1. What kind of piano lessons are best for children?

Many parents will face the same problem when their children first learn piano: What are the requirements for children to start learning piano? Practice every day. If you buy a piano from the beginning of learning, will it be too early due to some uncertain factors? It is very important to actually find a suitable learning class. The Yibo Tongcheng that pays attention to advocates one-stop music enlightenment education. You must do it in the early stage Cultivating children's interests and hobbies is more effective.

2. How to choose an institution for children’s piano training

1. First of all, children should be guided when learning piano. It is best to learn musical instruments after the age of six; music education in Europe and the United States is much more advanced than ours. years; in their music education, children are not exposed to musical instruments before they are 6 or 7 years old. But not playing musical instruments does not mean not learning music. On the contrary, they "play" music very crazily and happily. Children before the age of 6 or 7 are still experiencing music in games, turning audible music into dances, drawings into graphics, making up stories, playing the characters in the stories, and realizing a deep understanding of music through their own feelings and expressions. Levels of understanding, integrating monotonous and boring music theory knowledge in "playing", and mastering it point by point. When these children reach the age of 6 or 7, they will actively ask to learn their favorite musical instruments, truly feel the joy of learning musical instruments, and voluntarily insist on practicing, thus achieving the effect of learning musical instruments with twice the result with half the effort. It greatly shortens the time period for children to learn musical instruments and saves parents a lot of financial and material resources.

2. Our parents should also pay attention to this most important thing when choosing a piano school. Find out whether the school's educational philosophy is scientific and whether the teaching methods can guide children to like music and grow up healthily.

3. Depends on when the school was established. Generally, schools that have been established for a longer period of time will be better. Check whether the teaching facilities are warm, healthy and sanitary; check whether the teachers are caring. Try the course yourself and experience it with your children.

3. How does the piano teacher teach children to understand whole notes in a lively and interesting way?

Have your students learned the concept of one beat? They should. It’s easy to explain. When four small bean sprouts are pulled into a circle, they become whole notes.

4. How to arrange the steps of learning piano lessons

1. The correct piano The course learning sequence is divided into three steps:

1. Sound (musical performance)

Without good expressive sound, it is not music. Too many piano players who have been trained for many years have no sense of music, and their musical sensibilities and expressiveness are not even as good as those of ordinary people who have not studied music for a day. Because music is in line with human nature, everyone can understand music as long as their "human nature" is still there. With the correct guidance of a teacher, this understanding process can be accelerated and the time for understanding can be shortened.

2. Music score reading technology

Music score is a navigation map leading to music. Correct and efficient music score reading technology can allow you to quickly find "the music itself". Excellent piano courses must place the issue of music reading in an important position. Basic music reading skills are issues that must be thoroughly solved in the first 2-3 years of piano learning.

3. Performance technology

Performance technology is the vehicle to music. There is no good technical system (Note: refers to more than 10 basic techniques based on the three key touch methods of non-legato, staccato and legato, as well as thousands of different sounds generated according to musical situations.), You can't reach the holy land of music even if you hold the "navigation map" of sheet music.

With a good technical system, your means of transportation are "airplanes" and "high-speed trains". With average technical capabilities, you only have a broken truck or tractor, or a horse-drawn carriage or an ox-cart. In terms of technical ability, you just walk or lie down to your destination.

2. Piano course arrangement

1. The beginner class takes a long time to learn

Nowadays, some students are very unfamiliar with piano when they first come into contact with piano. The interest of children is not high, so the current music training classes will arrange these piano lessons from less to more. At the beginning, these children can be cultivated to be interested in piano, and in the later stage, the children can quickly master the skills of playing piano. method.

2. The learning time of intermediate classes is moderate

Nowadays, junior high school students generally sign up for intermediate piano training classes. The piano course arrangements of these music training classes are also very reasonable. On Saturdays or On Sunday, it basically lasts four hours from 8 a.m. to 12 noon. These junior high school students are provided with time to practice piano and at the same time point out shortcomings in the playing process and make timely corrections.

The morning time can make children's minds clearer.

3. Advanced classes take a long time to practice

Nowadays, only children with a certain piano foundation will sign up for advanced piano training classes. These music training classes are very important for piano courses. The arrangement is also in line with the receptive abilities of these children. Children in these reports and training classes should have a very solid grasp of the basic knowledge of piano and also be able to play some simple pieces very well, so in the course of the course , these teachers are required to intersperse some difficult repertoire.

These students need to practice for a long time. Generally, the advanced training class lasts about one day.

(4) Introduction to the features of children’s piano courses Extended reading:

Things to note when learning piano

1. Split and combine: practice separately first, both left and right hands Once you are very familiar with it, practice it with your hands together.

