OK,,,, that's it. i am not going to wait any longer to pursue this thought by only thinking it. I am going to buy a beginners erhu before the end of this year. I've found a couple sources where i can buy one. Last time i said: i want to play this instrument. Now i am simply GOING TO!

[@Hard2heart2heart]

+NNCwatcher2 Hell yeah! Don't wait around! Do it!

[@TheGrmany69]

+NNCwatcher2 buy one, and play it, use the videos to guide yourself but experiment with it too.

[@NNCwatcher2]

+Germán Rivas have one! still learning basics

[@TheGrmany69]

don't be afraid to fake it until make it, let your own expression be, even when it sound's awful, there will be moments when you will hear something good and others not so good...

[@NNCwatcher2]

+Germán Rivas absolutely! you don't want to hear the first time that I played ^^. I enjoy it very much though!

It has such a wonderful sound, I think I prefer the deep notes available to this instrument compared to the erhu.

[@nickw5004]

Can anyone recommend similar music to this

[@nickw5004]

Song or artist wise?

[@user-fx7fi6hp4g]

The pieces composed by Liu Mingyuan 刘明源 (like this one) are similar in style. Its Mongolian themed, as the techniques used in Mongolian instruments (like morin huur) are implemented on the Chinese huqin. 王国潼Wang Guotong also composed great Mongolian themed pieces.

[@mpmj96]

like the tv show? Is this in the series?

[@fatimasipen752]

May I dare to guess that this music is not Chinese, it is likely uygurian.

[@user-fx7fi6hp4g]

Mongolian themed

[@brendan1888]

Actually, it is Chinese, sorry to say! But Japan, Vietnam, and Mongolia all took inspiration from Chinese music!
