我的吉他日记----4月16日开始-五一期间琴室开张。

12356

今天忙得连灌水的劲都没有.上午8:30起床.吃了点东西.在家里给二个初学吉他的高中生上课.一下给他们灌了心的祈祷,你快回来,你知道我在等你吗的弹唱和每日音阶练习四个内容.中午前来一个学生电话,说要下午1:00来学.困了躺一会儿.下楼吃饭回来.等等没人来,就把阿拉伯风格给视奏下来.弹了2个多小时.总算有印象了,再看几次顺着弹下来了.-----四大三阿就剩下个大霍塔需要忍着头疼看谱弹了.....
晚上6:00开始,来了四个学生,着重对二个年龄偏小一点的讲得多一点.另外二个一个点几句叫他复习[不算上课],一个看着他弹完卡伐帝那第一段,8:10分了.解散.带那位学弹卡伐狄那的去年在温州赛得三等奖的15岁的学生到酒吧里去.
前几天提及的那位26岁的小伙子昨晚开始不来了,和有一位曾在歌厅弹琴的同龄吉他朋友约好今晚一起在酒吧玩的今晚也没来[说好他可以随时来,我固定柱场.],好,今晚就一个人玩吧.过去也就一个人在酒吧连着弹它三个月....头二场叫我的那位15岁的学生上来分别合奏了月光,月亮代表我的心.和恭喜恭喜[带前间奏],庭院深深.还居然吸引了客人来大厅坐下喝酒饮茶了....
我也一首连着一首放开来弹.还翻开谱子把爱的记念,春江花月夜,长长的梁祝等视奏着灌下来.
在酒吧里视奏学曲子是个办法.把味给熏点出来就可......呵哈~~
明天上午,范大桥的吉他教室挂牌,约了也在附近办美术教室的10几年的朋友过来看一下.室内怎么搞得有气氛点.下午要到塘下上课,下午3:00----7:30.7,8个吉他学员.
估计琴室开张后要成一个小气候,要叫贝司兵他们经常光顾了.

昨晚,我把另一把古典味浓一点的古典吉他带回家了.我买的.标价2400元.和雅马哈9A一同买过来的.酒吧里还剩下一把原声钢玄韩产电箱,一架YAMAHA电钢琴[都是我的琴].再就是YAMAHA9A古典电箱琴了[吴总出钱买,现在我和他各占一半份子,过一个月都是我的了].有空把我带回家的古典电箱亮亮相.手感还很舒服滴~~~

心的祈祷,你快回来,你知道我在等你吗

刚刚收到浙江省吉他专业委员会发的会员证,挂了个常务理事的头斜,谢谢!挂牌的搞广告的朋友已到了范大桥,按计划进行.愉快!~~

主题是:6712433,3663322,2432211,176#566,23137363,2313736.就这曲.民乐用二胡拉.西烊乐用小提拉旋律,吉他伴奏.我呢就用吉他弹旋律.结合吉他特点尽量模仿玄乐色彩.另一把吉他伴奏.

鸡蛋不是鸭蛋

原来是这首：
每条大街小巷 ，每个人的嘴里见面第一句话 ，就是恭喜恭喜！
是不是弄了些好琴爽着呢

今晚去得早,回来也早.跟黄先生谈好了,他明天过来与我合奏.今天随便搭了首月亮我的心.他有事先走了.
今天上午琴室挂牌,有好事者问及什么工商执照什么的,我指着青年中心的标志,说,这就是执照!
随即打个电话给团市委书记,说琴室要挂青年中心的牌,他说好啊~~哈哈,这就对号入座了.省得麻烦.......广告牌挂满了大院的墙壁.显得不是很小气.琴室门口的灯箱上写的是:
浙江省吉他专业委员会联络处;
温州市吉他专业委员会瑞安分会;
瑞安市机关青年中心吉他教室.
外边的事妥了,接下来要搞里边的了.

12356给忙得团团转，唉！

今天白天我干粗活,到油漆店购物,顺便叫骑三轮车的给我当零时工.到吉他琴室那边去一直搞到晚上7:10分,把住隔壁的老妈也牵累了.我的手心因刮油灰刮掉了二层皮.硬是把琴室及休息室打点得亮了许多.走到琴室二楼,往窗外一看,二中的教室楼正好面对面.看来还得在二楼窗户边另做一个灯箱广告,内容是:
温州瑞安实力吉他专业教室.
专业演奏家和职业乐手的摇篮.
吉他爱好者琴友会.
再一个打算,琴室搞二只空调,楼上楼下各一只,休息室一只.休息室再购二只上网用的电脑.
--------要搞就要搞得像样点.休息室前有个50多平米的天井.够宽畅.

