First, it is played vertically, often resting on the musician&#8217;s lap. It has no fingerboard, so the player&#8217;s fingers must hold and vibrate the strings by pressing only against the strings themselves. The <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">erhu<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> bow is already fixed between the two strings, and the bow hair is either pushed forward or backward to catch a string.\u00a0 The music resonates from the instrument\u2019s wooden drum, which acts as a natural amplifier. Intonation is one of the instrument\u2019s greatest challenges, as different positions and degrees of pressure can dramatically change the free-floating strings\u2019 pitch.<\/span><\/p>\n<h1><\/h1>\n<h1><b><i>Xiaochun Qi\u2019s Enchanting Erhu<\/i><\/b><\/h1>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Link where you can hear this instrument: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shenyunperformingarts.org\/explore\/view\/article\/e\/94I3V_FwFbM\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.shenyunperformingarts.org\/explore\/view\/article\/e\/94I3V_FwFbM<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">\n<h2><b>Guzheng<\/b><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0The ancient guzheng came in different sizes and commonly consisted of 16 or more strings made of silk placed on movable bridges, with a large resonant cavity made from wood. In the 1950s and 1960s, the guzheng and a number of other traditional Chinese instruments underwent a major overhaul to expand their sound range and enhanced their expressiveness. This overhaul then prompted the creation of a large number of new compositions in Chinese music.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2680 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/aini.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/Guzheng.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"246\" height=\"205\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0The redesign of the guzheng was spearheaded by Professor Wang Xunzhi from the Shanghai Conservatory of Music. An active member of the Shanghai music scene in the 1920s, Wang joined the Shanghai Conservatory of Music in 1956 when the school was established and with the help of his students documented a large number of traditional guzheng music, transcribing them from the traditional Chinese &#8220;gongchi&#8221; music score to that of the modern music sheet.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><b><i>Jarelle Barton<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Link where you can hear this instrument: <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=r1O87gps0SU\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=r1O87gps0SU<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">\n<h2><b>Pipa<\/b><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0The pipa became popular as Silk Road trade and travel brought Buddhism, and great change, to the region.
