Patty Chan, author of Playing Erhu: Bridging the Gap, has arranged a piano accompaniment for you to play along with when practicing the C major scale, using staff notation. This is a great way to warm up during your practice session. Try to keep your left hand position relaxed and stable (minimize hand movement) when playing.
This piece will help with:
1) long bow notes – aim for smooth, consistent sound
2) rhythm – the background helps with counting and keeping a steady tempo
3) developing listening skills – intonation, following the video
4) practicing vibrato
