The eyes of the young man and woman briefly met again.

The facial features of the girl who was obviously wearing makeup softened a little, removing some of the sense of alienation.

The speakers next to the big screen continued to sound the host's voice.

"She will bring the following tracks"

"Chopin's Etudes—"

“op25.no2”

no2！？

The moment Qin Jian's eyes flickered, the girl had already turned around and walked quickly towards the passage to the stage.

A clean white dress looked particularly fresh and holy in the dim light of the passageway.

It's just that Qin Jian's gaze unnaturally fell on the little finger of the other party's right hand that was attached to his thigh

This was the first time Qin Jian noticed.

It was a small thumb with a particularly prominent joint, somewhat severely bent.

"Instructor, Shen Qingci. ”

......

On the big screen, the enthusiasm of the audience is still rising with the appearance of the girl.

Pure audiences probably only know Chopin, but they don't know that the three words 'Shen Qingci' still represent the closest person to Chopin in China, but they only need to hear the word Chopin to associate it with the gorgeous elegance that is about to be staged.

And in the judges' seat, many people's eyes are different.

When the maiden on stage came out in the first round with a Beethoven sonata, the rapids ended hastily.

She received far more skepticism than praise.

Most of the judges felt that her handling was too personal.

Most of the contestants thought she should play Chopin.

It's as if she has to be treated differently because of her special status.

And at this time, op25.no2, which is about to be staged between the girl and the piano, has aroused everyone's appetite again.

This work deserves everyone's attention, whether in front of the stage or behind the scenes.

'Three degrees. ’

This is just a title, and like 'Revolution', 'Torrent', 'Butterfly' and 'Spinning Top', 'Third Degree' is just a musical title in Chopin's 24 etudes.

There has always been a lot of controversy in the international community about the ranking of the difficulty of the whole set of Xiao Lian, but even those critics who always write art journals out of touch have to admit a fact.

The 'Third Degree' etude is a piece that many performers cannot master in their lifetime.

Every pianist who has experienced the baptism of Xiao Lian has been more or less abused by the targeted technique of one of the twenty-four pieces.

But the horror of the third degree is that 'it's just a piece, but almost everyone can encounter a technical difficulty in this work that no matter how hard they try, they can't get it.'"

"TM's fast descent is a nightmare. A certain little fat who finished this round of the game had already come to the audience and applauded with the audience.

And the girl in the black dress next to him was also full of antiquation in her eyes, "It is said that Shen Qingci fifteen years ago in the fourth round of the Asian International Piano Open Competition, a three-degree etude directly sent away the blind pianist Shijin Shinyuki, who was known as the national player of R country at that time, and became famous after that. ”

"It's really fake, why don't I know, who is fooling?"

Feng Xiaopang obviously didn't believe much in this rumor, and he thought he knew more about Shen Qingci than the other party.

"Dean Wu. ”

"Uh....look, she's getting started. “

Finally, the applause of the audience stopped, and the girls on the stage were ready

The left hand seems to be completely lying on the keys, and the five fingers of the right hand are like hooks.

The hands are completely asymmetrical, but they don't look awkward.

Moment.

The fingers of her right hand moved, one or four fingers pressed and lifted instantly, then two or five fingers pressed, then one or three fingers, and then two or five fingers....

In this cycle, the dense and alternating sound effects quickly expand to the whole audience with the piano as the center.

The girl's right hand is like a typewriter, and at the beginning it tells to enter each set of double tones precisely.

After the left hand and pedal are added at the same time, the color of the whole melody changes significantly with the intensity

The slight delay of 0.1 seconds in the left hand makes the whole music smooth and smooth, and the speed is stable and forward.

No wonder her left hand is attached to the keys, and she is completely using a large area of her fingers to touch the keys to create a sense of delay in pronunciation, so as to achieve the speed coordination of the left and right hands. ”

"The slowing and crescendo of measure 18 feels like Friedman's version. ”

"I think the magnitude of her change in tempo is more like Borini's approach. ”

"It's another first-class technology stream. ”

"This session is really all demons. ”

In the middle and back of the spectator seat, there was also a row of young people who had come here today for the game.

......

Background.

The five people in front of the screen were silent.

After Qin Jian admitted that he succeeded Fang Zongyao's Majepa, he was once again shocked by Duan Ran's three times.

Although the difficulty of the third degree is still divided, no one can avoid the third degree of the right hand.

A normal adult who alternately lifts the four, two, and five fingers of his right hand in two groups and presses them in two cycles to achieve several consecutive sets without making mistakes?

Regardless of the keyboard first, just a few empty buttons, Qin Jian has already begun to rub his wrist at this moment.

Although the volume of the girl on the stage is a little low overall, this is enough to face the previous doubts.

Thinking of the girl's somewhat deformed little thumb of her right hand, Qin Jian admired the girl on the stage even more for a while.

"Come on".

Although he really wanted to listen to the whole song, but time didn't allow it, Qin Jian sighed lightly, got up from the stool and stretched.

"It's almost time to prepare. ”

Muttering as he wandered down the hall, his mind beginning to clear up the superfluous rhythmic melodies.

The whole concert hall seems to have been quiet for a short time into the world of Chopin, endowed with natural scenery, completely replacing the previous resplendent with the dreamlike art of disguise, like a sky decorated by flocks of birds.

Fleeting.

All that remains is recollection.

When the reverberation spreads to the last moment in the audience.

Applause rang out.

The maiden made some kind of mysterious grafting of the beauty of nature with Chopin's third degree etude, which won her applause.

"This kid knows what he's playing, Shen is not only an excellent performer, but also a brilliant guide, it's so rare, to have such a young person, it's too precious for a country's music development. ”

"Mr. Kobayashi, there are many outstanding young people in country R. ”

"Too much worse, too much worse. ”

The girl still had a faint expression, as if she had completed something indifferent, came to the middle of the stage and bowed slightly, and floated off the stage from the other side.

"The thirteenth contestant - Qin Jian, selected by the Quanzhou Musicians Association"

"He will bring the following tracks"

"An Anthology of Monbal Piano Works—"

"The Girl in the Garden"

"Instructor, He Jing"

The host's voice fell.

The sliding door at the edge of the stage is pulled open.

I saw a young man in black pants and a white shirt calmly walking out of it.

As soon as the young man appeared, his eyes looked into the depths of this audience, his wandering eyes seemed to be looking for something, and suddenly, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and under the warm light of the stage, he looked particularly gentle.

The end of the boy's gaze.

The woman sighed softly, her eyes flickered, and she left all the superfluous emotions in her mind behind, leaving only two words, come on.

...

"Sure enough, it was him. On another row of seats not far from the woman, a young man sitting in the middle pushed the frame of his glass, with an excited expression on his face, "It's Federico Mompo,"

"Brother Heng, who is Meng Bo?"

Who is Mompo?

This question is not only in the audience, but even in the hearts of many contestants.

Zhao Yinuo was thinking again, Feng Ziyan poked wildly with a mobile phone without a signal grid, and Duan Ran frowned and looked at the leftmost hand of the first row of judges' seats.

On the far left hand of the first row of judges' seats, the man's expression seemed a little abnormal, his constricted pupils were no longer as normal as before, his thoughts seemed to have dropped anchor, and he muttered to himself.

"Federico..."
