The best tutorial! It’s so important to loosen the tuning peg a lot before you put the string on. Then after putting the string in, pulling up on the slack string while tightening the tuning peg- makes it easy peasy. Thanks for the great video!

Hello, I absolutely LOVE your channel! May I make a suggestion for a video? It would be amazing if you made a longer video explaining to us about the history of traditional Chinese music, and how it was played, what ensemble, the music, etc. For people wanting to discover these rich traditions it can be really hard to know which piece of music online is actually accurate to the ancient traditional artforms and which are made for our modern tastes but just using ancient instruments. For inspiration, I highly recommend Farya Faraji's musicology videos (it's called Epic Talking in his channel), where he tells us about Middle Eastern music and helps us understand and identify authentic pieces. KZbin is flooded with "relaxing ancient Chinese music" and we have no idea what is what, haha. Anyway, sorry for the long comment and congrats on your channel!

What is the name of the music you play?

Being a hobbyist woodworker (I make wooden crank baits for fishing) and a beginner erhu player, I be most interested in learning the process of making an erhu (the bow too). I probably can make a crappy one right now. I got all the general woodworking skill set. My weak point is actually are my ears. Others may be interested in taking classes too. The process may take too much time but at least cover the major steps. You can also hav e beginner and advance classes. Here in the US, there are such classes to learn the craftsmanship (general carving, cabinetry, hand tools,,,,,). The woodworking stores would have classes for turning and even building instruments (like guitars). To me it's kind of like a vacation trip for learning. You do it for the fun of it. You charge accordingly. If such learning experience is available, I would sign up and make the trip.

Even the hulusi?

omg thank you so much for the guide now i can put the membrane or whqt else on my flute❤❤

It would be helpfulto hear the difference instead of it being described in merely two words.

Thankyou for this video it is very helpful, I am learning Erhu but I need to get the qianjin right I had to buy more because the one that came with the Erhu was so short 😂

🤣🇧🇷💯👍

i know u might not respond but. question. is there a difference between a dizi and a irish flute?

The Mujiuchen is really hard to control the strings and the “noises” because it echoes very brightly. But I believe for players who want to work on getting rid of noises, this is also a must have guzheng. It is perfect to use to work on finger strength. Each pluck should avoid string-nail contact noises as much as possible. Thanks for the educational video, I’m waiting for my Mujiuchen’s Mujiuchen to come!

Do you think the gap at the pinky is a bit large? Pinky would get stuck in there when doing Yaozhi right?

Whats song does she plays at the end of the chip?

把阿炳灵魂给丢了

Thank you. I absolutely love these graceful instruments. 🥰

Just a question I got my erhu it come with resin but is it supposed to be rock hard like hard candy ?

yayy liuqin appreciation !! ive played it for 4 years

I’ve been playing the pipa and Erhu for 2 years 🎉❤

My Grandpa is a instrument teacher from China, he teaches students how to play Erhu and other instruments like Drums and Suona. And my Grandpa teaches me how to play an Erhu when I was 6 years old!

Do you have a school in Georgia?

Best video I’ve found on this. Thanks!

Is it available as online classes

i wanna buy guzheng but is soo damn expensivee huhu

I've been pronouncing it as guizhong. Oops. So its guzheng.

And wait.. Is that a Snake on Erhu and Huqin?

This video just introduced me to a world of instruments I’ve never heard of!

Yes yes let me lern I can’t wait

You did not use membrane

I still wonder how long would it take to manufacture a hollowed out guzheng from the pre-air dried materials (wood)?

How do you put back the bow?

Another difference is that the guzeng has multiple bridges going diagnal across the middle of the board, while the guqin has only one bridge and is at one side of the instrument

Please create a "How to tune a Guqin" video too if that's ok 🙏

Thank you so much. This has been extremely helpful for me to help my mom change her Guzheng strings. Keep up the good content 👍 Good video quality

I like the pear shape! Do you guys have a post schedule?

是非善惡終入因果，是輪廻的加速器。六道皆是苦！不沈淪六道才能救六道之苦。知苦才有離苦的動機。要看清楚，要深刻地理解。 是非善惡是二泉，印月是空花雪月，虛妄無需掛心。明月才是真心。

Merhaba ben Guqin profesyönel enstrument istiyorum nerden ala bilirim? Wechat numaranızı ala bilirmiyim? 🙏

Ben almak istiyorum nasıl ala bilirim ve nereden ala bilirim profesyönelce 🙏

Guqin ! money ?

Noo! Now the song is stuck in my head!

I love how amazingly the cello blends in with the erhus!

I like how the holes in the base of the zhongruan looks like birds! I also noticed that unlike my upright bass, the very top of the instrument curves instead of twists. These are very beautiful, high quality instruments!

Are there age limitations for lessons? Do you guys have online lessons? I want to learn the dizi but I don't live CLOSE to signapore😂

I love this instrument and Chinese people them selves ❤

sometimes it feels like teh sound of dizi is so dull, ive been playing for a whiel but i cant make that beautiful sound, Its either Dull or screechy

Do you know where I can buy heptatonic guzheng?

Guqin by far is my favorite instrument to play. It’s a personal instrument and I’m very attached to mine even though it isn’t the best quality, it’s still so beautiful. It saddens me that the Guqin is not more well known, especially in the west. It was by chance that I happened upon the Guqin, and I’m so glad I did.

I like the sound of both to study. When I first learned about both, I had many doubts about how they were different, thanks for the answer.

What is that. Erjiao ? Where can I get some?

Best erhu
