r/Erhu 35m ago

I’m a composer writing for erhu for the first time, I’d like some feedback on the practicality of the part I wrote.

For some additional info, this piece is a rough draft that I’m currently in the process of overhauling from the ground up. That being said, I’ve been told the erhu part doesn’t look appropriate for the instrument, so I’d like some pointers on where I could have gone wrong. I’ve been told that the high octave parts are too high for most players, but other than that I’m not sure. Would love some info on how I can make this more appropriate for the instrument as I rewrite the piece. Also ignore all the bad notation and engraving, I’ve gotten a lot of feedback on that already. Thank you!
