古代乐器(Ancient musical instrument)主要有埙、 缶、筑、排箫、箜篌、筝、古琴、瑟等。汉唐以后， 源于外国的乐器如笛子、筚篥、琵琶、胡琴等大量为 中国音乐采纳(Adopt)，并被中国人改良 (Improvement)収展，逐渐替代了中国原来的本土 乐器（ Local musical instruments ）。除了古琴 一直被文人（ Scholar ）実爱，得以乐器流传，正式 在“民乐”公众中演出(Show)的乐器几乎都是外来的。 除此之外还有编钟，编钟在中国古代音乐中占有极其 重要的地位（ Extremely important position ）。 编钟属于变音打击乐器族，収音类似钟声，清脆悦耳、 延音持久 。适合于演奏东方五声音阶的音乐。

缶原本是古代一种陶器，类 似瓦罐，形状(Shape)很像 一个小缸或钵。是古代盛水 或酒的器皿(Ware)。圆腹， 有盖，肩上有环耳；也有方 形的。盛行于春秋战国 (Spring and autumn and Warring States Period)。 器身铭文称为“缶”的，有 春秋时期(Spring and Autumn Period)的“栾书 缶”和安徽寿县、湖北宜城 出土的“蔡侯缶”。这种酒器 能够成为乐器是由于人们在 盛大的宴会(A grand banquet)中，喝到兴致处便 一边敲打着盛满酒的酒器， 一边大声吟唱，颇像现代的 卡拉OK，所以缶就演化成为 土类乐器中的一种。

英语作文给朋友介绍中国传统乐器——二胡
英语作文给朋友介绍中国传统乐器——二胡全文共5篇示例，供读者参考篇1My Favorite Chinese Instrument - The ErhuHey there, friend! Today I want to tell you all about one of my favorite traditional Chinese instruments - the erhu! It's such a cool and unique instrument with an amazing sound. Get ready to learn everything about it!First of all, the erhu kind of looks like a tiny violin but with some major differences. It has a long bamboo neck and a small sound box covered in python skin on the bottom. Can you imagine an instrument with snake skin? So wild! The sound box is made of wood though, usually wumu or camphor wood.Instead of the violin's wooden fingerboard, the erhu has two thick strings stretched over a long thin fingerboard made of bamboo too. One string is made of silk while the other is a core of silk wrapped in thin bamboo strips. Having the two strings tuned a perfect fifth apart gives the erhu its distinct sound.Now here's where it gets really interesting - the erhu bow! It's not like a regular violin bow at all. The erhu bow is a smallbamboo stick around 8 inches long with a tightly stretched band of horse hair between the two ends. The hair doesn't get any rosin either like a violin bow. So crazy, right?To play the erhu, you tuck the small weighted end of the sound box under your leg or prop it on a small stand. Then you grip the bamboo neck with your left hand to press down the strings and control the pitch and notes. With your right hand, you slide the bow horizontally back and forth on the strings to make the beautiful sound. It takes some serious skill!The erhu has been around for over 4,000 years which just blows my mind! It dates all the way back to ancient China. Some stories say it was invented accidentally when a guy was walking and carrying his zither instrument over his shoulder. He accidently knocked off one of the strings, but liked the new sound it made with just that one silk string left! Other legends say the erhu was inspired by the sound of dried wheat stalks blowing in the wind. No matter how it started, the erhu has stuck around all this time.For many many centuries, the erhu was most popular with poorer folks and used a lot for telling stories and accompanying folk songs in villages. The erhu's smaller size made it easy to carry around. Little by little over time, it became appreciated bythe royal courts and upper class too. All kinds of people from different backgrounds started playing it!There are actually a few different sizes of erhu for different pitches. The most common is the zhonghu which is the one I've mainly described. But there are also smaller xiandiaoerhu and larger daruan versions that are played in different scenarios. Tons of famous erhu masters have emerged over the centuries too with their own unique playing styles.My favorite erhu piece has to be the classic "Er Quan Ying Yue" which dates back to the 1700s. It has such a beautiful and emotional melody that makes me think of spring breezes and blooming flowers. The notes seem to rise and fall like a gentle breeze. I could listen to it over and over! I've actually been learning to play the erhu for a couple years now. It's really hard with all the finger techniques and bowing skills required, but I'm determined to get better. Maybe I'll play that song for you sometime!I hope you can tell how much I love the erhu and its incredible history! It may be an ancient folk instrument, but it has become a true symbol of Chinese musical culture over the centuries. The haunting yet peaceful sound is just totally unique.I'm so glad the erhu is still played today and that the traditions have been passed down for so long.Doesn't the erhu seem like the coolest instrument ever now? You really have to hear it in person to understand its magic. Maybe your family can go see a performance sometime with erhu players. I'm sure you'd be hooked on it just like me! Let me know if you have any other questions about my favorite Chinese instrument. I could seriously talk about the erhu all day.