I often hear someone say: "The guzheng only has 21 strings, and in addition to playing fa and si, it requires skills, other sounds can come out at once, and it is too simple to learn the guzheng..."
Some people say that guzheng can be learned quickly in three months, but the piano, violin, cello (Western music) is different, and if you want to learn well, you have to work harder! And it's hard to learn well!
For musicians who have not been exposed to the guzheng, it is understandable to be biased against the guzheng, after all, the guzheng does only have 21 strings, and there is indeed a gongshang corner zhengyu five tones (do re mi sol la), the guzheng is indeed very easy to get started, but any instrument wants to learn the peak of the point, it needs to pay a lot, so how to learn the guzheng well?
1. Personal intentions
Interest is important, followed by adherence to interest. Learning guzheng must be persistent, otherwise it would be a pity to give up halfway
You may encounter many difficult problems during the study of guzheng, but as long as you can stick to it and convince yourself to constantly give yourself the psychological hint of "I like guzheng, I must stick to it", you are not far from success!
Second, teach by example
"Teacher, so preaching and teaching karma to solve puzzles", finding a good guzheng teacher is really super important! When looking for a teacher, you must try a class, when you look for a teacher, you must try a class, and when you look for a teacher, you must try a class! Avoid stepping on the thunder and start with the trial lessons!
The first thing to try is to see if the teacher is a graduate of a professional college, whether his basic skills are solid, whether the technology is superb; the second is to try the teacher's teaching philosophy, to see if he is heavy foundation or fast, whether you are satisfied with the way of class, etc. If you want to learn guzheng well, it is strongly recommended to lay a good foundation!
There is also a little trick to share with you, before looking for a teacher, you can first learn it yourself, so that in front of the teacher you will have many questions to ask him, see if the answer he gives you meets your expectations, which is also one of the criteria for picking a teacher!
Third, lay a good foundation
Tick the big and small pinch, up and down the sound shake finger overtones... Each fingering needs to be studied carefully, and through repeated practice, the hand shape must be corrected when it is just learned, paving the way for learning more complex fingering combinations in the future.
Fourth, you are persistent
An instrument is not something that can be made quickly in three or two months, the most important thing is to have a persistent attitude, be sure to insist on practicing, so that your skills can go to a higher level!
Insist on practicing the piano, you will find that your guzheng tone is getting better and better, as for the reason, one is that the guzheng will naturally become better after a long time; another reason is that your technology has reached the point where you can make up for the shortcomings of the guzheng tone, which is very good!
The foreign moon is not necessarily rounder than ours, and the style of the guzheng can control may be more than those of Western music, so I really hope that more and more people can understand the guzheng and learn the guzheng, its tone and learning process will definitely surprise you!
I hope that any instrument you learn is because of love, or from being forced to helplessness to love!
