Have you heard of guzheng, one of Chinese string musical instruments. Please correct , thank you Speaking of the musical instruments, I would like to talk about guzheng which is one of Chinese traditional instruments. I had learned for one and half a year when I was in high school, but due to the pressing study pressure, I gave it up and still felt regret not to continue learning. As a string musical instrument, this instrument looks like a big box with strings, and it can be divided into two parts, only the right of which is used for playing and the left part is used for tuning. Similarly, it can be played standing or sitting because it might be so large that children can’t reach strings when they sit. And due to its large size, it’s hard to take wherever I go unlike the violin. In my childhood I spent a lot of time with it. Because I found this musical instrument very interesting and striking. Chinese traditional music is classic and it gave me a feeling of freedom. The music yield from this instrument is very charming and produces a very soothing sound. This instrument can produce different sounds of various scales depending on how it is tuned and played. The people who play the instruments are mostly elegant women and children. It is quite popular among kids now since parents think it’s a way to cultivate their kids’ temperament. I always have a fascination about this device from my childhood. I think it couldn’t be better if I get time to continue learning guzheng.
