First, the origin time is different:
1. Erhu, with the development of Erhu culture since the 20th century, a large number of outstanding composers and performers have emerged. At the same time, due to the emergence of modernist works, more and more new technical techniques appear on erhu, which is no longer just a traditional single performance.
2. The playing of erhu has been pushed to a new era by playing less Qin and plucked instruments. Mr. Gao Shaoqing, a famous erhu master, improved and innovated the erhu, and created the shaoqin. Mr. Gao Shaoqing's masterpiece of Shaoqin is five Erhu caprices.
Second, the difference between performance types:
1. As a new folk music in the new era, Shaoqin has a wide range of playing types. It can not only play traditional erhu tracks, but also adapt to the performance of new modernist works, making up for the shortcomings of traditional erhu.
2. In combination, Shaoqin can be well combined with pop music, electroacoustic music, rock music and enthusiastic rumba, which makes the composition and performance of erhu more diversified, and also makes the erhu well combined with western music, which makes the performance and dubbing of erhu have a broader road.
Third, the difference between appearance and timbre.
1. On the barrel, Shaoqin has a structural change compared with Erhu. The opening of the barrel of Shaoqin is bent upward in the second half, which makes the sound upward, thus increasing the volume by one third. When playing in the concert hall, there is no need for speakers, and the range is broadened and the expressive force is richer.
2. In terms of material, the surface of the barrel of Shaoqin is made of special artificial leather, which is not only environmentally friendly, but also achieves the unity of high and low tones, and is more vocal and guttural than Erhu. Its piano shaft adopts modern high-precision gear shaft, which has high precision, no deviation, easy tuning or fine tuning.
Extended data:
Mr. Gao Shaoqing changed "Erhu" to "Shaoqin";
1. In terms of volume, Gao Shaoqing transformed the piano barrel into the second half of it bent upward, so that the original sound outlet was changed to sound upward, and the overtone rate of the erhu was also increased by one third, which increased the volume of the high-pitched erhu. The change of sound outlet makes the sound go up, reach the ceiling of the concert hall, and then reflect to the audience.
2. In the aspect of improving the traditional wood tuning axis of erhu, the wood tuning axis of ordinary erhu is changed into the tuning axis of guitar, and modern high-precision gear shaft is adopted, which is accurate in both large tuning and fine tuning.
3. Shaoqin adopts the mode of moving one thousand Jin, and the player can set the position of one thousand Jin according to the size of his hand and the change of tone, so all erhu tunes can be completed on one erhu. If one thousand Jin is moved to the top, the range will be widened.
