Dear
Ms Han,
Have
to tell you that I have gotten so many compliments on your performance
that I wish I could have taped them for you to playback. Besides,
both men and women mentioned your beauty and presence on stage!
Your
program was the highlight of the evening and we were so fortunate
to have you be a part of this year's Festival.
You are so amazing to watch! I can't believe all that music comes
out of two strings!

Your

society.

It's
so good to put a face -- and person -- to music I've heard and
really enjoy. Your playing is so expressive. Makes me want to
write music for the Er-Hu. I appreciate the soulful beauty you
bring out in your instrument. Keep up the good work.
Your
music is harmonic to my soul.It express feelings above all human
nature.It is like waves awakening to water. Thank you.

music of Karen Han is absolutely wonderful and really expresses
deepest human feelings.

This
seminar/demonstration was great the other night. I really learned
a lot. Listened to one of the CD's so far. Really enjoying it.
What a lovely instrument the Erhu is.

What
a blessing. . . to hear you play last night (at the SCL's seminar).
Thank you for taking the time to share with us. You've got my
head and heart full of ideas!

I wanted to tell you that I really enjoyed your presentation
at the SCL seminar. Also "The Golden Butterfly" CD is full of
variety of styles. It's not only great performance, but it's also
very educational for me to know what Er-hu can sound in many different
settings. My works appear in film, TV, and video games, and I
would love to bring your beautiful melody to my projects one day!

Just
wanted to thank you for your presentation at AFI last night
for the SCL. How moving, beautiful and enlightening your presentation
was. I am not a composer, but came as the guest of a friend,
and I'm certainly glad that I got to see you perform.Your passion
and love for your music and your instrument is quite evident.
As "ambassador" for the Er Hu, you certainly showed its expressive
range, and deep, soulful intimacy.Thanks for sharing your talents
with the world.

It was a pleasure to be able to meet you at the SCL seminar
yesterday. Great performances! I also feel great that you have
made the Chinese people feel proud and I'm definately one of them.

Just a note to again thank you for a wonderful performance
at Cerritos with Hiroshima. As much as we like Hiroshima, it is
that much more beautiful when you are part of the program. Perhaps,
the next time you play with them, you can play the entire program.
Just a thought !!!. Of course we love Hiroshima too, but your
music is special.

Karen:
You are so fabulous! The variation of the songs you played last
night at Doctors Day Celebration by Alhambra Hospital is also
superb. I love them all, especially the very first one and Celine
Dionss My heart will go on. Very touching and beautiful.

It
was a pleasure meeting you at your concert on Feb. 4, 2006.
I confess that I had never heard of your instrument before.
The sounds you produced from the instrument were incredible.
I thoroughly enjoyed watching your play and loved your music.

As
a past student of Ms. Han, I can attest to her patience, her
true love of the instrument - the erhu - and her effort in bringing
the beautiful sound of this instrument to the Western world.

Never
have I heard a musical instrument that reaches in the soul of
a person. Humble and beautiful. Karen, hope you will someday visit
Canada (Ottawa to be specific) and share your wonder of music
with us.

I
saw your performance in Pittsburgh PA recently, it was excellent!
I doubt still if there is anything quite like the sound of erhu,
and how you express it so lovely in your unique way. Thanks again
for the great performance.

After
52 years of living, an erhu fell onto my lap! I am a novice
erhu player in Kona, on the island of Hawaii who practices every
day, like any good kid. Your playing is a magnificent example
of erhu magic, I hope that fate allows me to meet you some day
