Keyboard, piano keyboard instruments belong, both in the playing skills have many similarities, but play very different approach.
The keyboard and switched to piano students in learning some of the ways to avoid learning the keyboard to go to the piano, learn piano through the rational use of effective control and good shoulder, arm, wrist, fingers, touch the correct key, proficient in the use of each kind of musical skills, accurate processing of music works of art.
First, the similarities and differences of the organ and piano
Organ and piano belong to keyboards, keyboard layout exactly the same (keyboard slightly narrower range, generally 61-key or 73-key), and basically the same fingering, but they sound different principles. Piano sound volume with the touch key pressure changes in the size, strength and different ways touch bond issue is not the same tone. Keyboard Keyboard softer, shallower, hand-touch key that is to sound, even now there are efforts key keyboard, which is also a great feeling to play piano with the difference. Piano belongs to classical instruments, the performance is more subtle deep way, and modern keyboard instruments, particularly suitable for the performance of a variety of strong dynamic and modern dance music.
Second, the advantages of learning the keyboard and switched to piano and Problems
1. Advantages: As part of the automatic accompaniment keyboard can play a role to some extent in metronome to help students strengthen a sense of rhythm. Keyboard formal training students to read music faster, more flexible fingers on the keyboard familiar, it is generally strong sight-reading ability. Modern and advanced auto-accompaniment keyboard types are hundreds of species, make their musical understanding and expressiveness greatly enriched.
2. Problems: Because the keyboard and piano on sound principles and different touch, causing students in learning to play the piano, playing some habits brought on piano keyboard playing. Such as: Since the keyboard keys shallow touch ring, flower learners often overlooked training metacarpal and wrist movement, often not used to the finger strength to the bottom of the keyboard, shoulder, arm and wrist are often not fit to, from the shoulder a power arm wrist a fingertip blocked, not smooth, resulting in sound Xiabu Qu, so when you play the piano finger can feel powerless, it is difficult to manage. When playing fortissimo, wrist and forearm are often hard to press down so that the shoulder, arm, wrist and finger tight. When legato, finger lack of independence, will not use the transfer of power, resulting in even sound like connecting the unconnected.
Third, for the problem should take appropriate measures
1. finger training: studied piano keyboard students in the early stages of learning, must be the same as for beginners, starting from the finger exercises finger training is the first one. All music express speed, strength, tone controls are done through finger. Finger training must start training from the finger independence, finger movements, mainly the metacarpophalangeal joint movement, to have the support of the whole palm sense.
Non-beginners play legato, to one finger, one tone to practice. Experience serious shoulder, arm, elbow to relax, to handle the boom arm band to natural weight fall, do not use force, fingertip to stand, find the "sound bomb in the end" feeling.
By doing finger exercises legato, slow down and let the fingers have greater activity, the finger must be ease of lift. Under the key moment to be fast, metacarpal joint force, and it would play in the end, fingers grainy.
2. The use of wrist: Playing the piano requires a lot of force, this force from the shoulder, the wrist joint until the fingertips through the arm, wrist is the hub of power transmission, in order to force open, should the training was flexible and elastic wrist . The learning process can allow students to do the longitudinal and transverse wrist exercises.
Transverse Exercise: To emphasize the actual position of the hand while playing constantly changing, but the basic state hand type can not be changed. About the role of the wrist is horizontal adjustment at any time, so that each finger are appropriate and reasonable position. Note fingers and forearms parallel as much as possible, this will help relax your wrist, so smooth power delivery to the fingertips.
Portrait of practice: when you play a non-legato, the right-hand button on, raising his hand with a wrist drive, and natural touch key. When dropping the wrist have control, we can not relax, play the sound in the end.
3. touch Exercise: finger touch keys should be different according to the different sounds tactile requirements to produce different sounds. Crisp and smooth when you play the song, finger-touch key rate to be quick, strong melodic tunes played, touch the key rate may be slower, so the center of gravity to keep at your fingertips, and smooth handover to the next sound. In addition to finger strength, the hands, arms and even body weight should be combined with the use up. As we play a strong and effective voice, the next key to faster, be strong, stronger rebound; the sound when played soft, use a very small volume. Body to relax, strong, mute just the moment to be of value in the touch keys.
Because sound principles of different piano keyboard touch key is much more complicated than that. Proper guidance and strict requirements, students gradually overcome impatience to get down to serious pondering piano playing experience and skills, after a period of practice, will be made great progress in terms of piano playing by the teacher.
