The Erhu is a traditional 2-string violin dating back more than a thousand years, likely originating from Mongolia. The instrument has a small hollow snake or goat-skinned cylindrical resonating body and a long thin neck with no fingerboard. It is played upright in the performer's lap, with the bow passed between the strings. Bow contact on the strings is never broken, giving the erhu it's distinctly sinuous playing style.Weighing in at over 6 GB of content, this collection covers 8 different Erhu violins, ranging from bass to treble and in a variety of tunings. This one-of-a-kind library combines the authenticity of an emotive street musician with granular deep sampling fully controllable through our powerful custom user interface. For the creation of Street Erhu, we worked with veteran street performer Qi Xin Huang and local Erhu craftsman Kenneth Lam. Qi Xin’s playing is raw, emotive and authentic, evoking a traditional flavor not possible with a sterile and overly rigid performance. Each erhu in this library offers its own unique flavor, creating a palette of different sounds fit for any stylistic need. – Contents 1 Bass Erhu – 1,328 phrases 6 Mid Erhus – 2,543 phrases (combined) 1 Treble Erhu – 341 phrases City Street – 12 songs Subway Station – 40 songs This Street Erhu features 83 presets for Kontakt.