今晚和我同龄的黄先生与我同台弹琴了.一开始,我弹了十几只曲子他还没过来,倒是20多位客人在大厅里坐下了.他来了,带了个电子较音器,调好了我的那把韩产原声电箱又说不顺手,回去又拿了一把3000元的原声电箱来,我又一直弹到他来.-----大伙都说我弹起琴来放不下.
二人重奏开始,没搭过.奏出来却很默契.第一场:花,爱情之爱情,外面的世界[带唱].我再加一支魔笛.第二场,奇异的关联,月亮代表我的心,寒风[带唱],我再来一支雨滴松口气.第三场:感谢你,月亮河,我只在呼你,情人的关怀.后来了范继忠,他们二人又唱了二支曲.受到了欢迎.
在瑞安的16年,我就只在1993-1994年春与黄先生在点歌厅合作过,那时我弹贝司,他弹电琴.想不到多年未合,还是很默契.我在他唱歌的时候,把贝司,主音吉他[即兴加花],和手鼓全都用上了.
黄先生是个认真的人,一方面把音响挑得合适的响.另一方面对演出也很讲究质量.约好明天下午到我家搭几曲.
酒吧的戏完了之后,吴总[乡村吉他歌手]又邀我到他办公室里玩玩琴.刚开始不久,门口服务员来叫:有哪位是于老师吗?烧烤广场的有一位自称是于老师的学生叫小宇的找他.我去了,原来真是小宇---一班于1998年要搞乐队的四人组阿勇,牛英,小雨等四人[都是歌手]一起来同学吉他,贝司鼓的小宇,流一头短的长发,打扮的挺酷挺青年.正与5,6个少男少女在香江烧烤广场喝酒.我一坐下来他就叫服务员到吴总办公室拿来吉他弹唱五百的歌....
边喝酒边聊,说起外滩步行街的歌手擂台赛原来是外滩公司老板出资,电视台主办.我的另一位老学生阿勇和我的朋友韩建搞音响合作搞的.目前形成了气候.方式是:
参赛歌手交20员报名费,每星期五晚上预赛,星期六下午打擂台,过一至14关选手每场奖200元,连过15关者获奖50000元人民币,刚刚有一个连过五关的流行歌手被一位唱美声的挑下擂台.而那位连过五关的前五关共获奖励1000元.同时那位挑擂成功的也仅记过了一关.获200元奖励.....这种形式获得了社会热烈的反响,我有一个读高二的学生也跃跃欲试.评分是这样的,台下观众现场亮分占10分,电视播出后,观众手机评分占40分,电视台评分占50分.
我的朋友韩建和阿勇他们听说现在是免费给这个活动搞音响.通过他们的努力.外滩步行街的烧烤广场他们获得了优先承租权.听说他们就借用这个擂台赛的舞台打开市面.----记得1999年,我在瑞安剧院任经理的时候跟韩兄他们合议过舞台卡拉OK之事.之后他们搞了了电视演播厅.而今这种室外的歌手擂台赛的成功推出令他们的愿望实现了.真为他们高兴.据说,他们要请一班乐队压台,目前正和小范他们协商中.又据称,想要通过15关获50000元大奖的必须得准备30首拿手歌曲[每场唱2首],仅凭一首歌唱出名的恐怕不行.

