    I love the fragile "weeping" sound of the erhu. The way string instruments can bring out their sound, it's like they're singing whenever they play; the erhu's is between a soulful birds song and a weeping lady.

    • @jablesmegee
      @jablesmegee 9 лет назад +27

      blazednlovinit i think theres a science behind the erhu tho, it has the same range or frequency,
      "The erhu sounds similar to human voice, and can imitate many natural sounds such as birds and horse. It is a very expressive instrument, most well-known for playing melancholic tune, but also capable of play merry melody."

    • @Hermit-Crab
      @Hermit-Crab 8 лет назад +18

      The erhu is known to have a very melancholic sound. The title for this particular piece of music may roughly be translated as "Memories of Yubei". Yubei refers to the northern part of the Henan province. Judging from the title and the melody, the music seems to be full of melancholy and nostalgia reminiscing the historical past of the Yubei area. You probably didn't know it but you clearly felt it. Hence the tears.

Eason music (singapore based) has many more options and proceeds into higher qualities (imo) and shipping can be expensive. That's why I believe it's good to go with SOA first since it's relatively close most likey, and good shipping. Came pretty quick, too! Good luck on your journey!

    The erhu is one of the most beautiful instruments because it has the same range as a human voice, it literally touches us on an emotional and instinctual level. When the erhu sounds sad, we literally feel the sadness of another human being.

    I don't know what to say. Both the musicians are extremely talented and tremendously practiced. The erhu has piqued my interest since I heard of its name in a few books I read. I tend to be a very curious person and did my research on this instrument. I can't even imagine how long it would take to learn even the basics of playing the erhu. two strings that can make so many different astoundingly beautiful sounds must surely be worth learning. what makes me sad is how few people I've asked have never even heard of an erhu. it's beautiful and is even possible to move someone to tears (which I have tested on a few of my friends). I wish this kind of music and instrument would be better known by those I have encountered.

    She knows how to rock that erhu like a fiddle, yet makes it weep so gracefully. Great job!

    The erhu is a really difficult instrument to play; though in theory it is like a violin, the techniques involved are very different. It's really hard to switch strings because of the fact that the bow is actually between them. The fingerings are also farther apart than on a violin.

    • @PeterDad60
      @PeterDad60 5 лет назад +2

      Switching strings is not difficult at all, it's a natural movement. I play Erhu and also provided an Erhu for my adult Daughter to play. I'm just ok, not someone who should be recorded, still I do have my moments of really nice music as I play upon my Erhu.

    Just got back from Foshan and finally was able to buy my first Erhu, which has been a dream of mine since I was around 10yo. I'm still unable to play it correctly yet its sound is almost healing to me, no matter how little I can play.
    I can't wait to be able to perform simple pieces.

    Wonderful thank you. The lilting lament and commiserate over much hard work and life's hurts with a drift towards a sentimental longing an imbibe in longings, a reverie at suns set with a cup or two of Saki and then a leap of energy into may's dance of flower and fecundity of joys sunning smile and all places in between.
    From a lullaby to rest to a call to the dance such strings resonate from east to west, in Ireland a sentimental ballad to a prancing jig a reel a jest. Great beauty vigour and grace.

    The chinese culture is one of the most acient in history. The Chinese People new the Creator God, as you can see in the old Chinese Alphabet.
    The Erhu with its voice-like sounds imitates for me wonderfully our longing and worship to God. Also it reflects to me the sorrows of this world and the hope for a New One.
    Wonderful!
