When learning Guqin, I always think that practicing more techniques is enough, but it is not necessarily true. Although Guqin techniques require diligent practice, they also require more thought. When the guqin is learned to a certain level, thinking is more important than practice. Practice the song, think the god. Composer, playing skills; God, verve. It's easy to get it, but it's hard to get it. Qu Gui is fascinated. The pursuit of guqin is Shen Yun. If you just immerse yourself in practicing the piano, although the technique is skillful and the finger movement is smooth, it may not be able to achieve its charm. Practicing the qin is the top priority, qi training is second, and music training is second. The charm of the qin cannot be underestimated. An important part of practicing God is to think more. Think carefully, think deeply, and gradually become fascinated. Qin Zhi is so ugly, in the heart and hands. If you ignore thinking and only focus on practicing hard, in the end you will only be regarded as a skilled piano operator and a piano maker, and it is difficult to have a good song. God is the soul of the successful piano and the life of the music.

The most fundamental difference between a luthier and a luthier is that a luthier has ideas, personality and style. Strictly speaking, a real violinist must be an artistic thinker. People with superficial thinking, lack of knowledge, only know skills, and show off small organs can only become piano craftsmen.

Guangling qin master Hu Lan once recalled that in the late 1940s, a foreign qin player came to his house to visit her father, Mr. Hu Zifu. He learns a lot of piano and can sing a lot, but his fingers are vain, and none of the songs can make sense. After listening to Mr. Hu's performance of "Pingsha Falling Wild Goose", he felt ashamed and disheartened, and planned to give up what he had previously learned and study the Guangling School instead. Mr. Hu said: "The Guangling School may not be easy to learn well. Anyone who learns the qin to a certain level needs to throw away their hands, see with their eyes, listen with their ears, and then throw their eyes and ears away and think with their hearts. Only then can they be considered good at it. Learning. Although you know a lot of music, you have never seen it with your eyes, listened to your ears, or thought about it with your heart. You are just practicing the piano with your hands. How can you get the charm of the music? I think you should work on the fingering first. Think more about the strength of wiping, picking, hooking, tickling, holding, and splitting the strings. For example, plucking the strings with the right hand should be heavy but not rude, the lower fingers should be light but not frivolous, not rushing when fast, and not slack when relaxing. When pressing the strings with the left hand, when using Yin and Ying, it should be smooth and without stagnation, and when using Zhuo, use Note, and there should be extension after setting. These are the quintessence of sound selection, and you need to understand the depth of meaning with your heart. When playing the piano, you must be able to express the meaning beyond the strings and trigger your own rich associations. When playing "Flowing Water", one should feel that the water is vast and the surging waves are galloping in front of you. After you have mastered the basic skills, you must master the music and understand more about the structure, content and artistic conception of the music. .

In a word, when playing the piano, one needs to have a peaceful demeanor, a calm breath, one’s mind must be immersed in selflessness, one’s heart must feel peaceful, and when one plays the piano music with one’s hand, the heart and hand are self-contained. This can only be experienced by oneself, and it is difficult to say one or two of them in words .
