Matters needing attention in guzheng performance

When there are 4(fa) or 7(si) notes in the music, you can only press 3 or 6 strings on the left string section of the Zheng code with your left hand to increase its tension. The specific method of playing four tones is to press three strings at a distance of about 1 decimeter from the Zheng code, and then play this string with your right hand to play four tones. Similarly, when playing 7 notes, you can also press the 6-note string on the left side of the Zheng code with your left hand.

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.
