Today I spoke with the mum of a 5-year-old who just had a trial lesson with one of our male instructors. She asked if we could arrange another trial — this time with a female teacher who’s experienced with kids and can “play” with her daughter.

I introduced one of our early-twenties female instructors who’s great with young children and has 4–5 years of teaching experience. The mum was happy… until she started comparing with the male instructor:
✅ 10+ years’ teaching experience
✅ Students winning awards in national competitions
✅ 100% DSA success rate
❌ Less likely to joke with her daughter — his style is more direct, and the child would need to follow instructions closely.

She seemed conflicted.
I suggested that since her daughter is only 5, maybe the priority now is to cultivate her interest in music first. I told her to try lessons with the female teacher, then ask her daughter how she feels about both.

𝗧𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗮𝘄𝗮𝘆: Every child is different. Some thrive with structure and discipline; others blossom when they can play and explore.

What about you? If it were your child, would you choose the strict, results-driven teacher or the fun, kid-friendly one?

Most people come to us for instruments and lessons.
But sometimes, the real game-changer isn’t the instrument — it’s the accessory that makes playing, rehearsing, and travelling easier.

Take this foldable Zhongyin Pai Sheng (中音排笙) stand we specially sourced from China.
Before this, we used to custom-make stands in Malaysia — sturdy but bulky, non-adjustable, and impossible to fold. When the workshop closed, we thought we’d lost the option… until we found this.

This stand:

Adjustable height & length — fits players of different heights and even doubles as a keyboard stand.

Folds flat — making transportation to rehearsals and concerts easy.

Light enough to carry in one hand, yet stable for performance.

Rare enough that before we stocked it, some players had to improvise with student desks or even rolling carts(!).

No, it’s not flashy. But ask anyone who’s had to lug a Zhongyin Pai Sheng around — they’ll tell you this is a blessing.

At Eason Music, we’re here to make your music journey smoother — whether you’re buying an Erhu, learning Guzheng, or hunting down a rare accessory you didn’t think existed.

Shop Talk @ Eason #20: 𝗧𝘄𝗼 𝗣𝗮𝘁𝗵𝘀, 𝗢𝗻𝗲 𝗠𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗰 – 𝗖𝗵𝗼𝗼𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗜𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘁

Today we had two very different student encounters when it came to buying an Erhu (and Gaohu).

Encounter 1:
A Primary 4 boy was picked to play the Gaohu in his school’s Chinese orchestra. His mum came in wanting to buy one so he could practise at home.
He initially liked a Gaohu that, to my ears, was the nicest to play — warm and comfortable sounding. But Gaohus are usually meant to be bright and penetrating, so if he used this “too nice” one in the orchestra, it might be drowned out by the other Erhus and Zhonghus.
In the end, he chose something brighter and more piercing — so he could hold his own in the ensemble.

Encounter 2:
A grandfather came in to buy an Erhu for his grandson, also in a school orchestra. His budget was $150–$200, so I showed him a young rosewood Erhu by Liu Ji Feng. It played well and sounded decent. I suggested that if his grandson wanted to match the sound of the other Erhus in the orchestra, upgrading would be better.
Still, he decided to stick with the young rosewood Erhu.

One chose with the orchestra’s needs in mind.
The other chose purely on personal preference.

Nothing wrong with either choice.
What would you do if it were you?

𝗦𝗵𝗼𝗽 𝗧𝗮𝗹𝗸 @ 𝗘𝗮𝘀𝗼𝗻 #𝟭𝟵
This is a 60cm Flower Pot Drum (缸鼓) — named for its resemblance to a flowerpot.
It delivers a deep, thumping tone commonly used in Chinese festivals and concert settings. You can strike the center for a bold sound, tap the rim for a warm wooden tone, or roll your stick across the giant nails for a unique percussive effect.

Here’s what made this drum memorable:
It was ordered by a Western percussionist. We’re not exactly sure what it’s for — maybe a performance, maybe a recording — but that’s beside the point.

Because when it comes to music, it doesn’t matter whether the drum is Chinese or Western.
If it fits the music, it’s the right drum.

