Harmonica course

1, spit note: the tongue stretches forward, blocking a breath, such as a triplet.

2. Glissando: In the process of music, there is no direct jump between the two sounds, but a connection is made by playing countless pitches in the middle of the two sounds.

3. Hand shaking: It is realized by changing the vibration space of hands and closing them one by one.

4. Wawa sound: On the basis of hand vibrato, press the sound to restore the natural sound at the moment when hands are open.

5.Bend):bend means bending. Bending means changing the internal structure of the oral cavity, so that the airflow changes when it passes through the reed.

6. Vibrato: Fast switching between two adjacent holes.

7. Tongue blocking: The tongue blocks the hole and moves away at the moment of blowing or sucking to achieve a specific accompaniment sound.

Vomiting: When playing, the tongue makes sounds like "ta", "da" and "ka", which makes the sound short and powerful.

9. teeth Vivrato: through the slight occlusion of the upper and lower teeth, the airflow is controlled to achieve changes.

10 throat vibrato: controlling the airflow through the throat to form a long and undulating sound effect, which is used to modify long sounds.

1 1. Gastric vibrato: By controlling the air flow through the abdomen and part of the throat, you can get a faster frequency than the throat vibration.

12, octave: Play two notes with octave difference at the same time to achieve the harmony effect.

13, * * * (chord): A tone consisting of three or more * * * tones.

14, Trains/Chugging: that is, porous conversion, and the bass area is used for imitation.

15. Tongue-covering method: used to punch and break * * *. The mouth contains three holes, the tongue blocks the other two holes, and then the tongue opens.

16. Overblowing: used to obtain higher notes and semitones than natural sounds in one to six holes.

17, over-pumping: in seven to ten holes, the same as over-blowing.

18, double play: a small amount of airflow is controlled through an adjacent higher pitch hole, because the general high pitch area receives less airflow, and a fuller timbre will be obtained.

(2) Introduction and extended reading of harmonica course

Each hole of the blues harmonica is equipped with a pair of reeds, and the player makes one sound when exhaling and another sound when inhaling; Chromatic harmonica is equipped with two pairs of reeds in each hole, and there are keys to cooperate with breathing to make four different sounds. However, the adjacent upper and lower squares of polyphonic harmonica have the same pitch, and they play different sounds by changing holes and sucking. The harmonica was invented by Germany in the19th century. It is based on some organs brought from Asia to Europe.

Harmonica performance can be highly artistic, and skilled players can create various effects by changing the pronunciation of reeds and the pressure of airflow. Harmonicas are mostly used in blues and country folk songs, but also in rock music. With the appearance of chromatic harmonica and 10 hole harmonica, the harmonica can also play classical music and some jazz music.

In addition, serious composers are also interested in harmonica and write music for it, including the Harmonica and Band Suite by D Mi Yue and the Romance of Harmonica and Band by Vaughan Williams.

Harmonica course

First of all, it depends on what kind of harmonica you need. Harmonicas are divided into ordinary harmonica and echo harmonica, with holes 16, 2 1 and 24, as well as stress, tenor, low stress, bass and chromatic harmonica. It is recommended that you use a 24-hole or 2 1 hole harmonica as an entry piano. Other harmonicas with 16 holes may have some learning difficulties. Preparations for playing the harmonica

1. Lubrication

2. Grasping method

The reed was blown away by the wind.

Step 4 breathe, breathe

5. Control of Qi (long sound, short sound)

* Remember to air dry gently after blowing and put it back in the box.

2. Some points to pay attention to when changing harmonica:

1. First come first served.

Come first, then listen.

The best way is to recite the music and blow by feeling! )

2. Pay attention to the posture of holding the harmonica.

You can tune it yourself, but always avoid that the upper and lower harmonicas are too far apart to change harmonicas.

At the same time, let the upper and lower harmonica stick to each other, without knocking each other and making any sound!

3. Change harmonica smoothly (with continuous breathing)

Don't have a sudden pop-up sound (don't suddenly turn it up or down when changing the sound)

4. Pay attention to the purity of timbre (no noise)

Suggestion: If you don't need to use "strong", if you want pure timbre.

You'd better try to shrink your mouth into an O-shape.

Use a little force on both sides of the corners of the mouth, and the lips feel a little tight.

5. In addition to (4), there are two points to pay attention to when changing harmonica quickly.

A. use the "remember location" method

That is, when to change the sound, write down the position order.

Change harmonica by "sense of position" when playing.

B.it's better to change to a "slippery" harmonica.

Put your lips flat on the two harmonicas (be careful to use a little force on your lips)

6. Pay attention to the correct speed and beat when changing harmonica.

Don't delay the beat by changing the harmonica.

The emphasis of the first note in each bar can help you master the beat. )

7. Pay attention to the peace and elegance of facial expressions when playing harmonica!

Harmonica is easier to learn. As long as you have confidence and perseverance, you can succeed in self-study.

To buy an accented harmonica, first, according to the above instructions, blow out 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 1, 3, 5, which means blowing, and other sounds mean inhaling. After these midrange transpositions can be played steadily, I began to expand to the bass and treble parts one by one. At the same time, I began to learn to play simple songs, such as Dongfanghong. So practice for an hour or two every day, and it will be effective in a month. You should have a good sense of music, so as long as you can sing, you can blow it out.

2. To learn skills, there are books to learn harmonica in the bookstore. Buy one and practice.

3. The use of breath, learn to inhale and exhale, nose and mouth can inhale and exhale at the same time. This is very important.

4. At least you have to be a symbol.

I can't finish a sentence or two here, so I'd better buy a book and read it myself.

Besides the course "Top Ten Masters Teach You to Learn Harmonica", are there any introductory courses for beginners?

For beginners, I think it's good to copy ten famous teachers and teach you how to play the piano. There are courses from basic introduction to intermediate to advanced. Recommended by China Musicians Association, this course is a standard course for harmonica learning and grading. This course has helped hundreds of thousands of harmonica lovers master it skillfully. In addition, Shi's harmonica course is also good. Shi is a rare harmonica theorist and performer in China. Standard harmonica playing method, harmonica broadcasting teaching material and self-study harmonica playing method are also good self-study teaching materials. For beginners, the tutorial is one aspect. I think the most important thing is to work hard and practice in study. No matter how good the tutorial is, it is useless. Many Xiao Bai (including me, hehe) started with the old-fashioned blowing method, because it is easier to practice scales, while the new blowing method requires the cooperation of the tongue, which is difficult for beginners to master. The general feeling is: the new blowing method is very labor-saving and easy, the saliva is difficult to stick to the piano, and the timbre blown out is round, powerful and easy.
