传统的筝乐早期被分成南北两派，比较代表的为“浙江、山东、河南、客家、潮州”五大流派，到了现代，流派的区别已经很小了，几乎每个流派都兼具各家之长。
In the early days of traditional Zheng music, it was divided into two schools: the north and the south, with the representative schools being the five major schools of "Zhejiang, Shandong, Henan, Hakka, and Chaozhou". In modern times, the differences between schools are very small, and almost every school has its own strengths.
自秦、汉以来古筝从中国西北地区逐渐流传到全国各地，并与当地戏曲、说唱和民间音乐相融汇，形成了各种具有浓郁地方风格的流派。传统的筝乐被分成南北两派，现一般分为九派，正如秦筝理论家、教育家曹正所言“茫茫九派流中国”，各派的筝曲及演奏方法各具特色。 [1]
Since the Qin and Han dynasties, guzheng has gradually spread from northwest China to various parts of the country, blending with local opera, rap, and folk music, forming various schools with strong local styles. The traditional Chinese zither music is divided into two schools: the north and the south, and is now generally divided into nine schools. As the Qin zither theorist and educator Cao Zheng said, "The vast nine schools flow to China," each school's zither music and performance methods have their own characteristics. [1]
陕西筝
Shaanxi Zheng
陕西地区是中国筝的发源地，但眼下“真秦之声”的筝乐却几乎近于绝响，这里有丰富多彩的戏曲和民间音乐，其间传统的惯用乐器均不为少，但唯独无筝或极少用筝；只有在榆林地区才用古筝作为伴奏乐器，跟洋琴、琵琶、三弦一起在榆林小曲的伴奏中出现。曹正先生说，这就是“秦筝的余绪”。筝在榆林虽有三百多年的历史，但榆林地处偏僻，文化比较落后，筝的技艺还停留在古法弹奏上，右手主要用大食两指，左手滑颤音很少，这正是筝的最早奏法。古家庄电动伸缩门 保定桌椅  保定水处理设备 河北机械加工  保定养老院  保定防水筝在陕西地区已渐渐失传，其传谱传人都无资料可寻。
Shaanxi region is the birthplace of Chinese Zheng, but currently the Zheng music of the "True Qin Voice" is almost extinct. There are rich and colorful operas and folk music here, and traditional instruments are not rare, but only the Zheng is not used or rarely used; Only in the Yulin region are guzheng used as a accompaniment instrument, appearing in the accompaniment of Yulin Xiaoqu along with yangqin, pipa, and sanxian. Mr. Cao Zheng said, 'This is the remaining thread of Qin Zheng.'. Although the Zheng has a history of over 300 years in Yulin, it is located in a remote area and has a relatively backward culture. The technique of playing the Zheng still remains in the ancient way, with the right hand mainly using the big food fingers and the left hand rarely sliding tremolo. This is the earliest playing method of the Zheng. The guzheng has gradually lost its transmission in the Shaanxi region, and there is no information available on the genealogy of its descendants.
