The introductory methods for learning to read music include learning to recognize music and reading music like learning to read, cultivating and training rhythm concepts step by step, and learning to read music without playing the piano.
1. Learn to recognize sounds and music just like learning to read.
1. The writing is much more complicated than the staff. The writing can be mastered, let alone reading music. But if you don't pay attention to the method, the process of reading music will take a long time. Each space and line position on the staff represents a note with a fixed pitch. There is no repetition. Using the memory method to identify sounds is both fast and reliable. Many children do not rely on memory but "climb" the grid from line to line. That is really not a good method.
2. For example: the note of middle C has a fixed position on the score and a fixed position on the piano keyboard. It has a note name and a roll call. Remember these, even if it takes two days It takes time to repeat and consolidate all this, so that the child can accurately recognize, sing, read and play it at a glance. This is really more important than recognizing seven or eight tones and seeing any one of them is specious.
2. The cultivation and training of rhythm concepts should be done step by step and gradually become more complex.
1. The first step is to memorize the shapes and names of commonly used notes. Then there is the concept of establishing the exact shooting point of the unit shot. Find a way to turn something as intangible as beat, which is actually a concept of time, into something tangible that children can grasp.
2. The metronome's swing and sound are both tangible. It swings once and sounds one beat. With the accurate beat point of the metronome, we can train the children to grasp this beat point internally.
3. When the heart can accurately express this rhythm concept, the brain will be able to direct the fingers to play according to the prescribed rhythm of the note duration.
3. Learn to read music without playing the piano.
1. Play music games with your children and do some vivid music reading exercises first, which will be more beneficial and effective. If you learn to "study" music scores before playing the piano, read them like a book.
2. Concentrate the energy that needs to be manipulated with your fingers after playing the piano on clearly seeing the clef, key signature, and time signature in advance. Pay attention to other symbols on the score except for notes, and recognize the notes first. high.
3. Think about the duration and relationship of the notes, so that your mind is prepared before taking action. You will definitely overcome the possible omissions caused by fixating on a certain note after playing the piano, and reduce blindness. This avoids various errors.
