    Thank you so much for this video! I'm a flutist and vocalist but I've always wanted to learn a string instrument. I had planned to start with the violin (and probably will learn it someday) but after the Tears of the Kingdom soundtrack came our, the Erhu completely captured my heart. It's such a hauntingly beautiful instrument. Being that I'm on the other side of the world from most makers, it was really overwhelming trying to figure out the difference between styles and materials, so this was so helpful!

    I follow your recommendation to replace my original strings with Blue cover- Fang Fang strings (Outer String = 0.25mm, Inner String = 0.42mm). Now the quality of high and low pitches of my Erhu improve. If I replace again those strings with thicker strings such as Red cover- Fang Fang (Outer String = 0.26mm, Inner String = 0.44mm), will it increase the quality of Erhu pitch better?🙏🙏🙏

    Thank you for this video. I’m a professional violinist from South Africa and is very interested in Chinese culture. I would LOVE to purchase my own erhu❤😊 (Chinese violin😉) I absolutely love the sound! Every time I hear the erhu play in movies I wish I had my own. I’m just clueless on where to start and what kind of erhu to purchase

    • @tomjjackson21
      @tomjjackson21 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Lol, does this have anything to do with the new population of Chinese in South Africa, or have you always found the culture interesting?
      I only ask because I grew up feeling the same way. By complete coincidence; I promise I didn't actively work towards this, I moved to Tokyo for work, and ended up marrying a Chinese woman. Years later, numerous time in China, I learned the "culture" I had thought was so interesting, was a facade, by the Western glamorization. It's nothing like I thought and was sadly disappointed. Not trying to kill your vibe, just do some research before you jump down the China culture rabbit hole; research high context culture.

    What about Erhu with modern geared brass tuners? How it affects sound?
    Or old friction wooden tuners and micro adjustment is better?
    What is your opinion.

    • @EightTonesMusic
      @EightTonesMusic  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Old friction wooden pegs with fine tuners are better.
      1. Geared brass tuning pegs have reliability issues. Imagine a tuning peg loosening itself on stage or imagine you the gears get stuck just before a performance.
      2. Brass geared head makes the top of the Erhu heavy. Performing with it will affect your balance.
      3. It is difficult to oil and maintain regularly.
      Brass geared head is not a new tech. It was an ‘innovation’ in the 80s but phased out due to the above issues. Friction tuning pegs are the best. If the violin can use friction tuning pegs till today, the Erhu can use it too. Only high tension string instruments like the double bass will require the geared brass tuning pegs.
