There are many reasons for not playing the guzheng well, but a large part of people are because of their weak foundation. Many people must have asked how to lay a solid foundation. First, the foundation is divided into technical foundation and attitude foundation.

technical foundation

The technical basis includes a large part of the reasons, which may be different for everyone, such as the relaxed state of the fingers, the way of exertion, the knowledge of music theory, the rhythm, the stress and so on. Therefore, it is necessary to find their own professional teachers to formulate special basic skills teaching in the process of learning.

You can check yourself during basic exercises to see if each of your fingers can touch the strings independently, and also have a certain amount of weight and perception. When your brain is about to control your fingers to perform actions, will you be at a loss and unable to move?

You can try to lift your ring finger or little finger, and without any external support, you can actively use your brain to bend the first joint. I believe that many people think that the brain is uncomfortable, but the fingers are still disobedient, and they do not obey the instructions of the brain at all. In fact, in our daily life, our finger functions have not been well exercised. When we need it When it moves and exerts force, of course it cannot exert strength, so we must deliberately train the gravity of our fingers during the practice process, so that day after day, the state of the fingers will be better after sufficient exercise.

Attitude Basis

Another is the basis of attitude. When we were learning Guzheng in the early days, everyone must have different reasons for liking her, and they also like Guzheng very much, but we have been learning more and more time, and we have encountered more and more sheet music. , playing techniques are getting more and more difficult, and sometimes it will reach the bottleneck stage of playing, and even do not touch her for a long time, how can such an attitude work! In addition, the phenomenon of "bear breaking corn" is very common among many zheng learners. Many people have learned the latter piece, but lost the former piece. Whether it is analyzed by values or measured by learning effect, All can be said to be worthless.

In the process of learning, we should take the review of old songs as an important means of continuous improvement. Reviewing old songs can not only accumulate a large number of performance repertoires for us, but also train and improve our memory ability. More importantly, through review, we can gain new experience and understanding in those old repertoires, so as to continuously improve the technical ability of performance and the comprehension ability of music.

After all, in the process of learning Guzheng, nothing is easy, but as long as you stick to it, you will definitely see a qualitative leap!
