Some of Bach's Violin Concertos, arranged for erhu --- BWV 1041 and BWV 1042(a小调协奏曲/E大调协奏曲)二胡版

I've scanned some more sheet music (terribly), of Bach's violin concerto in A minor and E major. I uploaded the scores for both and included a demonstration for the concerto in A minor by some epic dude.

These pieces are probably in the intermediate/low-advanced category. There's just a lot of shifting and 16th notes for both. This really exercises your fingers if you aren't used to this style.

For erhu, the concerto in A minor is more popular for erhu, and I haven't come across any recording of it being performed yet on the Internet. If I have time, I might upload my recording for educational purposes.

Violin Concerto in A Minor BWV 1041 a小调协奏曲 (Difficulty: ~7/10)

There are many vids on the Internet of 7-9 year olds being able to play this nicely on the erhu. If you can't do it, instead of feeling inferior, try thinking about what you can accomplish in those few years. *cringe*





K here's the vid demo

The erhu used in the performance is an electric erhu manufactured by Shanghai Dunhuang. I think the price of it is around...2000 USD, but cheaper models are around 500 USD. Just buy an Indian small leaf sandalwood erhu instead. Oof, I got sidetracked. Also, idk the dude's name.





Violin Concerto in E major BWV 1042 E大调协奏曲 (Difficulty: ~5.5/10)

Easier than BWV 1041, in my opinion
