作品简介
“二•胡”有三重喻义：一、这是一首二胡重奏作品；二、作品为两把“二泉琴”而作；三、音乐素材源于两首经典二胡名曲——《二泉映月》与《赛马》。
《二泉映月》与《赛马》是创作思维、风格迥异的两首乐曲。正是基于这种“迥异”，《二•胡》把两首曲子的“素材”设为两个“端点”，让音乐由此及彼地行运展开。其中，二胡特有的拉奏弓法既是不同“素材”的嫁接桥梁，也是乐曲延绵展开的贯穿因素，更是二重奏的互动基础。作曲者试图彰显中国古典的音乐思维模式并对其重构，又竭力保留中国音乐的五声调性及特有的旋法，以使作品兼具时代气息、民族特色，以及音乐的可听性。
Brief introduction
‘Er·Hu’has three meanings: first, this piece is an ensemble for erhu, second, it iscomposed for two ‘erquan fiddles’, third, the musical materials of this piece derivefrom two classical pieces of erhu music-‘The Moon Over a Fountain’ and ‘horserace’.
‘TheMoon Over a Fountain’ and ‘horse race’ are two totally different pieces.According to this difference, ‘Er·Hu’ sets up two extreme points by separatelyusing the musical materials from those two pieces. The music is developingbetween the two points. The particular bowing of erhu, which is the foundationof the duet , builds a bridge across those different materials. In order toobtain the flavour of the times and national characters, the composer is tryingto reconstruct the mode of Chinese traditional thinking, meanwhile, however, keepthe charm of pentatonic scale and the particular method of melody going.
二泉琴定弦：
The erquanfiddle should be tuned up as follow:

谢词：
陇菲先生有关中国古典音乐“空中起步”的阐释直接启发了《二•胡》的创作，他还参与了作品的排练并提出了“切终成曲”的修改意见。特此表示衷心感谢！
