Abrsm, Henle, Peter都是較可靠的version，但要check有否出版Mozart Sonatina

Hi yanni,

請問校際音樂節#145 Sonatina 組(Viennese Sonatinas by Mzart) 用哪個 edition 比較好呢？

Yanni

是否同一位老師教呢？因不同老師會對曲目有不同的處理。Anyway，先各自'對準'拍子練習，速度不須快。

My son will join the Piano duet (junior). This is his first time to play duet. He cannot meet his partner so often, how can he prepare better?

1)手腕是否太低?
2)坐姿適當嗎？

4歲半可以練2hrs！如屬自願，就ok啦，否則唔駛咁耐，大人都未必有這能耐。通常學生唔會做唔到'企好'手指，只係佢吔唔'自覺'去做。用一些已彈熟的曲目去練企手指，等佢only focus 在手指，唔須要顧揾音數拍子。叫佢做一次正確and一次唔正確的姿勢，要佢自己feel，然後再做正確，(可重覆進行)。video拍低彈琴狀況，要他分辨good/bad。

Hi Yanni
我囝囝練2個鐘.係佢自願架..有時放假,佢係屋企無野,就會自動去練琴..練左約1個多小時,就會叫我再陪佢練..我同佢計過,佢真係可以練足兩個鐘...有時我自己係大人都覺得好tired....但佢就好似好enjoy咁...
佢而家坐姿都ok,之前我唔知原來佢張琴椅係唔夠高(我果張無得較高矮),個老師一黎到,就同我講佢手腕趺左落黎,攪到佢姿勢唔得...唔知係咪一開始時就錯左..而家好難改..
我試過同佢分開彈,佢唔係彈歌時,真係可以用指尖,但佢一睇譜彈琴,就會手指扁左,成日要提住佢.....
你個提議幾好喎.等我用viedo拍底佢既手勢等佢自己睇下先..
唔該晒

Thanks for your advice!

My son and his partner are taught by the same teacher. What is the level/grade for this duet (junior) piece?

aagirls, 362436,

多謝你地回覆, 我女8歲, 我已提過好多次, 話考官好好人架!你練左咁耐, 有努力過, 考完試可鬆哂啦! 佢答番我轉頭 :"唔係你考,你更係唔驚啦!" (比佢激死!) 不過, 我已同佢講,只要你盡力,你考幾多分, 媽媽都唔會介意.
昨晚我有把 aagirls 的經驗講比佢聽, 之後佢又無提擔心考試. 我真係希望佢定d就好.

請問你地考前, 有無特別需要租三角琴練習?

thank you!

Yanni

此曲並不難，右手手腕要保持彈性，不可緊。左手是melody, 注意keep 2拍節奏，重音落在第一beat。

Dear Yanni

睇左你咁講, 我個心都定d, 囡囡今年7歲, 學緊grade 1, 佢就正正係你所講, 一上左grade 1, 就話難左, 冇咩心機練琴, 如果我唔陪佢彈, 佢就會好求其, 對d好聽既歌就好d, 一些難d又唔多好聽既歌, 就亂咁黎, 仲好快彈完o 有一次, 佢比我 鬧到話唔想學 :cry:  

最近, 我日日陪佢彈, 又覺得佢有心機左和彈得好左好多, 我真係希望佢大個d 會自動自覺練琴, 和喜歡彈琴啦 :wink:

在學琴的生涯，practice重要過任何因素。
no practice=no interest
'先緊後鬆'係我給各家長的意見，'緊'唔代表會令小朋友害怕，而係要有練習的timetable，小朋友自律性有限，如家長取'放任'政策，我敢肯定give up 率係100%。當過了2級，小朋友已養成練琴的習慣，認音已有一定程度的掌握，新歌容易上手=increase interest，家長唔再要打打鬧

Yanni,

妳好, 我想幫囡囡報學鋼琴, 請問佢2歲6個月可以學嗎? 有無地方可介紹(九龍區)? 另...應注意什麼? thanks!!

