How to adjust the breath when blowing cucurbit silk,

1, keep the stability and continuity of breath (sound) when playing.

When playing, the breath should be steady and lasting. Unless there is a demand for music, there should be no distinction between strength and weakness, and there is no control at all. You can play a high-quality long note first, plus finger movements and tongue movements, but the breath is still the feeling when playing a long note. Don't let the addition of fingers and tongue affect the stability of breath.

2. Exhale while playing can be practiced by playing long notes, or exhale against the back of the hand. Through practice, learners will feel the speed, pressure and stability of breathing, thus enhancing their ability to consciously control breathing. Explain two points: length, strength and other specific conditions, and flexibly grasp the inhalation volume.

Extended data

Playing skills of cucurbit silk;

1. The ring finger, middle finger and index finger of the right hand open and close the first, second and third sound holes with the first finger pulp respectively, and the thumb is dragged under the main pipe. The ring finger, middle finger and index finger of the left hand are opened and closed with the belly of the first finger, and the thumb is opened with the fourth, fifth and sixth sound holes, which are located at the front and lower part of the main pipe.

2. Take a deep breath and inhale as much gas as possible. After inhaling, the breath sinks, so that the airflow can be exhaled evenly and evenly in a controlled way, and the breath should be stable, not strong and weak.

3. In the performance, the high notes should be played by slow blowing (airflow weakening) and the low notes by fast blowing (airflow enhancing).

4. Don't fix the little fingers attached to the left and right sides of the sound tube, and master them flexibly according to the situation when playing.
