It produces sad, mysterious, joyful or voicelike melodies. It belongs to the huqin family of Chinese instruments, together with the zhonghu, gaohu, banhu, jinghu, and sihu. The erhu dates back to the 13th century. A notable poser for the erhu was Liu Tianhua, a Chinese musician. He studied Western music, too. Many of his works for the instrument from the 1920s are still played frequently. I love to play the pipa 琵琶 . It is a traditional Chinese musical instrument. Sometimes it is called the Chinese lute. It has a pearshaped wooden body. It has been played for nearly two thousand years of history in China, and belongs to the plucked category of intruments (彈撥樂器 ). 14 Make a poster about your favourite music and musicians.
