He Shen listened to her performance and nodded silently. read

It's obvious that Zhao Zitong has a piano foundation, but for some reason, her performance is so bad, as if she has no teacher to teach her at all.

In the performance just now, she simulated her own timbre. You can tell that she has an idea of ​​what kind of timbre she wants to play, and you can also hear what her own timbre is like.

Well, if you look at it like this, and if you keep urging her, there is a chance that she will be able to prepare this piece completely in December and then take the state art exam.

Of course, this is only a possibility.

He Shen quickly went through his future plans in his mind, thinking about how to train Zhao Zitong.

After Zhao Zitong finished playing the first sentence, he finally spoke.

"Yes, it's obvious that you have a certain foundation."

"Of course, you don't even know who my dad is! How can I embarrass my dad!"

Zhao Zitong raised his head proudly, but Xi Shuwen's expression changed slightly as he stood aside.

Especially when she heard Zhao Zitong talking about her father, she couldn't help but purse her mouth slightly.

He Shen caught this detail immediately, but he didn't ask any more questions. He came here just to be an ordinary piano teacher and was not qualified to help others solve their family problems.

He Shen continued: "However, your foundation is not strong. Just in your performance, I can clearly find that the strength of your first finger is too strong, which means that the strength of your thumb is too strong."

"One of the consequences of this is that your overall sound is not even, and it is very easy to have sudden accents. So in subsequent exercises, you need to continue to improve this thumb and control the volume of your thumb. ”

"Then, your four or five fingers, that is, your ring finger and little finger, are more severely adhesions. Likewise, you need to do separate exercises for this adhesion."

"Because this sentence contains relatively few things, I didn't see much of the problems with your other basic skills. Next, I will tell you about the problems that occurred in your performance just now."

"The first is the duration. The duration of some notes will be slightly delayed, causing an eighth note to be played as an eighth note and a thirty-second note, causing a little problem with the overall rhythm. This You need to practice to a metronome."

"Then there's the feeling. I can see that you basically imitate my playing method, so I want to ask you, do you know what the first sentence means?"

Zhao Zitong's eyes widened when she heard this. She glanced around blankly, feeling a little dazed for a moment. She didn't react at all to He Shen's question, so she couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

"Um...what does the first sentence mean?"

"How did you understand the first sentence? Why did you understand the first sentence like this?" He Shen explained.

He saw Zhao Zitong's confusion and immediately added.

"Simply speaking, each key has its own meaning. For example, the key of C major represents purity, pureness, singleness, and white paper, which can be dyed by anything, while the key of C major The main chord gives people a feeling of light, like sunshine.”

"So...how do you understand the first sentence?"

Zhao Zitong was completely confused. In all the knowledge about music she had learned before, there was no mention of this aspect at all. So when He Shen asked questions, she didn't know how to answer and couldn't help but hesitate.

"Um, it's just, um...ah, yes! That, hiss...sad feeling?"

She replaced her thoughts with her feelings when she just listened to He Shen's performance, and pretended.

"Look, this, um... this chord! It looks sad at first glance, and slowly goes up. Does this mean that sadness is filled with positive emotions?"

He Shen: "..."

Xi Shuwen: "..."

He Shen and Xi Shuwen standing aside fell silent.

He Shen immediately made a note in his mind that Zhao Zitong did not have a deep understanding of harmony and needed additional tutoring.

This should be a separate study content. She should have no contact with this content at all, and needs additional strengthening.

In that case, I need to adjust my plan for teaching Zhao Zitong.

He Shen suddenly felt a little tired, and the speed of his brain gradually slowed down. He immediately took out a lollipop from his pocket, stuffed it into his mouth, and laid the opened plastic paper flat, making it a perfect match with the previously opened piece of plastic paper. After overlapping together, retract the pockets.

The sugar slowly melted in his mouth, allowing him to slowly recover and continue.

"Well, we'll talk about this later. I'm actually very satisfied with your performance just now..."

He Shen glanced at Zhao Zitong, and then continued: "But, can you change it, I want to have a different feeling."

"Another feeling?"

"Yes, the feeling of having a home and not being able to return, being alone in a foreign country..."

"Living in a foreign land..."

Zhao Zitong lowered her head and began to think. Soon, she put her hand on the piano again and pressed it slowly.

when……

The voice was similar to the previous one, but with a little difference.

Before, it was pure sadness, but now, it was a little confused, uncertain, and detached.

After trying again and again, she was getting closer and closer to the feeling that He Shen had said before.

He Shen's eyes gradually lit up, and he gradually understood how Zhao Zitong should be cultivated.

If that's the case...

Xi Shuwen stood aside, nodded with satisfaction, walked out of the door carefully, waved to He Shen, and whispered.

"Teacher He, come here."

He Shen's thoughts were interrupted, and he looked at Xi Shuwen standing outside the door. Without saying much, he walked to her side, closed the door carefully, looked at Xi Shuwen standing at the door, and said.

"What's wrong? What's the matter? The class is not over yet."

"No, that's enough, Mr. He, I have to admit that you are a very good teacher."

Xi Shuwen waved his hand, walked to the kitchen, took a cup of purified water, took a sip, and continued.

"To be honest, you completely exceeded my expectations, so, unfortunately, I can't hire you as Zitong's sparring teacher!"

"?"

He Shen blinked, didn't react, didn't he say he was very good, why didn't he decide not to hire himself?

The next moment, Xi Shuwen said: "I decided to hire you as her piano teacher, the one who really teaches her piano. I wonder if you, Mr. He Shen, are willing?"
