Guzheng is a Chinese plucked zither that dates back to 500 B.C. It is rich in playing techniques. The performer plucks the strings with his right-hand fingernails, while his left-hand fingers apply pressure to the strings to execute vibratos, slides, and other embellishments , as well as occasional plucking techniques.

· Playing techniques for Right Hand:
Pluck, Glissando, Tremolo (Shake/摇指), Automatic Tremolo, Overtone