2. Slow and fast: practice slowly first, and strive to be accurate during the slow practice (it is better to be slow than wrong). After you become familiar with it, gradually speed up until you reach the speed specified by the song.

3. Zeros and wholes: Don’t practice in large sections (or even the whole piece) right from the beginning. Divide the piece into several small sections (try to divide it into phrases) and practice section by section until you have practiced it to a certain level. Combine several exercises, and finally practice the entire piece together.

4. Easy and difficult: extract the difficult points and focus on them. For the more difficult phrases, passages, and even measures, you can't just make do with it. The more difficult it is, the harder you have to work hard. Every time you overcome a difficulty, you will move up a level!

5. Reading and memorizing music: Reading and memorizing music can train your ability to read and sight-read music. Playing from memory is a basic requirement, so the abilities of reading and memorizing music need to overlap.

Practice without neglecting it.

5. The importance of early childhood piano education

With its powerful artistic expression and high playing skills, the piano is known as the "King of Musical Instruments". With the With the development of the times, the charm of piano has become increasingly apparent. More and more people love piano and pay attention to piano education. Many parents have trained their children to learn piano since childhood, but not all parents can deeply understand the impact of early childhood piano education on their children. Their true essence. Therefore, professional exploration in the field of early childhood piano education is particularly important.

1. Determination of the age at which young children learn to play piano.

Piano is a technical skill. It is a course with strong practical and independent requirements. It requires students to have a rigorous and down-to-earth attitude towards piano learning, as well as the ability to learn piano consciously and diligently. However, the sooner you learn piano, the better it is from the perspective of a pianist. You see, the width of the hand, the stretch between the fingers, and the elasticity of the finger joints are decisive factors, and these can be effectively trained when the joints and membranes of the hands are still soft, which is essential for making a pair of pianos. The hands of parents are of great use. Many parents want their children to learn piano, but they don’t know the best age for their children to learn. Medical scientists have found that musicians’ brains are much more developed than ordinary people, especially their brains. The capacity of the left hemisphere is larger than that of ordinary people, and the fibers between the left and right brains are also thicker than that of ordinary people.

These physiological characteristics of the brain are more prominent in the brains of people who started learning music before the age of 7. Someone conducted a survey on the age at which 33 pianists who participated in the Third Tchaikovsky International Piano Competition held in 1966 started learning piano. Among them, 1 started learning piano at the age of two, 3 started at the age of three, and 6 started learning piano at the age of five. There are 8 people who are six years old, 7 people who are seven years old, and one person each who are eight, nine, and ten years old. It can be concluded that 85% of pianists are in the age group of three to seven years old, and this age group can be regarded as the beginning. The best age to learn piano.

It can be seen that from three years old to seven years old is the golden period for children to learn piano. According to relevant expert surveys, there are two important periods of musical talent development in a person's life: One is the 2-6 years old in preschool, and the other is the 12-15 years old in school. As far as learning piano is concerned, children aged 4-5 have already developed a certain degree of comprehensive ability and self-control, and they are starting to learn piano and other things. The best period for playing a musical instrument. However, early childhood psychology tells us that the intentional attention of three- and four-year-olds only lasts for five to ten minutes, and that of five- and six-year-olds only lasts for about twenty minutes at most. Therefore, when teaching piano to children, not only is it required. Piano teachers must master correct and skillful piano playing skills, and pay more attention to children's psychological and physiological characteristics so that children can have a lasting interest in the process of learning piano, so that they can spontaneously develop a desire to learn piano and be motivated by it. and encouragement. We also need to further determine the child's piano learning age based on the specific situation of each child. After all, every child is different.

2. The importance of cultivating children's interest

p>

Piano is a new thing for novice children, and it is relatively easy to generate spontaneous interest: at the beginning, perhaps it was the children's curiosity about the "monstrous thing" in front of them - the piano, and so on. After "pressing" the keys a few times, I became most directly interested in the strange sounds of different levels, which may just be novel and fun for children. But it is also possible that when he saw the piano for the second time, the novelty was gone and he felt it was "not fun" anymore, so he was no longer interested in the piano. A child's "interest" and "fun" are different. No, only by developing children's interest can teachers improve children's interest in playing the piano. From children's interest in the piano itself to the development of interest in playing the piano, the interest at this time will be more specific and stable, and the hard work will be absorbed. Only when the process of learning piano is regarded as a pleasure can it last long.

