比鋼鐵更堅毅的是鑽石-Louis Wei大師課有感

下午五點,三位小主持,Xinyi、Alice和Albert粉墨登場,用中英文雙語詳盡的介紹了本次活動的目的,VYPC俱樂部以及參與嘉賓----本次大師音樂會的主角Louis Wei。接下去近兩個小時, 一共有18位VYPC的琴童們參加了這次的大師音樂會。孩子們都盛裝出席演出,盡全力的表現準備的曲目。依次出場的有Nini、Jessica、Rachel、Sophie、Felix、Jerry、Serena、Jay Jay、Amanda、Tiger、Chole、Albert、Leon、Alice、Xinyi、Ray、Jiaxin和Christina。在每一位琴童表演之後,Louis都會帶著琴譜微笑著上台,給予高質量的點評。孩子們年齡不一,琴技和目前所處的級別各異,但是Louis都很耐心的給予指點。給我印象很深的是不止一次的,Louis會讓孩子試著去哼唱琴譜,邊演奏邊試著打拍子保持節奏的準確。這是一個很重要的提示,不止是對於學琴的孩子,也是對於家長。鋼琴是一名由聲樂而引申出來的藝術,是歌聲的升級,但歌唱靈魂的工具,學習鋼琴不但要學習技巧,更要體會音樂本身的靈魂。(点击查看活动报道、视频、照片)
At five in the afternoon, the three young hosts Xinyi, Alice and Albert came together to introduce the purpose of this event in English and Chinese to the VYPC Club and the guests. The next two hours, a total of 18 VYPC young pianist who participated in the master concert. The children were dressed up to perform. After each performance, Louis would be smiling when the sheet of music came to life. He gave wonderful remarks that all children of different ages could understand. Everyone’s techniques were different but Louis was very patient in the instruction giving part. Everyone was impressed. Louis let the children sing the music out loud and playing while trying say the beats to the piece. This is a very important tip, not only for the children who play piano, but also for parents who watch over their children. The piano is a very melodic instrument. It’s it a tool with a soul and feelings. You need the skills and the soul to be able to play this instrument well.
