Faced with the question her daughter said, Yang Han did not rush to answer, but smiled and took her first: "Yiyi, do you know what is the difference between the piano and the guitar and violin?"

If it were to be the previous Yang Ruoyi, she might really be asked by her father, but the current Yang Ruoyi is no longer the little trainee who didn't know anything at the beginning, she has studied music theory for more than half a year, and she can answer it soon if she learns well:

"The guitar, violin are stringed instruments, and then the piano is percussion because it is made by the drum hammer striking the strings. ”

Yang Han didn't take his daughter to these classes in person, and in order not to put pressure on her, he rarely checked his homework, he didn't expect this Nizi to answer his answer so accurately.

The division of guitar and violin is not difficult, but the piano is different, and many people who have studied piano for many years will make a mistake, they will think of the strings under the top cover of the piano. But in fact, according to the sound principle of the piano, it should belong to the percussion instrument.

Of course, the mainstream of the game is that the piano is classified as a keyboard instrument, separated from stringed instruments and percussion instruments. But according to the traditional three-way classification of wind instruments, string instruments, and percussion instruments, there is no problem that the piano is a percussion instrument.

"That's right, but what Dad wants to say is not this, what Dad wants to say is that the difference between them lies in their portability!" Yang Han smiled, "Look at the guitar and violin, these are convenient to take out to perform, right? Many players will have their own exclusive instruments, and they usually carry them with them at work, but you haven't seen anyone carry a piano with them, right?"

"No, it's outrageous to bring a piano. Yang Ruoyi's eyes crooked and she laughed.

"So, whether you play the piano well or not depends on the tone of the piano you play. And an excellent pianist must also know how to control different brands and styles of pianos in performances around the world. Yang Han said with a smile.

Maybe other beginners don't have such a deep feeling as Yang Ruoyi, her extremely sharp ears can distinguish the timbre differences between the different pianos she has been exposed to, including those vocal teachers in "The Birth of a Girl Group".

It can be said that the sound of each piano is different, some are soft, some are dry, some are loud and thick, and some are like my own, crisp and loud, mellow and delicate......

"However, with so many different pianos, won't they all feel different when played?

"Of course it takes a lot of adaptability, but for a top pianist......"

Yang Ruoyi thought that his father was going to say that it was okay for these top pianists, but Yang Han just smiled and said: "The performance halls of their world tour are the best, and they will also be equipped with the best pianos in the world, and there are many of them, they can choose for themselves." ”

"Secondly, they will know very well what style of music they want to play, what kind of piano they need to match, and then during the rehearsal, they will also work with the tuner to have a run-in period, and the tuner will slowly adjust the appropriate according to his ideas!" Yang Han smiled, "In this way, even if the piano is not exactly the same as their own piano, the difference will not be too big, and it will not be too difficult to accept." ”

Yang Ruoyi nodded in a sudden realization, feeling that the useless knowledge had increased again......

Of course, the old father still has to show his hand in front of his daughter.

However, showing his hand in front of his daughter does not mean that Yang Han wants to give his daughter a show off her skills.

To be honest, he won't, his piano level can only be said to be decent, he hasn't gone through ten days and a half months of practice to show off his skills, let alone show off, he can't play it, and even some are more difficult, Yang Han may not be able to play it in his life.

But his perception of music is professional, after all, he was born in a professional class.

"Yiyi, did the teacher tell you about Liszt when he gave you a lesson?" Yang Han asked with a smile.

"Liszt? Yes, the teacher also said that he is the top star in the piano world!" Yang Ruoyi was interested, and described it to his father with a fluttering eyebrow, "It seems that he is 1.9 meters, tall and handsome, and then the teacher said that he went out to perform, and as soon as he took off his gloves and threw them down, the people below were crazy!"

"This Teacher Liao is really good, it's useless to talk about it!" Yang Han was stunned for a moment, and smiled angrily.

In fact, Liao Yansheng's teaching ability is still okay, he knows how to teach students according to their aptitude, and will adopt different lecture methods according to the characteristics of students, and he will also talk about the boring music history in an interesting way like Yi Zhongtian.

Yang Han just complained that Liao Yansheng told some gossip, but he didn't correct it, also because he knew that the story about Liszt was really like this!

Liszt is a rare existence among many talented pianists who is not forced to be forced or disabled! Moreover, there are more gossip stories than Yang Ruoyi said, such as when he was 22 years old, a countess left everything for him and eloped with him to Switzerland, and the two raised three children, but the marriage finally broke down, and then Liszt, who was in his thirties, fell in love with a noble princess, and then began a poignant love story against religion and tsarist power......

It can be said that Liszt is definitely a combination of affection and affection, which can be called the Li Zongsheng of the nineteenth century......

Of course, Yang Han didn't want to talk so much about Liszt's gossip with his daughter, he wanted to start from Liszt's piano music works and talk about the charm of the piano!

"In fact, many people have a misunderstanding about Liszt's works, because when they mention Liszt, they think of two words in their minds: show off his skills!

Yang Ruoyi has studied music theory for more than half a year, and now she will not just listen, she can discuss it with her father: "I know this, "Zhong", this piece is said to be the most difficult! Dad, is it true?"

"'The Bell' can't be said to be the hardest. Yang Han said with a smile.

"Then Dad, can you play?" Yang Ruoyi blinked her eyes as clear as a lake, as if looking at her father innocently.

“......”

Yang Han said with a smile: "Dad can't play, but you can learn it and strive to be able to play this song in the future!"

Let's get back to business.

"But in fact, the value of Liszt's works is not just to show off his skills, not just these exaggerated things, we often ignore the value of another level of his works because of the difficulty of his repertoire, that is, musicality! Musicality, this is more difficult than skills, more difficult than simple show-offs!" Yang Han said, taking out a tablet from the side.

He can't play such a complex repertoire, but there are many videos of top pianists playing on the Internet.

"Today Dad takes you to enjoy a piece called 'Sonata in B minor,' which Liszt composed when he was forty-one years old and which the piano world calls a touchstone. Why is it a litmus test? Because those who can play "The Bell" are not necessarily called pianists, but those who can play this piece can really be said to be good pianists!"
