  However, when you actually play the piano in such a way, you can learn to play chords with proper finger spacing, but between each finger, which is indispensable for melodic performance, Smooth control training was not possible.

  Therefore, the auxiliary instrument for practicing keyboard instruments of the present invention has been conceived in order to solve the problems of such conventional instruments.

  When playing a musical instrument having a keyboard such as a piano, in the auxiliary instrument 1 for practicing the keyboard instrument that is used along the fingertip of the player's hand, at least a portion corresponding to the keyboard of the keyboard keying portion 3 is substantially hemispherical. Auxiliary instrument 1 for practicing keyboard instruments.

  According to the device of this invention, even if a beginner uses it, training of smooth control of fingering between each finger indispensable for melodic performance can be performed reliably and simply.

  As shown in FIG. 1, in an instrument for practicing a keyboard instrument including a keyboard keying unit 3 and a holding unit 2 that holds the keyboard keying unit 3, a finger of a hand to be played is lightly placed on the instrument. And the keyboard of a piano is pressed using this instrument. The keyboard keying unit 3 is composed of two or more bars, which are approximately the same length. The side that strikes the keyboard is almost hemispherical. The keyboard keying unit 3 composed of two or more bars is arranged at intervals such that a heavy sound or chord can be played. The holding part 2 and the keying part 3 are usually joined with an adhesive.

  The auxiliary instrument for practicing the keyboard instrument of the present invention is made of wood, the holding part is a round bar having a length of 15 mm, a width of 85 mm, a thickness of 10 mm, and a keying part having a diameter of 10 mm and a length of 42 mm. As shown in FIG. 1, the side that strikes the keyboard is almost hemispherical (radius 10 mm), so hemispherical cork, styrofoam, rubber, or the like is affixed to the wooden round bar with an adhesive. Or you may make a hole in the center of the hemisphere and insert a round bar. The round bar may be cut into a substantially hemispherical shape, and the object of the present invention can be achieved if the side where the keyboard is struck is substantially hemispherical. The dimensions of the instrument and the number of keystroke portions are determined according to the size and purpose of a person's hand who wants to learn the piano.

  In the auxiliary instrument for practicing the keyboard instrument in FIG. 2, the key hitting portion 3 has a substantially spherical shape. Put your finger along the opposite side of the part that touches the keyboard. Since the keystroke portion 3 is easy to move, in order to prevent this, a ring (inner diameter 13 mm) shown in FIG. 3 or an auxiliary plate 5 (thickness 4 mm) shown in FIG. 4 is used. The auxiliary plate 5 has a number of holes so that a large number of keystroke portions 3 can be inserted. The positions of the holes are determined in accordance with the lengths of the fingers from the thumb to the little finger when keying. The auxiliary plate 5 may be made of any material such as cardboard, wood, metal, or plastic.

  As shown in FIG. 5, the thickness of the auxiliary plate 5 may be increased to 35 mm. In that case, a keystroke unit 3 as shown in FIG. 5 is used.

  As shown in FIG. 6, the plate-like key hitting section 3 may have a curved surface on the surface that comes into contact with the keyboard in a direction substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the keyboard. By holding the side part of the keystroke part 3 by hand, it can be used without the holding part. This instrument is particularly useful for mastering the piano glissando.

  When you play the piano with this instrument, the part that touches the keyboard and the part that touches the finger are almost spherical. It is easy to learn. As a result, you can acquire the freedom of joints such as fingers, wrists, elbows and shoulders necessary for keystrokes, learn smooth fingering control between fingers, which is indispensable for melodic performance, and agile reflection of fingertips Can promote exercise.

  By doing so, it becomes possible to obtain control of performance movements that work from the upper body to the fingertips, such as articulation such as legato and staccato that are essential for performance, natural volume increase and decrease, and maintaining an appropriate tempo.

  Using this instrument, even beginners can train fingering smooth control between fingers, which is indispensable for melodic performance. Therefore, it is important to increase the willingness to learn keyboard instruments and contribute to future music education.
