March 19, 201015 yr In my music theory class we are working on a big paper that is basically the core of the class. My paper involves two pieces, one of them being a chinese erhu song "Sai Ma" which I guess means "Horse Race" or "Racing Horses" etc. Anyways I need help translating and deriving some of the things from sheet music I found of the piece. If anyone either 1.)plays the erhu and/or 2.) can read and translate chinese (i think it's chinese) I need your help please! I need any chinese text translated, and if there are any notations regarding technique, I could use help with that too. The music has been attached to this post, and thanks for any help. edit: I also need help with trying to notate this in western notation. Anyone who plays an erhu and is familiar with western notation I need your help.
March 19, 201015 yr This is simplified Chinese. Your best bet is to ask Angela (makwingka) since she lives in the mainland. She is the only one I know that speaks Chinese. If there are any other members here that can read/understand Chinese, that would be good too :) I can only help in Spanish/Japanese translations, albeit poorly :P
April 1, 201015 yr Google's translator is pretty good for Chinese. I've used it for work a number of times and my boss (a zhongguoren himself) was impressed with its translations.
