Experience traditional erhu

? Music is wonderful and magical, expressing our joys and sorrows like language. However, among many kinds of music, I have a special liking for the music played by erhu.

? When I first learned erhu, I just played it aimlessly and mechanically according to the notes on the score. The more I played it, the more boring it became. But later, I gradually mastered the skills, and playing erhu became less boring and became a pleasure.

? My erhu teacher not only taught me how to play, but also told me the background of creation, so that I could better understand the emotional tone of each song. When I play "horse racing", it seems that I am riding a horse with the Mongols, and I can run faster than their horses. When I played Good Night, I felt lighter all over, and a beautiful night appeared in front of me. While playing New Pastoral, a group of young herders appeared in front of me, riding horses and galloping happily on the grassland. ...

? What impressed me the most was that Erquan reflected the moon. This is a very famous tune, which enjoys a high reputation in the international music world and has been played by many erhu masters. The composer of this song is A Bing, a blind beggar. This piece of music is a portrayal of his life and a masterpiece handed down from generation to generation. A Bing turned his sadness, anger and disappointment into a tearful piece of music, which revealed the darkness at that time and expressed his pain. At first, I couldn't play this song well. The teacher always says that my feelings are not in place and I want to give up a little. But I remember how hard and painful it was for A Bing to write this song. He doesn't eat or wear, but he can still play the erhu as always. He didn't give up. What reason do I have to give up? So, I regained my confidence, experienced the living state of creation over and over again, thinking about the story that Teacher Ma told me, and continued to pull down. At first, I seemed to see the beautiful scenery of Huishan Er Quan; Gradually, the music came to a climax, and I felt that A Bing was fighting against his fate and longing for a better life in the future ... Finally, the teacher praised me. Now, I can play skillfully and emotionally. Even my grandmother often lets me play it for her at home.

? Small erhu, thin two strings, opened the door of music for me and led me into the world of music. Playing erhu has been integrated into my life. I like playing erhu, I like playing erhu.
