The basic skills of erhu must be meticulous, but you have reached a high level of performance after hard training. In order to express the emotion of the song, you must be rhythmic in the performance, so as to interpret the melody of the song incisively and vividly. Sometimes, in order to better express the feelings in the song, the body language also renders the atmosphere of the scene. This is the innovation of modern performers in the performance process. As long as it is not deliberately unrealistic exaggeration, the playing style of the combination of human and piano is Can interact with the audience, their every bow and every note is in line with the emotion and style of the music.

In the distribution of the length of the bow, the priority of the use of the bow and the emotion of the notes are just right. You think the long bow should be in front of the big dot in the piece, but the performer used a half bow and slowed down the speed so that the backside bow of the eighth note would not leave any trace. They pull the bow to the end of the bow, and then lift the bow up so that the beginning of the next sentence is a heavy attack, and the bow must be raised to hit the strings when it falls quickly to produce a strong strong attack, which is a need in the playing style of the music. Doing so to express emotional needs is not a bad habit.

There are only people who can't play the erhu, and there are no people who can't appreciate it. When some people play, the stiff hands movement, the sitting posture, the rigidity that is not in harmony with the music, let people know at a glance what level he is. The main thing is that the standard basic skills are fine, but sometimes there is an unnecessary bow lift, which is a bad problem of non-standard, such as this kind of bow that is not stable and does not stick to the strings, and the sounds played by floating around are all false. not full. Such bowing used in tunes cannot express the emotion of the music very well!

The correct method is to pinch the tail of the bow with the thumb and index finger of the right hand when practicing the bow, just like holding a pen, with the middle finger and ring finger hooking the inside of the bow hair. The movement of the bow should be stable, the bow should be drawn first and then pushed, and the wrist should be flexible, that is to say, the wrist should move to the right when pulling the bow, and then drive the bow. When pushing the bow, the big arm transmits the force to the wrist first and then drives the bow to run. When pulling the inner string, the finger ends of the middle finger and the ring finger are parallel to the bow hair, and the tip of the thumb is against the bow shaft.

When pulling the outer string, use the middle finger and ring finger to push the bow shaft. Whether pushing or pulling the bow, the finger surface of the right thumb should cover the bow shaft, which not only ensures the smooth operation of the bow shaft, but also applies slight pressure to the bow to achieve the strength of the string and the fullness of the sound. During the bow movement, the wrist must be flexible and not stiff. When drawing the bow, the hand first moves actively, driving the forearm, and then driving the big arm to move. When pushing the bow, the forearm is retracted first, and the forearm is the hand last.

In the process of moving the bow and stringing, the weight should be relaxed and steady. When practicing, be sure to draw the full bow, and pay attention to the tip, middle and root of the bow, especially the tip of the bow. Learn to control strength. In the awareness of bowing, there must be an awareness of distributing the weight and strength of bowing in two different directions, one is the direction of cutting the string, and the other is the direction of bowing left and right.

When practicing slow longbow, the force and weight required to move the bow left and right are very small, and the main weight and force should be used on the string. Learn the longbow practice first, don't worry, pay attention to the strength of the bow hair sticking to the string. The bow should be kept flat, straight and at an even speed. Beginners must develop a good habit.

Anyone who studies Erhu knows that rosin is an essential auxiliary material for playing erhu. In modern erhu, rosin is applied to the bow to increase the friction of the bow hair, increase the friction on the strings, so that the erhu makes a normal sound, basically, if the rosin is not properly applied, the friction of the erhu bow on the strings is usually slippery and difficult to make a sound, so it can be said that the auxiliary material of rosin is crucial for the erhu.
