In the afternoon, Chen Xiao did not go to class, but went to a music classroom.

There was no one else in the classroom, only him and Gu Jianlin, and Gu Jianlin wanted to teach him the piano in person.

Although he said that he didn't know anything about the piano, Mr. Gu was still very interested.

"The easiest way to learn the piano is to familiarize yourself with all the tones of the piano and then practice fingering.

Generally speaking, if a beginner is not able to master the piano practice method correctly in the first time, and only thinks about blindly practicing hard, it often has little effect, and even causes disgust, so it is particularly important to master the correct playing method. ”

Although Mr. Gu usually teaches graduate students, he also teaches high-level knowledge.

However, he attaches great importance to the basic training of the piano.

"Have you ever touched a piano before?"

Chen Xiao shook his head.

"Then you go and familiarize yourself with every key of the piano, press each key several times, and let's start the first step: that is, to get familiar with the tone. ”

Chen Xiao could only sit in front of the piano and press each key in turn.

His memory was amazing, and he basically pressed every button twice to get familiar with its position and tone, and then he stopped and looked at Gu Jianlin.

"What's the matter, are you familiar with everything?"

Chen Xiao nodded again: "Familiarize yourself with it." ”

"Well, you don't have to expect to memorize all the tones of the piano all at once, it takes you to memorize it slowly, even into an instinctive memory of your body, so that you can play it on the piano as soon as you hear a piece in passing. ”

Chen Xiao nodded, thinking deeply, he only memorized the tone of the piano in his mind now, but he was still far from turning it into his physical instinct.

He has also watched a lot of programs, in which those pianists only need to listen to a piece of music, no matter how complicated it is, as long as they listen to it once, they can play it directly.

Then, Gu Jianlin said directly: "Then you can play a tune with the piano, remember, it can't be what you have heard, you must use the tone of the piano to combine it on the spot, so that you can see your sensitivity to music." ”

"Huh, Mr. Gu...... Isn't that too fast?"

He had just pressed the button twice, and Gu Jianlin asked him to compose a song directly on the spot, did he think highly of him.

Teacher Gu shook his head: "You misunderstood, the tune I said, just need to be coherent, you can just play something, but if you can connect it, it's okay to play it wrong, so it's convenient for me to tell you the next lesson......"

Chen Xiao was stunned.

"It was meant to be used as a false demonstration......"

Now he was relieved.

'Ding~'

'Click~'

Chen Xiao pressed it a few times on the piano now, frowned, and it seemed that he couldn't connect at all.

'Dingdong~Dingdong~'

Chen Xiao felt a little familiar, and started to press it again, and sang along with his mouth:

"Twinkle twinkle twinkle sparkle...... The sky is full of little stars......

Hang it in heaven and let it shine...... He is our little eye~~

......”

Chen Xiao pressed very slowly, but this song "Twinkle Twinkle Twinkle" definitely doesn't need too fast techniques, and the keys are rarely used, it is simply a special piano score for primary school students, and he doesn't have any pressure at all after playing a tune.

This is all about playing the piano.

It seems to be pretty cool, and it has more style and temperament than singing.

Although he played a simple piano piece that couldn't be simpler, he felt a great sense of accomplishment, and he didn't expect that he would be able to play the piano so soon.

And this is when Gu Jianlin didn't start teaching by hand.

Gu Jianlin next to him also widened his eyes and was very surprised: "This is what you created casually just now?

Although Chen Xiao played very simply, Gu Jianlin was still very surprised, after all, Chen Xiao had never touched the piano before.

It's already good to be able to play without being out of line, let alone a complete little song.

Chen Xiao realized that he seemed to be pretending to be forced in front of Teacher Gu.

It's okay in front of other people, but you can't pretend to be forced in front of Teacher Gu, otherwise you will be directly asked to show your stuff in the next second.

"Uh...... Teacher Gu, this is a children's song that I thought of before, I played it twice just now, and I just remembered it, otherwise I will play it again, this time I don't need to think of the music score before. ”

Teacher Gu waved his hand: "No need, the first time I touched the piano, I was able to play the tune completely, which has exceeded my expectations, but your fingering and rhythm have big problems."

I'll teach you fingering first, it's like typing on a keyboard, you have to have the right fingering first, and then you can get your fingers flying on the piano keys.

If you make a mistake, the rest of the training will often be half the effort. ”

Chen Xiao nodded, indicating that he knew.

Gu Jianlin asked Chen Xiao to sit on the side and sat on the front of the piano by himself: "I'll show you the piano fingering next, you can record it with your mobile phone, and you can follow my fingering practice if you practice it in the early stage." ”

If it was ancient times, the teacher would definitely say, "I'll only demonstrate it once, and how much you can remember depends on your understanding."

But now is the era of intelligence, and you can watch a video as many times as you want.

Although Chen Xiao can remember it after watching it once, he can't expose it too perverted, so he followed Mr. Gu's advice and turned on the mobile phone video.

"When playing the piano, you need to consider the division of labor between the left and right hands, the smooth shuttle between the fingers, the span range of the fingers, and the degree of bending of the fingers.

When you need to play the keys from left to right continuously, you can use your thumb to weave through the other four fingers to achieve a continuous rhythmic melody, such as ......"

Teacher Gu played it directly on the piano, and the tune was very smooth, but it was played very slowly, just to make it easier for Chen Xiao to see clearly.

His four fingers flow on the piano, and his thumb shuttles between his fingers from time to time, connecting the whole piece.

After playing it a few times in a row, Teacher Gu stopped and looked at Chen Xiao: "How is it, do you see it clearly?" ”

Chen Xiao said honestly: "I see it clearly, but I need to practice." ”

Teacher Gu nodded: "Next, if you want to play the melody from right to left, you can play it with your thumb shuttling from the end of your little finger to the end of your index finger, which can be coherent or jumping.

Like this......

Or ...... like this"

"This is required when the distance between the keys to be played is greater than 5 keys......

In the following time, Gu Jianlin demonstrated four or five basic situations to Chen Xiao, which are all situations that you will often encounter when playing the piano.

In the end, Chen Xiao was asked to test them one by one.

Although Chen Xiao had already remembered everything, the characteristics of his handbroken hands still prevented him from succeeding.

However, Mr. Gu was still very happy, Chen Xiao had clearly remembered the main points he said, and the next thing he needed was continuous practice to improve his finger proficiency.

This requires personal diligence.

"I'll give you the key to this classroom, if no one here comes to class, you can come and use the piano, and you'd better take a little more time to come and practice the rest of the time!"

Gu Jianlin finally solemnly admonished him, and then handed him a key.
