On Erhu Left Hand Dexterity Training

In recent years,with the continuous improvement of erhu performance techniques and the influx of a large number of Western works,erhu performers have faced difficulties.The emergence of some difficult and dazzling techniques has attracted the attention of many erhu scholars to basic skills.To perform these difficult works well,a solid foundation of basic skills is necessary,and left hand flexibility training has become a necessary training for every performer,It is something that every performer cannot ignore.This article will discuss in detail from four chapters.In the first chapter,the specific concepts of left hand flexibility training and finger structure from the perspective of human Kinematics are expounded;Chapter 2 discusses the importance of left hand flexibility training in erhu performance from two aspects: improving performance skills and enriching musical expression;Chapter 3 collects and organizes common problems in left hand flexibility training during erhu performance;Chapter 4 takes Wang Guotong’s "Live Finger Exercise" as an example to discuss training methods for improving left hand flexibility from four aspects: finger function,hand coordination,thinking,and auxiliary training.The emergence of a large number of modern erhu works and the increase in difficulty of the works require erhu performers to adapt to the development of erhu performance techniques to improve their performance level and attach importance to the training of basic skills.The author combines practice with literature to propose relevant thoughts on left hand flexibility training,hoping to provide theoretical solutions in the future practice process,further develop scientific research on left hand flexibility training,and help performers improve their musical expression and performance level.
