Music literacy is a comprehensive quality education for learning music. It is an independent professional discipline and a basic compulsory course of music. Including reading music, solfeggio, listening, rhythm, harmony, writing, music appreciation, music history and other comprehensive theoretical basis. It is a compulsory course for all majors in music departments of art colleges and normal universities in China. At the same time, it is also the music theoretical basis that must be matched in the current instrumental music examination. It is an important subject to train musicians and improve their overall musical quality.

Music literacy includes knowledge of music theory, rhythm practice, solfeggio, solfeggio and music appreciation.

Music theory knowledge, as its name implies, is the knowledge about music theory. When a child learns piano for the first time, it is usually demonstrated by the teacher and imitated by the child. As for why they play like this, it is not clear. Music theory knowledge is to teach children not only what it is, but also why.

Rhythm practice is also one of the contents of music literacy class. Rhythm is the basis of music learning. If the rhythm of children is unstable when playing music, it is likely that they will play the octave as the duration of the quarter note, or add the rhythm without attachment points, resulting in the music not being played normally. ?

Music is an art that acts on hearing, so the importance of solfeggio is self-evident. Only by singing and listening can we form a good conditioned reflex and correspond the voice in our ears with the voice in our hearts.

We should not only master the modal key signature and emoji, but also master the intonation, rhythm and beat. You can improve the coordination ability of eyes, ears, hands and brain through sight-reading practice.

Ways to improve music literacy.

1. Listen to music as much as possible: listen to music, especially good music, such as those that have been proved by history and are often played in concerts. In the case of limited music appreciation ability, try to accept good music that has been proved.

2. Learn more about other art knowledge: Music is an abstract art form, which has something in common with other art forms and even everything in the world. If you are an excellent calligraphy connoisseur, or an excellent literary lover, of course, your appreciation of music may be higher. Therefore, trying to improve knowledge and experience outside music is also a way to improve appreciation ability.

3. Learn a musical instrument and music knowledge: If you can learn a little music knowledge or a musical instrument more or less, it will also be of great help to your music appreciation ability, because you know what music looks like, the composition of scales, the direction of harmony and so on, and then you will listen to it professionally when listening to music, making it easier to distinguish between good and bad music. Although music is abstract, there are rules to follow after all.
