Chapter 13 Four Ways to Recite Musical Notes

He Shen was a little helpless. He had seen that Zhao Zitong's skills were a bit weak before, but he never expected her to be so weak.

To put it simply, Zhao Zitong is completely unfamiliar with the twelve majors and twelve minors, and he can't think of them easily at all.

Then the following arpeggios, that is, the decomposition of chords, this problem is similar to the previous major and minor scales, and I am not familiar enough with the tonality.

Octave is not bad, she can make this kind of pure technical exercises look good, and those fingers are not bad, her fingers are very independent.

But... the cadence in the end is a complete mess. She doesn't even know what a cadence is and what a cadence is.

"So, you really don't know what a cadence is?"

He Shen looked at Zhao Zitong with an unkind expression, his eyebrows furrowed tightly.

If Zhao Zitong is completely unclear about the cadence, then I need to make a little adjustment to her teaching plan.

It was obvious to Zhao Zitong that she didn't understand what He Shen said at all. Although she really wanted to confront He Shen, but seeing He Shen's extremely serious expression, she felt a little guilty for some reason, so she could only hold her neck and whispered. road.

"What, what's the matter? Is it possible that music learners must know what cadence is? Hmm?"

"It's not necessary..." He Shen shook his head.

If she can understand the cadence well, then she must be able to understand very clearly what is called a positive cadence, what is called a declension cadence, what is called a half cadence, and what is called a full cadence.

The cadence is actually easy to understand, as in a more popular term, the cadence in music represents the whole process of beginning, succession, transition, and reunion.

For example, the simplest TSDT, from the initial main chord T, to the subordinate chord S, then from the subordinate chord S to the dominant chord D, and finally the subordinate chord D back to the main chord T, such a process.

The simplest piece of work will also use the cadence, which is equivalent to the overall composition of the music.

If Zhao Zitong can clearly understand what the cadence is, then everything will be simple. He Shen only needs to take Zhao Zitong to analyze the whole music, and then ask her to use the most basic method of memorizing the whole song. The work can be memorized.

Things like G minor, the Neapolitan sixth, the octave between the hands, the four-bar run up, that sort of thing.

After memorizing for a long time, you can directly memorize, T Naples, upper four, or simpler and more abstract notes that only the note-taker can understand.

But it is obvious that Zhao Zitong has no way to complete this task. Her understanding of harmony is almost zero, so He Shen can only give up this teaching method.

If you want to recite a work, there are only a few ways to recite notation.

First, the muscle memory memorization method uses your own muscle memory to memorize the music, so that your fingers can naturally remember what notes you should play next.

The second is the method of reciting notation by frame, which divides the whole work into several fragments, and then memorizes each fragment separately, and memorizes them separately.

Third, melody memorization method, memorize the overall melody, and then use the melody to memorize all the sounds of the entire work.

Basically, there are only these types, and there are several other types, which are only variants of these three types, so I won’t introduce more.

At present, if Zhao Zitong wants to play this song well, the fastest way should be to memorize the frame and melody.

When Zhao Zitong was feeling her playing, her ears had been listening carefully, listening to the difference between her playing and her own playing.

In other words, her understanding of melody will be more profound than her other understandings, such as the understanding of harmony and sound.

That being the case...

Seeing that He Shen had been in deep thought, Zhao Zitong couldn't help pursing his mouth, stood up, walked around, stretched, and his beautiful body curves looked extraordinarily charming under the sunlight outside the house.

Zhao Zitong didn't realize that she was under He Shen's sight at all. After stretching, she lay weakly on the back of the chair and looked at He Shen boredly.

After teaching himself the basics for nearly two hours, this person stopped talking and didn't know what to think.

But, hehe, no matter what he thinks, I will never let him be my piano teacher. There is only one person on my piano, and that is my father!

Although, my dad doesn't go home very often, and he rarely teaches me the piano, and doesn't care much about my piano learning progress...

but!My own piano teacher can only be my dad!Others don't even want to take Dad's place!
Thinking of this, she couldn't help scratching He Shen twice with her eyes.

A lot of piano teachers who came to apply for the job before were quickly scared away by their mother's high demands and their own attitude, so this person stayed!
Although he plays the piano very well, he feels almost like his father, and when he talks about the piano, he also looks like his father...

But he absolutely can't take Dad's place!Not even as a sparring partner!

He Shen didn't know what Zhao Zitong was thinking in her heart. After re-evaluating Zhao Zitong's level and her current progress, he finally nodded in satisfaction. Just as he was about to tell Zhao Zitong what to do next, he suddenly found that she was lying on the ground. On the back of the chair, staring at himself, there was an inexplicable emotion in his eyes, and he couldn't help frowning.

"What's the matter? Why don't you practice the piano, but sit there in a daze, what are you thinking? Or is there something on my face?"

"No, no! Hmph!"

Zhao Zitong turned her head abruptly, and immediately criticized her for being unsteady just now.

How could such a person be compared with his perfect father! !

My father, but Jiangzhou University of the Arts, the vice president of the School of Music, the head of the piano department, is not this weird guy who came to his home for no reason to teach him, so he can be compared!

He Shen looked at Zhao Zitong whose mood kept changing, and scratched his head inexplicably.

As expected, I can't understand women. As for a little girl who is not yet an adult, I can't figure out what is going on in her head at all.

Sure enough, music is better. Everything is written on the scoreboard. You can read the scoreboard to understand what you want to express in the music, instead of making unfounded guesses.

woman?It will only affect the speed at which I play the piano!

He Shen sighed, swept away the inexplicable thoughts in his heart, and said to Zhao Zitong.

"Okay, let's go to class."
