Main Article Content
Abstract
Song Guosheng is a famous Erhu theorist, educator, performer, and composer. Born in Leting, Hebei Province, in November 1938, he has a great talent for music. In Hebei Province, home to ancient traditional operas, he has been deeply influenced by the Leting drum, Leting shadow play, opera, song-blowing, and anti-Japanese songs since childhood. Song Guosheng created a new technique of erhu by applying the form of the pipa's left hand to the erhu bow's right hand: the round bow, a special technique of the continuous and alternating use of multi-tone and single-tone striking and jumping bows. This article presents the innovation of Song Guosheng's Erhu performance and teaching theory.
