How to use Rent & Vivace

 
 

We give top priority to having people feel "fun" and "impressive" by playing an instrument. We will introduce simple techniques for using and improving so that even beginners can enjoy playing.

1. You can play 70% with "reading music"!

How much you can read the score is an important issue for you to be able to play (play), and it is no exaggeration to say that if you can do this perfectly, you will be able to play 70%. I will describe how to read the staff here.

① Read the total score of piano accompaniment and solo while listening to the demo performance
Start by getting a complete picture of the song. Read the piano accompaniment score and solo score while listening to the demonstration performance of each song published on the homepage. (Please note that if the instrument is different, the range or phrase may be changed.) Check when you start playing your part and if there is any change in tempo. A guide melody is added to the accompaniment piano for the part where the tempo is easily lost, so please listen to the accompaniment while being aware of that melody. First of all, let\'s be able to sing the tune.

② Read the score for solo while listening to the accompaniment sound source.

If you can sing along with the song, then read the solo score while listening to the accompaniment sound source. You don\'t have to hold the instrument while listening to the accompaniment sound source with the fingering (fingering) of your own instrument, the ups and downs of the bow for stringed instruments, and the breath for wind instruments, so try simulating it in your head. It can be said that whether or not you can play depends on whether the notes and fingering are linked.


You can do this work on the train while commuting, in a cafe, or while listening with earphones, so please try using your spare time. At Rent & Vivace, we do not dare to notate the bowing of stringed instruments or the breath of wind instruments. Add to your solo score to be Boeing and Breathing at your own "easy to play" and "easy to blow" timings. It may be slurred, but it doesn\'t have to be true to the score. Please give priority to making it easy to play and enjoyable. If you can do so far, you can see the goal. Until then, repeat steps ① and ② many times.
 

2. Play along with the song

Be sure to tune with A = 442.

Let\'s play the instrument while listening to the accompaniment sound source.
It may not work because the simulation is different from the actual playing, but let\'s understand which part cannot be played. Is it the tempo, the pitch of an accidental, or the timing?   Play the unplayable part at a slow tempo over and over again. Gradually increase the tempo, and if you can connect it to the front and back parts and play it, try playing along with the song.
If you can\'t play it even if you slow down the tempo, you can either not play it if it\'s a decorative note, or you can thin out 4 notes to 2 notes and play it. Don\'t hesitate to use open strings for stringed instruments.   Again, give priority to "enjoying" the performance without becoming stoic.

3. If you play the whole thing, go ahead

 

If you feel the charm of a song, it is important to think about how you want to express it and convey it through the performance. You have to study and learn how to play "strong", "soft", "light", etc. to make it sound like that. You can take lessons in earnest or practice the basics using the instructional book.

It\'s not fun to play with just basic practice, and if you don\'t have the basics, the expression will be narrowed, so you may have to go back and forth between both. It may take patience to level up, but we think it\'s the most wasteful thing to get rid of the fun and not play the instrument. Let\'s have a space (rent) and liveliness (Vivace) in our lives through musical instruments.
