英語播客初級版 第234期(外教講解):學(xué)鋼琴

Charles:Hi Cody, how did practicing go this week?
Cody:Well I had several tests and an oral presentation this week so I didn’t get a chance to memorize the second page, but I think I mastered the tricky section.
Charles:Great! Warm up with some scales and arpeggios first. Good, good. This week, work on keeping the rhythm steady when you play the last part with the sixteenth note . Now let’s take a look at this tricky section.
Cody:Charles? Before I start I was wondering if it was ok if I put a small crescendo in here and then decrescendo back to pianissimo again over here?
Charles:It might work. I’ll have to hear it . Show me what you’ve done. Not bad , not bad
Cody:It was horrible! I played play it much better at home!
Charles:It’s just nerves. Just play the right hand for now. One two three four five six, ta ti tri-ple-ti. Good, good. Don’t forget the accidentals! The key signature says that note should be a G-sharp but now it’s a G-natural. Now add the bass clef. You’re going too fast. Remember the tempo for this piece is andante.
Cody:Is that better?
Charles:Yes, much better. Watch where you lift your foot off the pedal. What was that?
Cody:Sorry! The stretch for that octave is always hard to make.
Charles:That’s ok, keep going, you’re moving ahead by leaps and bounds. Watch your dynamics! Keep your elbows lifted. Remember to stroke the keys, don’t pound. That’s better! Remember that as a pianist or any other musician, your technique will be what separates you from the pack just as much or more so as your musicianship.

Charles: 你好，Cody，練得怎么樣了?
Cody: 這周我參加了幾個考試以及口頭陳述，所以我沒有機會記住第2頁，但是我想我掌握了棘手的部分。
Charles: 很棒。先彈些音符和 和音急速彈奏來熱熱身。好的，這周當你彈奏16音高的最后一部分時，要繼續(xù)使節(jié)奏保持平穩(wěn)?，F(xiàn)在我們來看下難的這部分。
Cody: Charles?在我開始之前，我在想如果在此處漸增聲音然后再減弱到極柔如何?
Charles: 也許不錯。我必須得聽聽。給我顯示下。不錯，不錯。
Cody: 太糟了。我在家談得更好。
Charles: 123456.很好，別忘了變調(diào)的臨時符號。音調(diào)顯示現(xiàn)在應(yīng)該是G聲調(diào)，但現(xiàn)在是G小調(diào)?，F(xiàn)在加些男低音譜號。你彈得太快了。這段的拍子是舒緩的。
Cody: 好些了嗎?
Charles: 好多了。注意你將腳從踏板上移開時所放的位置。那是怎么回事?
Cody: 對不起。八音度延伸太難了。
Charles: 沒事，繼續(xù)，你快了很多，注意力度。舉起 手肘。記得去敲琴鍵，不要猛擊。好多了。記住作為鋼琴家或音樂家，你彈奏的技術(shù)就是使你與大眾區(qū)分開來的東西，和音樂鑒賞力很相似。
