GUQIN JIANZIPU - COMPONENT READING RECORD Original worksheet. Identify the source before trying to play. SOURCE EXAMPLE 6B John Thompson: annotated Shen Qi Mi Pu sample, item 6B. https://www.silkqin.com/07play/sqpage.htm Left finger: thumb (da zhi / 大指). Position: ninth hui (jiu hui / 九徽). Right-hand action: gou / 勾, middle-finger inward pluck. String: fourth (si xian / 四弦). These are expanded terms, not a typeset historical cluster. SOURCE EXAMPLE 6A Same sample, item 6A: san / 散, open string; tiao / 挑, right index finger outward; seventh string. The grass-like component 艹 stands for 散; 乚 stands for 挑 in the source's explanation. Do not read them as unrelated words. COMPARE WITH PEIYOU CHANG'S INTRODUCTORY EXAMPLE https://www.peiyouqin.com/notation1.html Left thumb / seventh hui / tiao / fifth string. Different hui, right-hand action and string from 6B. YOUR SOURCE - leave any field blank when uncertain Handbook, edition, page or teacher's lesson: Exact cluster location (column / line / item): Sound type or preceding instruction: Left finger: Hui or position: Right-hand action: String: Adjacent instruction affecting the reading: What the source explains: What I still need to ask my teacher: A string number is not a numbered-notation scale degree. Do not infer absolute pitch without tuning and sound-production context. Do not infer a fixed duration, tempo or full ornament from one cluster. Recognizing a written instruction is different from executing it.
