"Can't play modern songs", "It's not suitable for children to learn", "It's hard to learn, easy to forget and not pleasant to listen to", all these black pots have been memorized. Yes, this instrument is the guqin. In order to allow more people to get close to Guqin and to eliminate all concerns about Guqin, let us tell you today: Guqin will never carry these black pots!

The

Black Pot One: It will be very difficult for people who have no foundation to learn guqin. If someone asks: what is the biggest obstacle to learning guqin, "no foundation" can be said to be the main reason. Some people think that the guqin is "difficult to learn, easy to forget but not pleasant to listen to".

Especially for people who have no musical foundation, it is even more difficult. However, the reality is not what everyone thinks. Guqin is not only not difficult to learn, but also easier to learn than guzheng, pipa and other musical instruments.

Black Pot 2: Guqin is not suitable for playing modern songs. Many people think that Guqin is only suitable for playing some classic ancient songs. Those so-called "ancient songs" and modern pop songs are only suitable for guzheng, pipa, erhu and other instruments.

But this is not the case. Some modern songs are also very distinctive when played with guqin. For example, "Wolong Yin" in the old version of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "A Laugh in the Sea" in "Swordsman" are actually played with guqin. .

Black Pot Three: Children are not suitable for learning Guqin. This should be the biggest "pot" among the black pots that Guqin has memorized. Many people feel that the guqin has a peaceful tone and a relatively slow tempo, which is not suitable for lively and active "bear children" at all.

On the contrary, it is more suitable for children to learn some musical instruments that sound more lively and lively, such as piano and guzheng. However, the fact once again gave everyone a resounding slap in the face! Not only can children learn Guqin, but there are many benefits!

Heiguo 4: The minus-character score is "Heavenly Book" The minus-character score of the Guqin can be said to be the only score that is different from other musical instruments among all traditional Chinese musical instruments. It is to take apart a part of Chinese characters and reassemble them into a new "character".

Black Pot 5: Women are not suitable for learning Guqin. Many people think that Guqin is only suitable for men to learn, while women are more suitable for learning pipa, Guzheng and other musical instruments. This statement makes absolutely no sense. In ancient China, most of the people who were good at playing the guqin were men.
