Beautiful5
The Er-Hu has a reputation for sounding awful...but you'd never know it listening to Yu Hong Mei. She produces such a beautiful tone, and is at times contemplative and medtitative, at other times quite emotionally stirring. Simple, elegant, this music is very pleasing.

Great mastery4
In this CD, Yu Hong-Mei's mastery of the instrument is evident. She sets different moods in her pieces. It is amazing the wide variety of music she can create with only 2 strings. The 2-string instrument is a classical Chinese music instrument and the sound it produces is similar to that of a violin but with a very distictive tone. If you are not used to it, you may not like it (this falls into the "cultivated taste" category.)

Excellent!5
I'm a fan of traditional Chinese instruments and this CD is worth buying! Hong-Mei is really amazing and passionate!
