Listen to This Haunting Chinese Erhu Player Under a Central Park Archway

Captured from afar by Staten Island Advance reported Bill Lyons, this Central Park busker plays the Chinese erhu under an archway, providing tons of haunting reverb and resonance.

The erhu or Chinese fiddle is a two string bowed instrument that is tuned to the same pitch as the middle strings on a violin and is one of the most important instruments in Chinese music. Listen as the music echoes within an archway in Central Park.
