The Guzheng Studio 青研古筝馆

Had my first guzheng lesson with Qing on 3/9/21. Qing is very professional, down-to-earth, well-spoken, classy and approachable. Nice to know she embraces the good hardcore part of Chinese and Sinitic cultures. Her teaching is easy to understand for beginners as well.Would defo recommend Qing's lessons to anyone who is interested in classical Chinese music.

Buying from Guzheng World (run by Qing Du) was a very pleasant experience. I contacted her via the form from her website to ask about varies models and brands.She replied very quick and gave me detailed information on those and recommended me many others that could fit my taste in appearance and sound and budget (I am a very picky person). She is very patient and kind, answering all of my many questions and inquiries. When a rather frustrating problem occurred she stayed calm and eventually it got resolved.I think she partners or can communicate with many brands (some of them are not listed on her website) which is why I could choose a model that was not on her website before.I was struggling between Zhuque Tang Xiang and Xuan Yue (I really like the sound of single-pice carved models) but chose Tang Xiang in the end, I really love the striking grain pattern and the elegant dark brown frame.When I asked for close up pictures and sound demos she shared many photos of the actual model in stock, which I think is fantastic because you will know how the actual instrument will look like when it arrives.She also offers different types of shipping, via sea (40-50 days) and via air (10-15 days or 7-10 days). My instrument was shipped out directly from the manufacturer in China and it took about 6 days to arrive in Germany. It arrived without any damage, in excellent condition!A FYI, I learned that Zhuque models are not always in stock because the manufacturer operates via pre-orders.All in all, I am very happy with my purchase from Guzheng-World and can definitely recommend! Many thanks to Qing!

Qing is an excellent teacher who paid great attention to detail while teaching my 7yo son. We enjoyed her style of teaching and it has been a privilege learning this wonderful instrument from her.

Miss Qing is very friendly and patient. The learning atmosphere is relaxed and interesting, which makes me immersed in the fun of learning Guzheng.

I would give a 5 Star+++ to Qing for her wonderful and prompt service from the initial consultation to after sales support.I feel that one could count on her trustworthy advice. Both of my travel-sized Zhu Que and Song Bo, which I re-strung to diatonic with the extra strings I ordered with Qing's assistance arrived timely and in great condition in Dubai. Both guzhengs were packed in solid air freight crates.

I had an excellent experience in buying a Guzheng from Qing. She is kind, patient and professional.

Wonderful teacher and a very skilled performer too. Excellent customer service ordering the instrument and online lessons work well. I am learning a lot and really enjoying it--thank you.

Qing is very knowledgeable and trustworthy. I have received my favourite instrument around 10 days from China to London. She used the UPS parcel services for the international delivery. The instrument is well-packed. I am so excited to receive such high quality travel Guzheng. I definitely recommend.

Qing is a professional and patient teacher, as well as a fantastic performer. She is able to demonstrate difficult and abstract techniques and explain the same to me in an easily digestible format. She has great attention to detail, correcting my mistakes in a constructive and encouraging manner. The course syllabus is well-thought and tailored to my progress. Finally, I am grateful for her flexibility where possible to accommodate my work and private diaries.