啊~困啊.12:30又要到琴行里去上课.心里有点懒得去,但为了信用还是要去.上午和老婆去了琴室再上街买一些和吉他有关的东西.真是连累了家人.88~~

12356

琴室基本搞定.昨日又在琴室二楼装了灯箱广告.正好面对二中教学楼.里里外外搞得清爽了点.另装了7,8只日光灯.琴室里放了几把吉他.谱架.脚凳和桌椅.今天老婆过来看了看,觉得应该拉屏风的地方量了尺寸.明天挂好.今天上午,我又叫上次温州赛得三等奖的在琴室旁边二中就读初二的15岁的少年学生过来看看.并有意识地在琴室里上了我的第一堂课----继昨晚在家里给他上的课,把卡伐狄那全曲给教会了.并交给他琴室的钥匙,让他课余中午休息的时候来琴室里练练琴休息一下.托他办的事就是请他父亲[瑞安最大的电器公司新族电器的老总]帮忙给琴室和休息室等4个房间装上二对一拖二的空调.---前天打电话跟他爸联系过了,没什么问题.虹桥路小学也在琴室附近不到200米,那儿我也有一个11岁读小学四年级的学生,以后也给他琴室的钥匙,让他有空也来练练琴.顺便带同学们来看看.酒吧吉他演绎似乎受到了亲睐,坐大厅坐包厢的人越来越多.昨晚,我和我在酒吧同玩吉他的伙计黄先生在弹琴之余聊天,说,吉他在酒吧生命力将会很强.特别是迷人的双吉他.带唱的就又景上添花.目前钢琴在酒吧反而有所冷落了.昨晚,黄先生还未到场的时候.坐大厅6位花季少女一直看着我弹琴,看得我有点脸红.弹了几曲赶紧下台到外边散步去了.到了门外.发觉有几个还在透过玻璃窗看我走过.似乎还在说了些什么...

12356

现在地方教会里学吉他的人蛮多.今天到塘下琴行里上课.来了5,6位当地基督教会里的年龄均在30岁以上要学吉他的.对于我来说,每个月又多了6个小时的工.

ddx68

呵，创业真不简单呢。

12356

今晚给一个10岁的学生上完课到酒吧,已经是8:30了,今晚我一个人玩吉他.女主管贴耳告诉我,啊呀,今天大厅好多人哩,对面的一桌是专门来听吉他的,刚才一直在问:怎么还未开始.
好,开始吧.认真对付一下.一连5,6支慢曲.引来了一位英国血统的外国青年人及其女中国翻译.就在台前坐下.又补弹了4,5支古典小曲...
第二场玩完之后,那位青年女翻译问我,那把YAMAHA9A从哪儿买,多少钱.我一一告知.她说,我弹得真好.[说得我心里好爽].她又说,那位是本地省18所之一的重点中学的外聘英文老师,--[是我的母校,我有2个MM学生在那就读,一位参加去年的温州赛获前六名.一位因故没参加].他弹琴也有10年琴龄了.接着他也翘母指对我说,"WANDERFUL !"我用结巴的英语问他要不要上台玩玩.他说准备先回去.并说要跟我学琴,以后要经常来这儿.
我问他,要不我去你那儿?他说,不,他去我那儿.接着我说我在范大桥办了一个吉他教室.而他的女翻译马上说,他要上个别课.那自然.我说,我英文不行.他说,这不是问题.
恐怕在琴室搞定开放之时,他是第一个新学员.而且是个外国人,他说他喜欢古典吉他....
好令我兴奋~~~~~~.

看来信心和热情是老于成功的关键！

12356

今天在琴室里挂了屏风,琴室的窗户全部挂上了窗廉.休息室还没搞.光窗帘屏风也要600元钱.每年琴室我的预算内总的开支不超出2.6万.因为以后我只有清晨,中午,下午下班后有空来琴室.星期六天要么在家里上课要么跑到外边上课.即使在暑假,我也不愿放弃晚上9:00或9:30过后在酒吧演绎传播吉他语言的门路.
二中的那位学生自拿到钥匙后每天中午和下午下课后带同学来弹吉他.今天下午5:00我刚好在,他放学回来对我说,有好多同学要学.我说,你先带带他们再说.----说起来有意思,他在去年温州赛得的是古典组奖,而在学校里的三独比赛得的却是弹唱--六月的雨[独唱的奖].他带同学来琴室,专门很开心地玩弹唱的花样.
我母校的外籍英文老师及其女翻译来电话,明天到温州文海琴行买yamaha9a,下星期到琴室里学琴.中午我在玉海琴行里上课的时候给文海李总通个电话,请他给予照顾.--我有一个原则:我只管本份地教琴.

