Guzheng nails how to distinguish fingers

The thumb is the biggest, the one that bends.

There are some minor differences in the remaining four, just in length: the longest is the middle finger, the shortest is the ring finger, and the medium is the index finger, but in general, these don't matter.

In order not to make a mistake in the order, you can stack it in order, or you can wrap it in a place like a card or a stick, but after all, it is not a long-term solution, remember the details of the nails, I do this, the nails never mess up, try it!

I don't think there's any difference between the index finger and the middle finger and the ring finger nails, I use tortoiseshell, and the flower name is different, so I can tell the difference, but not by size, but by habitually wearing the nail on a fixed finger. If you can't tell the difference, you can write on tape.

Actually, it doesn't matter, it all depends on your personal habits, everyone plays with different depth of fingers, you can adjust it according to your feelings.

Ask the teacher, the thumb is thicker.

None of those have any special requirements.

4. Cut another piece of tape about a centimeter long.

6. In this way, the nails can be wrapped firmly, and the glue will not be directly in contact with the place where the nails and the flesh are connected, and the fingers will not be damaged again with a small change. Complete the renderings.

The nails of Damu's fingers should be at an angle of about 45 degrees, and the tape should be a little bit away from the end of the nail. For the other four fingers, the tail of the nail (the very round end) is better to be a little in front of the first joint, otherwise it will make the joint very painful. Rest assured, absolutely professional. Huh

1. Prepare the materials to be used.

2. Cut the tape into about 11 cm long segments.

3. One end is well connected with the nail piece.

4. Cut another piece of tape about a centimeter long.

5. Stick the surface and the nail surface at a distance of about 6 mm from the nail piece 6, so that the nail piece can be wrapped firmly, and the glue will not be directly in contact with the place where the nail and the flesh are connected, and the fingers will not be damaged again with a small change.

7. When the nail piece is not in use, it is dipped on the plastic card for easy storage.

The plucking tool of the zither has both fake nails and real nails.

In the past, kite players often plucked the strings with their own real nails, and this method has been used until now. Real nail plucking, although flexible and convenient, but there are many shortcomings. Such as:

1.The thickness of the real nail is not enough, and the sound quality is thin after plucking the strings, especially in the low range.

2.The angle of the plucked strings is limited, and it is difficult to trim the optimal angle to detect the shape, which affects the timbre and technical play.

3.It is easy to break, practice is not secure, and the performance is unreliable.

4.Daily nail retention, ** view, unhygienic.

Fade down due to these shortcomings, real nails such plucked strings"tools"It has been replaced by fake nails that can be trimmed at will. False nails, also known as prosthetic nails, have been used in ancient times, and the zither is played with real nails, called zheng; Playing with false nails is called playing a kite. According to records, as far back as the Jin Dynasty, there were:

Playing the kite with bone claws is more than an inch, in order to refer to it"。It is also in Du Fu's poems"Silver armor for playing kites"sentences.

There are many materials used to make false nails: celluloid sheets, elastic nylon sheets, pangolin sheets, plastic, tortoiseshell, copper, iron, and bone pieces. Recently, there are also people who make steel wire.

There are also many ways to fix false nails: zinc oxide tape is used to wrap around the fingers, leather cases are used to put on the fingers, and there are also false nails stuck on real nails and then wrapped with adhesive tape. False nails are also used in different ways: some are worn on the outside of the finger, while others are worn on the inside.

The shape of the fake nails made also varies: there are those that resemble real nails, and there are those that are long and pointed.

The number of false nails worn is more or less. It can be worn six, that is, one for both hands, one for the index and one for the middle finger, and three can also be worn, that is, one for the right hand, one for the index and one for the middle finger; You can also wear eight, that is, one for both hands, one for the food and one for the ring finger; Or wear nine, that is, one for both hands, one for the large, one for the food, one for the middle, and one for the nameless finger of the right hand. These depend on each person's playing habits and needs.

Fake nails are now sold on the market, so I won't introduce how to make them here.

The method of zither with nails is as follows: shed mold judgmentTools: prosthetics, adhesive tape.

1. Grind your fingers according to your own yard and choose the size of the prosthetic nail reasonably.

2. The length of the adhesive tape used to wear the prosthetic nail is about two and a half circles of the fingers.

3. Place the prosthetic nail on the tape, leaving a little on one side and most on the other. The prosthetic nail of the thumb should be tilted, and the prosthetic nail of the other thumb should be placed upright.

