The primary level of blowing music, the advanced level of blowing emotion, and the advanced level of blowing are called the third level of flute.

Why do you blow tighter and tighter when blowing a flute?

Beginners, watching the score and playing, with the flow of the music, the rhythm and tempo are matched. Advanced, understand the content of the music, add emotional playing, and make the music move with emotion. Go to the upper level, understand the realm of music, enter the situation, scenery, and artistic conception, so that the music is like a picture. Someone "swipe" to paint,

I put forward the concept of "Blow Flute" painting. If you can blow out of the realm, it is the entry of Pin Xiao.

Blowing love and blowing realm is the essence of Chinese culture. Poetry has realm, painting and calligraphy has realm, music has realm, Tai Chi has realm, meditation has realm, and flute has realm. The word "realm" is the best word for Wang Jing'an. He said: The word takes the realm as the top, and the realm is self-contained, and it has its own famous sentence. The realm has the realm of creation, the realm of writing, the realm of me, and the realm of no self. The realm of the music is best played on the flute by Master Yu Xunfa. Every time people are in the painting, they are deeply moved. Gusu Xing, the herdsmen's new songs, and the remnants of the cold river, you often feel like you are in the scene when you listen to the music. Saying goodbye by the Hong Kong side, thinking about it, and wishing you to return early, it is sentimental and circumstance.

Jing An said: Joy, anger, sorrow and joy are also a state. Therefore, blowing love is also blowing, and the realm of blowing love is not necessarily lower than blowing.

To play Su Wu Shepherd, it illustrates the situation of blowing love: 1. When I first started playing, I always felt inexplicable grief and anger when I thought about Su Wu being exiled to the North Sea, and the tune was also a little angry (this is the feeling of blowing others). 2. Sometimes when I think of Su Wu's experience and my own disappointment, I can't help but feel sorry for myself, and I also feel sad when playing (this is my own feeling). 3. The Kuomintang government came to Taiwan in exile for 38 years. As the years passed, many veterans and veterans also had the sentimentality of Su Wu Muyang, and they could not return home. This song will make people cry (moving with emotion). 4. However, the final spirit of the song is sad but not hurt (self-injury), sad but not resentful (resentment), the gentle and honest spirit is not sullen or angry, and it is a restrained cultivation. The whistleblower blows out quietly, everything is up and down by the listener according to his own experience, there is a state of tranquility and far-reaching (pinxiao entry).

Why do you blow tighter and tighter when blowing a flute?

Practicing Qi, Fingers, Lips, Tongue, Heart, Intent and Shape For blowing flute, you need to practice Qi, fingers, lips, tongue, heart, intention, and shape, etc., so that the sound of the flute can be pure, round, bright and full. , relaxation, strong alcohol, strength and other seven requirements. When practicing, the mind is the commander, the mind leads the movement of the mind, and the mind leads the qi to move. The qi, fingers, lips and tongue move under the leadership of the heart and mind, and avoid unconscious habitual movements. This is a very important source of learning and must not be confused. There are three processes in training the mind: stillness, purity, and nothingness. First, seek stillness, be still like still water, and have a clear mind and view of nature. The second is purification. To make the mind pure, clean it frequently, don't make dust, often go to the clean place in the mountains to practice the flute, and gradually you will have a pure feeling. The next one is nothing, to put down everything and move with the flute, just like the Sixth Patriarch Huineng’s verse, “Bodhi has no tree, and a bright mirror is not a stage. Practicing the mind is a lifelong practice that is endless. The mind leads the mind to act. When practicing the flute, you should avoid unconscious habitual movements. Just like writing, many people have habitual behaviors in the horizontal and vertical positions of the dots. Those who have learned calligraphy know that these habits must be let go. The mind guides the hand and the pen, and writes stroke by stroke along with the image of the dharma. The same is true of practicing the flute. Only with a pure heart can one comprehend the artistic conception of famous songs and follow the ideas of famous artists.

The sound of the Xiao The sound of the Xiao meets the seven requirements of purity, mellow, bright, full, slack, rich and strong.

