Guqin "Autumn Wind" Tutorials

(古琴秋风词教程)

Autumn Wind is a short and fun introductory piece to help beginners familiarize basic Guqin finger structures. In this tutorial I go note-by-note to teach how to play this piece.

(DISCLAIMER: I am still a student myself, to fully learn Guqin I recommend finding an in-person teacher but I realize this is difficult if you're outside of China. I hope this video can help give some basic understanding of how to play this instrument.)
