When holding the erhu, the palm of the left palm is close to the piano bar, the fingers are "lying" and the strings are pressed down, and the thumb is bent down to hook the piano bar.

Excessive bending of the finger joints, touching the strings with the tips of the fingers (even with the fingernails).

Reflexion of the finger joints, especially the first joints of the middle, ring, and little fingers.

The fingers (especially the ring and little fingers) do not press the string from the front of the string (from the string to the stem), but from the outside of the string (from the string to the body), so that only the outer string is pressed, the inner string is pressed. However, it is in the state of virtual pressing, and the wolf sound often appears because of this.

When a finger is pressed on the string, the fingers below it are curled in the palm, and the fingers are always "hanging" above the sound position and cannot be relaxed when playing.

As an indispensable member of Chinese folk music, Erhu is deeply loved by musicians for its unique timbre and expressive force. However, because its structural materials are mainly natural materials such as wood and python skin, it is more sensitive to environmental changes, especially in the winter when the temperature drops sharply and the air is dry.
