In one's life, one must learn a musical instrument. A classical musical instrument like the guzheng, once you learn it, you will never forget it. There are so many musical instruments, let’s learn the guzheng first!

Don't know what musical instrument to learn? Let's learn guzheng first!

Guzheng is one of the unique and important national musical instruments in China. It has beautiful timbre, wide range, rich performance skills and considerable expressiveness, so it is deeply loved by the masses. Research shows that learning the guzheng is a whole-hearted exercise for children:

1. Hand exercise

Learning the guzheng gives children a strong exercise for their fingers and wrists. Chinese medicine believes that the hand is the convergence of all orifices, and the sensitivity of the fingers can stimulate the development of the cerebral cortex. So why is there such a thing as "ingenuity"? The heart refers to the brain, and the flexibility of the brain and the dexterity of the hands are interlinked.

2, eye exercise

When practicing guzheng, one has to look at the score and take care of each string at the same time. If the reading speed of the eyes is not fast, it is easy to lose one and the other if it can't keep up. So learning guzheng can train eyesight.

3. Ear training

Playing the guzheng is undoubtedly a great exercise for the ears. Children who play the guzheng from a young age have a much stronger concept of intonation than the average person.

4. Physical exercise

Playing the guzheng must be "sitting and sitting", and the body posture and the distance between the elbows are all important. If we have a bad habit of sitting when reading in class, it will become "myopia", and even "cervical spondylitis" or "hunchback". But I have never heard of myopia and hunchback due to playing the guzheng. Instead, people who play the guzheng are more elegant and more temperamental. Why is this? This is the training of one's body by playing the guzheng.

5. Inner exercise

Children who learn guzheng spend less time playing than ordinary children, and spend more time practicing the zither every day. They learn discipline, restraint and cherishment earlier than ordinary people. Therefore, children are forced to practice the piano. Just like learning Chinese and mathematics, they must have perseverance and perseverance.