3. The role of teachers who are illiterate

(1) In the process of imparting knowledge, due to the age and age of the children, Everyone has different receptive abilities, so how to teach children vividly and make them learn piano easily and happily is the responsibility of every piano teacher. If we want to make it easier for children to accept and remember, we must use appropriate metaphors. To inspire children's thinking.

For example: when learning pitch arrangement, don't isolate each sound and turn it into a symbol that has nothing to do with music, but give it life. You can draw stairs and hills, and use climbing stairs and up and down mountains to let children experience the melody. Tendency; when distinguishing the high-pitched area, the mid-range area and the low-pitched area, animal sounds can be used as a metaphor. The high-pitched area is like a bird singing crisply, and the low-pitched area is like the sound of a lion roaring, etc., giving

< p> Children’s rich imagination enables them to learn through play and learn through play.

(2) Teachers play a particularly important role in students’ piano learning process. It is a very common phenomenon that students will learn well in which subject they like the teacher. In fact, this is right. Only if students like you will they care more about your teaching. The same goes for teaching piano to young children. Children take piano lessons for the first time with both curiosity and nervousness. As a child's first teacher, we should not only impart knowledge to them, but more importantly, establish a good relationship between teachers and students. To cultivate this kind of emotion, the teacher's expression is very important at the beginning. The teacher's expression is a silent language, because your emotions are written on your face. Innocent children are very sensitive to teachers' expressions. To shorten the distance between teachers and children, friendly and kind expressions are the most direct way.

As a teacher, you should understand your students comprehensively. Every child has a different personality, preferences, intelligence and physical conditions. For example, for some students with introverted personality and slow acceptance, once these students break through certain difficulties, teachers should praise them so that they can be encouraged and gain confidence. You must not get impatient or angry, let alone say things that hurt your child's self-esteem. This will only make the children too nervous and unable to perform to their true level. Although some students are smart, they are prone to impetuousness and pride. Once they are successful in playing and feel complacent, the teacher should be able to be happy but not show it, and point out their shortcomings while expressing praise. In short, we need to have different methods for different children. But there is only one ultimate goal, which is to let children learn piano in a healthy and happy mood, so that their body and mind can develop healthily. We are children’s teachers, and we must also be children’s friends.

4. Children’s correct playing posture is the basis for improving playing accuracy

(1) Body and keyboard

The body should be aligned with the height of the keyboard Sit upright, not stiff, and lean your upper body slightly forward. The purpose of leaning forward is to transfer all the strength of the whole body to the fingertips of both hands when playing. But the spine should not be bent, and the back and shoulders should be loose and unremitting.

(2) Elbows and forearms

When placing your hands on the keyboard, keep the height of your elbows and forearms consistent with the keyboard.

(3) Upper and lower limbs

Sit at such a distance that your upper body leans forward slightly, your arms hang naturally, and your left and right elbows naturally relax and expand slightly to the outside of the body; ** then Note that the thighs to the knees should be slightly sloped, the knees should be under the edge of the piano, and the feet should be slightly stretched forward.

(4) Fingers and touch keys

The hand shape should be relaxed, the fingers should be naturally bent, and the pads of the fingertips should be used to touch the keys. The palm joints are naturally arched, as if holding a ball, and the wrists are approximately parallel to the keyboard. The first joint of the big finger only touches the edge of the key with the side of the finger. Pay attention to the correct alignment of the fourth and little fingers.

This is the basic posture for playing the piano correctly. For beginners, we need to vividly inspire them. Teaching children to play with correct postures mainly uses demonstration methods, allowing young children to imitate, and using some simple metaphors to inspire. For example, before learning to play, you must first learn to relax your arms and wrists without being tense or stiff. Just like holding a pen in your hand, it will fall as soon as you put it down. If there is no table to block it, it will fall to the ground instead of hanging in the air. The same goes for relaxing your arms. Just like something dropped to the ground, your arms should droop naturally. You must not hold your arms and hang them in the air. If you hang them in the air, you are not completely relaxed.

Playing the piano with scientific playing postures since childhood, you will gradually realize that correctly using the weight and strength of the body to touch the keys can improve the accuracy of playing.

5. Cultivate children’s artistic inspiration

(1) Enlighten children’s strong interest in music

Through combined teaching with audio tapes, cultural evening parties and multimedia smart pianos Various channels such as APP allow children to appreciate and have more contact with the vast world of music. Let children listen to more music and watch other people play more, continuously enhance their sensitivity to the beauty of music and desire for expression through comparison, and create opportunities for children to be happy to play to others on various occasions. It is necessary to encourage and praise more, stimulate their interest in learning piano through encouragement and praise, and give them recognition. Let them have a greater desire to learn piano, and at the same time put forward higher requirements for themselves.

