I want to ask you a question? Is erhu ugly?

Hello, my major in the Conservatory of Music is Erhu. I can tell you responsibly that our national musical instruments in China all have their beautiful features, otherwise they would not have been circulated for hundreds of years. However, in folk music, there are several representative instruments, among which erhu is the highest, and its position in folk music orchestra is equivalent to that of violin in western orchestra, that is, the position of instrument queen. According to your question, we can put erhu first in folk music, followed by guzheng, pipa and flute. Because its soft timbre is close to human voice, it can arouse our inner resonance, so it is very nice.

In addition, you can also check online that erhu is very popular abroad, especially in Japan, thanks to 12 girl band. Learning erhu in Japan is a fashion. Then many foreigners study erhu in the United States, Britain, Germany, Canada and other western countries. So if you learn erhu, you will learn it correctly.

At the beginning of learning erhu, because beginners may be familiar with the essentials of action, bow handling and string pressing, the sound will be ugly, but after you practice for a period of time, the timbre will become more and more beautiful. Of course, learning erhu requires perseverance. After all, learning erhu is not particularly easy. It will take about four or five years to reach the full level (that is, Band 10 of Amateur Test), but if you really reach that level, I think you will find it a pleasure to play the piano, because you will naturally play well when you reach that level.

In addition, if you find erhu difficult to learn, your pipa, guzheng and dulcimer are also good choices. Here, I want to say that the simplest of these three instruments is the guzheng. Of course, many people think the guzheng sounds good, but it's quite big and hard to move. Pipa is more difficult to learn than guzheng, and the difficulty of dulcimer lies in the combination of guzheng and pipa. Finally, if you think the above musical instruments are difficult to learn, then I can recommend Hulusi, which is very simple and can be learned in one day. Of course, skills need to be practiced. Or try the flute, but it's a little more difficult to learn than the cucurbit, but both instruments are more exhausting because they both play musical instruments.

In fact, there is nothing better than listening to musical instruments, but people have different preferences!

That's all, I hope it will help you!
