It' is a little difficult for me to play. But I play many fretless stringed instruments and this helps me. What's difficult for me is to learn any particular piece of Chinese Erhu music. That's because I'm a "Westerner" as you say. I was not brought up listening to Chinese music. But, since Chinese music is so clear and beautiful, this really helps me to love it, and hopefully to learn how to play it.
Timelessness, old wagon wheels traveling down an even older dirt road. Running water in a shaded brook, with dew on the grass and leaves. Somewhere, perhaps over the next hill is my destination. My love awaits me.
Thank you very much for your reply kobuscheung. Min Huifen plays erhu differently than the other erhu player's I have listened to on U-Tube. Just to let you know I have purchased my own erhu's and should revieve them this week. One erhu is an advanced instrument and the other is a beginner to intermediate instrument. I play many bowed instruments and plucked instruments-for my own personnal feelings and expression.
Oh, well I would not have asked except you had asked me where I was from and also you mentioned your Chinese class. But it's understandable that a person could be a bit touchy about personal info. For some reason I guess I did not think too much about it when I asked. Sorry. Anyway I played upon my Rabab again to night.
Chinese class? In College or High School? I'm from America. Born in NY and now living in the Green and Hilly State of Tennessee. Last night I played my Rebab, made in Pakistan.
百聽不厭心曠神愉，
江河水閔老師不二之選 由七十年代每個年代演繹都有唔同嘅感受我交喜歡佢晚期嘅作品 可能人生經歷感受
閔老師謝謝妳！妳的二胡很好听！我很熹歡妳的二胡旋律很好！每次听到《江河水》怎樣听來听去還是閔老師拉的二胡最感動我，感恩！
令人嘆為觀止的二胡演奏，
向閔惠芬女士致敬！
閔惠芬大師，已有數十年的人生閱歷與二胡演奏經驗。以她超強的功力，演奏〝江河水〞和〝二泉映月〞更能表現此兩曲所蘊含的光輝。
怀念闵惠芬老师的演出！千古绝唱！
拉得巳成化境，高!!!
I just want to say this brought tears to these old eyes....
Absolutely stunning... and deeply moving. What an instrument, and what a player!
二泉映月苍凉，江河水凄厉。
到目前為止，她還是最好的二胡演奏家，江河水相信沒人接得比她更好了。
I feel hunger and starvation, tears of agony and despair coming up my eyes everytime I have a listen to it.
在閔惠芬老師在世的時候我已經聼過全部有關於她的歌曲。
張彧然 佩服你
聽到我心情起伏不定，完了也不一時不能回復來，簡直震人心弦。大師級境界，聽之不厭。
把大師早年的演奏 和這一段接著看 真是嘆為觀止 以她用一生的功力詮釋這首曲子 前無古人無疑 我想也不會後有來者了
無懈可擊
很感動
Simply Stunning
Namaste
Thank you. I have started playing Erhu because of how beautifully she and a few others play on this instrument.
I wish the sound was a bit better! The perfomance was PERFECT and with so much feel!ing. Thank you so much for posting!
Breathtaking performance...evokes such deep feelings. Almost unbearable at times.
太感動！
閔老師何止是一代大師簡直是神
閔閔 閔惠芬的江河水是她獨有最喜歡的曲子。
Que espectáculo tan hermoso, no puedo evitar que un par de lagrimas se asomen de entre mis ojos,
i love this
閔老師，一路好走。
她是用整個生命的情感在拉江河水,
令人動容!

此曲只應天上有

I agree. The more I listen to this piece the more I see it from your view point.
Great!
My heart follow it up and down .

the most famous player in all of China : Ming Hui Fen. She played this fabulously well.
家國天下心不能忘，君父親恩不能忘。
This recording does not do justice to how well she plays. Her CD moves me to tears.

It would indeed depend one someone's mood and feelings . But it's usually played to express feelings of loss, hopelessness and parting.
So beautiful. ErHu is easy to learn, very very very hard to play. Try the higher notes and get back to me.
I can see what you mean. Perhaps I am in an optimistic mood with a touch of wonderment.
R.I.P. :(
she is the best. EVER
Thank you very much for your reply kobuscheung.

憂與憂其相接,謂之曰:憂從中來不可斷絕.恰似一江水向東流..

RIP , miss min.
Please tell me : What do feel while listening to this? What does it make you feel? What emotions does it stir up in you when you listen to this piece?
Well, that's one of her best pieces in my opinion.

有些拉二胡的行家說閔惠芬把「江河水」一曲拉絕了.意思說環顧這個圈子,無人能出其右.今聽此曲,信然! 但「二泉映月」一曲還未有拉絕,各形各色紛陳,却都騷不到其奧處.還敬請諸位努力...
旧社会人民苦，现在还是一样苦，所以这首曲子是永恒的。
My week-end school in the Chinese Community here. Chinese culture's pretty big where I live. Sorry a bit touchy about my personal info.
Erhu is the most voice like of bowed instruments.
perfect performance
This woman is a very good classical erhu musician. Can someone please tell me who she is?
Mai wen,feel like I am already at the other side
"Jian He Shui" is also a very famous Chinese poem about famine.
can someone tell which erhu to buy for a beginner..cause i looked it up and there is a lot of them...i would appreciate the help!
@PeterDad60
She is Min Huifen. You can google her.
这帮二胡高人真的是把这首曲子给演奏透了。。。
奇怪，點解我一路聽就一路想喊㗎呢？
Ah, so you had a real clue as to what this Erhu piece is about. Anyway I enjoy Erhu music very much.
RIP
So do I
Chinese class? In College or High School? I'm from America. Born in NY and now living in the Green and Hilly State of Tennessee.
Last night I played my Rebab, made in Pakistan.
拉很好听，如果是独奏会更好
Good luck with it! Could be very hard for a Westerner to learn.
Why ? If you have a Chinese soul
之後就誕生了兩位藝術家專業 于紅梅的紅梅隨想曲 邓建栋的姑蘇春曉 馬向華的天山風情 嚴潔敏的迷糊調 許可的莫愁女幻想曲 王國𣿅和紅梅的三門峽 陳軍的賽馬 王曉南的查爾達什 閆國威的秦腔 周維的葡萄熟了 楊雪的一步之遙和花兒為什麼這樣紅 高韶青的蒙風 許可的野峰飛舞和黃沙古道 高白的阿曼尼莎 宋飛的河南小曲 這一代的二胡聲音能否有新的轉變呢！
well, tis was in my Chinese class. I'm Fr-Chinese btw, where you from? Canadian or American or European?
ausgezeichnet!2013/12/13
Doesn't seem so hard to play as compared with the violin
伴奏 彷彿嗜多餘的 有點吵...
And sorry, before being adapted to an er hu piece, twas a poem about famine.
peace in heaven
