This is a kind of chinese traditional instrument. I played it for more than 20 years. quite good but still a amateur player. you may love it if you try it.

Unfortunately I can't play any instruments. I've seen that traditional Chinese instrument and I bet they were playing it in some traditional Chinese songs I hear sometimes on a radio station. I like string instruments - Chinese and Japanese instruments like this produce very pleasant sounds.

yeah.this is a kind of string instrument.its playing method is just the same as a violin.ER QUAN YING YUE(THE MOON REFLECTED IN THE TWIN PONDS)and SAI MA(HORSE RACING) are two ER HU solos everybody knows here.

Thank you for providing the titles of the two songs. I've browsed them on YouTube and listened them with great pleasure. Moon Reflected in the Second Ponds (as I found it on YouTube) is a very peaceful song, while Sai Ma is alert, exactly the pace a horse race has.
