Listen Up! "E" is for Erhu
The erhu is a Chinese two-stringed fiddle, and as soon as you hear it, you'll recognize it as being from China, since it figures in many traditional Chinese melodies.The erhu has a long neck, with two tuning pegs, and a small body covered with python skin. Two strings are attached from the pegs to the base, and the bow is never separated from the strings. Listen:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dhic2cE57iM