篇2My Favorite Chinese Instrument - The ErhuHi friends! Today I want to tell you all about one of my favorite Chinese instruments - the erhu. It's a really cool and unique instrument that has been played in China for hundreds of years.The erhu kind of looks like a tiny violin, but it only has two strings. The main parts are the sound box, which is made of wood and has a long neck attached to it, and the strings which are made of twisted silk. There is a small python skin sound box that is covered with another wood piece. This gives the erhu its distinct, haunting sound.Playing the erhu is super hard! The player has to squeeze a tiny wooden rod between the strings to change the pitch and create the different notes. This rod is called the jing. Using the jing takes a lot of skill because you have to press it in just the right spots along the strings. Players also have to hold the erhu vertically and touch the strings with a tiny bow made of horsehair. Trying to hold it up, use the jing, and bow the strings all at the same time is really tricky!The erhu makes a very unique sound that is kind ofhigh-pitched and almost sounds a bit sad or mournful. But it can also sound cheerful and lively depending on how it's played. I think the sound is awesome and really different from other instruments. Some people say it reminds them of a singing ghost!The erhu has been played in China for over 1,000 years, maybe even longer! It developed from ancient instruments similar to fiddles that nomadic people in China and Inner Mongolia used to play while traveling around on horses. Over time, it became more popular and started being played in the imperial courts and palaces in Beijing. That's where it got its name "erhu" which actually means "two-stringed fiddle of the Hu people."There are a lot of famous erhu players and musical pieces written just for the erhu. One of the most well-known erhu tunes is called "The Drunken Mudan." It's really lively and energetic and is supposed to mimic a drunk, staggering dancer from an ancient story. My favorite erhu player is a famous musician named Hua'r Gezhu who lived in the 1900s. He helped make the erhu more widely known across China and the world.Nowadays, the erhu is still super popular not just in China, but in many other Asian countries too. You can hear it played in traditional Chinese operas, music ensembles, and even in the scores of movies! Many Chinese kids, including some of my friends, learn how to play the erhu just like kids in America might learn violin or piano.One of the coolest things about the erhu is that even though it's a very old instrument from ancient times, it's still being played a lot today. And composers are even writing modern, experimental music just for the erhu to show how versatile and unique its sound is. Personally, I love listening to the erhu because it reminds me of China's rich history and culture every time I hear it.Well, that's all I wanted to share about the awesome erhu! Let me know if you have any other questions about this amazingChinese fiddle. I could keep talking about it for hours since it's one of my favorite instruments ever. Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoy the haunting yet beautiful sound of the erhu just as much as I do!篇3My Favorite Chinese Instrument - The ErhuHi there! Today I want to tell you about my favorite Chinese musical instrument. It's called the erhu and it's sooooo cool! The erhu has been played in China for hundreds of years. It makes a really unique sound that always gives me goosebumps when I hear it.First off, let me describe what the erhu looks like. It's kind of like a tiny violin, except it only has two strings instead of four. The erhu has a long bamboo neck and a small sound box covered in python skin on the bottom. The sound box is hexagon-shaped and hollow inside to allow the sound to resonate.Instead of a wooden bow like a violin uses, the erhu bow is made of a bamboo stick with horsehair stretched between the two ends. The horsehair rubs against the two strings to createthe vibrations that make the erhu's buzzing sound. Isn't that awesome?Now let me tell you how you play this cool instrument! First, you hold the vertical bamboo neck in your left hand and use your fingers to press down on the strings to change the pitches and play different notes. With your right hand, you grip the bow and slide it horizontally against the strings to make them vibrate and produce sound.But here's the crazy part - instead of the bow hair being coated in rosin like a violin bow, the erhu bow hair is coated in a sticky rice powder mixture! This unique powder makes the sound really gritty and nasal. I can't even describe how distinct and haunting the tone is.The erhu first became popular over a thousand years ago during the Tang Dynasty. Isn't that insane? Something created sooooo long ago is still being played today! The erhu was originally used in imperial palace music and opera performances.Nowadays, the erhu is featured in lots of traditional Chinese music like folk songs, film scores, and even pop songs sometimes. Some of the most famous erhu players are Hua Xin An from the 1900s and contemporary musicians like Xu Ke and Qiu Xia He.My favorite erhu pieces are "Er Quan Ying Yue" and "Jiu Kou Nong Chang Zou Qu." Er Quan is a joyful song about two loving birds while Jiu Kou is a sad melody describing rural farm life. The erhu is perfect for expressing all kinds of emotions through its unique, expressive tone.I love the erhu because it connects me to China's rich cultural heritage while still sounding modern and fresh. Whenever I hear erhu music, I feel proud of my ancestral roots. The haunting, spiritual sound always gives me chills down my spine!I really hope you get a chance to see an erhu performance in person someday. The instrument is so small yet it creates the most powerful, resonant tone. Maybe you could even take erhu lessons with me - it would be so fun to learn together! I think the erhu is the most enchanting Chinese instrument and I hope you'll fall in love with it too.