Generally, provinces and regions across the country have state-approved musical instrument grading and certification units. These grading units are suitable for amateur-level piano grading, because the value of the certificate is not too high, and the teaching materials for grading in each region ( The repertoire) also have some similarities, which most piano teachers in children's education will say. As for the registration for the grade examination, it is usually conducted twice a year, during the winter and summer vacations. The registration location is at the provincial (regional) musicians association.
If you want a more valuable professional-level piano certificate, you can take the exam at *** Conservatory of Music, China Conservatory of Music, Chinese Musicians Association and other places, twice a year, such as the Central Conservatory of Music unified time It is in June and December every year. Please refer to the official website for details. Before taking the exam, you should also learn more about the relevant exam materials.
The piano grade examinations in Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and abroad are also different, and there are differences between each region. If you want your children to register for foreign music conservatory examinations, you need to train your children more. Piano interest (international is more strict than domestic). Generally speaking, if you want your child to become a piano teacher, you need to start with the professional examination, and it is best to study in a music conservatory. As for the professional examination, this is not a stable number. Not everyone is Beethoven, and many people are becoming piano teachers. None of the teachers have reached professional level 10.
By the way, piano teachers also need to apply for the relevant piano teacher professional qualification certificate exam. If you are simply cultivating your interests and expertise, the amateur level is a good choice.
Extended information: Things to note for the piano grade exam: 1. Dress appropriately. Although the piano grade exam is not a formal performance on the stage, dressing is still very important. After all, the first impression is very important. After all, the weather is hot, and there is no need for a formal dress. But at least keep it clean, tidy, and elegant. Please don't come to the exam wearing a vest, slippers, or anything like that.
Note: 1. Don’t wear clothes with sleeves that are too big or too long, which are not conducive to performance. Regarding shoes, try to wear leather shoes and sneakers. If you want to wear sandals, don't forget to wear socks.
It would be a little rude to wear slippers with bare feet, and it wouldn’t be too comfortable to step on the piano pedals. After all, beauty has to make way for convenience of playing! 2. Take off rings, bracelets, watches and other jewelry on your hands to avoid affecting your performance or making noise.
This is a very amateurish performance. 3. It is very important to maintain a neat hairstyle and let the judges see a neat mental appearance.
4. Check your nails the day before, and do not make the sound of nails hitting the keys when playing. 2. Be polite and understand etiquette 1. When entering, hand the required admission ticket and other documents to the examiner with both hands.
2. Walk to the piano, face the judges, bow to the judges generously, and report your name and exam number according to the regulations. 3. Before playing, if you need to adjust the position of the piano bench, please move the piano bench as quietly as possible to avoid making sharp noises.
Regarding this, you can practice it yourself at home first. All examination rooms are equipped with footstools. If you need to use them, move them gently and as gracefully as possible.

