Why is it easiest? There is a sound when you touch it. Not a violin, not a trumpet. Only when the piano is touched will there be sound.
Why is it the hardest? You must do five things at the same time when you start playing the piano.
First, you need to know how each finger moves; Second, know the music score; Third, you should know the key; Fourth, we should understand music theory; Fifth, we must understand the sound.
Parents who are learning piano now may not know these five things. Therefore, you can't let your children do five things in the same class at the same time.
Where should children's musical enlightenment begin?
0 1 Let the children hear the sound
There are many different ways to teach the piano, some from knowing the keys, some from knowing the fingers, and some from knowing the notes. How to find this keyboard?
There used to be a keyhole on the piano, and the white key on the keyhole was duo. There is no hole now, so this road is impassable.
Reading music, a child knows nothing. Teach him to read music first, but he doesn't want to play the piano, which ruined his interest. Finger recognition is a must, but it is a question of which finger to start with.
First, you should know the sound. If you know the sound, everything can be solved. Because you know the sound, it is possible to know the music score, keyboard, fingers and theory through the sound.
Music, after all, is based on sound.
Art needs to look at colors and canvases, while sculpture needs to look at stones, clay and various materials. The medium of music is illusory, but sound. Sound is the vibration of air.
Music is called empathy. What is the essence of sound vibration? Is to hear the sound, which is the most fundamental. In my opinion, all kinds of textbooks ignore this problem now. How to make children hear voices?
Hearing the sound is the most important thing. We are now entangled in various subtle purposes, all of which are catching sesame seeds. Sometimes the hand shape should be round, sometimes it should collapse, sometimes it should be high and sometimes it should be low. I'll tell you everything.
Don't look at this. Something just popped up. It's true.
02 black keys VS white key
Where on earth does learning music begin? Let me give you a personal opinion. I think it is better for children to play the first note from black keys than from the white key. What is the truth?
First, his black keys phobia can be ruled out at an early age. If you only learn the white keys, you will be scared when you see black keys, and your fingers will slide down.
Second, there is no dependence on white keys. For many years, it's all white, and you have no dependence. Are you looking for the white key or black keys?
So since black keys, he has relied on it. Black keys, on the other hand, is a pentatonic, just suitable for five fingers, and its distribution is consistent with that of human fingers. So when he plays with five fingers, black keys is much more advantageous than the white key. Of course, it makes sense to put three fingers on the black keys and two fingers on the white key. But it's also interesting to start with five black keys directly.
Which finger is the most advantageous of the five black keys? Should we start with two black keys or three black keys? Three black keys, because three black keys are easy to find.
Which finger of the three black keys is the easiest to intervene? The one in the middle. Because three fingers and human arms are the most common and direct. There is a natural process for each of us to start learning things.
When children learn to walk, they just can't stand up at first. What can you do? They will stand up in a few days. So you have to interest him first.
The fun of coming out of ten fingers
You ask him to find out the notes on the piano one by one. No matter what finger the child uses, what hand type he uses and how he plays, these are secondary and will be discussed later. Let him play by himself, she will be very interested. Let him always play on this key with one finger, slowly and with his eyes closed.
But here's the problem. If you let your child always tap a note, he will lose interest. Teachers or parents need to play with their other hand. Bach played it like this. He plays trio, quartet and quadruple together at home every day. That's how the music is played. He doesn't rely on theory.
If we children start to learn this way, we can learn this sound for a month. Ten fingers, each finger should be pressed, and a different tone should be pressed. How many tones and harmonies you say can be reflected in her ears.
When he gets into the habit, he will feel the sound. You instill real music and music theory into him through these things. There is no need to talk about theory, but let him hear it. If you don't have a voice, you can't grasp the essence of music, and it's useless to learn. I think what is the biggest problem in our study now? Music is a perceptual thing, which depends entirely on your feeling of sound. But I'm not saying that you can't learn theory, but you know that doesn't mean increasing your sense of music. There is no relationship between the two. But first you must have a direct feeling for music. Only in this way can we have a new experience of music.
Blend into music
Music is a great gift from God to mankind. God planted a seed called music in everyone's heart. This heart can grow something, but the current education can't be a tree of music without sowing, fertilizing and watering it.
The most fundamental job of a teacher is to sow seeds, and then slowly love him, help him, let him take root and sprout, blossom and bear fruit. This is the real way to practice music, and everything else is outside music.
To tell the truth, learning the piano can be taught like this: what is the sound on the score, which key corresponds to it, which finger to use, and when to ring it. This is a process of operation, not inaction, but this is not music.
No matter how well you speak, you can understand all the scores, keys, fingers and sounds, but you are still out of the music.
So if you want to get into music, you must listen to the sound. You can hear all kinds of sounds made by the piano.
So don't lead him to like this, not this. Let him know that any sound can happen, let him open his own sky, let all kinds of sounds be instilled, and let him filter and choose for himself. In short, our teachers, parents and classmates need to understand one thing. Learning music is not learning to do it. Piano is not something that can be played by hand. Learning music is to enter the interior of music to experience the fun of music and be moved by music. Of course, we need some finger movements, so we need to practice, but practice can also be fun, as long as you have the idea.
