Yin Ziwei (193—1985), born B, was a violinist. Originally from Dongguan, my ancestors lived in Longjiang, Shunde, and lived in Hong Kong with my father since childhood.

Yin Ziwei first studied music with Liang Lisheng, the predecessor of Cantonese music. Later, he was instructed by many famous artists, such as Qiu Hezuo, He Liutang, Song San, Shen Yunsheng, Tai-so Ho, Cai Zirui, Qian Dashu and so on, and he performed at the age of 11. In the 7th year of the Republic of China, Yin went to Shanghai by self-respect, served as a teacher in the Music Department of China Concert and Jingwu Sports Association successively, and studied violin with Situ Mengyan and Li Jiashi, a Filipino violinist living in Shanghai, and gradually formed his own Guangdong violin playing style.

He felt that the range of instruments used in Guangdong music at that time was not wide enough, which affected the performance effect. Therefore, he introduced western violins and created a unique playing method of "Guangdong Violin", which changed the fixed string GDAE of the violin to the fixed string FCGD； of Guangdong strings. In the playing method, it absorbed the fingering, kneading and bowing of the ancient Guangdong Erxian, and formed a unique violin playing skill. He became one of the important figures who played the violin in Cantonese music in the early days.

In 9 years of the Republic of China, he was invited to perform in New Zealand. In 13 years of the Republic of China, he was invited by the Hong Kong Chinese Chamber of Commerce to perform at the London Expo in England. Later, he was invited to perform in the United States and Canada, which was well received by Chinese and foreign people, so that Cantonese music soon spread to Europe and America. At that time, many record companies invited him to record more than 12 records, which made Yuele a household name at home and abroad and was once called "national music".

Yin's works include Cantonese music The Pearl at Night, Hero of Hua Yao, Victory, Emperor Chao, Phoenix Dance, Phoenix Dance, Flower Dance, etc. Most of them love the motherland, love the nation and inspire the people to be positive. They are representative works of Guangdong music, and many of them have been recorded. He was the chairman of the Hong Kong Quyi Association and the founder of the Hong Kong Bahe Music Group and the Hong Kong Quyi Society. He died in the United States on May 8, 1985.
