A father's perception of his daughter learning piano has reached my heart!

Share this article with all the parents, if you plan to let your child learn the instrument or is already learning, make a reference ~ the article is very long, patiently read it, I believe you will also benefit as much as the grandfather ...

My daughter "Lan Lan" began learning piano at the age of five and a half. It's been a year now. There has been great progress in all aspects, and every time I see her fleshy little hands on the piano, jumping, and sometimes singing while playing, enjoying herself. I was shouting, clapping, whistling and playing music. Sometimes they also dance and play with treasures. She was always giggling like a little flower. I know her favorite dad is sitting on the couch next to her and listening to her play the piano. Whether she played well or badly, I always encouraged her and praised her loudly. Unexpectedly, using the platform of the piano, our feelings are getting deeper and deeper.

She got a lot of pleasure from the piano, learned a lot of good qualities other than the piano, and of course, there was a lot of bitter water -- the piano is really so difficult to master. As a father, I got a lot of feelings from my daughter's learning to play the piano. These feelings may be of some help to you and me in life. That's why I'm writing this article to encourage you.

1. Guidance

The greatest gift that parents can give to their children is that they can cultivate some interest in lifelong use from an early age. Some skills are difficult to learn when they reach an old age. The cultivation of piano playing is one of them. When you get older, your hands stiffen. As parents, we have the conditions to of course let our children learn some musical instruments. However, we must have the right attitude towards learning musical instruments, and do not "do whatever it takes to achieve the goal". Learning piano is not about the end, it's about the process. The mastery of this process, in addition to the "means". The most important thing is the mindset.

I wish my little one could "enjoy" the piano. I don't care if she can become a pianist. I hope that when she grows up in the future, she can play the piano whenever she wants to be quiet and relaxed. Soothe yourself with the sound of the piano.

See many examples of children who fail to learn the piano. I often give up after two or three years of study. Children can't stand it, parents can't stand it. A handful of snot and tears, only to get on the piano to think about it, coercion and inducement are not successful, parent-child talk about the piano are discolored. This is the parents and teachers who harm the children. It's better not to learn.

In English, playing the piano is "Play Piano". To make children feel that the piano is a good friend, it is possible to play.

This is my poster posted next to the Lanlan piano: "Dear Elaine, I am Piano PiPi. I am your best friend. Please play with me, Talk with me. Sing with me. "She sees these words every time she plays the piano.

2. Long-term smoke

Kids who learn piano don't go bad. This sentence is correct.

An important purpose of learning piano is to practice patience. If you think about it, a 5- or 6-year-old child sits at the piano and practices for 30-40 minutes, or even an hour. Is it easy? This kind of training is to develop the habit that they can sit still, can calm their minds, and can endure. Children who can sit in this way will be able to go a long way in school and study. Nor is it easy to be lured and damaged by others.

Learning to play the piano is a "long-term smoking" process. Looking at the score, the hand can be accurate, follow the beat, and pop out immediately. It is also necessary to coordinate with the left and right hands. This kung fu is not simple to be skilled. But don't think about it too hard. As long as you practice every day, month, month, and day, you will definitely achieve it. This is called "smoke".

"MengMu Three Moves", what happened? It is to give his son a good smoking environment. Why do we want to go to college, to go to a good university? To put it bluntly, there is a good "smoking" environment. Why do we want to be able to sit in the book city, read every day, study every day? To put it bluntly, it is to give yourself a good smoking environment, but also to let your children have a good atmosphere.

So, I am very grateful to my daughter Lanlan, because to give her a good smoking environment, I have to start with me! Thank you to her for encouraging my progress even more.

3, change it from time to time, and go to a higher level

Be sure to have a parent (dad or mom) who is responsible for the child's piano studies. He wants to understand the teacher's requirements and homework every time he teaches the piano. Don't be afraid to be a fool. Learning music is fun. We parents are not stupid, and we can use this machine to improve our musical accomplishment. Appreciating beauty is our innate instinct.

If the mother is responsible for the child's piano learning, then the father is responsible for making a buffer. Because mom has to face the teacher's eyes every week. If the child does not talk well, the mother will feel sad in front of the teacher. Her sense of responsibility will definitely unconsciously and strictly supervise the child's piano learning. It can be harsh. Then the father should often discuss with the mother the way to teach the child, and find a way to soften the mother's strictness. Find a way to be "middle way".

It is important to play "fingering" correctly on the piano. But don't choke on food. When children first start learning the piano, they still take the guidance of interest as the main point, emphasizing the fingering as the secondary. After a few months, ask for the right fingering. Anyway, parents should not be static in the education of their children, but should keep pace with the times. Be flexible.

For five- and six-year-old children, we as parents hope that they will achieve learning outcomes--- the most important thing is to let them "practice by themselves, correct themselves, and demand by themselves"; I can change it from time to time and go to the next level. If this result is not achieved, none of our education will be successful.

