Tell me, how did you buy a guqin?

The curvature of the surface is moderate, which is convenient for the lower finger to press the strings; The spacing between the strings is moderate, the hand is smooth, and the emblem position is accurate. All of them require strict attention when choosing.

When choosing a guqin, the most important thing is to look at the timbre. Leng Qian, a pianist in the Ming Dynasty, conducted an in-depth study of the timbre of the qin in the "Book of Qin", and summarized the theory of "nine virtues", which had a great impact on later generations.

When the left hand presses the string, it feels a little hard to resist the fingers. The strings should not be too high from the face, and the strings that are too high are called finger resistance, which will affect the way of playing the piano and even tire the fingers. In terms of the position of the seven emblems, the strings should be about centimeters away from the surface of the piano.

The strings should not be too high, as high will be finger-resistant, and it will be difficult to play with the right hand and uncomfortable to press the strings with the left hand; It should not be too low, and if it is low, the strings will beat the surface; The surface is flat and even, and there is no brake sound.

Press the strings with the left hand and the surface with the right hand, and move the left hand left and right while pressing the strings. Sometimes the strings are not straight, there will be sand sounds, which has nothing to do with the quality of the piano itself, and the strings need to be replaced.

When the right hand plays the empty string, the empty string beats the surface of the piano to play the board. Press the strings with the left hand and the piano surface, play the strings with the right hand, and move the left hand left and right while pressing the strings.

Piano people with different personalities, knowledge, and cultivation have different requirements for the choice of the piano, so the choice of the piano can follow the rules and regulations, but there is no fixed law, just like yourself.

As an ancient musical instrument, the guqin has an old, clear, rich, mellow and simple sound. The "Four Virtues" :(firm, loose, crisp, and smooth) and the "Nine Virtues" (strange, ancient, transparent, moist, quiet, round, even, clear, and fragrant) are the ancients' summary of the guqin's timbre.

The easiest, the first finger, the last paper! **More than 15,000 (practice piano)! Guqin should be raised, play more, and use medical wax appropriately, Vaseline! Beginners buy pianos from the teacher, to put it bluntly, it is to have a good relationship with the teacher, and it is never worth the teacher's needs**!

Beginners will not choose the piano, rashly buy the piano is too risky, so first rent a bed of piano to use, wait for a year and a half of learning, have a certain ability to identify, and then prepare to buy the piano, although it is not necessarily necessary to choose the best cost-effective piano, but this risk will be smaller.

Before learning the piano, he spent thousands of dollars to buy things first, and he was destined to not learn the piano well.

I bought the same brand as the teacher's piano.

Guqin purchase method: wood selection, listening, feel, color identification.

1. Selection of wood

At present, most of the guqins circulating in the market are made of paulownia or fir wood. These two materials have three common characteristics: first, good vibration and easy to take sound; second, it is stable in nature and not easy to deform; The third is in line with the fun of the piano, not quiet or noisy, and neutralizing Zhiya.

The bottom of the piano is mostly made of catalpa wood and nanmu.

2. Listening

The guqin has three kinds of timbres (scatter, overtone, and press tone), which is different from any other musical instrument and is also a premise for the guqin to express tension. Therefore, when choosing a piano, all three notes should be compared and auditioned. The timbre and volume of scattered tones, press tones and overtones should be unified, and the sound should have a sense of sinking and not scattered, and the charm should be long.

The timbre of the guqin is related to the choice of wood and groove belly system.

All the materials of the guqin are to pave the way for a good timbre, so the most important thing to choose a good qin is that it has the sound you like. The timbre of any two different guqins will be different, even if they are taken from the same tree and made by the same qinist and they will produce different timbres.

The groove system is one of the biggest reasons affecting the timbre, because the sound of the guqin lies in the vibration between the surface and the bottom plate, and the depth of the groove is the most fundamental cause of the vibration difference. Every luthier will distinguish the sound after digging the groove belly when digging the piano, and then slowly trim the groove until he is satisfied.

3. Hand feel

For those who play the piano, a guqin that feels comfortable is definitely the biggest motivation for you to persist in the future. The worst thing in the feel is the anti-finger and the board. The finger resistance is due to the high Yue Shang, which makes the strings too far away from the emotion, and the left hand is strained when playing the press note, which affects the fingering and performance.

The finger-resistant qin often causes damage to the opponent during the playing process, and in the long run, it will inevitably make the guqin far away.

The playing board is due to the low mountain mountain, and the phenomenon of the strings beating the surface of the piano appears when the right hand plays. What's more, fingers can also slap the surface. A piano without finger resistance, in the position of the seven emblems, the strings should be about centimeters away from the surface of the piano.

4. Color discrimination

The most intuitive thing for a piano with good color is to look at the lacquer surface. Good paint is as clear as oil, which can shine on the head of a beauty. Therefore, the surface of the piano made with raw lacquer as the material and carefully polished many times must be translucent.

If the surface itself is a little dull, rubbing the surface firmly with the palm of your hand will have a noticeable effect, and the lacquer will instantly brighten. This is why it is said that a good piano will get better and better, which is not only reflected in the timbre, but also in the lacquer. The longer you play, the more the friction between your fingers and the surface will make the lacquer more and more shiny.

1. Choosing a guqin, no bad sound, no anti-finger, no playing board, and comfortable feel are the basic requirements of a professional guqin.

2. Then there is the sound quality, the sound is mellow, rich, loose, and the charm is not empty and the charm is the best.

3. The material of the panel is paulownia wood, Shannabi, and fir, and the material of the bottom plate is hard materials such as catalpa, catalpa, and Tsubaki.

4. The topcoat is best matched with traditional lacquer (raw lacquer) and antler cream. Slow Mountain.

I like Ms. Wang Yanxi's piano, it sounds good.
