are who?


Yes, are who. Actually it's an "erhu" (二胡; pinyin: èrhú pronounced: are who)which is a two-stringed bowed musical instrument (also called a "southern fiddle") and sometimes known in the Western world as the "Chinese violin" or a "Chinese two-stringed fiddle".

Yesterday my little freshman student "Nora" came over to play it for me and teach me a little, whew, learning something new and very foreign is HARD! She played a classical erhu song and also her own version of "Numb" by Linkin Park.. pretty cool! I decided to share the musical love and play her a Chinese praise song that I'm learning... to make a long story short, I told her that these songs are played at fellowships sometimes and asked her if she wanted to come, she did! Today we went and she really enjoyed it and wants to go back and even visit a study they have during the week too! Pretty cool how the Father works and one thing leads to another... :)
