Early the next morning, Li Tianran turned on the computer and found some piano music, and continued to learn the knowledge of stave while playing it on a loop.

Li Tianran learned to recognize the notes of five different beats: whole notes, half notes, quarter notes, eighth notes, and sixteenth notes, and the middle quarter note is one beat.

Li Tianran chatted with Jian Huaijin for a while, and learned that Jian Huaijin had been learning piano since she was 6 years old, and now she is an amateur piano level 10.

Jian Huaijin recommended some music textbooks suitable for beginners to practice, such as Hanon's "Piano Practice Fingering", Bayer's "Piano Simple Course", "Czerny 599", "Czerny 849", Bach's "Elementary Piano Levels" and some practice methods.

Li Tianran thanked Jian Huaijin for this, and humbly wrote down her suggestions in the notebook.

At 8 o'clock in the morning the next day, Li Tianran got on the bus, and after getting off the bus, he walked almost 2 kilometers before coming to Tianxian Piano Shop.

When I got to the piano room on the third floor, I knocked on the door and entered the room, and there was a female teacher in her 30s who was teaching a boy.

Li Tianran waited while listening to the female teacher's class, and after a while, the boy left class.

The female teacher beckoned Li Tianran over, "Hello teacher, my name is Li Tianran, and I made an appointment to come to class at 9 o'clock yesterday." Li Tianran greeted politely.

The female teacher also introduced herself to Li Tianran, her name is Liu Ruilin, she is a music teacher at the No. 1 Middle School in the city, graduated from the Shanghai Conservatory of Music, and is proficient in several musical instruments.

On weekdays, on weekends or during summer vacations and other time when there are no classes, I will teach students to play the piano part-time at Tianxian Piano Shop, and occasionally take on some performance work.

After introducing herself, Teacher Liu learned about her piano level from Li Tianran, and also learned that Li Tianran only taught himself some knowledge of staves, and he had not fully mastered it, and he had not learned the piano, so he was a beginner.

Teacher Liu did not panic, and started the class with great experience, starting from the hand shape.

"Come, follow me, I have a fist in my left hand, hold my left hand with my right hand, take out my right hand and just put it on the keys, and my hand should be like holding an egg.

The wrist should be relaxed, the wrist arch is too stiff, no, the pressure is too low, it is not good. The arms and wrists should be on the same level, in a state of natural relaxation."

Li Tianran studied with the teacher very seriously.

"It's good, I've learned how to shape my hands, now let's start playing, like I did, relax and sit slightly forward in the middle of the bench so that our center of gravity can move back and forth between the bench and our feet.

Our bodies can't be too close or too far from the piano, you know? ”

Li Tianran nodded to show that he understood.

"When playing the piano, you should touch the keyboard with your fingertips, so your nails must be cut clean, and you should pay attention to your hands when playing, and you can't fold your fingers and your fingers," Mr. Liu said while playing do re mi fa sol la xi, and asked Li Tianran to try it.

Li Tianran thought about the posture and hand shape taught by the teacher to play, do re mi...... The hand unconsciously cocked, and was immediately pointed out by Mr. Liu.

Li Tiantian's heart tightened, he became more serious, slowed down to play, tried not to fold and his fingers, practiced a few times, and carried out a high finger raising exercise under the guidance of Teacher Liu......

Teacher Liu also taught Li Tianran semitones, whole tones, and sound groups.

"Any two adjacent keys (including the black keys) on a piano form a semitone, which is the smallest unit of measurement in a piano. Two keys separated by a key form a whole tone.

If you only use the naming method of the basic scale, there will be many notes in the keyboard that are the same name, so you need to add the sound groups to distinguish them.

We call the group of small characters in the middle of the keyboard (near the piano keyhole, with a complete set of three notes on the left and right), which is represented by the small letter of superscript 1: small character group: c1 d1 e1 f1 g1 a1 b1

The c1 in the small character group is also called the central C, and a1 is the standard tone mentioned above, and the instrument is made and set by this standard.

On the right side of the small character group, from left to right, they are the second group of small characters, the third group of small characters, the fourth group of small characters, and the fifth group of small characters:

Small print group 2: c2 d2 e2 f2 g2 a2 b2

Small print three groups: c3 d3 e3 f3 g3 a3 b3

Small four groups: c4 d4 e4 f4 g4 a4 b4

Small characters in five groups: only one sound c5

On the left side of the small character group, from right to left, they are the small character group, the large character group, the large character group, and the large character group 2:

Small font: c d e f g a b

Large character group: C D E F G A B

A large group: C1 D1 E1 F1 G1 A1 B1

Big Character Group 2: The basic tone scale is only A2 B2

By combining the group and the name, we can accurately identify the tone represented by any white key on the keyboard.

Do you go back to reading a book by yourself to strengthen your memory? I'll just say it here once, you just need to understand. ”

Because he has never learned the piano, every sentence of Mr. Liu is a knowledge point for Li Tianran, Li Tianran listens very carefully, and tries to memorize while listening, and does not dare to be a little distracted.

After talking about the basics, Mr. Liu took out a copy of "Bayer Piano Basic Course", turned the first page, marked the numbers on the staff, and Mr. Liu demonstrated to Li Tianran, to play according to the beat and notes, so that Li Tianran began to practice with his right hand and one hand according to the book......

Li Tianran has no problem playing the notes, but the gestures are always non-standard, the posture is ugly, the fingers are stiff, and he can't help but fold or his fingers, and he can't grasp the weight well.

After Mr. Liu strictly corrected Li Tianran's problems many times, Li Tianran slowly got better, although he still made mistakes occasionally.

Teacher Liu instructed and encouraged on the side: "As a beginner who has never learned the piano, you are already very good, the piano is not something that can be practiced overnight, and the piano beginner also needs to practice for about 1 year, if you want to make a living from it, there is no ten years that you can't learn real kung fu."

Lang Lang learned the piano at the age of 3, and began to practice the piano for more than 6 hours a day at the age of 7. Don't be in a hurry, play slowly and patiently. ”

Li Tianran calmed down, slowly practiced, finished practicing the right hand touch key, and began to practice the left hand touch key, Teacher Liu was next to him from time to time to guide and correct errors.

When it was time for the end of class, Mr. Liu said to Li Tianran: "There are still four classes to give, you come to class at this point every day, and when you go home from class, you must practice diligently and digest what you have learned in class."

If you still want to learn from me later, my one-on-one small class teaching is 60 yuan a lesson, now in the summer vacation, there is more time to practice the piano every day, you can report 50 lessons at a time, you can play an 8% discount 2400 yuan.

As long as you can listen carefully in class, complete the practice tasks assigned by the teacher with quality and quantity after class, and finish 50 lessons, you can play some repertoire proficiently. Go home and talk to your parents. ”

"Okay, thank you, teacher, I plan to go to Xinhua Bookstore to buy some teaching materials related to piano practice later, can you recommend them to me?" Li Tianran asked.

"No problem" Mr. Liu happily wrote some book titles for Li Tianran and asked Li Tianran to buy them, including the "Bayer Piano Basic Course" practiced today, and Mr. Liu assigned homework and asked Li Tianran to go back and practice it.
