Aleph Posted May 25, 2008 Randall here, just moved out to Austin a bit ago from Albuquerque. Been doing the studying thing for a while now, around these parts I've lurked for quite some time, never registered/posted. I try to keep things pretty simple.. I play my cello/erhu, ride/race some bicycles, spend time with family, and work. Nice to be here, don't feel shy to say hello. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What kind of studying thing ? Sounds like a good life, within this child there's a simplistic longing for simplicity. Hope your Cello/erhu Has a voice sweet as the wind!!! and as passionate!  Peace!  Shon  How did u learn to play Erhu? self taught ? just by playing with it?  I play flute but mostly just make noise it's not the flutes falt!   nice to meet you Randall!

Aleph Posted May 27, 2008 Well, I've been studying taoism for several years, just whatever I can get my hands on, really, though I can't speak/read chinese (next goal). I learned how to play Erhu from my classical cello training, just took what I knew of cello/violin and moved it over to Erhu.. Had to learn a few things differently, but it all works out. Doesn't sound half bad, you know? Â Nice to be a bum. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