Yanni

2歲6個月未適合個別課，除非父母懂彈琴。你可join音樂班，但揾D適合2-3歲，各大琴行都有辦。

Dear muimui
It is always difficult as being a piano student/ a pianist is quite a 'lonely' process, as one needs to learn to be very discipline and learn to deal with his/ her own problems/ difficulties.  Maybe encourage her to play with others (say on Saxophone with your son) to enhance interest, if she has spare time.

But on the other hand, once she learnt how to deal with difficulties on music, she will learn how to deal with problems in her daily life - quite a useful skill ar.

For your son, it is good that he is interested laa.  Of course, to take music as a career is totally different, quite a difficult decision, as it needs a lot of dedication,

all the best

To Chrisding,

多謝你的資料,因我女兒話想多一張cert比人睇,part-time教琴,所以考Trinity diplomas.我個仔見家姐學,佢又話要學(佢明年考八級)其實男仔考完都無人搵去教琴,佢以前有學sexphone,叫佢學返sexphone好過,佢又唔肯,遲的再哄佢,
唉子女學琴,父母真不輕鬆,除了金錢,重好勞氣,個女學咗琴多年仍要經常提佢练琴

Just join in to chat if you dont mind:

For keyboard, it is a bit difficult, even it is a full size keyboard, the weight of the keys are difficult - the child will find it very hard to adapt to real piano.

For 數碼琴 like Claviola- sightly better, as their keys have certain weight, and are relative touch-sensitive.  But maybe after 6 months/ 1 year, when you are more sure that the child is interested in learning, you have to think of getting a piano la

Just simply my opinion

Chrisding (also a piano teacher)

Dear Sisima
Just my personal opinion, few things you can do to help the your child not being so nervous at exams:

1) Bring along your child to test the piano and get used of the environment of the exam centre.  Just once or twice will do

2) A lot of the times, examiner rather want the candidate to ask things they do not understand then doing it wrongly - for instance, if the child cannot hear clearly what the examiner asks for (esp in the scales section), instead of playing it wrongly (most frequent case is the child mixed up Left and right hand, or legato scale and staccato scale), the examiner rather the kid ask them.  Also the interpreter is usually quite willing to help, and it is their job to explain, when the kid raise a question.  Of course if the kid does not express that he/ she doesnt understand, then both the examiner and interpreterwill just carry on

3) some people find that try to imagine the examination process helps - ask the child to imagine how he/ she will greet the examiner, how the examiner will smile back and talkto them, how he/ she sits on the piano and play his/ her first piece etc....

4) do eat something - not too full, but eat something before going in to the examination room.  Some people find chocolate helps, as usually when we are nervous, we used up a lot of energy.

5) most examiners are very nice, and they are usually very kind, esp to the lower grade.  And they hope to see the kids being expressive and musical too.  So instead of just playing the piece and go away, encourage the student to be imaginative

Hope this helps - I used to be an interpreter, hence I know

請問大家有什麼方法令小朋友考琴試時沒有那麼驚.
因小女下個月要考, 上星期開始佢已經話好驚, 驚到時唔識彈,又驚聽唔明考官講什麼野? 其實已請左中文翻譯員, 佢都係無信心, 我已開解佢好多次, 但係一提考試佢就話好驚,好緊張. 請問大家的子女, 考琴前有否比情況, 點樣可以解決到?
請指教!

Dear chengcc
just join in - feel that Yamaha is a more safe option - of course it depends whether it is a new piano or a second hand.  

The C models has slightly shallower touch and the U1 has a firmer touch.  But as mentioned, if it is a second hand piano (which I personally have no objection to, but need some experience person to look at it before purchasing), need to look at the soundboard (whether there are cracks - this is very important), and the inside part (ie the strings and hammer - to see whether are are worn out.  Then the touch - if it is very loose, need to rethink.

hope this helps

Hi Yanni

My kid has learned piano for 1 year. Now I am thinking to buy a piano. There are some models I've seen: Bachman B78-UP118 /  Yamaha C109B / Yamaha U118G
Please give me some comments. Thank you very much!

Dear chrisding

Thanks for your advice. I bought Yamaha U 118G in Tomlee already.
