1. Piano Grade 10

After reading my book, a friend asked me, is the piano grade 10 really useless as you said, just a piece of paper?

I can only answer him, except for the extra points in the college entrance examination, it doesn't seem to have any special effect. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

As mentioned in the book, the full name of the piano examination is called the piano amateur examination, and this amateur examination is actually differentiated, this does not have a unified national standard for the time being, and the piano examination held by various regions and organizations (such as the provincial music association examination, XX university examination, etc.), the level is not the same, and there are three more popular and authoritative piano examinations in China:

1. Music Examination of the National Musicians Association; 2. Piano examination of the Central Conservatory of Music; 3. Examination of Shanghai Musicians Association.

Personally, I think that the exams of the latter two are more weighty in China, because they not only test piano performance, but also test music-related knowledge, basic music theory, as well as ear training and sight-singing. Ear training is simply "listening and writing notes", and sight-singing is "watching notes and singing"; One tests the heart and ears, and the other tests the heart and eyes.

And the statement of "piano grade ten" is also inaccurate, the piano examination of the Central Conservatory of Music is the highest amateur grade nine; The highest level of the Shanghai Musicians Association examination is the "performance level", that is, a "performance level" is added to the tenth level, a total of eleven levels.

However, no matter what, no matter which exam is the same, it does not affect the career of a pianist, and the admission to the conservatory will not depend on whether you have an examination certificate.

Are there any League of Legends players among the readers? If so, it's easy to understand if you explain it this way: piano level 10 is actually equivalent to League of Legends' summoner level 30, and after reaching level 30, it's equivalent to just starting your game path, and there are qualifying matches and the like waiting for you later. Of course, some players with high talent have reached level 30 and may prove that they have gold, platinum or even higher after qualifying, while some players, silver and bronze, are all possible.

In addition, there is a more weighty, influential in China, is the "British Royal Music Grading Examination", commonly known as the "Emperor Examination", this examination has a certain effect, is able to obtain world recognition, the Emperor Examination is more difficult, the content of the examination is more, and in foreign universities or other aspects, there will be a certain amount of extra points, the role is relatively large, with the Emperor Examination Certificate, in front of professionals even have a certain amount of capital (of course, in fact, not much).

However, the Emperor's examination is essentially a piece of paper, but it is just a more advanced piece of paper.

Whether at home or abroad, professional pianists do not go to the exam and do not need such a certificate to prove their level. To take the exam, they are also in the stage of piano children.

So, when you meet someone who plays the piano and you ask him how many levels the piano is, it can be an awkward question. See the book for details.

The phrase "I am a grade 10 piano" may be able to scare many people, but in front of professionals, he will most likely return with a smile.

Second, the so-called claim is the most difficult

There are two pieces in the piano world, which are known as the most difficult. The first is "Petrushka", which is mentioned in the book and is known as the most difficult solo piece; The other is rightly called the most difficult, Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 3.

The so-called solo, as the name suggests, is only an instrument like a piano, while a concerto is generally a concert between a piano and an orchestra. So, in terms of "being called the most difficult", the Piano Concerto No. 3 is the most difficult, even more difficult than Petrushka.

However, some readers are about to ask, what do you mean by a "claim"?

Actually, it's quite simple. Composition is a matter that has been updated from generation to generation, such as Xiaowen me, I was in a good mood on the Internet today, and suddenly I wrote a piano piece, which is extremely tricky, not for art or music, but for the sake of difficulty, to write an unprecedented difficult song, which is definitely the most difficult in the world. However, does this song have any meaning? Does it work? Does anyone agree? No. In the same way, other composers can do the same.

For example, the British composer Michael Finisi wrote an "English Country-Tunes", which is rare and extremely tricky, requiring the player to play with various body parts, such as the forehead, such as the palms, such as the elbows. There is also a certain search that appears on a certain search, what six people can play "Waltz of Death", what four million notes of so-and-so song, etc., are all like this, and there is no special significance.

In addition, in the difficult song about the piano, a reader asked me how difficult it was to beat the black pianist in the piano fight in the movie "The Pianist at Sea" in 1900. Let's put it this way, the toccata is not played by one person, but by two people, and it is absolutely impossible to do it by one person, but it is a movie, and in order to highlight the mastery of the protagonist 1900, such an exaggerated technique can be used.

Regarding the difficult music of the piano, it is not very credible in a certain encyclopedia. But everyone is very enthusiastic about which song is more difficult, just like they like to discuss which character in Mr. Kim's book has the highest martial arts. Except for the sweeping monk, who is firmly in the first place, some people in other rankings have put forward their own opinions. Let him go.
