The first one, wandering on the verge of collapse
In March, the two drum teams merged into a new Full Of Stars Drum Team, coinciding with the ravages of Aumi Kerong, and the outbreaks in Fanchang and Jinghu caused the whole city of Wuhu to enter a state of high alert. On March 20, Teacher Shen released a teaching video asking everyone to learn the drum song of "Hope" online during the epidemic period, which is no longer a job to do.
Le le drumming I am very unconfident, because he has a poor sense of music, do not know with the beat, will only follow the gourd painting scoop, usually everyone playing drums together is basically in the abuse of the number, last year's annual meeting when performing "Rhapsody in the Forest" actually ran to the side in front of everyone, quickly pull him up and run again, now for this kind of music performance is extremely unconfident. Now that I have entered the new drum team, under the guidance of Teacher Shen, I also want to let my children learn well. Looking back on the learning process of more than a month, it was divided into two stages, the most uncomfortable stage was from March 21st to April 8th, the first stage of practice, in order to let him shoot the first minute of music, I often wandered on the verge of collapse, fortunately, at the last moment, the music was finally able to complete the first nearly one minute of music independently. The second half of the two minutes of work is much smoother than the first half, as of the end of April, now Lele can accompany the situation, do not want me to beat the beat to find the drums by myself, can be completely independent performance, I usually punch the video string together, basically reflecting our step by step learning difficult process, it is painful and happy.
On March 22, just a few days ago, teaching children to beat drums according to numbers, the biggest problem is that they can't change their techniques in time. The rhythm is 123 123 123 133, and the back cannot be smoothly replaced by 133. There was no way to hold the stick to block his hand when switching, and Lele knew it, but he couldn't control it, and his ultra-short attention was the biggest obstacle.
On March 26th, because I can't always switch and don't talk about keeping up with the music, so these days, I will write the beat on the paper, increase the visual cue, that is, I refer to a beat, lele beat a beat, and when there is nothing to do, I will recite this beat on this paper, the back is also difficult to memorize, I read once, memorized N times, or unfamiliar ... , let me swim on the verge of collapse! But slowly, fingers to the beat let the music beat the drums, then it can keep up.
On April 4th, these two days of adjustment of the method, the learning to decompose, a round of play three times, the first time is that I use my fingers to beat Lele to look at him, this is no problem, the second time the difficulty is increased, without finger assistance, let Lele directly look at the beat on the paper, this is often wrong, the third degree of difficulty is increased, directly put the paper away, let him use the memory beat in his brain, this is often wrong. After a few days of practice, today I tried to beat with the music, the music has the teacher's beat, listen to the beat and then shoot at the memory (or look at the beat on the paper), although the beat is fast, but also basically able to finish the beat, the rhythm speed is ready to adjust in the next few days.
On April 6th, entering the run-in stage with music, I made two pieces of music, one was the teacher's beat, and the other was pure accompaniment (you need to find the beat yourself), and the two pieces of music alternately practiced. At the beginning, you must always be ready to assist in the back, especially if you do not have a teacher to beat you. Now only in the first piece of music can be initially completed independently, the second piece of music without the teacher beat the beat is chaotic. This really made me crazy, when I practiced on the night of the 7th, I originally thought that today was almost basically able to complete independently, by the way in the group to play a card, the result of this period is always unable to complete independently, the heart is very anxious, the voice is getting louder and louder, the expression is more and more fierce, the result is that the child is more and more afraid, the performance is more ignorant, I once again wandered on the verge of collapse and rampage, fortunately, Le Mom found out in time that the situation was not right, and quickly pulled the child away.
April 8th, regret yesterday's impatience, the child is getting worse and worse, sometimes take a step back from the sea and the sky, if so, today will perform particularly well, and finally be able to complete the first beat independently. Ready to consolidate for two days and then practice the next paragraph, I don't know how many "difficulties and obstacles" are waiting for me later.
The second part, the dawn of the dawn
On April 21st, this period of practice is the whole piece of music, and this stage of practice requires shouting a beat or gesturing in front. When practicing, the beat is fast and sometimes can't be grasped, when he plays fast, you need to grab his hand in time, wait until the drum point arrives to let him continue, when playing slowly, either assist to speed up, or skip a beat to keep up with the rhythm, the time is long, feel the drum and rhythm grasp more and more accurate. The most troublesome thing in the middle is the stereotype, because the two loops of music are not the same, and it takes a lot of energy to adapt to this change.
Chapter Three: Happiness Will Come
On April 28th, happiness finally came, Lele can now play independently from the beginning to the end without any assistance, lele drumming expression is becoming more and more relaxed, only to start to often flat mouth want to cry, emotions are mostly tense, especially when my voice is getting louder and louder, now when playing drums often laugh and giggle, this is more and more confident performance, especially when it is about to end, the work is about to be completed, so happy! I'm so happy!
Looking back at the nearly forty days from March 21 to today's April 28, how much helplessness, how much sighing, how much effort... but after yesterday's drum team group punched the clock, I saw that Teacher Shen's evaluation had disappeared, and Teacher Shen greatly praised Lele, saying that his rhythm was good, and the affirmation of having a teacher was the greatest praise for me, hahaha!
Thanks to the selfless support of the Wuhu Xingwang team, I continued to persevere on the brink of collapse, and the glimmer of dawn of the child's growth slowly converged into the sunshine.
