This man was playing in the Temple Of Heaven in Beijing. He was playing a classic Chinese stringed instrument, which sounded unattractive to my western ears. I suspect it was a very modest glimpse of old China. Maybe he doesn't much appreciate Bach.

Its an Erhu,  a chinese kind of a violine. There are only two strings and the bow is between the strings and the neck.
It gives a very special tone. I like it.

Maybe you get the chance to listen to a pipa or a Guzheng. Its very special for 'western ears', maybe compared with butho dance.

 

btw, its a nice photo.
