Introduction to guzheng elementary knowledge

1. Basic structure:

The unified specifications of guzheng are: 1.63m, 2 1 string. The panel of guzheng is mostly paulownia in Lankao, Henan Province, with a white and loose frame. There are mahogany, old mahogany (Burmese rosewood), golden nanmu, rosewood and other precious wood. On the side plate of the guzheng, and the sound quality of the guzheng depends on the panel and strings.

2. Sound group:

Guzheng is divided into four groups. Treble 1, treble 12356, alto 12356(do re mi sol la), bass 12356, bass 12356.

3. Playing skills:

The traditional common playing method is to pluck the strings with the four fingers of the right hand, that is, the big finger, the middle finger and the ring finger, so as to play the melody and master the rhythm. The left-handed playing method also adapts to the tension of the strings and controls the change of the left chord sound of the Zheng column, thus adjusting the pitch and improving the melody.

(1) Extended reading of Guzheng course

Zheng is often used for solo, duet, instrumental ensemble and accompaniment of song and dance, opera and Quyi. Because of its wide range and beautiful timbre, it is called "the king of all kinds of music" and "Oriental piano".

Tone accuracy is one of the most important links in learning guzheng performance. On the one hand, beginners need to receive strict auditory training, be able to accurately sing and listen to the pentatonic and heptatonic tones of various tones, and at the same time, they need to study the tuning methods of guzheng hard, so as to gradually tune accurately.

In the creation of various guzheng music, the author will consciously or unconsciously show his views and value judgments on human social life in his works, and students will perceive the life ideal, artistic pursuit, value judgment and ethical attitude expressed in his works when they appreciate it.

What courses are offered in Guzheng major?

There is no professional guzheng course in the Conservatory of Music, so you need to find your own tutor to pay for it, not tuition.

It's all theoretical. Now, as a freshman, my major is solfeggio, basic music theory and introduction to art, so I opened these three theoretical courses and the history of China music.

Supplementing solfeggio and solfeggio is to find a teacher to tutor alone. Basic music theory and practical solfeggio courses are both university textbooks published by Southwest Normal University Press, which are difficult enough.

To teach arranger, we must first learn music harmony. It is still early.

You can buy your own staff according to the video. For example, Tommy's collection of modern Zheng music and piano music are also acceptable.

Ⅳ Is it better for beginners to attend one-on-one classes or learn well in college?

One-on-one courses are good for beginners. One-on-one class teacher will speak very carefully and directly. Usually, teachers will teach internal classes by hand, and will teach the speed of courses according to students' understanding ability, thus eliminating the situation that fast students have to wait slowly and slow can't keep up with fast. Beginners usually pay great attention to students' basic skills practice, strictly demand the standard of hand shape, and the progress of class will be different according to everyone's situation, so one-on-one class is better than large class.

Ⅳ What do you need to do at every stage of learning Guzheng, from introduction to performer?

The enlightenment stage of learning the piano is very important to the whole learning process of guzheng. Effective, high-quality and efficient teaching is the key to lay a solid foundation for Rong Guzheng. For younger children, parents should have a high sense of responsibility. In addition to accompanying, encouraging and urging children, we should also find suitable guzheng teachers for children. For the introductory stage, multimedia-assisted teaching helps children to start with their interests. A good course will consider the integration of China traditional cultural elements, the combination of classic poems, traditional customs, national festivals and other cultural elements, and the form of animation, so that children can be correctly guided in the enlightenment stage.

The guzheng instructor at this stage should have good playing ability and level. In addition, the choice of teaching materials at this stage is also very important. Excellent instructors will also make a basic design for the teaching progress of Zheng learners, and further refine the requirements of practice methods, practice time and specific notes, rhythm, strength, timbre and expression, and strengthen the corresponding courses such as solfeggio, listening and ear practice.

ⅵ What are the introductory courses of Guzheng?

You can directly choose the national studies test book for the introductory course, and the first-level etudes and music are very simple. If the child is young, you can choose children's guzheng books.

ⅶ What can I learn from ten lessons of one-on-one guzheng course?

Hello, parents and children, learning ten classes is basically just the beginning. Playing etudes is not the basis of many skills. The most important thing in learning musical instruments is to lay a good foundation. The basis of guzheng is to learn the basic fingering first, then the left hand, and then the left and right hands cooperate with the teacher. During the teaching period, every class should be permeated with music theory knowledge. The teacher said that students' practice is very important on the one hand, not that the more classes they take, the more skills they master. You should learn new content on the basis of good practice and mastery after class. Generally speaking, once a week, you can practice the piano for at least one hour every day. You can let your children see if others play the piano and see if they like it. I am a guzheng teacher myself. I hope it helps you.