(2) Give more demonstration performances to enhance intuitive perceptual understanding

Let children have a certain perceptual understanding of music and more intuitively and clearly understand the key points of playing, which requires enlightenment Teachers should set more appropriate examples. Every time you demonstrate, the speed should be moderate, not too fast or too slow. The intensity should be accurate and the contrast should be clear.

Children have strong imitation abilities and will be deeply impressed by demonstrations. The purpose of our demonstrations is to guide them in the right direction, not to let them imitate blindly. Therefore, we must encourage children to play creatively and be good at expressing their own personality characteristics. , giving them sufficient imagination space to broaden children's musical horizons, improve music perception and interest in learning piano, which is also a manifestation of the artistry of enlightenment education.

Summary: The teaching and learning form of group classes has been recognized as the most educational teaching form abroad. Learning various arts through group classes can quickly allow children to truly come into contact with the essence of art and music. , so as to achieve our real purpose of letting children learn art. It’s not just about playing and singing, it’s about falling in love with music, falling in love with art, and realizing the beauty of music from your heart.

6. Summary of Kindergarten Piano Lesson Education

The benefits of learning piano! With the reform of the national education system, improving the quality of education for all is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. The concept of multiculturalism continues to spread around the world, and developing children's multiple intelligences has become a focus of educational attention. The three-hundred-year history of piano art can be said to have accompanied the development of human civilization. If we want to truly feel and appreciate art, the most effective way is to start by learning a musical instrument. The piano is known as the king of musical instruments. Through human practice and scientists’ analysis, learning the piano can improve abilities in eight aspects: 1. Rich imagination 2. Rigorous thinking ability 3. Bold expression ability 4. Deep understanding ability 5. Excellent memory ability 6. Good coordination ability 7. Calm control ability 8. Outstanding organizational skills. The famous educator and pianist Professor Negoz once said: "If it were up to me, piano should be a compulsory course for every student." Just as the famous educator Menuhin said, no matter how many prisons are built, it will not matter. Peace and beauty in the world are meaningless. More music academies and music education institutions should be established. This is the most effective way to maintain human peace and improve the spiritual quality of all mankind. The best age to learn piano is between 3 and 4 years old. Children's perception of music touches the child's soul. At this age, it is easiest to inspire. In terms of physical development and movement coordination, playing the piano can fully train the small muscles of the child's fingers. Thereby promoting brain development. 1. Rich imagination: Piano music shapes the musical image through unique musical language. It is expressed by a series of visual characteristics such as voice, modality, and dynamics. Use these vivid and perceptible musical images to induce and infect children, allowing them to develop rich imaginations. 2. Rigorous thinking ability: In the process of practicing piano, you must strictly complete the markings on the score, use various musical expression methods to express the author's creative intentions, and repeatedly experience the process of change, so that you can Cultivate children's rigorous thinking ability. 3. Bold expressive ability: Piano art has developed from very rigorous techniques (classical period) to (romantic period) with people and life as the main line, unfolding the true feelings of the human emotional world. The composer's composition structure and style have undergone major changes. The changes allow the performers to become "poets" and "painters" in the music, boldly expressing themselves in the ocean of music, and expressing themselves to their heart's content. 4. Deep understanding ability: To play a piece of music well, you not only need to stay on the surface of the music, but also understand the background of the music, national style, and regional differences, think deeply, and learn to understand and feel. It truly achieves the importance of the work to that period and the profound reflection of that period of history. 5. Excellent memory ability: How many notes, rhythm patterns, fingerings, and expressions are there in a piece of music? To complete a piece of music, we need to remember, and we need to be able to remember every note, rhythm, and fingering in the score well. , Expressive language is not a simple memory, but a series of memories that combine voice, modality, dynamics, etc. It is a three-dimensional memory of space and time. If you exercise your memory like this for a long time, you must have excellent memory. 6. Good coordination ability: I think there is no more effective way to develop the coordination ability of both hands than playing the piano. Through the training of the left hand, the child's right brain is undoubtedly developed, resulting in a balanced development of the left and right brains. Through the general performance of children learning the piano, we have observed that children who learn the piano are better than children who have not learned the piano in terms of dancing, painting and movement coordination, and their learning abilities are outstanding in all aspects. 7. Calm control ability: Playing the piano requires concentration. In terms of grasping the overall rhythm of the music, the heart is like a "bell" controlling everything in a balanced manner. Such unremitting demands on oneself are essential in terms of completeness and unity of the repertoire. , and also improves inner control ability. 8. Outstanding organizational ability: Among musical instruments, the piano, with its unique multi-sound effects, can develop into the sound effects of a band. The music is very layered and complex. A large-scale piece of music is often conducted by the performer, organizing all genres together. It is a very rigorous and creative organizational activity, thus cultivating outstanding organizational skills.

