3. p>How many grades in the Chinese Piano Exam***? About the piano examination level knowledge introduction
The National Association of the piano examination level, for example, each level should be examined four skills (four are mandatory items, so there is no practice of a piece of music can not be examined, in addition to the repertoire is specifically designated, can only be selected from among them, can not be evaded):
1, the basic skills: the requirement to test your scales, arpeggios ability to play as the The level of the ascending, lifting marks gradually increase (10 level test 6 ascending or 6 descending), scales and arpeggios speed is gradually accelerated (10 level scales required to play 144 quarter notes per minute, that is, 516 sixteenth notes, the equivalent of 8.6 tones per second), scales and arpeggios length and difficulty sister will gradually increase in both hands to an octave to the last two-handed inversion of the four octaves.
2. Etudes: This is one of the most important tests of your performance level. If you are learning the piano in a systematic way, you can test yourself with the level of the Etudes that you have learned so far, and which level you are qualified for.
3, polyphonic music: the piano examination especially emphasizes the ability to play polyphonic polyphonic music, polyphonic music is basically based on Bach's works, from Bach's Little Prelude and Fugue, to his two-part, three-part creative works to the most difficult "twelve equal-tempered piano pieces" (basically, each of which is in three or four parts).
The foundations of polyphony must be well laid, and this one is mainly a test of your hands control.
4, music (mainly small pieces), because of the time factor of the examination (each person up to 15 minutes), so the examination of the music is mainly small pieces (Chinese and foreign roughly the same proportion), the style is also very diverse, this is mainly to test your musical expression.
