Why are fewer and fewer people learning Chinese traditional musical instruments and more and more people learning western musical instruments?

Various musical instruments have their own advantages and disadvantages. Personally, western musical instruments are difficult to learn and refined, while traditional national musical instruments (except flutes) are difficult to learn and refined.

Comparing guitar and erhu, erhu solo can play a sad sound, but erhu is difficult to get started. Guitar has a fingerboard, a personality, and can play a rhythmic and gorgeous sound.

For professional musicians, it is king to play the characteristics of each instrument.

Professional musicians treat all musical instruments equally. Bamboo disciples have the harmony of bamboo flute, and the flute is clear.

If you play bamboo flute, you need several flutes, one for each flute.

The same is true of playing cucurbit silk.

Playing western musical instruments, a piano and a guitar is enough.

Traditional musical instruments, such as erhu, pipa and guqin, all need a strong sense of music, while western learning needs to remember its position because of its accurate pitch. (except violin)

Many national musical instruments are difficult to learn, let alone learn well. It is easier to learn western music than to learn it well.

All kinds of musical instruments have their own merits, and people who know musical instruments will understand that musical instruments are works of art, and there is no distinction between ancient and modern Chinese and foreign, and there is a difference between difficult learning and easy learning.
