Chinese String Quartet
Arts Education Programme (AEP)

Let Stringanza, the longest existing Chinese String Quartet in Singapore, bring you through an in-depth exploration of the Erhu, commonly referred to as the Chinese violin, and its higher and lower pitched relatives, the Gaohu and Zhonghu, through the performance of a diverse genre of music accompanied by the Western Cello. Besides being able to appreciate the eclectic blend of music produced by the East-meets-West combination of instruments, participants would also be able to learn about the roles each instrument plays in a String Quartet setting, as well as an insight into why the Cello was used instead of its Chinese counterpart, the Gehu.