How are piano levels divided?
The National Piano Grade Examination is divided into 10 levels. The total score of the piano grade examination is 5 items, and each item must be tested.
1. Basic exercises, including scales and arpeggios in different keys. During the exam, the invigilator will randomly select a group of pieces 2. One etude 3. One piece from the Baroque period 4. One large-scale piece (i.e. sonata) 5. One piece of Chinese and foreign music For specific pieces and scope, please refer to the "Cross-Century New Piano Edition" "Grade Exam Tutorial", this book lists the requirements for each level in detail.
The last thing I want to say is that the current grading examination market is relatively chaotic. The organizers mainly aim to make profits. Participants can often obtain high-level certificates but do not have the corresponding level. If you want to get a certificate with a relatively high value, you can only take the exam in big cities like Shanghai and Beijing.
What is the highest piano level?
The external grading examination of the Central Conservatory of Music is the most authoritative instrument grading examination in China, with the highest level being nine levels and no performance level.
/p>
Next, there is a province where all the exams are Level 10, but the pass rate is high but the gold content is not high. It is recommended to take the Central Conservatory of Music exam. Everyone on the earth knows that this is the authority.
The nonsense downstairs is talking about China. There is no professional piano grading. Don’t talk nonsense if you don’t understand
To refute the basic point downstairs. The grading exams conducted by Emperor and Holy Trinity in China are amateur grading exams and not professional grading exams
(The following quotes are from Starry Night Piano Network)
The British Royal Academy of Music’s amateur piano grading ABRSM, the requirements for grades 1-8 are much higher than the domestic grading requirements. It not only assesses piano playing ability, but also music theory, sight-reading and sight-singing practice. A comprehensive examination of ear and piano performance. Amateur piano learning in many foreign countries takes this level test, which shows the comprehensive ability included in real formal piano training.
I feel that domestic amateur piano teaching needs to be improved, or the baton for amateur grading can be moved in this direction. In this way, many amateur students can truly master piano skills and improve their comprehensive musical ability through piano training.
By the way, foreign piano teacher qualifications are very strict. You need to pass ABRSM level 8 before you can teach students from level 1 to level 5. To teach students from level 6 to level 8, you must reach the professional performance level and truly pass the exam. There is no problem at all for teachers taking such exams to give correct and complete demonstrations to students. This shows whether many domestic piano teachers really have such qualifications.
What are the levels of piano test scores?
Piano grading*** is divided into ten levels, which are assessed through formal examinations organized by relevant institutions every year. Those who pass the exam can obtain a grading certificate of the corresponding level.
There are currently several authoritative exams organized by the following domestic piano grading institutions:
1. The grading exams organized by the Music Grading Committee of the National Musicians Association (twice a year, each in the summer vacation) It is held during the winter vacation, and the registration place is generally at the Musicians Association of each province. For example, the national piano examination in Shenyang City is registered at the Liaoning Musicians Association).
2. Central Conservatory of Music piano grading (Note: There is no level 10 piano grading at the Central Conservatory of Music. Level 9 is a comparative level, but its level 9 is also more difficult than the national level 10. There should be registration points in various places. The Liuning Piano School in Shenyang is an examination center of the Central Conservatory of Music in Liaoning. There are also corresponding agencies in other areas responsible for agency).
3. Shanghai Musicians Association piano grading exam (everything in Shanghai is different from the rest of the country, such as college entrance examination papers, so you cannot take the National Musicians Association piano grading exam in Shanghai. You can only take the exam every summer vacation. Compared with The high level is also level 10. However, it should be noted that the repertoire in Shanghai is more difficult than that in the country. The repertoire in Shanghai for level 9 is already the repertoire of level 10 in the country, and the repertoire in Shanghai is equivalent to the national level 10. "Level 11", in recent years, Shanghai has developed a "performance level", which is more difficult than Level 10, for those who are capable to take the exam.

How many levels are there in piano?
The level is not determined this way, children’s shoes.
Piano is about technique and speed.
As mentioned above, both left and right hands can play melodies, and anyone who has just started learning can do it by looking at the staff and playing familiar music.
But if you are required to play Hanon clearly and easily at a speed of about 200, it is not something that can be achieved at the beginner level. One aspect of piano requires flexibility, strength, and stability of the fingers, and this cannot be achieved without 10 or 8 years of hard work - slightly more complex music can generally be handled, but large-scale classical music, the Various skills, techniques, and speed requirements require years of accumulation to slowly achieve - finger training requires a process. Generally speaking, the same piece of music will become more difficult as the speed is increased, because the opponent's requirements will be higher. It’s common to think of a lot of things that you can’t do and your brain can’t keep up but your hands can’t.
So there is a saying that the deeper you go into playing the piano, the more difficult it becomes. If you don’t have a solid foundation, you won’t be able to go deeper. It’s all just because you don’t have enough skill. If you just follow the bullets, fingerings, etc., then everyone can play - but it takes hard work to meet the requirements.
As for the grade examination, let alone amateur level 10, it is professional level 10. From a higher perspective, it is only halfway. There are many amateur level 10 students. Children who learn piano will usually pass the exam after a few years, but it’s hard to say how good they are. The piano is enough to take a lifetime. Sometimes when you see others playing easily, in fact, behind that lies the foundation laid by years of boring practice.

How many levels do you need to take the first piano test?
The piano test is divided into amateur piano and professional piano, and the two tests are different.
There are two types of amateur piano, one is classical piano and the other is improvisational piano. There are ten levels of classical piano. There is no need to take the first-level exam and you can skip the level.
To take the improvisational piano exam, you must have passed level 10 of classical piano. For professional piano grading, you must attend a music conservatory, which is divided into three levels: upper, intermediate and lower.
Extended information: The origin of the piano: The piano first appeared in 1709. At that time, it was a complex and expensive instrument that only the royal family and nobles had access to. At first, some very prestigious musicians such as Johann Sebastian Bach did not appreciate the sound of the piano.
But just half a century later, the piano became more and more popular. When highly creative musicians such as Mozart, Brahms and Liszt fell into the arms of the piano, their enthusiasm was instantly detonated.
At that time, these emerging pianists were like "rock stars". Their huge influence could be said to be the icing on the cake for music creation and injected powerful force into the development of piano. Royal families and nobles have included the piano as an instrument in their bands. People can sit around the piano and listen to the newly created beautiful melodies.
The rise of the industrial age gave rise to a new social class - the middle class, and pianos became very popular among this group. Among them, the grand piano is a symbol of social status and is usually used in formal solo performances or concerts with the orchestra, while the upright piano is more popular with families.
