Features: This book is divided into four parts, progressing from simple to complex, systematically integrating various techniques and skills of the pipa. It serves as a comprehensive practice collection for the pipa, addressing the shortcomings of "Learning the Pipa with Me" and is hoped to be well-received by the broader pipa community. During the selection process, emphasis was placed on the word "practical." Some pipa techniques that can be learned from the book or explained by a teacher were omitted, focusing primarily on commonly used fingerings. In terms of technical training, exercises were chosen to improve finger agility, shifting, string crossing, and rapid playing. Several complete pieces were selected to evaluate the effectiveness and level of your finger agility, shifting, and rapid playing exercises.