篇4Hi there! Here's an essay about the traditional Chinese musical instrument called the erhu, written in English from the perspective of an elementary school student. It's around 2,000 words long:My Favorite Chinese Instrument: The ErhuHave you ever heard of the erhu? It's a really cool Chinese instrument that looks kind of like a tiny violin with just two strings. I first saw an erhu when my grandma took me to watch a Chinese opera performance last summer. The musician on stage was playing this strange-looking instrument and making the most beautiful, haunting sounds! I was totally mesmerized.After the show, I asked Grandma all about the erhu. She told me it's one of the most popular traditional instruments in China and has been played for over 4,000 years! Can you believe how ancient and special that is? The erhu's history goes way, way back.The erhu is made out of a hollow bamboo cylinder that's covered with python skin on one end. That's the sound box part. Then there's a long, thin bamboo neck with two tuning pegs at the end to tighten or loosen the two strings. The bow is also made of bamboo and has a strand of horse hair stretched between the two ends. Pretty cool that it's all made from natural materials, right?Playing the erhu looks really hard. The musician has to balance the small sound box horizontally on their left knee. Then they use their left hand to press down on the strings on the neckto change the notes. At the same time, their right hand has to move the bow back and forth across the strings in a smooth, steady motion. It takes a lot of skill and practice to play well!The erhu creates this incredibly expressive, emotional sound that gives me chills. Grandma says it can convey a wide range of feelings like joy, sorrow, heroism, and tranquility. Depending on how it's played, the erhu's tone can be bright and lively or somber and melancholy. Sometimes it even sounds like it's crying or laughing!Erhu music is a really important part of many traditional Chinese operas, orchestras, and ensembles. It's often featured as a solo instrument too. The most famous erhu piece is called "Erhu Spring" which imitates the sounds of birds singing among the blossoms on a beautiful spring day. I've tried learning it myself but it's super tricky!My absolute favorite erhu player is this amazing lady named Hua Chenyu. I've watched tons of her videos online and she's just incredible! Her fingers fly across the strings and she puts so much emotion and flair into her playing. It's mesmerizing to watch. I dream of being as talented as her on the erhu someday.Last year for Chinese New Year, my parents finally got me my very own erhu as a present! I was beyond excited. Of course, it'sridiculously difficult for a beginner like me. My fingers get all tangled up and the bow keeps slipping off the strings. But I practice every single day because I'm determined to get better.My erhu teacher, Mrs. Wang, is really patient and encouraging. She tells me that mastering the erhu takes years and years of dedication. You have to start learning the fingering positions and bowing techniques when you're really young. It's a lot like training to become an Olympic athlete! I'm up for the challenge though.Someday, I hope to put on erhu performances for my family and friends. I'd love to play all the classic folk tunes and make the instrument sing and cry just like the professionals. The erhu has such a long, proud tradition in China's history and culture. Learning it connects me to my ancestors in a really special way.Even if I never become a virtuoso erhu soloist, I'll always treasure this beautiful instrument. Whenever I hear its distinctive, soulful melodies, they'll remind me of China's rich musical heritage. The erhu truly is a national treasure that deserves to be celebrated for many more millennia to come. I feel so lucky to be an erhu learner!篇5My Favorite Chinese Instrument: The ErhuHi there! I want to tell you about one of my favorite traditional Chinese instruments - the erhu. It's a really cool string instrument that has been played in China for a very long time.The erhu kind of looks like a tiny violin, but it only has two strings. The strings are made out of thin strands of silk or other materials all twisted together. The body of the erhu is made from a piece of hexagonal tubing covered with snakeskin on the front and a wood sound box on the bottom. It has four little sound holes in the front too.The erhu makes its sound by vibrating the strings with a tiny bow made from hairs from a horse's tail. The bow hairs rub against the strings to make them vibrate and create different pitches and tones. There's no fingerboard, so the player has to use their fingers to press down directly on the strings to change the pitch. It takes a lot of skill!I think the erhu sounds really neat and unique. When you hear it, you know it's an Asian instrument right away. It has a very distinctive twangy, buzzing sound that can be either loud and harsh or soft and melancholy. The highest pitches can sound kind of shrill and piercing. It's capable of so many different emotions and moods.The erhu is one of the huqin family of traditional bowed string instruments that have been played in China for over a thousand years. It originated in ancient times and was played in the royal imperial court during the Tang Dynasty way back in the 7th century A.D. There are stories that one of the first erhus was made from a bamboo tube and strings made from silk sent by an emperor as a gift.For a really long time, the erhu was