The difference between electronic organ and piano
1, key. The electronic organ has only 6 1 keys, while the piano has 88 keys.

2, posture and fingering. The playing posture of the electronic organ is exactly the same as that of the piano, and the fingering is also exactly the same.

3, the principle of vocalization. Piano is a percussion instrument, which is the sound made by tapping the strings through the piano vertebrae. The electronic organ is an electronic musical instrument, which simulates the sounds of various musical instruments and then emits them through a synthesizer.

4. timbre. The strength, timbre and expressive force of the piano sound depend entirely on the player's playing skills, or in the vernacular, on his fingers. The strength of the electronic piano is realized by voice control, but now there are also components that simulate the keys of the piano. The sound is controlled by the strength of touching the keys, but it is only simulating the piano. As for the timbre and expression of a single voice, it is basically difficult for the performer to express it freely.

In addition, the piano is known as the "king of musical instruments", and the electronic organ or keyboard is a member of the electronic band, which can also reflect their different values.

5. The origin of piano and electronic organ. They are two different musical instruments. It just looks a bit like them because they all have black and white keyboards, just like football and basketball. Although they are all round, they are two different ball games, and there is no simple version of who is who. Therefore, the electronic organ is not a simple version of the piano, and the electronic organ does not originate from the piano.

The electronic organ comes not from the piano, but from the organ. The piano has a history of three or four hundred years, while the organ has existed since BC. Some people say it is the "king of musical instruments". The office is very big, and some of them have three floors, so they can't move it. The electronic organ was produced in 1930s in order to play organ music and simulate some musical instruments more conveniently. It wasn't like this then. After 70 years of development and change, it has become what it is now. So it is different from piano in thinking.

6. strength. Some people will say that the piano keyboard is strong, while the electronic piano is soft and has no strength, and it rings when touched. After learning the electronic piano, you can learn it without hands. I must study again. There is something wrong with this, but the electronic organ that rings at the touch of a button is only the most elementary one. At present, the electronic organ with a price above 1000 yuan is generally a strength key. Gravity keys are really good for practicing finger strength. If the students who have reached a certain level of electronic piano turn to the piano, they can directly operate the keyboard, but they will feel different strength and feel different. If they train patiently for about three months, they can basically adapt. The most important electronic organ and piano are recorded in this way, and there is no need to re-learn music theory knowledge.

The sense of gravity is an important attribute of piano. This is one of the manifestations that distinguishes it from other musical instruments, otherwise it would not be called a piano. But for other instruments, the feeling of gravity is not so important. It's not that the electronic organ can't feel the piano, but it has its own emphasis, such as powerful functions; Then the electronic organ is a musical instrument that pays great attention to speed playing. It's too heavy, but it's not good for running. On different occasions, sometimes it is necessary to use a lighter key! But there are also many electronic pianos in modern times, which we call "electronic pianos with weighted keyboards".

7. It is easier to learn electronic piano than piano. Some people think that the left hand of the electronic organ is full of chords, so it is easy. In fact, formal learning of electronic piano requires playing enough piano music, which is very beneficial to the training of left hand. Moreover, the electronic organ has a lot of high-level polyphonic music, and the left hand is not as simple as just pressing a few chords. If you learn more, you will find that there are many things you can do with your left hand, such as changing timbre, operating pulley and switching rhythm. There is also a sub-melody, playing chords for a while, moving to the melody area and interacting with the right hand for a while. For example, "Moonlit Night on a Spring River" and "Flowers Bloom in Shandandan" require both hands to have almost the same level of playing ability.

It is particularly important to note that piano is generally learned with both hands. However, in the current electronic piano teaching system, the right hand flexibly starts a little earlier than the left hand. In the first two or three years, the skill of the left hand was not particularly prominent. Because at this time you have to learn a lot of basic knowledge and music theory knowledge, and then your left hand will slowly catch up. This is determined by the characteristics of the electronic organ. Therefore, a person who has only studied the electronic organ for two or three years says that "there is nothing in the left hand of the electronic organ", which shows that he has not fully understood the electronic organ.

8. If you can play the piano, can you play the electronic organ? Can you play the keyboard and piano? Piano and electronic organ are keyboard instruments, because the arrangement of keyboards is the same, so learning one is of great help to learning the other. But you can't simply say that this will be that. They just have more in common than other musical instruments. It's like the difference between English and German is much smaller than that between English and Chinese, but learning one does not mean learning the other.

Piano learners can play piano music with a range of 6 1 on the electronic piano with a little adaptation. Those who learn electronic piano to a certain extent can play the melody of piano music with a little adaptation, and the strength is certainly similar, but at least that piece of music is no problem for ordinary listeners. As for spending more time, I still need to spend time studying and practicing.

9. So is it better to learn the electronic piano or the piano? If you learn electronic piano, when can you learn to play piano? Or learn the piano first? Other children are learning piano, so will we fall behind in learning electronic organ? Is there an electronic piano major in colleges and universities?

First of all, we must understand that the piano is a good musical instrument, and the electronic organ is not an idle generation. However, a large number of electronic organ learners and their families have not been exposed to high-end electronic organs, but it is wrong to think that electronic organs are only at this level. Incorrect ideas, coupled with the influence of the environment, make people unable to get in touch with good pianos and good electronic piano music materials, which affects people's ideas about electronic pianos. Ai Jingjing, majoring in electronic piano in Wuhan Conservatory of Music, showed us the elegance of advanced electronic piano. The market price of Yamaha -EL-90 she played was10.2 million, and the music she played was very rich and grand. This kind of electronic organ is widely used in Europe, Japan, South Korea and other developed countries, and there are also many learners in coastal cities in China at this stage.

As early as 1990, Shenyang Conservatory of Music opened the electronic organ specialty. In recent years, nine universities, including the Central Committee, Shanghai, Wuhan and Tianjin, and more and more non-key music colleges have also set up electronic piano majors. In other words, it has already become a formal professional discipline. As for the majors related to electronic synthesizer and electronic recording technology, some conservatories and many radio, film and media colleges also have a mixer MIDI related to electronic organ. Although these majors do not directly use the electronic organ, they use a lot of functions of the electronic organ, which is closely related to the electronic organ.

So the electronic organ, like the piano, emerges endlessly. There is no problem of playing the piano when learning. As for which to study, the best answer is: study the one you like! The most beneficial thing to learn the piano is yourself, and you can't go with the flow and follow others. No matter how many people learn electronic organ and piano, countless people give up halfway, and countless people learn successfully. The key is to learn a musical instrument seriously. If the original intention is to learn the piano, then you can buy a piano and start learning. If you don't know what to learn at first, whether you can learn it or not, and the economic conditions are limited, you can buy an electronic piano and learn it for a while, but you must pay attention to the characteristics of the electronic piano and piano, otherwise it will be a waste of time.

If you must learn the electronic organ in order to play the piano, and you don't know when to play it, it depends on the students' interest. If you study well and have a high interest, you have to wait until level 10. If students' interests change, you should change earlier. The fundamental problem of those who say that it is a waste of time to learn the electronic piano after playing the piano is that they have lost all the skills they have learned before, and only emphasized the strength and hand shape one-sidedly, without paying attention to the basic training in the previous electronic piano learning.
