How to practice guitar beginners' left hand?

Many guitar beginners always can't master the left-handed string pressing, and they don't know how to practice it well. Let me tell you how to practice the guitar beginner's left hand. Welcome to read!

Guitar beginners' left-hand exercise (1) moves laterally: this means that the fingers of the left hand do not change their positions, but move between ① and ③ strings. Lateral movement is mainly the movement of hands off arms, and fingers keep moving up and down in the direction perpendicular to the strings. At this time, the angle between the arm and wrist changes, while the left thumb does not move longitudinally behind the fingerboard.

(2) Longitudinal movement: also known as changing the handle. Before moving the handle vertically, fully understand the finger transfer? And then what? Jump your fingers? Two different concepts. ? Transfer the newspaper? The action is that the fingers leave the strings alternately in the fingering process, rather than at the same time, that is, the fingers that press the strings do not exceed the fingers that press the previous note. ? Jump your fingers? Action refers to the process of moving fingers, all fingers are off-string, that is, the finger that presses the string exceeds the finger that presses the previous note. ?

The above discussion can be used for reference in the unified study of changing the handle. Generally speaking, when changing the handle and fingers, you should pay attention to the following three points:

① The duration of the last note in the previous position should be fully maintained, and the finger shift should not be ahead or behind; Move your fingers on the fingerboard simply and neatly to avoid making noise. The action is decisive and accurate, which shortens the silent time in the process of changing the handle and pressing the string, so that the listener can't notice the movement of his fingers during the performance, thus ensuring the continuity and coherence of the music, just like playing in the same position.

② Before changing the handle, the index finger should move to the position where you want to change the handle.

(3) when changing the handle up and down, the thumb should actively cooperate to eat the command string. Although there are few exercises specifically for changing the handle, the reason is that the practice of changing the handle has been included in the general exercise.

In addition, some chord conversion and connection exercises in different positions are actually good hand-changing exercises.

The left-hand exercise introduces the technical essentials of 1 in detail, such as pressing strings and leaving strings.

Fingers should be as close to the string as possible when pressing the string, and the direction should be vertical when pressing and leaving the string, so as to avoid noise as much as possible. Especially when playing bass strings, pay more attention to the range of action, and don't lift your fingers too high when you leave the strings.

2, change the handle technology

The simple induction of changing the handle is nothing more than changing the handle and jumping the handle.

Don't think that changing the handle is only about hands. In fact, in the process of changing the handle, the elbow of the left hand is the starting point of force, and then the strength and exertion of the thumb will be reflected.

Therefore, correct basic posture is very important.

To change the handle skillfully, you must be familiar with the melody. In this way, which finger to take first when changing the handle, how to make it compact and save time, etc., is really not a day's work.

3. Decomposition.

In addition to its unique melody and timbre, the guitar is also a harmonic instrument.

Whether learning classical music, folk songs or electric guitars, we should attach importance to the study of basic knowledge of music.

In music major, in addition to the performance and singing of musical instruments, there are also the basics of music theory, acoustics, solfeggio, listening, music history, music appreciation and so on.

Among them, acoustics is the basic course of research and application.

Some guitar lovers still don't know what the melody, harmony, musical structure and musical background are after playing music for several years.

There are two types. One is. Ensemble, that is, simultaneous pronunciation, is usually recorded in vertical lines, so it is also called column. The second is that the sounds are not emitted at the same time, but in a certain order.

This is called decomposition. Also called arpeggio.

study There is no unique method, only practice and listen more.

When decomposing, I usually play without strings, except that P refers to leaning strings, and try to stop.

When changing, try to use the extended time difference of the sound generated by the previous group to convert.

When doing string-free exercises, pay attention to i. Finger should exert force on the big joint, pluck the strings downward, and don't hook the strings upward.

4. Horizontal pressing technology

Holding down four or six strings at the same time is called large transverse pressure, and holding down two or three strings at the same time is called small transverse pressure. Small horizontal pressing can generally be done with the last two joints of the index finger.

In music, c, B and B are often abbreviated, followed by numbers.

Please pay attention to the following technical points:

(1) The chord pressing point should be as close to the product as possible, so that the noise is low and labor is saved.

(2) Generally, fingers are used to hold strings, and the same is true.

(3) Thumb should be at the back and side, and exert proper force.

For beginners, horizontal pressing will make your fingers ache, but you will be fine if you stick to it.

Step 5 knead the strings

This is the most basic and commonly used guitar playing technique.

That is, after playing a certain note, the finger pressing the string does not leave immediately and continues to rub on the string.

Generally use the middle finger and ring finger, and a few use the index finger and little finger.