So this "change from time to time" is not forcing them to change it. It is they themselves who want to correct it. This "going to the next level" is not that we force them to improve, but that they themselves want to go to the next level.

The practice of the piano is a weapon for cultivating them to learn and demand themselves. I'm glad That Lanlan is moving in this direction.

4, into life, in order to go long

Don't think that children don't know anything. Don't think that children learning the piano is just "hard" practice, in fact, every piece of music is as interesting as life. It has its highs and lows, its ups and downs, its mood, and its feelings. I like to let Lan Lan experience it.

Just now I walked over to the couch next to Lan Lan's piano and listened to Lan Lan play the piano. I asked her what the author of the song she played (To Celia) was trying to show? She groaned for a moment, and what she said next was so good. She said the song was a happy play between him and Celia. Lan Lan went on to say a lot of her thoughts. For the more difficult section, she said he was teaching Celia how to play. Because Celia is still young.

The purpose of learning piano is to learn music. The purpose of learning music is to be able to appreciate noble and beautiful things, and then to cultivate their own disposition.

(It's raining lightly outside now, on a cloudy day, and I'm playing on my computer at the dinner table.) Lan Lan's voice practicing the piano, but lively seeped into my heart. It was a warm day. )

I believe that most children are not musical geniuses or musical folly. They are all indoctrinable. They can all use learning piano to understand and appreciate music. The problem is that we are parents. They were not properly educated. We may just be fighting for fame. Just so that they can learn the piano well, and forget the real meaning of learning the piano.

Writers look like they first have to "take it easy." Your nervousness will make your child unbearable. Have you ever sat next to a child practicing the piano, and was picky about what was wrong here, what was wrong there, and made the child cry. You know your kid, he's been working hard, he's 99 percent right, but some parents only see one percent of the wrong shots?

The piano is to be practiced every day, but only by relaxing, enjoying the process more, and not caring about its results, can you go long. In Buddhism, the Diamond Sutra says, "You should dwell in nothing, but be born with your mind." That's the way it is.

It's also important not to just practice new tunes without reviewing old ones. Some teachers ask students to practice too many new songs. Parents should be in control. It is not in the quantity, but in the quality. I am afraid that every day the child cries and cries, blindly practicing the new song prescribed by the teacher, and there is no way to experience and enjoy the old song that has been practiced. I used to ask LanLan to play the piano for half an hour, whatever she wanted. I could feel that she liked to play old tunes and enjoy the different sediments.

5, the same notes, different combinations, similar natural sounds

All of our human music is made up of these C, D, E, F, G, etc. notes. I've been thinking about a question lately: Why is it that all the people in the world, no matter where you come from, what ethnicity, what kind of environment, when you hear songs like "a twinkle and a sparkle", or "a boy sees a wild rose", or "outside the long pavilion, by the ancient road", or "There is a river in front of my house", or "trout", and so on, all the people in the world feel good? Why? Do we have common genes that determine our likes and dislikes for note arrangements? Will I have another article to discuss my ideas?

All of us, all of us, have "the same notes." They can all show natural music. All the people of the world, no matter how noble, no matter the region, the color, the race, no one does not dislike "good" and "noble" things. All beings are essentially equal. Different environments, like different combinations of notes, can become chaotic, noisy, and unpleasant. But we can't, never can, never can, erase our common pursuit of "beauty" in every human being.

As parents, we must have great confidence. Their own children, like all the children in the world, have the notes to create the infinite treasures of the world. We don't need to be saviors, we want to "create" miracles. We just have to create an environment for them.

Do you have the natural instinct to listen to children spontaneously? Listen more, you'll learn a lot.

6. Summary

Piano education is actually the epitome of our education of children. It is more difficult to master than formal school education because it is a spontaneous project for parents to learn from their children.

Parents have a good word: That is a gift for your child's life. They can learn and experience first-hand what is music, what is elegant, what is beauty, what is noble. It is also possible for children to develop their patience from an early age. Cultivate children's ability to learn and improve themselves. Even, because of the common interest of the whole family, it stimulates a strong and warm centripetal force of the family. Therefore, piano education can be an important part of children's quality development education and family education.

Suppose parents think that "children play the piano well" as their sole purpose. I think it's a pity. If parents are too strict with their children in order to achieve this goal. I think it's so pathetic.

For me, the purpose of a child learning to play the piano is all the items I have listed in "Words For Parents to Master". To achieve these goals, we must practice the "Middle Way." Encourage-oriented requirements. Persistence led by inspiration. It is even more important to educate yourself first. It is good to educate children. From the long road of educating children, we want to thank our children for learning a lot.

Finally, I hope that everyone will create a warm and harmonious family from the study of music. Think about what a warm picture it is to see mom and dad sitting on the couch on a cold winter night, smiling and listening to the sound of a child playing the piano.
