13 Work in pairs．Describe the music and say what you think about it. If you can, bring some of your favourite music into class so everyone can listen to it. Discuss in English your feelings about your music.
I like the erhu (二胡) music. It is commonly known in the West as the 'Chinese violin'. It is a two-stringed bowed instrument. It produces sad, mysterious, joyful or voice-like melodies. It belongs to the huqin family of Chinese instruments, together with the zhonghu, gaohu, banhu, jinghu, and sihu.
The erhu dates back to the 13th century.
A notable composer for the erhu was Liu Tianhua, a Chinese musician. He studied Western music, too. Many of his works for the instrument from the 1920s are still played frequently.
I love to play the pipa 琵琶. It is a traditional Chinese musical instrument.
Sometimes it is called the Chinese lute. It has a pear-shaped wooden body. It has been played for nearly two thousand years of history in China, and belongs to the plucked category of intruments (弹拨乐器).
14 Make a poster about your favourite music and musicians.
