Hi. I want to know how come pipa player like zao chong, shi juan, etc can have their finger so fast? I am learning the Dance of the Yi Tribe but when the rush parts come, I lost it because it's not as fast as I usualy play

It takes years of practise best started at a young age. Sutong, a forum member, is self taught but he has been playing classical and flamenco guitar for years.

Gao Hong has written an extensive Pipa Method book in English - the first of its kind. It will be published through Hal Leonard this June and is already available for pre-order though Amazon.com. It comes wit a DVD showing the playing techniques and many scores. It is suitable for Beginners through Intermediate levels and also has a very valuable section for composers. You can check her web site at www.chinesepipa.com.

Daidai, your post about the upcoming pipa method is welcome, but you have posted the same message nine times. This is excessive. For those of us who follow the posts on this forum, once is enough. It is not necessary or desirable to cross-post on every old thread that regards the pipa. Please leave one of these posts where you like, and delete the redundant eight.
Thanks.
David
