What is important and what is not important in playing the guzheng? What is the most important thing about learning guzheng today? What things are not important.

time doesn't matter

Some piano friends always think that the longer the time spent practicing hard in the piano room every day, the better, but this is not the case. Not everyone can become a guzheng player if they spend 10 hours in the piano room every day. Music needs a certain connotation, and its soul is a catharsis of the rich emotional accumulation of the performer. Simple hard practice every day, even if the practice method is correct, at most it is only pure practice skills, and it will not be of much help to "music".

School and education are not important

No matter where you are, it is a professional class once a week, and most of the time you have to study hard by yourself. If you want to really devote yourself to this career, you need to keep it in your mind every day, and you must be absolutely dedicated to it. Not all those who graduate from academy are performers, and not all those who come out of ordinary schools are amateurs. To correct the attitude of learning music, love, talent, and diligence are the most important things. It is meaningless to blindly pursue famous schools. So the key is to look at the subjective, not the objective; look at the individual, not the body.

Results don't matter

There are many people who study music, but not everyone can become a "home". As long as you study hard and practice yourself, you won't have to regret it. Don't set goals that are not suitable for you, and don't blindly compare yourself with others, because that will only make you very tired and cause bad emotions. The main purpose of learning music is to enjoy life by learning to enjoy art, and to gain the independent spirit and perseverance cultivated through piano practice. But no matter what you study for or what you have achieved, don't be a slave to rank and vanity.

body language doesn't matter

Body language is not simply developed by the teacher's verbal narration, such as "lower your head and relax your body..." and so on. In that case, it would be too blunt even if the students did it reluctantly. Everything needs to be done in the details of the limbs expressed by the involuntary feelings from the heart. That is to say, when the performers can really understand the music and can sing on the piano from the bottom of their hearts, they will have good body language.

What is important and what is not important when learning guzheng?

interest is important

When a student starts out as a novice, he is a blank piece of paper, and he must cultivate the foundation and interest in this period. Not only teachers, but also parents play an important role during this period. Creating a good environment will allow children to develop good habits and interests, otherwise it will be the opposite. In reality, there are many situations in which parents do not like it themselves, but force their children to learn. On weekends, parents either go out to play, or play mahjong or watch TV at home, but imprison their children in their small room and just throw an order to "practice for a few hours", and then euphemistically call it "everything for the child". In this state, it is really difficult to make children like and love the guzheng. Many parents save money and spend money to buy pianos and pay tuition fees for their children, but their children still do not like to learn. At this time, parents need to reflect: Have they created a good piano practice environment and learning atmosphere for their children? It would be even better if parents could also learn a little music or other musical instruments, so that they could communicate and play together with their children, which would greatly help their children's enthusiasm for learning the piano.

Communication is important

Art lies in communication, and only communication can improve. Communication is ubiquitous, such as teachers taking classes, watching other people's performances, chatting with people, and so on. Some piano friends are too introverted and not good at communicating with others. For example, a piano friend said, "Would you like to play a song for everyone to enjoy?" I would not dare or want to play it myself. I'm afraid that people who are lower than myself will say that I'm "showing off", and I'm afraid that people who are higher than me will say "poor". The more I think about it, the more obstacles will be set up for myself.

Involving musical instruments

Guzheng (pinyin: Gǔ Zhēng), also known as Hanzheng and Qinzheng, is an ancient national musical instrument of the Han nationality and is popular all over China.

Because of its wide range, beautiful timbre, rich playing skills and strong expressiveness, it is known as the "King of Music", also known as "Oriental Piano", and is one of the unique and important national musical instruments in China.
