    I'm sorry all of that happened in the video. The music is beautiful.
    I also like unusual instruments too.

    Very nicely done, Gina. Thanks for sharing this with your forum community.

    I think it might be of interest to know about the instrument you were playing, so could you explain a bit about it?

    The instrument i played is a traditional Chinese music instrument called Er Hu, i don't know the English name for this instrument.

    I composed that song as a little contribution to our world, there's so many disasters and chaos and war in this world, I named this song "The Fellowship". With this song I'd like to invite all people to join hand in hand to overcome the disasters, so we'll have a better place to live on

    Hi Gina,
    Thanks for the instrument name. I researched that and found this wikipedia article on this stringed instrument. Very interesting to note the construction of the resonator box.

    Such beautiful music from just two strings none the less, and you are playing it standing, as well.

    What a wonderful tribute for that song ... we need more fellowship in the world today ... and your composition is a great way to illustrate that need.

    Just gorgeous, Gina. What a lovely tone your Er Hu (and you, of course!) has.