今天我体会到得道多助的喜悦.
主要有四件事:
一是通过我与李总的联系,母校的外籍英文老师及其女翻译到温州文海琴行买下了yamaha9a,那位女翻译对我连声说声谢谢.并说学琴从本周开始,老外朋友准备在五一期间好好练练.
二是今天上午市里开文化广电新闻出版工作会议,会议之余酒会,我这个本地的老文化把我的琴室的广告传单分了出去,并把外籍英文教师学吉他的事情给说了说,引起了广泛的注意.一类是通过我其子女学英文可以找到本地最地道的英文老师.一个是好几个乡镇的文化站[面积均在1000米以上的]给我发出了暑期开吉他班培训的邀请.有的他们自己也想学学.
三是住琴室旁的我二胞兄今天为琴室报了宽带和购置了二台电脑.分别在范大桥琴室和休息室各装一台.
四是装空调的事也定了.我学生的老爸对之挺热心,他现在正忙于在繁华大街上开一个600平米的新族电器城,项目多了.等月底搞定了五一开放之后就会照料琴室的事.
我也有一个态度,凡常年学琴的每人分一枚琴室的钥匙.让他们有空方便的时候都可来练练.另外来琴室上课的吉他老师学费是他们的应得.我最多收取每课每学员十元或2:8及3:7比例的投资回收费和报名组织工作开支费.[一般琴行里则是5:5或4:6分.但我到琴行里上课按的是上面的比例.我说过我只管本份地教琴,琴行也管他本份地做生意]
另外,剩下的还有一个重要的工作就是请团市委的领导和朋友们有空来坐坐.顺便通过他们把各学校团委及少先队部等关于在各中小学开办吉他兴趣小组课等事给联系一下,谁叫琴室还挂了团的工作--青年中心理事单位的牌.去年我在下派工作中干了点团的工作,有一点小名气.他们都信得过我.

喜悦之余,又体会到要干好一件事情好辛苦.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
从今年的1-4月,我的总开销用去了3万,加上琴室的增补全年租金,电脑.空调等,还需花费1.8万.到五月底合计要花5万元.平均每个月要一万元.有些事情需要自己默默的去承当.就拿酒吧里的YAMAHA9A,还需一个月才能据为己有.到下月底回原单位上班后.因明确了第二职业.还得在上班时刻注意影响.每天8小时的坐工还得身不由己的呆下去.下班后一些事务的安排又是可想而知.
上班,教学,上酒吧弹琴.三样不同的工.虽说都很轻松.可还是觉得身不由己.
朋友们有空来我这儿玩玩,开心开心.我怕寂寞.

12356

现场报道：
我的专业吉他琴室已装上二台电脑[连同我二胞兄家的一台合计三台]。声卡摄像头等都配齐了。琴室二楼一台。休息室一台。
我现在休息室上网。
琴室在五一期间装空调之前，先放几台电风扇和饮水机用用。
五一期间琴室可以开放使用了。预计五一来琴室活动的人员有7，80人。

12356兄过得充实啊，可以做自已喜欢的事

12356

湖南籍的超超帅弟中午到玉海琴行学琴,我把他带到琴室,上完第八堂课.学会了小行板和旅愁的伴奏和一些儿歌旋律.他跟我打开了话甲子,说他自己五月七日到温州参加歌手比赛.上三个月到温州群艺馆学唱歌,连路费超过每月一千.赛后还跟5个同学一道参加演出,拿报酬.他想走酒吧歌手之路.学好吉他还要学键盘.
晚上和黄先生合作之余商议,过了五月,我把YAMAHA9A据为己有之后,定二个场子每个场子每周三天,留一天休息或搭配一下.今晚玩完之后,又带他到琴室及休息室看看,他觉得很好.广告也很大气.我介绍了我的有关做法,他很赞赏.不过他也是个忙人,和他爱人承包了一个大厂每天300人吃饭的食堂.一年10万的进账.弹吉他是他不能放弃的爱好.

我今天第一次把阿拉伯风格拿到酒吧来弹.刚学的,还要看谱弹.一次不够,弹它两次,到吴总办公室又看谱弹他一次.我现在看谱视奏的"功夫"越来越好了.我发觉即使会弹也要在一段时间对着谱弹有好处.

呵，12356厉害，是个男人，向你学习，争取把吉他弹好，到时到你那儿去会会你的那些学生。

我希望他们青出于蓝而胜于蓝,所以专门搞个琴室让他们充分利用时间来练功.并且装了电脑让他们开开眼界.那位在二中就读去年获温州赛奖的15岁的学生豪言壮语:要弹琴就要做第一.令我很有感触,我15年前何尝不是这么想的.他每天上课前来琴室弹琴,中午也来弹一个半小时.下午5:30下课过来都要带一班同学过来弹唱,还当起唱歌的老师,说是教他的同学们唱六月的雨.而他得的是古典奖.现在还会扒带了.有点现代的感觉.就是记谱的工夫还不行.
暑期里我的一些老学生大约有40来位来琴室里继续学琴.我怕我忙不过来.

