1. What textbooks are suitable for children's piano enlightenment?

Since it is enlightenment, the foundation is very important, especially the problem of hand shape. If you don't pay attention when you are enlightened, it will be difficult to change in the future.

Another is to let children know some simple knowledge of music theory as much as possible, let them know how to play music scores, and reduce their dependence on teachers, parents and sparring partners. Nowadays, many students are teachers, chewing up knowledge and feeding them. They have no concept of beat and rhythm at all. Under the same difficulty, they won't play another song. Therefore, cultivating children's autonomous learning ability in the enlightenment stage may be slow at first, but gradually, the efficiency will come out.

2. Is piano enlightenment one-on-one teaching or small class teaching?

One-on-one, the teacher can spend all his energy on a child, and the child will pay more attention. After all, the distance between big eyes and small eyes. However, there are many children in small class teaching, and teachers are distracted, which affects teaching.

3. How to correctly enlighten children's piano education

Piano is one of the most effective ways to develop children's right brain and intelligence in modern society. Children's piano enlightenment stage is a very important stage in the process of learning piano. The enlightenment stage directly affects the future development. Children's piano enlightenment teaching should start with learning the correct playing posture, and then be divided into four stages. The first stage is to learn the non-legato method, the second stage is to learn the legato method, the third stage is to learn the jumping method, and the fourth stage is to comprehensively practice the three methods. Children's piano enlightenment teaching also needs teachers to choose suitable teaching materials and parents' cooperation and guidance. Parents' cooperation and guidance also play a very important role in children's piano enlightenment teaching.

Parents' cooperation and consultation

In today's society, piano has become the first choice for preschool music education in many economically developed countries around the world. On the one hand, it is because of the unparalleled expressive force of the piano itself; On the other hand, because the piano is the only instrument among all musical instruments that allows children to sit and play in the most relaxed and unburdened posture; More importantly, scientists' long-term research shows that learning piano is the most effective way to develop the right hemisphere and children's intelligence. Learning piano can not only make children's brains, eyes, hands, feet, ears and even their whole hearts devoted and coordinated, but also make children's organizational ability, coordination ability, command ability, reading ability, memory ability, analytical ability, understanding ability, imagination ability, listening ability, observation ability, attention and endurance get obvious development. So some people say that children who learn piano will become smarter and more capable.

In China, with the country's reform and opening up, the popularity of piano education has developed rapidly. A national social education garden with children as the main body has been formed, and its scale is unprecedented in the history of world music. However, the number of regular and qualified piano teachers is far behind the growing ranks of piano children. As a result, the ranks of teachers are mixed: some have little knowledge of piano teaching, and some people who have never formally studied piano hang up the brand of piano teacher, which makes many parents deceived and miserable. If the parents of piano children can understand a little common sense of piano enlightenment teaching and counseling, the situation will be very different.

"Enlightenment", also called "introduction", is to let beginners acquire basic and introductory knowledge. Regarding the division of piano learning stages, some people divide it into three stages: primary stage, intermediate stage and advanced stage. Enlightenment teaching stage is classified as the primary stage, and some people classify enlightenment teaching as a single stage. The latter is intended to highlight the importance of enlightenment teaching in order to attract people's attention. In teaching practice, we often hear such an argument: "If you can't teach something deep, isn't it easy to teach at all?" "Learn from a teacher first, and then change to a good teacher later." In the eyes of these people, starting from scratch is the least important and the simplest. On the contrary, piano enlightenment teaching is neither a simple matter (as the saying goes: everything is difficult at the beginning, so is piano teaching) nor a trivial matter. Piano enlightenment teaching directly affects students' future development. Because piano enlightenment teaching is like building a tall building, you must lay a good foundation first. If the foundation is not firm and crooked, the building will not be built high. Even if it is barely covered, it will collapse sooner or later.

Successful enlightenment teaching is to make students love piano art first, and then lay a good foundation before they can develop to a higher level. Irresponsible enlightenment teaching will mislead students and parents, and even form many irregular and even wrong habits and methods because of preconceptions. Even if you meet a good teacher in the future, it is difficult to correct it, and you often have to give up halfway.

The objects of children's piano enlightenment teaching are mostly preschool children, and it is generally appropriate to start learning piano at the age of five. Too young, soft fingers are difficult to adapt to the weight of the piano keyboard; If you are too old, you will miss the best period of brain nerve development.

The first step of children's piano enlightenment teaching should start with learning the correct playing posture. Correct playing posture includes correct sitting posture and correct hand shape. The player should sit at the center of the piano. The height of the seat should be the same as that of the keyboard. The elbow bend should be slightly larger than the right angle before and after the seat. Feet should be placed in front of the pedal, and knees should be bent at no less than right angles. The upper body should be straight and natural, lean forward slightly, relax your shoulders, and sit only one-third of the piano stool. The player's hand posture should be naturally hemispherical, with palm joints propped up, knuckles protruding, wrists naturally flat, elbows relaxed, fingers standing up and fingers touching keys.