Through your child's piano learning, you will have a deeper understanding of the benefits of your child's piano learning. I hope you can encourage your child to learn piano and love music for the sake of your child's happy growth and improvement of abilities in all aspects, starting today! ********************************************** Learn Piano The meaning of learning piano can be said from many different perspectives. If expressed in the most general language, it is: improving people's quality. Advanced piano art will make people broad-minded and broaden their horizons, sublimate their spiritual world, and inspire people to pursue beautiful things in a civilized and moral way. This is the improvement of human quality. Piano master Hoffmann said: "... When a pianist forgets the world and faces his instrument alone, he can talk to his deepest and noblest self... This kind of spiritual wealth cannot be paid with money. It cannot be purchased by force." A complete music school. Because what you learn here will not be a single, certain aspect of music knowledge; rather, you will learn all the most important basic qualities that make up the art of music, and understand the vocabulary, language and grammar used in musical thinking. There is melody knowledge here, as well as music aesthetic knowledge such as music image, music content, music artistic conception and music style; there is also knowledge about how all these aspects are integrated into an organic whole. In fact, what you learn in piano learning will not only be about playing the piano, but also about comprehensively improving your musical sensitivity, thinking and understanding. With improved abilities in this area, we will have a higher understanding and appreciation of the works we play ourselves, the works played by others, and even chamber music, symphonies and other non-piano music works. Piano learning also has two characteristics: First, piano learning and playing are both a "vivid dynamic system", which always requires auditory concentration and sensitivity, active activities of the ten fingers independently, different movements of the hands and their Coordinated cooperation with all body limbs. Long-lasting exercise in this vivid dynamic system will inevitably have a beneficial impact on the healthy growth of people's physiology, psychology and thinking. Secondly, playing the piano requires relatively skilled techniques and techniques. Mastering techniques and skills requires regular, scientific, and long-term training. This kind of training requires perseverance, endurance, confidence and courage. Therefore, piano learning has a good effect on cultivating strong will, tenacious and enterprising quality, as well as a practical, rigorous and scientific style. The result of these two characteristics is the improvement of people's overall ability. We have discovered that among the primary and secondary school students around us who play piano well, those who play the piano well are often also students with excellent grades in school. Professor Negoz, a former Soviet piano educator and performer, once said that if it were up to him, piano should be a compulsory course for every middle school student. Indeed, if it is possible for everyone to learn piano to varying degrees, it will certainly promote the historical process of building a truly civilized and literate modern society. ************************************************ Children's motivation to learn piano The process of developing and sustaining piano learning is almost as slow as a child's growth. Many teachers are willing to give their children grades, and many parents also hope that their children can make progress as soon as possible. This psychological background is reflected in always giving students some more difficult works in teaching activities. Now we want to point out that the difficulty of a work for students should not only be considered from the scientific basis of teaching, but also from the perspective of piano learning motivation. We knew earlier that the level of learning effort has a significant impact on the formation of further learning needs. If the subject is too difficult, on the one hand, students will have to make great efforts to play it, and on the other hand, even if they succeed, the quality will always be difficult to meet the teacher's requirements. The characteristics of piano playing as a performing art determine that teachers often use stage performance level to ask students during class. Therefore, reaching the stage performance level is actually the learning goal of a piece of music, and a difficult piece of music For students, it is entirely possible that no matter how hard they try, they will not be able to achieve a minimum level of stage performance. Therefore, when the piece of music has to be "passed", the end of learning the piece will not bring a real sense of learning completion, nor will there be an experience of achievement after the learning goal is achieved, which is unsatisfactory. Learning effectiveness is difficult to promote new learning motivation. On the other hand, excessive effort is an unpleasant experience in itself. It makes the practice of piano a very painful process, and it is impossible to achieve success during the activity. It also causes students to often avoid practicing. An important reason. Therefore, starting from

7. Introduction to Piano Tutorial for Young Children

8. What are the benefits of children’s group piano lessons for children to learn piano?

At the beginning, you can consider using group lessons for enlightenment. Group lessons are more lively and interesting, such as ensembles and duets. , rotation and other methods can stimulate children's interest.

But there are also certain disadvantages. For example, it is difficult for teachers to provide customized guidance for a certain child, such as force exertion techniques, relaxation techniques, finger standing, etc. Therefore, in the early stage, a combination of group and one-to-one combinations can be considered. Depending on the level, it will usually be one-to-one.
