Chi... great difference in sound.

Thank-you!

您的理解很到位感谢分享

The Legend of korra is what got me wanting to learn the erhu or zhonghu. Is it the email in your description where I would talk to you? Do you still sell instruments?

Excellent video!! Thank you!! I have watched a lot of erhu videos and very few of them get into the tiny nuances that you demonstrate in this one video. I do wish that I could see your right hand the entire time when you play to see any changes your fingers make with bow holding as you switch from inner string to outer string. I look forward to seeing more of your videos.

great tutorial, thank you very much, it cleared up many of my confusions, so press the bow string with the middle and index fingers to play the inner string, press the bow with the thumb to player the outer string

Thanks very much for posting this. I just received two Bawu's (one transverse and one end-blown). The transverse one had some problems with buzzing and with the low note being "buzzy" and a bit sharp. I'll try some of your techniques.

Thank you king¡❤

Excellent! Was it hard-carved or special wood carving machine?

Wow .... excellent comment about vibrato .. such a the clash of different speed, or the particular speed being used by individual. Depends on situation for sure. Something I hadn't thought about before. Excellent topic.

Most excellent video. Thanks very much Hong.

名師指點，果然很有卢小杰老師的韻味

Mr Hong I see you use sponge like dampers instead of felt cloth ones am I right or am i just seeing wrong? I was under the impression from the place I bought my erhu that felt cloth dampers are much better than sponges but you are a very experienced player so I dont believe you would make such an easily correctable mistake as using the wrong damper.

Love reading the comments about how good the teaching is while only being able to understand 0.1% of chinese

Hello mr Hong, i really enjoy your videos! I am still pretty much a beginner erhu player but I have a question on bowing. I tried loosening the bow hair to make my bowing more versatile, its a bit harder but I feel its worth it, I have a problem though when changing from inner to outter string or vice-versa, even though im making a good sound while bowing sometimes when i change string i make a small scratchy sound before i manage to make the bow stroke smooth (this happens mostly from inner to outter string when the bow hair is very loose I have noticed). Are there any tips to make the transition from one string to the other smoother? Like maybe try to change strings when reaching the end of the bow?

Best erhu video! I learned so much!

I heard that Oogway Ascends theme in there at 11:35. Mhmm.

cool

好听

I've been really struggling with bowing as a beginner and this video helped me so much! Thank you very much for uploading it, it was very clear and easy to understand

Hong 师傅 你好！ I just found an old erhu that belonged to my 阿嬤, and I am very excited to learn how to play it since it was in practically perfect condition. I ordered a bow, bridge, damper, and qianjin, but when it came to the tuner i was really confused. This specific erhu (from Shanghai music factory 1) seems to have a fine tuning mechanism in the base of the erhu that is more akin to a violin/viola fine tuning system and I'm really confused on how to string it because it looks like there's very little to stop the string from flying out while playing. I can't find anything on the internet like it! I was wondering if you had seen anything like my description before and if you had any advice. 謝謝師傅!

My erhu does not make sound with bow? Any ideas?

I just ordered my erhu. I’m going to have a lot of fun. Thank you for this lesson!😊

awesome !👍👍👍❤❤❤