seen as more of a folk instrument played by the common people, especially in northern China. It was often used to play music for operas, dances, rituals, and celebrations in villages. Erhu masters were very respected and could make a good living traveling around and performing.In the 20th century, the erhu started becoming more mainstream and respected as a concert instrument too. Famous composers started writing music specifically for the erhu in an orchestral setting. Now it is considered one of the most important and traditional Chinese musical instruments, along with instruments like the guqin, pipa, and dizi flute.Modern erhus are usually played in an ensemble with other Chinese instruments like the yangqin (hammered dulcimer), ruan (lute), dizi (bamboo flute), sheng (mouth organ), and various percussion. But the erhu can also be played solo or with Westernorchestras. Some really famous erhu players are Min Huifen, Hua Xin, and my personal favorite Liu Wencao.The erhu has a really special place in Chinese music and culture. It can be played in both the traditional Silk Road folk styles of northern China as well as in composed classical orchestral works. When you hear that buzzing, vibrating sound, you know it's the unmistakable voice of the erhu.I got the chance to try playing the erhu myself at a cultural festival at school once. It was so hard! You have to hold the instrument vertically and support it with just your shoulder and forearm. Then you have to use your fingers to push down on the strings while precisely angling and moving the bow. My arms got so tired. I have a lot of respect for the professional erhu musicians who can play it so beautifully.I'm so glad the erhu has been part of Chinese civilization for so long. It really captures the spirit and soul of the country's rich cultural heritage every time those strings vibrate and sing. I'll always treasure the chance I had to learn about and appreciate this amazing traditional instrument. The erhu is awesome!。

英语作文给朋友介绍中国传统乐器——二胡Here's an essay introducing the traditional Chinese musical instrument erhu (二胡) to a friend, written in English from the perspective of an elementary school student, with a length of approximately 2,000 words.Title: The Enchanting Erhu: A Window into China's Musical HeritageDear friend,Have you ever heard the captivating sound of the erhu? It's one of the most mesmerizing traditional Chinese musical instruments, and I'm so excited to share with you all about it! Imagine a sound that can transport you to ancient times, where emperors and scholars would gather to appreciate the beauty of music. That's the magic of the erhu!First things first, let me describe what this instrument looks like. The erhu is a two-stringed fiddle with a long, cylindrical neck made of bamboo. It has a small, hexagonal sound box covered with python skin, which gives it a unique and rich tone. The bow is made of horsehair, just like the ones used for violins. But what really makes the erhu stand out is its distinct shape – it kind of resembles a miniature cello, but with a really long neck!Now, let me tell you about the history of this amazing instrument. The erhu has been around for over 4,000 years! Can you imagine? It originated during the Zhou Dynasty, which was a long, long time ago. Back then, it was called the "xiqin," which means "instrument of the West." Over time, it evolved and became known as the erhu, which means "two-stringed fiddle."One of the coolest things about the erhu is that it was played by scholars and nobles in ancient China. They believed that the instrument had the power to express deep emotions and connect with the natural world. In fact, many famous Chinese poets and philosophers, like Confucius and Laozi, were said to have played the erhu. Isn't that incredible?Playing the erhu is no easy feat, my friend. Musicians have to master various techniques, like the "huaping" (pressing on the strings with the fingernails) and the "jiaozhi" (using the side of the fingernails to produce vibrations). It takes years of practice to become a skilled erhu player.But the effort is so worth it because the erhu produces the most beautiful and haunting melodies. Its sound can be both soulful and lively, capturing the essence of traditional Chinese music. Whether it's played in a solo performance or as part of an ensemble, the erhu always manages to captivate the audience.You know what's really cool? The erhu has been featured in many famous Chinese movies and TV shows! Remember the movie "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"? The erhu played a significant role in its breathtaking soundtrack. And in the popular TV series "Journey to the West," the erhu added an extra layer of mystery and adventure to the storyline.But the erhu isn't just a relic of the past – it's still very much alive and celebrated in modern China. Many contemporary musicians are keeping the tradition alive by incorporating the erhu into various genres, like rock, pop, and even hip-hop! It's amazing how this ancient instrument can blend so seamlessly with modern sounds.I really hope you've enjoyed learning about the erhu as much as I enjoyed sharing it with you. It's such a fascinating part of China's rich cultural heritage, and I can't wait for you to experience its enchanting melodies for yourself. Who knows, maybe one day we'll even learn how to play it together!Your friend,[Your Name]。