4. The primary stage of piano teaching

In the current popular children's enlightenment textbooks, it can be roughly divided into three types, namely, treble spectrum introduction method, central C introduction method and multi-tone introduction method. The traditional enlightenment textbook "Bayer Piano Basic Course" adopts the introduction method of treble spectrum, and the book "Thompson Simple Piano Course" 1-5, which is widely used in China, adopts the central C introduction method.

The Children's Piano Course edited by Li and Dong Gangrui adopts an introductory method based on the central C, which breaks through the limitation of the scope of such textbooks in the past. The method of learning weight from the third finger and gradually expanding to other fingers has been recognized as the best method.

In the initial stage of learning piano, you can actually post a search on the internet: learning piano is most afraid of detours.

This is about a legendary parent.

5. What are the piano enlightenment textbooks?

Generally speaking, children learn piano from childhood and Xiaotang 1. Ask in the bookstore and you will know which two books they are referring to.

6. What should children take in the first lesson of piano enlightenment?

I don't think so. Experienced teachers will cultivate children's interest in piano first. Cultivate children's sensitivity to music. Secondly, there are some very basic knowledge such as sitting posture, hand shape and knowing the keyboard.

7. How old is the piano initiation course suitable for children?

Piano education, as a way to cultivate music quality and as the king of musical instruments, naturally becomes the first choice for learning. Piano initiation classes are normal for children over 3-4 years old. 1.56 years old can start.

8. A brief analysis of some problems that should be paid attention to in piano enlightenment teaching.

No matter what you learn, you need certain methods. What methods do you need to learn piano? Looking through the books on piano teaching methods, there are various methods, some even have X-ray photos of arms, and the technical requirements of piano playing methods are almost hundreds. But how many excellent pianists have we trained? On the other hand, in the eighteenth century, although science was not as developed as it is now. But there are many excellent piano master. If they were geniuses, then why were there so many geniuses at that time? This involves the problem of educational methods. In fact, playing the piano has skills and no skills. Depends on what angle you look at it. There is no technology, that is, there is no technology in hands. To say that there is technology means that only technology is available to people. A person's piano playing skills have little to do with music score and piano, but mainly with the person who plays the piano. Because playing the piano requires hands and arms, the current piano skills are basically the skills of training hands and arms. But let's all think about it. What controls hands and arms? It is human brain, thinking, consciousness, nerve, psychology and so on. If we only pay attention to the training of hands and arms, isn't it a bit putting the cart before the horse? In fact, we can also seek deeper roots. What can affect thinking, consciousness and psychology? That is, people's personality, emotions and educational environment. The root of piano technical training is related to one's personality, mood and educational methods.

Generally speaking, the training of learning the piano can be divided into three aspects: physical (action, nerve) control, emotional (personality) control and thinking consciousness (attention, psychology) control.

1. Limb Control: The performance itself requires certain movements of fingers, arms, bodies and other limbs, and the training of performance movements is the training of these limbs' control ability. In fact, normal people can do the movements needed to play the piano without training. Finger-lifting and finger-dropping in Legato are just like opening our hands when we take something. The hand-raising and hand-dropping actions in staccato are like the natural drooping of our hands when we sit down lazily, and the hand-raising action in skipping is like the action of quickly withdrawing our hands when we are frightened. The only difference is that we are usually unintentional, but now we are intentional and there are some unnatural actions. So is speed practice. We should have obvious feelings in teaching. The faster students practice, the less they play. On the contrary, their hands will become stiff because of rapid practice. Even if the speed can be fast, it is mostly rolling and crawling. If you practice slowly for a certain period of time, you can achieve unprecedented speed. The reason is that when the speed exceeds a certain speed, due to the psychological factors of the performer, it will cause certain psychological tension. On the one hand, psychological tension may be due to inexperience, on the other hand, it may be due to poor emotional and psychological stability. This kind of nervous mood will cause muscle stiffness and make the movements lose coordination. So slow practice can make the movements more coordinated, thus improving the performance speed. (psychological problems will be discussed later. ) What we want to make clear is that practicing the piano is not to obtain the unprecedented range of motion of fingers, nor to practice the contraction speed of muscles. The function of muscle is to have the contraction ability of action, and the contraction speed depends on the reaction speed of nerve, which has little to do with muscle. So controlling limbs is actually exercising muscles through the reaction of the nervous system. The function of repeated practice is to make your muscles have the naturalness, habit and memory of action, so that your muscles can fully and truly show the information transmitted by the nervous system. Therefore, the basic principle of physical training is "intentional and natural". Regarding the movements of playing the piano, the first thing to be clear is that although there are various marks on the music score, they can be summarized into only three categories. One is Legato, one is staccato, and the third is jumping. Legato refers to the playing method in which notes are connected by connecting lines. Staccato refers to the playing method in which there are no connecting lines between notes and no other marks. Jump refers to the playing method in which there is no connection between notes, but there are jump marks and pause marks. These are the only three ways to play music. For example, the emotional imprint of Yi Yin and Boeing. Can be summarized as Legato and Intermittent, the main difference is the cohesion between notes. I believe that as long as we carefully distinguish, we will soon be able to distinguish the playing methods of all music scores. Let me introduce some requirements for playing the piano:

