The timbre and volume of the erhu have a lot to do with the quality and texture of the erhu itself. I think an obsessed erhu lover should have at least two erhus, one for practice and one for playing. The grade depends on the actual situation of each individual.

In the short 37 spring and autumn, Mr. Liu Tianhua left us a huge and precious wealth. His success has given us many inspirations: 1. In-depth study of national folk music and opera music is the foundation of his creation. Art comes from life and is higher than life. Throughout the ancient and modern times, accomplished musicians at home and abroad have humbly and deeply studied the music...

Speaking of Liu Tianhua, everyone will naturally think of his top ten erhu songs. After nearly a hundred years of circulation, they have become models of today's traditional music.