As the Chinese saying goes:
“It doesn’t matter if it’s a black cat or a white cat — if it catches mice, it’s a good cat.”

“The Yangqin Mystery String Job”

We’ve repaired all kinds of instruments — snapped Erhu headstocks, cracked Guzheng bases — but this Yangqin gave us a first.

It was brought in for tuning, but when our technician took a closer look, something didn’t sit right. One of the bottom frets had its string under the bridge instead of on it. That’s... not supposed to happen.

Turns out, the fret had cracked and was glued back — probably by someone unaware the string is meant to rest on top. A good effort, but the result was more confusing than helpful.

What started as a simple tuning job quickly turned into a full restoration plan — but we couldn’t help but chuckle at how it all unfolded.

Moral of the story?
If you're unsure, let a pro take a look. Especially when it comes to Yangqin. They're trickier than they look!

You know how opening blind boxes has been really popular lately?

We never really understood the hype — until our new **Yu Kai Ming Erhus** arrived. Even though *technically* we know what we ordered, the moment we open the carton, start assembling the parts, and hear that very first sound — it feels exactly like unboxing a surprise treasure.

Each Erhu is unique. Even two made from the same wood can sound different depending on the tension and texture of the snakeskin. And sometimes, when you least expect it, you hit the jackpot — the tone is rich, open, and just sings. That’s the thrill we live for.

It’s a little like magic. And we thought we’d share a little of that joy with you.

Shop Talk @ Eason #16: A Rare Gem in the Ruan Family – the Gaoyinruan

Every now and then, a customer walks through our doors with a request that reminds us just how vast and varied the world of Chinese music is.

Recently, we fulfilled a special order for a Gaoyinruan — a rare and lesser-seen member of the Ruan instrument family. 🎶

Crafted specially by our trusted maker, this petite instrument is best known for its role in small ensemble settings. Historically, it once stepped in as a substitute for the Liuqin, though its warmer and more muted tone eventually made it a niche choice.

But niche doesn’t mean lesser.

The Gaoyinruan is delightfully portable, capable of producing clear melodies while still allowing for effortless chord strumming. It might not shine as brightly as the Liuqin, but it has a quiet charm and versatility all its own.

A joy to own, and even more so to play — it’s the kind of instrument that grows on you with every pluck.

Shop Talk @ Eason #15: DSA Auditions – What We See Behind the Table
It’s DSA season again — Direct School Admission.
This is the time of year when Primary 6 or Secondary 4 students try to gain early admission into their preferred secondary schools or JCs using their talent in Chinese music.

The process involves submitting an application, and if shortlisted, the student attends a live audition to showcase their ability.

We were recently chatting with one of our instructors who sits on audition panels — and this year, he had to listen to over 30 students in a single day.

Among them, two stood out — not because they played brilliantly, but because their performances were far below the expected standard. One student played something completely unrecognizable from the intended piece. Another was on the low end of the autism spectrum and struggled heavily with intonation.

He told us that his heart sank when the latter offered to play a second piece…
But despite the circumstances, he let both students finish their pieces — with patience, kindness, and words of encouragement.

—

Takeaways:
- Most instructors can tell within the first few bars whether a student is ready.
But out of respect for these young performers, we’ll still listen till the end. We know how much courage it takes just to show up.

- If you’re planning to DSA via music — or helping your child prepare — do start early. One or two weeks of lessons won’t be enough to truly get audition-ready.

𝗦𝗵𝗼𝗽 𝗧𝗮𝗹𝗸 @ 𝗘𝗮𝘀𝗼𝗻 #𝟭𝟲 – 𝗔 𝗕𝗶𝗿𝘁𝗵𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗪𝗶𝘀𝗵 𝘁𝗼 𝗔𝗹𝗹 𝗘𝗿𝗵𝘂 𝗘𝗻𝘁𝗵𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗮𝘀𝘁𝘀

Today’s my birthday — and instead of receiving wishes, I’d like to send a few out to the global Erhu community.