终于搞大了啊
不知道那老外找你是学古典还是学弹唱了

古典,他喜欢古典.说不定现代的我还要跟他学几招.毕竟他是纯正的西方人.也弹了10年吉他.

12356

我开始学做吉他音乐圣殿温州琴友会的版主,请朋友们给出一些建议.
我个人想做的事情初步思路如下:
一.宗旨:为温州琴友会服务.为温州音乐家协会吉他专业委员会服务.
二.工作内容:
1,与温州吉他协会联系.建立网上[虚拟]入会机制.凡温州琴友会会员自愿加入温州吉他专业委员会的在网上写申请,上传照片及学琴简历.组织会员参加并传播温州吉他专业委员会组织的实体活动.
2,开展网上教学交流活动.倾向于专门在温州琴友会版块设立音视频教学内部交流.
3.建立温州籍吉他师资网络,发布网上招生或教学事宜的通知及其他问答事项.
4,联系国内专家学者来温授课教学.
5,通报温州吉他活动信息.
6,开展针对有利于温州吉他发展的讨论.鼓励多出和其他与吉他有关,与琴友有关的或与与温州吉他有关的好帖子.
7.设立温州瑞安实力吉他专业教室教学专栏.并协助温州各地吉他专业教室在网上开展相应的活动.
8,建立温州琴友会理事会.分担负责相关工作.
9,欢迎各地琴友参与温州琴友会版块的交流指导.
请朋友们给出一些建议.

