A lot of teaching experience proves that when you can master the knowledge of music theory to play music, you will find that many originally difficult problems will be solved immediately. Because piano students already have direct experience of keyboard, learning music theory is more convenient and faster than other students. Many children who have studied music theory report that after learning music theory, they feel that the music taught by the teacher is much simpler, because the children have begun to analyze and summarize the laws of music instead of repeating the practice at a loss. This is why some children of the same age can reach the level of band 6 after three years of study, while some children only stay in the primary stage; Why do some children become more and more interested in practice, while others are often timid, finally unable to understand and insist, and have to choose to give up?
In the process of learning music theory, you will gradually master the knowledge of acoustics, formalism, music appreciation, touching skills and so on. This is like learning a text, which means that primary school students should not only know the words in the text (know the pitch), but also know how many paragraphs the article is divided into (divided music), what are the sentences (divided music), what are the good words and sentences (key rhythm and melody) and who wrote the article. Even a simple ditty can be analyzed in this way. Over time, children's music knowledge will become increasingly profound, and their ability to appreciate and express music will also be enhanced, forming a real interest in music. This is applicable to the study of various musical instruments majors, and even if the child does not take the professional road in the future, this wealth will benefit him for life and add fun to his life.
Finally, in reality, learning music theory can save a lot of money for parents to learn piano unconsciously. Because music theory must be applied in piano practice, it is inevitable, such as the stability of rhythm, the improvement of reading speed, the tonality analysis of music, the meaning of music terms, the characteristics of musicians who are taught at a high level, the styles of works in different periods and so on. Even the most basic scale playing is inseparable from music theory. If children lack systematic training in this field, piano teachers will take up part of the class time to teach, and sometimes they may not have fully mastered a class, which is undoubtedly uneconomical from the economic point of view. Moreover, children still have a little knowledge, and they still don't know how to use other songs. In this way, they will repeat the same questions over and over again, wasting a lot of time and energy.
