Erhu, also known in the West as the "Chinese violin" is a two-stringed bowed musical instrument, used as a solo instrument as well as in small ensembles and large orchestras.

Pipa is a plucked Chinese string instrument. Sometimes called the Chinese lute, the instrument has a pear-shaped wooden body.

 

Guzheng is a Chinese plucked zither with a long history. A video below is performed by one of our students at KW Multicultural Festival.

Erhu,Pipa and Guzheng produce unique and beautiful sounds of music. This class teaches techniques to play them.
