hi.....,im 1 of the guzheng teacher from ss2 keejan
nice to meet all the guzheng lovers here:-)

welcome.... so u teaches @ Alan's center.... mayb u r the 1st teacher joining us here.... other than faceless the part time tutor teaching while attending his class... LOL

hopes u contributes along the line for fellow forumers here ..... i'm not a guzheng player... but a passion lover towards instruments.

ya...i teach at alan's place and given some private lessons oso...

Haha actually i think im too late cos now only found this nice forum and meet up all the guzheng lovers here...urs info is more updated than mine...hehe.

Anyway...i will try my best to sharing all my guzheng knowledge with u guys here ya...

........... good on u cheers too

Subang,
I know you are not at Kampung because you said so when trying to pass me the korean number. I know you will come around soon. I was wondering where you got the smiley for St James Gate. I though lyn is smart enought to put it there for us.

Avatar look like mei mei? At the MPO concert mei mei do not wear glasses, wor.

Mei mei moodiness could be from pressure. This is exam year for her and if the pieces starts to get difficult then leave it aside. It is the usual thing. When we had work weighing our mind it is the same thing. The music can wait. Since I started playing with expression, it would be hard to play when the mood is not right. I think the Xian trip is even putting more pressure. Here a paa expect good grades fom school. He dont want us to slack on the music, so he throw this big incentive "Xian Trip and Scarlett Bird Purchase". Pressure lah, a paa! Engineering rule lah, "apply too much pressure somewhere will break". Hey maybe jie jie also stop for the same reason. Time to communicate and salvage it. As to the trips, tell them it will be on regardless of performance unless the dont want it.

Devilyy,
Hi and welcome. Everytime a guzheng lover found this forum, our freind list had just expanded. Nice to have you. Hey, I am not tutoring. I am just comparing notes and sharing knowledge. If that was the case, Cassie tutored me to play with both hands.

Faceless.. i did not tutor u la.. i just merely give some suggestion..

seems fun as more and more ppl coming to this thread! Keep it up! Don't let the flame die!

HAHAH Cassie, I was refering to Subang saying I was tutoring which I consider sharing my thoughts. Come to think of it, Empire also had a share in tutoring. When I stumblled into this thread, I was reading the thead over a period of 3 weeks. It is not that I read slowly but my availibility. I can remember Empire keep saying Play With Feeling, Play With Feeling. This I do but only off and on. Seeing this statement from Empire really drilled it into my head. When I checked his website, I discovered that he is a professional. I keep telling myself. The pros play with feel and I must make that my habbit too.

it's great to know that we all share our thoughts and knowledge in this instrument..

faceless, you thought me many things about expression and style as well.. and explaining things to you make me thinks about it more deeper and clearer... i should thank you

Cassie,
Play and listen is a good tip. Your hands may be spastically slow or fast (or no obidient) but your ears will tell you where and how you went wrong. When the brains detect that often enough it will know how to direct the hand. That was my practically experience with that tip. I wonder who thought me that. I should thank that person too.

希望 sounds good. I manage to pass page 2. It will take a while to master all 3 parts. Listenin is important too When I accomplish that, we can play it together. How did your fare with song 49?

I purchase another guzheng book this Sunday. A fellow class mate invite me to join her book quest after class. It has a simpler version of 战台风。Want to take a glimpse of it (it has 9 pages) or already too much songs to learn?

faceless: i dun mind more songs.. if i hav no time, it can wait.. but i would love to hav it 1st.. haha.. *greedy....* ^^

We all something to offer others...be it big or small. English speaking GuZeng players are a rare breed, if you notice. Not to say Guzeng players dont speak English but that they generally speak Mandarin and Chinese dialects a LOT than us.

Cassie,
I will scan it and post. it will likely be tomorrow.

Empire,
You are great, man. As the only professional among us here, you are trying to be humble. You have a point. There are not many banana interested in this instrument. It is indeed nice to know that we had done out bit to help english reader for this instrument.