What is pure? Start practicing the flute from the heart, hold the flute correctly, the body must be correct, the tone must be correct, and the pronunciation must be pure. Every time a note is blown, it must be pure, without hair on the beginning, without clutter between the notes, and without weakness at the end. This is the first requirement. Secondly, the sound should be round and grainy, like a big bead bursting out. This is pure.

What is roundness? Roundness is the opposite of dullness. When the note is dry, it grinds the skin like sandpaper, and when the note is moist, it nourishes like an emollient oil. These are two different feelings. Second, there are no edges and corners that hurt when the notes are rounded. If you taste the timbre carefully, you will know the meaning of the rounded notes. The rounded notes can nourish the soul and sound pleasing to the ear.

What is bright? Bright is the opposite of gloomy. Bright notes make people feel brighter and walk lightly, but gloomy notes make people feel less motivated, the melody is difficult to develop, and the tune cannot be released. Among the problems, one is that the bamboo is not fully baked, resulting in dull pronunciation; one is that the mouthpiece is not dug well, and the sound is not smooth; the other is that the sound hole is not dug well, and the sound is not fast, these three factors will hinder the note. bright.

What is fullness? Fullness is the opposite of emptiness. The sound must be solid in order to stabilize the listener's mind, and the sound of the void is not pure, which is harmful to the cultivation of the mind. The bowl is big or small (volume), no matter how big or small, as long as it is full (quality), it will reach the sound standard. If the sea bowl is only half filled, and the small bowl is not full, it is the sound of emptiness.

What is slack? Relaxation is the opposite of tightness. The relaxing tone can make people feel relaxed. Generous and magnetic, it is a sound that can heal and relieve pain. Anyone who knows how to play the bass and alto of the flute can feel this way. Blow slowly, be calm, and don't be nervous. Gradually, you will realize it.

Why do you blow tighter and tighter when blowing a flute?

What is concentrated alcohol? Alcohol means that the tone is pure and thick enough, while thick means that the tone is dense and solid. Wen Song's Xiao sound is particularly strong and mellow, and it is difficult for ordinary people to forget it. The quality of the flute has a lot to do with it. The inferior products have a thin tone, while the inferior ones are acceptable, and only the top ones can produce a rich tone. What is power? Qi and jin can quickly reach the point of the note at the same time, which is called jin force. Just like Taijiquan's strength, at that moment. Powerful voices are round, sweet and jumping, and they will shake people's hearts. Such powerful notes often appear in Nanguanxiao.

In a word, the notes are soft and rigid, loose and tight, galloping and vigorous, thick and light.  … Only the breadth and depth of music can be found, and the same thick and thin notes and tunes have shortcomings.

Tips for blowing flute When blowing flute, it is better to stand naturally, close your eyes slightly, keep your mind introverted, focus on each note blown, and use the skills you have learned to make the notes round, loose, and powerful. At this time, the mind is relaxed, it is quiet, pure, and nothing, like the lake water without waves, it is a bright mirror, which can instantly reflect the musical notes. When the body is relaxed, qi and blood can run freely without being stiff. The sound hole is relaxed by pressing the finger, and the finger elasticity is like a ball hitting the ground and instantly bounces, and the sound can be rounded and grainy. The tone of voice is relaxed, only loose can be tight, pay attention to tight and then loose, not to be tight to the end. Therefore, the key to blowing flute is only one word, which is "song". Loose heart, body loose, fingers loose, mouth loose. To practice Taijiquan, from the beginning of the loose, only the loose can be transformed and the walking can be vigorous. Learn to sit still, and use relaxation to sink the air to cultivate the body and mind. Song is the key to practice, and flute should also be started from Song.

Three diseases of blowpipe The opposite of looseness is tightness. If the blowpipe is tight, three diseases will arise. If the body and mind are tight, it is easy to cause confusion of notes and speed up the tempo. If you press the fingers tightly, it is easy to cause stiffness, and if the mouth is too tight, it is easy to blow to death, or even make no sound. It is the source of the blowpipe, so pay attention to the derivation of this disease at all times. As a beginner, I played the flute for 30 to 50 minutes, but I couldn't play it anymore, because the tone of the mouth became tighter and tighter, and the result was a metamorphosis and translocation. This is a disease.

