Practice the piano eight hours a day is a famous player

The piano who practices four hours a day is a professional player.

Practicing the piano for two hours a day is a high level enthusiast

Half an hour a day is better than no practice at all.

Occasionally practicing for half an hour a week is the same as not practicing.

The ten thousand hours rule of guzheng

So students who practice occasionally should not ask their teachers why they are slow and ineffective. There is a ruler on it. Use it to measure yourself.

Learning music, we can't deny that talent does matter, but even if you have high talent, becoming a performer is a distant dream if you can't keep practicing.

Wang Zhongshan, a famous performer, never stops practicing during his busy tour. He has to make sure to practice two hours a day. "If you don't practice, you're chronically suicidal!" he said.

In fact, learning the guzheng, the greatest talent is to know how to work hard!

Yuan Sha once said: "I practice hard for more than ten hours a day, and finally the world sums up all my sweat with the word genius."

Frozen to death is not a cold day. Many people envy the superb skills of Guzheng masters and long to have their own talents, but ignore the huge efforts behind them. If talent is lucky, the harder you work, the luckier you are! Chinese and foreign masters are no exception.

Teachers don't always talk about the word "genius", they always tell parents and kids to practice the piano well. People always like to overestimate the role of talent in life and give themselves an excuse not to work hard.

I very much agree with the "10,000-hour rule": as long as after 10,000 hours of training, anyone can change from ordinary to extraordinary, as long as we work hard, we can also become the eyes of others and become experts in this industry.

But the 10,000 hour rule is the premise, because in addition to hard work and hard work, we need to master the practical methods of science, otherwise you may just back off, or even back off.

Proper deliberate practice usually requires four steps

1. Deliberate practice tasks should be of moderate difficulty and should be practiced with purpose.

Don't be too ambitious. The game works for your level. Every piece of music or etude has a technical or musical problem that needs to be solved. Don't blindly covet something bigger. Everyone knows that if you come across a teacher who teaches you to play fifth grade one year, don't hesitate to leave right away.

2. Exercise results should be received and calibrated in a timely manner.

Insist on attending classes every week, and don't ask for leave at will. Ask your teacher to help you point out your shortcomings, so you can improve each week, and the longer you procrastinate, the more lives will be wasted. Many students often take time off work. They are good at making mistakes. It's hard to correct them.

3. Repeat enough exercises

Repeat, repeat, let your fingers remember this action memory, to a certain extent, it is like playing automatically. If a piece of music is to be played completely, smoothly, and correctly, it has to take a lot of effort, and there are no shortcuts.

4. Continuous revision in practice

Don't practice stupidly. Practice the piano with your brain and correct mistakes instantly. Ten thousand hours will only make you practice more and more mistakes if you keep repeating them. In addition, it is also necessary to practice the piano, identify difficult passages and difficult phrases in tunes, and practice alone to overcome difficulties. Teachers often say that piano practice and senior snacks mean that.