给楼主建议，有教古典吉他的英文网站，有免费教程，可用那个教那个鬼，顺便自己提高英语例如第一课是Book 1 -- Lesson 1 -- BasicsThe goal of lesson 1 is to identify and explain general areas that need to be addressed if you are to be successful at learning to play classical guitar. These areas include mental attitude and physical control. The necessary mental attitude requires you to open yourself to new ideas, let go of old habits, and free yourself to expand musically. Proper physical control requires removing all tension from your body while playing, learning to use only the motion of your body absolutely required to make music, and making the instrument an extension of yourself. Mental Attitude Playing Classical Guitar is as much a mental effort as it is a physical effort, perhaps even more so. Let's take a couple of steps to prepare our minds for this challenge. Making room for new ideas An old story relates an incident where a young man claiming to want to learn something new about the art of Zen visited a famous Zen master. It was obvious to the master at the outset that this young man had already thought he had reached an understanding well beyond his years, but that he was coming to the master simply to be able to say to others that he had indeed studied with the great teacher. The master invited the young man to share a cup of tea with him and he proceeded to fill the young man's cup. When the tea reached the top of the cup, the master continued to pour more tea from the pot. After a short while, the tea began to run over the cup and onto the floor, and, finally, the young man could not contain his anxiety and shouted "stop, the cup will hold no more." "So it is with any idea," said the master, "you must first empty your cup before it can again be filled." This same concept is very true for the classical guitar. If you insist on holding on to your old ideas about playing the guitar, save yourself some time and trouble and stop here. You won't be able to learn classical guitar until you are willing to let go of what you think you already know. Forgetting old habits and pre-conceptions The degree of success you will have in playing classical guitar is directly proportional to your ability to do what is required, but ONLY what is required in order to accomplish your musical goal. My experience has shown that the most difficult students of classical guitar are those who have already reached a significant level of competence in some other musical style on the guitar. I played the electric guitar for ten years before I started studying classical guitar. I had developed such bad habits that it took two years just to undo past mistakes. You will learn not only how to play properly, but you'll learn why this way is the proper way. The fundamental approaches and methods in these lessons have been proven by all of the most successful classical guitarists of our time. They were taught to me by teachers from some of the world's most respected institutions, including the Andres Segovia school of music in Spain, the University of Southern California, the University of Texas in Austin, SMU in Dallas, and the University of North Carolina. When you learn to play classical guitar using this method, you'll have the best information available anywhere. What you do with that knowledge will then be up to you. Opening the door to any possibilities Classical music places a huge demand on a performer's ability to focus her mind on the task at hand. Solo classical music challenges our ability to maintain conscious control over several simultaneous musical events. You can get some sense of the magnitude of the task by trying to simply listen and to understand two separate conversations at the same time. The key word in the last sentence is "understand." Many people learn to play very difficult pieces, but they accomplish that feat by simply learning to move their fingers with great agility in complex patterns. These players are not great musicians. They may be great guitar players but it's not the purpose of these lessons to just create great players. Truly great musicians have developed the ability to view an entire piece of music as a whole, yet be able to focus clearly on the details of each musical line as it contributes to the overall musical idea. One of the goals of this approach to studying classical guitar is to allow the student to experience the full musical impact of each piece of music studied. As you progress from simple to more complex music, you'll find that your understanding and appreciation of classical music also progresses. Pieces suitable for classical guitar students at each increasingly demanding level are chosen to expand their mental as well as their physical capacity. You'll find that your musical and emotional pallettes are inextricably linked. The goal of these lessons is always to teach you to make music, and that goal can be achieved at any level of ability. Some people call this concept "musical sincerity." If the mind's not there, the message will also be missing. Physical Control Relaxation One of the most important abilities we need to master in order to play the classic guitar is the ability to keep our entire bodies relaxed while playing. A student at a master class at SMU in Dallas once asked the instructor "How do you know if you're relaxed enough?" the instructor responded "If you fall off the chair you know you were too relaxed". That got the appropriate chuckle from the audience, but the response was dead on. Playing the classical guitar is not "hard." As a matter of fact, the easier YOU MAKE IT, the quicker you will progress. It is all too often the case that most of the time spent in beginning lessons is just having the student get rid of tension. Tension is the enemy! Not only will it keep you from progressing, but its presence is brutal to any audience. If you listen to a classical guitarist and you find yourself squirming in your chair, you can bet you're feeling the tension he's creating. We'll talk later about how to recognize tension and how to control it with relaxation - suffice to say that you'd be really surprised at how this ugly demon finds it's way into our playing. Once you've learned to identify tension, you will also be surprised at how easy it is to eliminate. Minimum effort, minimum motion We've all been raised in an era of electronic music where the electric guitar is king and body contortions, twisted facial expressions, and all sorts of extraneous physical motions are almost required if one is to be considered a great player. Forget it! Classical guitar is a aural art form. There is no motion of any part of the body except those parts which are directly involved in creating the music. There will be many references to this important principal in future lessons, but, for the time being think about your own personal experiences with this concept. The physical effort applied to anything should always be consistant with the task at hand. You are the extension of your instrument What does it mean to "make the instrument an extension of your body?" The answer to this question involves understanding 1) the motion of your body, 2) the response of your instrument to that motion, and 3) the timing required to synchronize your motions and the instrument's response. The required choreography of the fingers and hands rivals the most intricate ballet production. These three elements will become an important part of your "technique". Don't underestimate the importance of these concepts - they are the essence of the physical requirements of playing classical guitar. Review of Lesson 1 You should now understand the importance of mastering both the mental and physical aspects of playing Classical guitar. These basic ideas will apply to every lesson that follows and they will be expanded upon and brought up many times as you progress in your efforts to learn to make music. Don't expect that you fully understand or appreciate the importance of these concepts. They are ideas and revelations that take on more and more meaning as your own personal experience grows on the instrument. Lesson 2 breaks from the theoretical to the practical and talks about the instrument and the other items you will need before we actually get into playing. Good luck, I hope we can continue to work together until you reach your musical goals!

谢谢!

老外朋友今晚和其女翻译再次来到兰桂坊酒吧.约好五月三日上午到吉他琴室里上古典吉他课.据介绍,他是英国伦敦人,弹吉他弹了也有十年了.会弹一些民族的乐曲.主要想学学古典吉他,当我弹了一首阿斯图利亚斯,他说,IT IS  FENMOUS ! 并说他也想学这曲.

也许也由于他们的到来,大厅今天坐满了人,连我放吉他袋的台前那桌也坐了一对情侣.吉他袋自然被抛在了台上.

今天我一个人弹琴,上了三场弹了50分钟的曲,除了加州旅馆是现代的以外,其他都是古典曲目.

当CD机里奏着英文歌曲的乐曲时,老外朋友说,这些虽然我很喜欢.但更喜欢听我弹吉他.--听着挺鼓舞人滴~
