I haven't seen anyone who was interested in Beijing Opera and learning how to play the jinghu. If you are, here's a link on YT that a master jinghu player put a number of lessons and there's a link where he has a blog where you can download the lesson content. I ended up using this material to learn jinghu as I had to stop going to my erhu teacher who was teaching me jinghu. The lessons are professionally produce (IMO). Video lessons: www.youtube.com/user/zongtilinLesson sheet music: blog.sina.com.cn/linzongtiHere's a YT of me playing jinghu with my teacher (to my right) playing the jing erhu with a couple of singers. This video was made about 10 yrs ago (when I had more hair!!) www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZfhNuPTzcD0Regards, paul...

Thx for the kind words, but I've seen another Westerner who could play as well as sing the lyrics in Chinese!!
You have any interest in playing a jinghu?Regards,
paul...

There was an occasional Beijing Opera that I supported in the past and I had to sit at the furthest row back, the sound was deafening. The UK Chinese Traditional music scene is very small and I don't think there are any jinghu players here, let alone teachers.
When I mentioned I had a gaohu to my present on-line erhu tutor (from Easons), all I got was "Oh".

Don't worry about finding a jinghu teacher. You already have experience with erhu, etc., so you can use that YT stuff that I mentioned earlier - that's what I did and I play way better than what you saw in my video (from ~10 yrs ago). Let me know if I can help you.
Regards,
paul...

Paul if you play way better than that 10 yr old YT video then perhaps you should upload more and become a YT sensation!
I'm struggling to fit dizi and erhu practise in and am booked for an erhu exam later this year. But who knows...
Thanks.
