Thank you so much for sharing, the Peking Opera was amazing. The instrumental parts not so much.. too much prerecorded background filler.
The Opera though..

These big, holiday productions are getting like that -- noticed this a couple of years ago. Although CCTV-11 is home to all the various Chinese operas, it's essentially an arts & entertainment channel and non-opera music seems to be losing its "purity" (for lack of a better word). Oh well.................

I saw that they had 3 Qianjin tied on their erhu. I wonder is there a need to have 3?

Back in my erhu days, I saw people with tuners made from cotton string which wrapped around the erhu neck and for each string (instead of the metal violin tuners that most of us use) -- this would give the appearance of having 3 qianjins. The good thing about doing the cotton string approach is that the strings don't gt beat up by the metallic tuners.