Whether you’re just starting out or already deep into your Erhu journey, I hope you’re blessed with:
1. Good health and nimble fingers — so you can keep having fun on your Erhu for many years to come.
2. A good teacher — someone who’s serious about your progress, not just pushing you to buy your next Erhu.
3. A good Erhu — one that brings you joy, doesn’t fight back, and didn’t cost more than it should have.

We can’t help you with number one.
But for number two and three — we’re always here. If you need lessons or an Erhu that truly fits your level, look us up.

Thank you for being part of this music journey with us.

Shop Talk @ Eason #14: Deeply Moved by This Family’s Passion for Chinese Music

A family of five flew back to Singapore from the U.S., and the very first thing they did on their holiday?
They signed up together for Guzheng lessons! 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦

They’ve been attending three lessons a week, rain or shine. The mother brought her daughter and niece — the way they practice together is absolutely heartwarming. The two girls, already having some musical background, quickly picked up the basics of the Guzheng.

They take every lesson seriously and often show up early just to practice.
Besides Guzheng, they’re also learning P**a and Dizi with us.

One of them shared:

“We really love Chinese music, but it’s hard to find Chinese music teachers where we live in the U.S.
So every time we return to Singapore, it’s like recharging.
We can’t wait to come back to your school — to learn different traditional instruments and play beautiful music. It truly makes us happy.”

Watching them, we were reminded of something simple but powerful:

True passion isn’t held back by distance.
Even across the Pacific, Chinese music can quietly take root in the heart.

𝗦𝗵𝗼𝗽 𝗧𝗮𝗹𝗸 @ 𝗘𝗮𝘀𝗼𝗻: “E𝘅𝗰𝗲𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗦𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲, 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗶𝘀𝗵”
We recently received this review from a customer in the Netherlands who purchased an Erhu from us — and we’re incredibly grateful for the kind words:

“I live in the Netherlands and recently purchased an Erhu from Eason Music Pte Ltd, and I can confidently say their service was nothing short of exceptional from start to finish.

From the moment I placed my order, Sung Wah and his team were in regular contact, proactively assisting with every step — including permit arrangements. Every question I had was met with friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful responses. It really felt like they cared about getting everything just right.

There was a small hiccup due to human error that would’ve delayed the arrival of my Erhu. But instead of making excuses, Eason immediately took responsibility and upgraded the shipping to express at their own cost to ensure I received it on time. That kind of integrity and care is rare and deeply appreciated.

As for the Erhu itself? Absolutely outstanding. The craftsmanship, tone, and attention to detail exceeded my expectations.

I would recommend them without hesitation to anyone looking for a high-quality Erhu and an impeccable customer experience.”

Takeaway:
Mistakes can happen — but how you respond makes all the difference. We're proud to serve customers near and far with honesty, care, and instruments that speak for themselves.

𝗦𝗵𝗼𝗽 𝗧𝗮𝗹𝗸 @ 𝗘𝗮𝘀𝗼𝗻: 𝗟𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝗮 𝗗𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗦𝗵𝗼𝘄 — 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗘𝗿𝗵𝘂𝘀
An elderly man and his adult daughter came into the shop looking for a new Erhu.

The father had recently started Erhu lessons and felt it was time to upgrade from his current instrument. They came in with a clear budget, so we presented a selection of five Erhus for him to try — each one carefully chosen to match their price range and needs.

It was fascinating to observe the process. Whether it was a trained ear or just personal preference, the father tried each Erhu thoughtfully and eliminated them one by one. He clearly had a sound in mind — and was patiently searching for it.

Eventually, they narrowed it down to two instruments. After more testing (and a bit of advice from us), he finally chose the one that spoke to him.

His daughter smiled and said, “I knew he was going to pick that one — the moment I heard him play it.”

Just then, our boss returned from running errands, tried the chosen Erhu himself, and gave it glowing praise: “This one’s got a really special tone and its very easy to play.”

Honestly, watching it all unfold felt a bit like a musical dating show — shortlisting, comparing, tension, and finally… the perfect match.

—

Takeaway:
Finding the right Erhu isn’t just about specs or price — sometimes, it’s about the moment when the sound clicks with the person holding it.
