Erhu tone index table

The fingering table of erhu timbre is shown in the following figure:

There are many tones in erhu music, especially amateurs often like to play songs with erhu, and they will be exposed to music of various tones. Of course, some people try to play music with different tones by fingering the pitch of erhu 1, with 5 strings (D key) or 2 strings (G key).

But first of all, the range of many music is not suitable for playing with D or G; Secondly, some music, especially erhu music, should not be played in a different tone, because it is not only inconvenient in fingering, but also because of the change of the name of the empty string (for example, 1 and 5 are changed to 2 and 6), the charm and charm of the empty string with different sounds can not be fully exerted.

General tuning

The five commonly used tuning chords are 15, 52, 63, 37 and 26. Among them, 15 and 52 are usually called basic tuning, which belong to pressing method and are widely used. The other three tuning methods are chord cutting. The original phoneme refers to the first phoneme, including two empty strings, which can be controlled with four fingers after holding the piano bar in the left hand a little below the golden bell. Learning to play must start from the original position, because the original position of each tuning is the basis of the rest. To determine what kind of tuning to play in a piece of music, we should first pay attention to the lowest tone of the music.

1) 15 string

The chord 1.5 is a fixed chord with an inner chord of 1 and an outer chord of "5". Among the five commonly used tuning strings, it is the easiest to get started. In general, any music with the lowest pitch of "1" can be played with 15 strings. "Anti-Huang Er" in Peking Opera music is usually played with 15 string. If erhu adopts "d, a pitch", the music played by Yan 15 string is "1= d"; In folk music, the technique of bending 15 string is called "gong gong Diao".

2)52 strings

The 52-string is a fixed string with an inner chord of "5" and an outer chord of "2". Any music with the lowest pitch of "5" is generally suitable for playing with the 52-string. "Huang Er" in Peking Opera music generally uses 52 strings. If erhu is D and A, then the music played with 52 strings is "1-G". In folk music, the technique of bending 52 strings is called "Gong Zheng tune".

3)63 strings

The 6 3 string means that the inner chord is "6" and the outer chord is "3". All music with the lowest pitch of "6" is generally suitable for playing with 6 3 strings. "Xipi" in Peking Opera music generally adopts 63 strings. If erhu is tuned with D and A, the music played with 6 3 strings will be "1= f"; In folk music, the fingering of 6 3 strings is called "six-character tone".

4)37 strings

The 37-string means that the inner chord is "3" and the outer chord is "7". Any music with the lowest bass of "3" is suitable for playing with 37 strings. If erhu is tuned with D and A, then the pitch of music played with 3 7 strings is "1='B". In folk music, the technique of bending 37 strings is called "Shang Zi Diao".

5)2.6 strings

The 26-string is a kind of fixed string with an inner chord sound of "2" and an outer chord sound of "6". All the music with the lowest sound of "2" is suitable for playing with 26 strings, and the "anti-Xipi" in Beijing opera music is also suitable for playing with 26 strings. If the erhu is D and A, then the 26-string tune will rise to "1-C". In folk music, the method of pressing strings with 26 strings is called "ruler sound"
