Erhu, also known as "Huqin", is one of the main bowed and stringed instruments in the Chinese national musical instrument family. Playing the erhu not only exercises the body, but also improves personal cultivation. With the beating of the fingers of the left hand on the strings, it not only exercises the flexibility of the fingers, but also improves the coordination of the body, improves memory, and adds fun to life. At the same time, it is pleasing to the body and mind.

At the beginning of the activity, the teacher first taught everyone the sitting posture of pulling the erhu: the legs are shoulder-width apart, and the feet are flat on the ground. Head up, hold your chest out, sit upright, and hold the erhu as required.

Next, the teacher explained in detail the basic structure of the erhu, the classification of musical instruments, and the essentials of performance, and performed live performances.

This erhu public interest class activity provides a life platform for middle-aged and elderly friends who like music and study in the community to improve themselves and show their own style. It enriches the spiritual and cultural life of the elderly.
