Chapter 44: Broken Chapters from Czerny
It's better to be quiet during your lunch break.
After all, it is not a private villa of several hundred square meters.
It is still necessary to maintain good interpersonal relationships with neighbors.
Qin Jian returned to the house after eating and drinking, and lay down on the bed with the booklet of the 740 etude and He Jing's music stand.
Again, we carefully studied the questions that we had summarized in the morning.
While humming, he looked at the score lying on the bed, and played it with his hands on his lap.
"It's still not right here. β
"It feels better that way. β
Gradually, Qin Jian hummed and played like this, and it didn't take a while.
Fell asleep.
......
2:37 a.m.
Qin Jian shook his body in a daze, and the moment his eyes opened open, he hummed two etude melodies in his mouth, and clicked his mouth twice.
......
Get up, get up!
Qin Jian jumped out of bed, moved his hands and neck, came to the bathroom, turned on the faucet, took the water, and splashed his face twice with cold water.
Back at the piano, I spread out the etude and went through the sheet music again in my mind.
See how this goes.
"Whew".
Adjust your breathing.
"Pay attention to controlling the strength and walk the strength throughout the body. β
Qin Jian kept reminding himself in his heart.
"Pay attention to the speed. β
Gradually, Qin Jian felt that his sense of hearing became more sensitive, in the house, the sound of the high-frequency signal of the TV, the sound of water filling in the radiator, and even the crying of the child next door were all perceived.
Begin.
The left hand was lifted instantly, and it ran directly on the keys, still four sets of sixteenth notes.
Then, with the addition of the right hand chord intensity, the pure white color of the whole C major adds a touch of comfort to the warm afternoon room.
As the music progressed, Qin Jian felt that his hand speed was gradually getting worse, and there was a trace of uneven precursors in the entire music line.
Fortunately, there is Chris's beginner's guide, and he is always adjusting himself in his mind.
"Lowering the unnecessary height of the finger and driving with gravity. β
Qin Jian tried his best to remind himself according to the notes he had summarized on the score.
It seems that Cadance has returned.
[Worship value +1 from Liu Damei]
The two-handed movement of the sixteenth note became more and more steady.
At the last moment of nearly three minutes of playing, Qin Jian still maintained the strength suitable for the whole piece to complete the last two sets of chords.
Whoa, whoop β
"Ding, a new item has been found. β
A long-lost voice sounded in his ears, but Qin Jian didn't open it for the first time, and was still immersed in the performance just now.
Fingers gestured in the air for a moment.
Until a satisfied smile appeared on his face, Qin Jian picked up his phone and turned on the stopwatch.
"This time, on the basis of the existing basis, we must bounce the speed to two minutes and forty-five seconds. β
Begin.
The left hand was running tirelessly again.
......
When the room was quiet again, Qin Jian glanced at the stopwatch.
"Two minutes and forty-seven seconds, a difference of two seconds, which is about a lot faster than the first time, but at the same time, there is also about four to five seconds of rhythm instability this time, and there are four wrong notes. β
Qin Jian recorded a few more strokes on the score.
Take a break.
Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Qin Jian opened the panel.
XP (96/100).
Looking at the experience that is about to level up, it is false to say that there is no fluctuation in the heart.
Qin Jian panicked in his heart.
But it's not something you can control, so let's do it for now.
Either go with the flow or spontaneously combust with the air.
After glancing at the gold coins, today's exercise pulled back the number of gold coins a bit.
Qin Jian finally opened the inventory with red dots.
"Purple item??"
Qin Jian looked at the last grid of the inventory and was a little surprised, although it was only a relatively light purple, but after all, this was the first purple prop he had "exploded"!
"About Beethoven's memoirs?"
[About Beethoven's Memoirs]
[Item introduction]: The teacher always seems to be gentle, I remember it was a winter afternoon, my father took me to a loft......
Beethoven's three words instantly aroused Qin Jian's great interest.
This was the first time Qin Jian had seen an item with the name of a treasure-level musician in the space.
This TM is a happy saint!!
But who is Carl?
Qin Jian couldn't wait to open it.
The picture flashed, and the parchment-like pages reappeared.
"For a long time, most people wanted me to talk about Beethoven's work. β
"I studied under Beethoven from the age of 10, studying all of his works, many of which were under the guidance of Beethoven himself. β
"In addition, my friendship with this great master lasted until his death, and our association was very beneficial to me. β
"In the end, I would be delighted if the information I provided met your expectations. ββββKarl Czerny"
"Carl... Czerny .....?!"
Qin Jian was stunned.
"I see. β
Qin Jian felt a little ashamed, as a professional background, he didn't even know this.
However, the teacher-student relationship between Czerny and Beethoven is widely circulated.
So the information provided is about the performance of Beethoven's works?
Qin Jian couldn't wait to read it.
But after turning nearly 20 pages in a row, Qin Jian sadly found that this is an instruction manual, which is clearly a memoir, and it is also a record of life.
Twenty minutes passed, and Qin Jian gradually discovered some interesting parts, such as the admiration of Mozart in Czerny as a child.
Moreover, Qin Jian also found that Comrade Czerny was a little narcissistic.
"My father was very enthusiastic about piano teaching, and the famous musician Grinai was a frequent guest of my father, and the two often discussed music late into the night, so I can say that I started my music education in the cradle. β
"Maybe I'm a pretty precocious child, I can play the piano at the age of three, and before I am ten years old I can recite works by Mozart and Clementi......"
"One day, Grinai said to his father: 'I'm going to a piano salon competition tonight, and I'm going to have to play well and give the other party a head-on blow so that they can see how good they are.' I still remember this sentence vividly. β
Grinai?
Qin Jian gave himself another big look, still not knowing.
"The next day, my father met Grinai again, and asked him: 'How was the match yesterday?' but the other man's expression changed drastically, and he gritted his teeth and said: 'It is my own taste!!!!, my opponent, the young man is the embodiment of the devil, and I have seen it for the first time, and I gave him a question to improvise, but after that, I was confident that Mozart would not be able to play like him. In short, what this guy shows on the piano is a difficult technique and performance that we could never have dreamed of. β
My father was also curious: 'Who is this man?'"
"'Well, it's a tall, dark-skinned fellow, stubborn-looking, unsightly, I heard that the Countess Moklay is from country D, and his name is-"
"Beethoven. β
