We have compiled some guzheng fingerings suitable for beginners to learn, which are introduced below.

【Shaking finger】

1: When we practice finger shaking, the little finger should be firmly leaning on the side of Yueshan, but it should not be too hard, otherwise all the center will go to the little finger and the thumb will not be able to exert force.

2: In the roughest practice, you should first practice the split and practice the split fingers. When you practice the split fingers, you need to find the inertia to practice. At the end of the practice and drag, combine the split and drag to find the midpoint of the split and drag. Make good use of the inertia and can't split or drag the weight of the split and drag. to be the same.

3: When practicing finger shaking, use the swing of the wrist (find its inertia between the split and drag) and also use the arm force so that you won't feel tired.

4: The wrist is naturally relaxed. If it is too tight, it will only make the split and drag uneven.

5: When we practice finger shaking, we must touch the front of the fingernail to the string and must be parallel to the string, so that the sound that pops out is better.

[thumb shake]

Thumb rocking is the most commonly used finger rocking. Thumb shakes are mainly divided into four types according to different genres, different performance requirements and different learning stages:

1. Shake the wrist - lightly pinch the big finger with the index finger, press the base of the palm lightly on the head of the zither at the foot of the Qianyue Mountain as a fulcrum, use the wrist as the axis to drive the fingers, and do not clench the hand too tightly or stretch it too far. To keep relaxed and natural, you can use the index finger to pinch the big finger to adjust the volume of the finger shaking. This kind of finger shaking is suitable for students who are beginners to shake their fingers.

2. Pile rocking - the same as the basic principle of pressing wrist rocking, the difference is that it does not use the entire wrist as a fulcrum but uses the little finger as a bracket to place it on the bottom of the front beam where the strings are to be played. Pay attention to lowering your wrist. In the initial practice, when the thumb is split, you need to hit the lower string to play a stable role. When supporting your fingers, apply some force but do not need to rely on the string. Affects fingering flexibility.

3. Cantilevered wrist shake - on the basis of the previous two kinds of finger shaking, the fingering has been further liberated. The cantilevered wrist shaking does not require any support, and completely relies on the control and strength of the wrist to complete the finger shaking. This kind of finger shaking gets rid of Due to the limitation of the staking, it can fulfill the timbre requirements of any place from the former Yueshan to the yards, such as wandering and so on.

4. Quick support, split and shake - pluck the strings by the base joint of the big finger, that is, use the joint between the thumb and the palm as the moving point to drive the movement of all fingers. When playing, there is no need for the index finger to be next to the big finger, and all fingers are It is completely relaxed, maintaining the natural relaxed hand shape when playing. This method of shaking is generally used when playing long notes or long durations quickly (stubbing is usually done with the ring finger); it is not necessary to play some notes with changing durations and shorter durations. The quick holding and splitting method is one of the more difficult types of thumb shakes. The first three thumb shakes are mainly done with the power of the wrist, and this type of shaking is done through the power of the thumb joint. Certain effort.

When practicing thumb shaking, it can be practiced in stages, such as starting with four tones on each string and then gradually increasing to eight or sixteen tones until you can play the finger shaking continuously, evenly and quickly (except for the fast support. The general thumb shake starts with the split). When playing, the angle, depth and correct force of the fingernail touching the string have a direct impact on the sound and volume of the finger shake.

【Two-finger shake】

The big finger and the index finger are plucked and picked up and down at the same time, and the strings are alternately and rapidly plucked inward and outward. Two-finger rocking generally adopts the wrist rocking method. The big finger and the index finger are kept at the chord position of the third degree or close to the third degree, the finger joints are naturally bent and kept still, and the other three fingers are naturally relaxed. . Two-finger shaking can also be done with the big and middle fingers. Pinch the index finger lightly to control the stability and strength of the big finger. On the basis of the thumb dangling, the middle finger is added to jointly complete the effect of a continuous chord, but the difficulty increases a lot and requires frequent practice. There are also a few people who use the index and middle fingers to play the two-finger shake.

[snap shake]

When strumming the strings with the fingers of the right hand, press the thumb of the left hand on the sounding string or use the index finger and the big finger to gently pinch the string, and move it left and right between the front beam and the yard according to the requirements of the music. The buckle shake is mainly used to render the atmosphere or simulate the wind sound in the music (such as the music "Battle Typhoon").

[swipe]

The technique of combining the middle finger fast strumming in the octave with the big finger shaking. Sweeping is adding sweeping on the basis of shaking the finger, so be sure to practice the shaking finger first, and then add the sweeping of the middle finger rhythmically. (i.e., strum more than two strings quickly in the middle finger), and then gradually increase the speed and consistency of the sweep as you practice.

[Multi-finger swipe]

The finger swipe is different from the swipe we usually play. It is not based on the cantilever shake (because the cantilever shake is controlled and assisted by pinching the thumb with the index finger), the multi-finger swipe is to quickly support the split. Playing on the basis of shaking, he needs the index finger and middle finger, sometimes including the ring finger, to strum the strings in turn to combine with the shaking finger of the thumb. This fingering is very difficult so it is rarely used.
