To reduce the noise in pipa playing, the pressing of the left hand must be firm and accurate; pay attention to the depth, strength and position of the plucking of the right hand, and the smoothness of the nail itself.

Noise in lute playing is inevitable. No matter how clever a performer is, in the process of playing, there is more or less noise, but when he (she) plays, the noise is small and is covered by the music, making it difficult for our ears to detect it.

Although the noise in the pipa performance is unavoidable, but the noise is too loud and covers the musical sound, it is difficult to hear the content of the song, and it is also "squeaky and squeaky", but the noise can be reduced through practice. It is to pay attention to the following points:

The left hand should press the sound firmly and the sound position should be accurate: generally, it is slightly above the fret or phase, that is, about one centimeter away from the fret or phase. Do not press directly on the phase or fret, nor too far away; The strength of the string must exceed the elastic force of the string, so that the string cannot collide on the frets or phases at any time.

When plucking the strings with the right hand, it is necessary to reduce the number of collisions between the nails and the strings. To achieve this, the depth of the string must be shallow, the contact surface should be small, and the string should be struck quickly, that is, it will fire at the touch of a button. The small depth of string entry can also avoid the friction of the tape on the string. When not hitting the strings, the fingers should not enter the vibration range of the string, and the nails should be about one centimeter away from the string, so as to shorten the time for the nails to enter the amplitude range as much as possible.

The contact points of fast picking and rolling fingers should be closer to the overhand, because the amplitude of the close-overhand string is small, the energy is small, and the noise is also small; generally, when the upper part of the string is played, the music is always light and slow. part.

To keep your nails smooth, pluck the strings with less force than the string itself can handle.