1. Hand type: First, the hand naturally droops, then carefully keep the shape of the hand drooping and lift it on the keys. This is the type of hand needed to play the piano. In other words, the hand shape of playing the piano is to keep the hand in the most casual and natural state. At this time, the hand shape also meets the requirements of empty palm, flat wrist and standing fingers. Be careful not to put five fingers on five keys. Because the state of playing the piano is to keep the natural state, in the process of playing the piano, no matter how difficult the music is, how complicated the score is and how big the span is, it should be regarded as a test of the natural state. The main task of playing is to keep the natural state of the hand unchanged. If the students' hands are relatively large, it is natural to put them on the keys, and there is no special requirement. If students' hands are small, instead of distributing their fingers on five keys, it will inevitably lead to the stiffness of their hands. The result is that the player becomes stiff before he starts playing the piano, which is equivalent to artificially creating obstacles to playing the piano. Moreover, if the hand is kept in a natural state, the finger can drop the key in the direction of the center of gravity, so there is no problem of the center of gravity moving. In fact, the movement of the center of gravity itself is to find the most natural state of the hand. ......

2. staccato: in the state of keeping the wrist and hand shape unchanged, lift the hand from the keys and fall at a constant speed. The key to staccato is to keep the wrist and hand shape unchanged, especially the wrist, absolutely stable. It is easy to speed up the fall, and suddenly slow down when it falls on the keys, which is caused by psychological tension. )

3. Legato: In the state of keeping the wrist and hand shape unchanged, only move the metacarpal joints and lift the fingers.

9. How to arrange the ladder course of learning piano?

First, the correct learning order of piano course is divided into three steps:

1, sound (music performance)

Without good expressive voice, it is not music. Too many piano players who have been trained for many years have no sense of music, and their sense of music is even worse than that of ordinary people who have never studied music for a day. Because music is in line with human nature, as long as "human nature" is still there, everyone can understand music. Under the correct guidance of teachers, the process of understanding can be accelerated and the time of understanding can be shortened.

2. Spectrum reading technology

Music score is a navigation chart leading to music. Correct and efficient reading techniques can help you find "music itself" quickly. Excellent piano course must put the problem of reading music in an important position, and the basic reading skills must be completely solved 2-3 years before piano learning.

3. Playing skills

Playing skill is a means of transmitting music. There is no good technical system (note: it refers to 10 basic technologies based on three key-touching methods of non-Legato, staccato and Legato, and thousands of different sounds produced according to music conditions. ), you can't get to the holy land of music by using the "navigation map" of music score.

With a good technical system, your means of transportation are "airplane" and "high-speed rail". The average level of technical ability, you just need a broken truck or tractor, or a carriage or ox cart. Without technical ability, you just walk to your destination on your stomach.

Second, the safety of piano courses

1, the learning time of the elementary class is long.

Now some students are new here, unfamiliar with piano, and have little interest in learning piano. Therefore, the current music training classes will arrange these piano courses from less to more, which can cultivate these children's interest in piano at the beginning and let them quickly master the method of playing piano in the later stage.

2. The study time of intermediate class is moderate.

At present, junior high school students generally apply for intermediate piano training courses, and the piano courses in these music training courses are also very reasonable. On Saturday or Sunday, it is basically four hours from 8 am to noon 12, providing these junior high school students with time to practice the piano, correcting the playing process in time and pointing out the shortcomings.

Morning time can make children's minds clearer.

3. Long-term practice in advanced classes

At present, only children with a certain piano foundation will enroll in advanced piano training classes. The arrangement of piano courses in these music training classes is also in line with the acceptance of these children. The children in these reports and training classes should have a very solid grasp of the basic knowledge of piano and play some simple songs very well. So in the course of the course, these teachers need to insert some difficult songs.

These students spent a long time practicing. Generally, the advanced training class takes him about a day.

(9) Extended reading of the teaching content of piano enlightenment course:

Matters needing attention in learning piano

1, On-off and On-off: Break up and practice first, practice your left and right hands before joining hands.

2. Slow and fast: practice slowly first, and strive for accuracy in the process of slow practice (rather slow than wrong). After practice, gradually accelerate until you reach the speed specified in the tune.

3. Zero-sum whole: Don't practice in large sections (or even whole articles) from the beginning. Divide the song into several short paragraphs (as far as possible according to the phrase) and practice it in short paragraphs. After practicing to a certain extent, combine several exercises and finally practice the whole song together.

4. Easy first, then difficult: take out the difficulties and focus on tackling key problems. You can't work on difficult phrases, paragraphs or even sections. The more difficult it is, the harder it is to work. Every time you overcome a difficulty, you rise to a higher level!

5. Reading spectrum and memorizing spectrum: Reading spectrum can exercise the ability of reading spectrum and reading spectrum, and memorizing spectrum is the basic requirement, so reading spectrum and memorizing spectrum.

Ability needs cross-practice, and it can't be neglected.

10. What are the teaching methods of piano enlightenment education?

The teaching method of art learning is to integrate boring piano lessons into games and take children into a scene to learn. Children can experience the fun of learning the piano and are very interested.