Because the index finger is strong but lacks flexibility; The flexibility of the little finger is not only slightly lacking, but also insufficient; Of course, this is not absolute.

It depends on different tunes, different walks and different people.

The contact point should not be close to the timbre, generally about half of the timbre, so the effect is good.

6. Scale exercises

This is the most basic but also the most important training in guitar foundation.

It is usually difficult to express in words.

But remember the following points: (1) Don't draw quickly at first, but pay attention to the interval of the sound and try to be consistent unless the score has special requirements.

(2) Pay attention to the force of the left thumb to match the walking posture.

(3) Be sure to remember that your fingers should be as vertical as possible when pressing and leaving strings, but don't be stiff, such as walking near the bass strings in the high-pitched area. If you measure it with a ruler, maybe no master can? Vertical? .

7. Finger strength training

The so-called finger strength training, half refers to the little finger, because half of the other fingers can have enough strength.

I used to practice some tunes by myself, but I often deliberately rubbed, slipped and trembled with my little finger, or I should have played with other fingers, and sometimes I used my little finger more.

In fact, it is impossible to finish this arduous task in a short time.

But the reason why I emphasize here is that beginners should pay attention to it long ago and rely on time and experience to achieve their goals.

Among the top skills of the left hand, there is playing, so beginners must attach importance to finger training from the beginning.

Practice method: practice fluent voice.

Use your little finger more often, and you can be a little mean in the case of deviation.

For example, why can't a little romance be allowed to dry at the beginning? This is not a performance.

8. Slippery voice

Many songs often use Tao's technique.

Slippery is usually represented by a diagonal line connecting two sounds.

Slippery can usually be divided into two types: Legato refers to the finger sliding to the second tone after the first tone is over, and the second tone does not need to be played again, but is extended by the lingering sound of the slip.

Slip means that when the finger of the left hand slides to the second tone, the right hand dials it again to pop up the second tone.

It's simple.

However, it should be noted that (1) should be started slowly to prevent fingers from being damaged.

Although it is a nylon rope, it may hurt the tender hand.

Especially steel wire strings.

(2) Grasp the balance.

Practice method: Listen and watch more.

9. Smooth voice

Also called? Legato? Some people call it? Tik Tok? .

It is the basis of various decorative sounds of guitar.

This is actually a relatively advanced skill.

I was depressed because I didn't master it well.

The premise is how to master the rhythm and melody, plus the strength of the fingers, especially the little finger.

Both are indispensable.

There is a special vibrato as a prelude to romance.

It is also related to the right hand.

Because it is not handled well, there will be a sense of disconnection.

Practicing fluent voice is also very helpful to improve the strength, agility and control of each finger in the left hand.

About integrals? Tapping Legato? And then what? Plucking and Legato? Two types

(1) Dial the first tone with your right hand, and tap the strings with your left hand to make the second tone.

(2) The right hand dials the first sound, and the left hand dials the string to make the second sound.

There are triplets and triplets, and there are longer triplets, but the basic principle is the same.

My experience is that you must pass your fingers first. This is the first step.

10, mute

Anyone who has played a little romance knows this skill.

There are many methods; Some right hands immediately touch the strings with their thumbs after playing the strings; Some right hands immediately touch the string with the palm edge after playing the string; Some use the little finger of the left hand to straighten and touch the string; If it is difficult, it is difficult to solve the problem of cooperation between hands and fingers.

For example, with the little finger, will it be messy to move immediately after silencing? Slow down and it won't be chaotic, but it will affect the overall effect? It shouldn't be difficult to overcome with a teacher.

If there is no teacher, you can only rely on more audio-visual and more thinking.

Guitar playing, like many musical instruments, attaches great importance to overall coordination.

The correct way to press the strings with your left hand is 1. Stand up: It means that after forming an arc from the arm, wrist, back of hand to each finger, the terminal joints of the fingers should stand up in the direction perpendicular to the fingerboard as far as possible, and press the strings down with the fingertips. It is easy for anyone with basic physical knowledge to understand that only when the force is perpendicular to the panel can the force of pressing the string be the smallest and the most labor-saving. If the end joint can't press the string vertically, it will not only make the force stronger, but also make the left hand easily tired and nervous, and often push or pull the string to one side, resulting in pitch deviation. Generally speaking, fingers 2 and 3 are easy to stand up, and fingers 1 and 4 are not easy to stand up. Moreover, 1, 4 means that it is difficult to stand up because of physiological relationship, but you should try to stand up, press the strings and set high standards for yourself. As time goes on, it will gradually improve until it is completely erected. Please practice more.
