Generally, traditional erhu teaching is not targeted to adults, and often applies children's teaching methods to adults. But it is impossible for an adult to learn the piano like a child, and it takes more than ten years to slowly hone it. What adults pay attention to is: in a relatively short period of time, they can achieve their desire to express music through erhu. If adults are taught and trained as children, it is conceivable that few people can persevere. Below I summarize three key points:

(1) Slow training

Adults are prone to irritability when practicing the piano, and practice more at the original speed and less slowly, which leads to many problems, such as wrong tone, sound leakage, incoherence of difficult segments and so on. This is the number one taboo for adults to practice the piano. Slow practice is the foundation of overcoming all technical obstacles. It is like a "magnifying glass" that magnifies all the details in the music, so that learners can pay attention to every subtlety of the music, especially for the difficult pieces in the music, whether it is No matter what kind of difficulty, slow training is the only way to go. If an adult can practice slowly and carefully with great patience, it will be easier to reap the learning effect.

(2) Focused exercises

When adults practice the piano, they often play a piece of music from beginning to end over and over again. In fact, the blind and unfocused practice method is really "more effective with less effort". A good practice method is to decompose the music and practice it with a focus and purpose, and break down the difficult points and parts. It must be noted that practice is not equal to playing. The purpose of practice is to overcome difficulties, develop correct playing habits, find the desired timbre and touch strings, and so on.

(3) Practice without music and without piano

This is a kind of practice method in which learners meditate on the music they play, as if seeing the score and hearing the sound. It is important because it is through this meditation that the music played by the learner is truly his own, the language of his own mind.

In a word, adults should be aware of their own strengths and weaknesses in piano learning, be good at developing their own strengths, and make up for their deficiencies to the greatest extent with acquired efforts. To deepen the understanding of the work through repeated chewing, this is the real integration of music into life, so that one can comprehend the classics and taste the colorful life in the world of music.
