        Learning Qin with Me

        by Liu Zhenyu, Deng Hong

        As a gem of Chinese culture, qin (7-stringed zither) became a representative of human oral and intangible heritage at the UNESCO World Heritage Conference in 2003. Its popularization rests on the popularization of introductory textbooks. Qin can help the coordination of hand and mind, activate the human brain and enhance memory. It can also sharpen people’s hearing and bring joys to people. The invention of this musical instrument has made the Chinese people cleverer and the ancient Chinese civilization ahead of other world civilizations, leaving behind precious treasures. Learning Qin with Me is a systematic introductory textbook. It includes an introduction of qin, its cultural continuity and change, its basic knowledge, and its basic fingering, scales, works and songs accompanied by it. The textbook also contains an introduction of the traditional Chinese gongchi musical notation. The qin works and songs appear in numbered musical notation, staff, and qin tablature. As it is very difficult to typeset qin tablature, this is the only qin introductory textbook with qin tablature at present. The book is also attached with a demonstrative CD.