4. The prosthetic nail worn by the thumb should be tilted at an angle of 45 degrees, and the prosthetic nail should be above the first knuckle, which will affect the playing.

5. When wearing a prosthetic nail chain on a finger except for the thumb, the direction of the prosthetic nail is parallel to the direction of the finger, and the prosthetic nail is also above the first knuckle.

6. Finally, wrap the tape neatly. (The little finger does not need to wear a prosthetic nail) <>

Fingering of the Guzheng:

1. Finger shaking: Finger shaking is the main technique used to prolong the sound of dry core music in the guzheng technique. Through the technique of hand shaking to produce the first effect, the nail is continuously and quickly cleaved on a string to achieve the effect of uninterrupted music and continuous sound.

Since the sound of the guzheng and other plucked instruments does not last long, finger shaking has become one of the more important techniques in music performance.

2. Hook and wipe to:

As one of the most common fingering techniques in guzheng performance, "Hooking and Wiping" often appears in large sections in the allegro of music, so there are high requirements for the performance speed, coherence, clarity and granularity of this fingering. And there's a lot of fingering based on that. <>

3. Quick finger order:

Guzheng finger sequence technique system is an innovation of Guzheng technique on the basis of inheriting the tradition, which applies the principle of inertia and symmetry in physics to Guzheng playing, and fundamentally eliminates the artistic defects caused by technical obstacles, so as to more completely express the image of the first place, making it possible to achieve difficult techniques that were out of reach in the past, especially in improving the performance speed.

In the process of practicing fast techniques, it is necessary to master a key point of relaxation, and only by fully relaxing the muscles of the shoulder, arm, elbow, and wrist can all the strength be concentrated on the fingertips. If there is tension in any part of the body, the force will weaken as it reaches the fingertips, and at the same time limit the flexibility of the fingers. It's as if a clear spring came down from above, and suddenly Shendou was cut off halfway.

It is the tip of the nail. The wrist is lowered, the index finger pinched the nail of the big finger, the fingertip plane touched the string, and the degree of plucking down should be pasted to the next line, and when plucking up, leave the piano surface, do a beckoning shape, and do not ask for fast at the beginning.

The essentials of the action of shaking the fingers of the guzheng:

1. Put the hand shape well, and the tiger's mouth is perpendicular to the strings.

2. The nail touch should be shallow.

3. Use wider adhesive tape to withstand the tension of finger shaking.

4. The forearm and wrist are almost in a straight line.

5. Stabilize the hand shape first and then consider the strength.

6. Shake your wrist parallel to the strings.

It is the tip of the nail.

When learning the guzheng, you should have the correct posture, hand shape and playing method. When playing the guzheng, the posture is mostly sitting, generally sitting on the right side of the qin, sitting upright with the center of the body facing the No. 1 piano yard, and the waist is the same height as the panel.

The body is about a fist away from the side panel. Spread your legs apart in a "rest" shape. The shape of the hand is a half-clenched fist, like the shape of a baby's hand when sleeping. When playing, the direction of the finger is parallel to the surface of the zheng, and the front of the prosthetic nail is required to touch the string, and the playing direction of each finger is basically perpendicular to the plane of the zither string, and the force point is on the knuckle.

It is the tip of the nail.

Many people have the wrong posture when practicing finger shaking. You can practice like this: straighten your hands downward, tilt them up a little, don't have too much angle between your hands and your waist, about 40 degrees, and then lift your palms as flat as possible, but don't move your wrists and arms, the angle between the back of your hands and your arms is about 90 degrees, and it doesn't matter if it's a little more or a little less.

Then shake your palms from side to side, but try not to move your arms. If you are proficient, your posture will not be wrong, and you can practice on the piano.

When practicing on the piano, put your wrist out on the edge of the string, put the tip of the nail of your thumb against the string, and then brace (we call it bending, that is, play the string from top to bottom, and then play it again from bottom to top on the same string), but the tone should be clear, and you must practice slowly at first, and then speed up.

That's how I practiced at the beginning, and it worked well, I hope it will help you

It is to touch the string with the tip of the fingernail, and in the finger shaking exercise, it is necessary to practice slowly and then quickly. Don't be in a hurry, pronounce it "evenly and densely". You can practice "splitting" and repeating it first, and then practice shaking, paying attention to the movement of your wrist. Pay attention to the method of piling first.

At the fingertips, practice the splitting slowly and speed up.

Fingertips. You can buy nail sets to practice.

I play it with my fingertips.,Ask the teacher.。。
