  • 注意:《跟着小队长》手指尖要用力,不是手腕和手臂用力,相反,手腕手臂是放松的。指尖用力,让声音听来具有穿透力。
  • Bayer

  • 第13,14首:左手很好,右手的问题
    1. 不要用右手打拍子,抖动
    2. 从1指到5指,手腕要滑动,这样动作不会僵硬,声音也听来圆滑。
    3. 手腕滑动时,身体不要一起动。

  • Thompson

  • 1. 轻轻划 :先分手弹。target practice 5 遍。

  • 第15首 有断连奏 (连断音 portato),介于断奏与连奏之间。手指象粘了胶水一样,要断又粘。

    Appendix
    portato is actually articulated legato, where the notes are played almost legato.
    Staccato signifies an unconnected note, which is short and detached. In music, a dot is usually placed above to express that these notes should be distinctly separate while also quick in length. This does not, however, alter the rhythm of the music and the remainder of the time allotted for each staccato note is played as rest.
    legato: musical notes are played or sung smoothly and connected. That is, in transitioning from note to note, there should be no intervening silence

    Check Homework
    New Lesson
  • Thompsons: 2 new pieces.

  • Bayer

  • New book--Finger Power

  • 2 pieces. Each one practise for 5 times a day.
  • New book--Sight Reading

  • 1 piece each day, 7 pieces a week.
    Steps for sight reading
    1. Check Clef
    2. Check time signature (meter signature), is 2/4, 3/4, 4/4, or?
    3. Check finger position. Right hand thumb(1), left hand pinkie(5). This week, the 7 pieces are all C position, meaning both right 1 and left 5 are rested on C.

    Thompson检查作业:
    《钟声响了》PASS
    《太阳升起》PASS

    新课
    《芭蕾演员》:F大调(F major)。所有的B变为降B(B flat)。之前的升降记号是临时升降记号,只管一个小节。调号中升降号管整首曲子。(keysignature)。
    《三只瞎老鼠》:G大调(G major)。所有的F变为升F(F sharp)。


    拜厄
    1。检查曲子9和10。
    2。新曲子11和12。

    弹曲注意:
    1。Thompson要采用吊腕的方式。
    2。一定要用节拍器,培养内心的节奏感,稳健的tempo。
    3。唱谱一定要唱出来。以后看到长的难的曲谱,那时再练习唱谱会很难;好几页长的曲谱的记忆,也需要有唱谱的能力,才可以帮助记忆。
    4。拜厄弹奏,左手要贴着键盘,不要太过用力的敲击。
    5。拜厄弹奏,右手的手指动作太多(如手指抬起,用力敲键等动作)。要注意手腕的移动,利用手腕的力量,(wrist rotation),这样声音会更加圆滑优美。
    6。music phrase: 乐句。如讲话中的语句一样。通常4个measure是一个乐句,也有6个8个的。每个乐句中的小节是连贯的,不要弹成各自独立的音符。句与句之间的断句,手腕提起进行呼吸。这样音乐听起来会有美感。拜厄中乐谱上的连线,即表明了一个乐句。