Secondly, it is easy to change the breath from loose to tight, and from tight to loose is difficult. Many blowers tend to make the breath tighter the more they blow, and the result is gone forever. At this time, the tone of voice has been blown to death. Although the sound can be produced, the thickness of the notes is the same, and it is difficult to control the changes of strong, weak, thick, light, loose, and tight. This is the second disease. The second disease is the most common, and even some teachers are not aware of it, and use the wrong tone to mislead their children. I have been studying the flute for more than ten years, and I also fell into the second disease by mistake. I discovered this disease because of practicing qigong. Strong and weak voice, there is a feeling of recovery and rebirth.

Once again, after the mouth wind is blown tightly, some people are positioned in the positive mouth wind, and some people are positioned in the crooked mouth wind, and this crooked mouth wind is the most serious three diseases.

There are two ways of blowing flute, one is about interest and not about the body, and the other is both for interest and want to practice. If Xiaoyou takes the first path, it doesn't matter if these three diseases are not cured. If Chuxiao wants to "practice and seek realm", then the three diseases must not be affected.

Practitioners seeking a state of mind People who practice meditation all want to seek a new state of mind. Now that I am healthy, I want to know the feeling of Ren Du's two meridians being opened up, and I want to understand the feeling of the three flowers gathering on the top, practicing essence gathering and transforming into the spirit, as well as the feeling of the golden cicada shedding its shell and channeling the mind. What is the state of blowpipe practice? The predecessors did not say (probably did not practice). In my imagination, it is the combination of the body and the music of the flute. Where the artistic conception goes, the music of the flute goes there. Just like Xingyiquan (Taijiquan), where the mind goes, the shape goes, and it is like sitting in meditation, where the qi goes where the mind goes. At this time, the sound of the Xiao sound is harmless. Create the environment with your mind, seek it with your mind, and unite your mind and mind, that is, the entry of Pinxiao. Please refer to the article "How to Blow the Flute": Take Blowing - Pinghu Qiuyue - as an example 1. Before playing this song, you must have heard this song and have a preliminary understanding of the scene and artistic conception of the song. At this time, you first expand this kind of reverie and cognition (that is, create the environment with your heart), and look at the name of the Pinghu Qiuyue song: calm lake surface, water waves are not happy, quiet autumn night, the wind is high, the moon is reflected on the lake surface, The beautiful scenery makes people daydream... What do you think? From each person's experience and the melody of the song, create the environment in the music. 2. Close your eyes slightly when blowing and keep your heart inward. Listen to every note you blow quietly in your heart, and use the playing skills you have learned to exercise it, so that the sound of the xiao becomes pure, round and beautiful (that is, to seek it out). The other direction of the mind is musical notation. It is like reading and reciting scriptures. The heart and mouth flow along with the musical notation and books. The distracting thoughts should not be distracted and should not be confused. That's what I'm talking about-----practice the flute and cultivate the mind. 3. After everything is mastered, the man and the flute are united, the heart and the mouth are united, and the artistic conception of the music flows. This is the stage of Pinxiao's entry. After that, there are borders outside the country, and the relationship is born from the heart, and there is no agreement. 4. Every piece of music has a story, or a scene, or a mood.... The flute player should go into the story, scene, mood... and use the sound of the flute to describe..., use the flute The sound is used to write the environment, and the higher level is to use the sound of the xiao to create another environment.

Involving musical instruments

Xiao (pinyin: xiāo), divided into dongxiao and qinxiao. And because the flute has a hole, it is different from the pan flute without a hole, so it is called "dongxiao". The xiao has a long history, the sound is round and soft, quiet and elegant, suitable for solo and ensemble. It is generally made of bamboo with blow holes at the top.

The correct breathing method is very important for playing wind music. Chinese folk wind music attaches great importance to the use of "qi". Only when the breath is used properly can it be played freely for a long time. Otherwise, you will feel tired after playing for a while and may have chest tightness.

Xiao is suitable for playing long, quiet and lyrical tunes to express quiet and elegant emotions. In the ancient song "Spring River, Flowers and Moonlight Night", at the beginning, the dongxiao played a light boeing sound, which matched the drum sound simulated by the pipa, depicting the scene of the flute and drum playing on a cruise ship.
