Perhaps this is where great musicians have a unique taste.

Maybe it's because Chopin understands women too well, so he wants to challenge some areas that he is not good at.

Shen Qingci once commented on Chopin's works in a class - "Chopin's works are more delicate than any woman's heart." ”

Even now, Qin Jian maintains a trace of doubt, it may be that his understanding of women is far inferior to that of the other party.

However, in his opinion, music should still start from the notes, and the views provided by Shen Qingci are still biased towards an impressionist description.

Of course, this stems from the fact that the other party is originally from a French piano.

However, Qin Jian also knew that his Chopin could not just stay at the current stage.

...

On the fourth day after returning home.

Department 309, Huaguo Conservatory of Music.

Qin Jian had just finished his basic morning practice, and after three days of trying, he was now able to complete the octave two-tone practice from monophony to all key scales in three hours according to the planned time.

Then he opened the track list for this Xiao Sai DVD audition.

He groaned for a moment.

"Change the mood today and start with the mazurka. ”

The next second.

The piano sounds.

The air dances like a gorgeous waltz in three beats of joy.

‘2’

Qin Jian's fingers were also dancing.

...

Yes, 309 is now not only the place where Qin Jian practiced, but also his living room.

This is also because the school is on holiday, and the student apartment has been sealed.

After Shen Qing got off the plane, he also provided Qin Jian with two options, go with him or go to the coffee table piano hall.

Qin Jian felt uncomfortable in the former, and the latter was comfortable, but it was too far away from the school.

The art exam will be held in a few days, and he needs to accompany Fang Xiaoyu here to complete the exam.

In the end, fortunately, he lived in 309, which could also meet his request to suddenly get up in the middle of the night to practice the piano.

The night he came back, he made a plan for the rest of the day.

Because the date of submitting the audition DV is February 20th, although there is still a month to go, it involves the New Year and the recording problem.

According to the recording details required by the organizers, Shen Qingci's suggestion was to let him record in Yanjing.

Whether it is the stage, recording equipment and recording technology, the advantages in Yanjing are definitely much greater than those in Nanshi, and Qin Jian is also clear about this.

In addition, this year's Chinese New Year is on February 19, so for the sake of insurance, Qin Jian plans to record the DV ten days to a week in advance, so that he can go home early to accompany his parents with peace of mind.

There are still one to two days to accompany Fang Xiaoyu for the art test.

In this way, the time left for him to prepare for the audition DV is only about 20 days.

These 20 days are not Qin Jian's time to prepare for the DV audition, these five works he had already prepared last year.

Qin Jian is completely sure of entering the preliminary round.

In addition to practicing and consolidating his auditions, he will also use this time to select the repertoire that will go to Warsaw in April for the first round of the preliminary round.

After the New Year, we will face the start of school.

So it's completely his personal twenty days, and he's going to make the most of it.

When he participated in the Huayun Competition, due to his shallow music library, his focus could only be on how to skillfully arrange the order of the repertoire so that he could go through one more round and gain more worship points

When he participated in the Mozart Competition, he did a lot of preparation, but his original intention was just to appreciate the demeanor of foreign powerhouses.

After experiencing two large-scale competitions at home and abroad, coupled with this trip to Russia and seeing the display of academic schools from various countries, Qin Jian is now facing the Chopin Competition, from his mentality to the music library, including his performance skills.

Of course, all this is too early for the result of the game.

It's just a state of Qin Jian's game.

In other words, this is the first time that Qin Jian plans to seriously face the Chopin Competition with an attitude of wanting to play a competition, which is known as the ultimate battlefield for pianists around the world, and the Olympiad in the music industry.

If it's a game, you have to have tactics.

In this regard, Shen Qingci taught Qin Jian a lot of experience.

Xiao Sai's mobile jury system means that the judges are different for each session, which means that the tastes of the judges are different for each session.

The term 'Chopin's taste' is peculiar to Warsaw.

Even every Warsaw person has his own Chopin taste, and it has to be said that this is a unique cultural phenomenon in the piano world.

Almost every Chopin competition will have two situations, the first is that there are always seeded players who are predetermined by the outside media to win the championship in the second or third round, and the other is that there are always one or two obscure dark horses emerging when the competition enters the final round after the first few rounds of fighting.

This is the charm of Xiao Sai, no one dares to pat their chests and say that they will definitely make it to the final, and a passerby can also win the championship in one fell swoop and advance to the international stage and become a high-profile grand pianist.

Therefore, studying the appetite of the judges has become a must-have homework for every contestant before the competition.

Qin Jian agrees with this, but he also has his own insistence, so he plans to choose two of the four pieces in the first round of the main competition to play in his own style, and the other two songs to try to show favor to the Polish judges. ’

In this way, he can not only show himself, but also make some good impressions on some of the key judges.

It's easy to get to know the tastes of a judge, you don't even need to take his master classes and lectures, you just have to listen to his performances.

In the next twenty days, Qin Jian planned to spend another six hours studying the works of these Polish performers, looking for the most important information in music, in addition to not listening to the necessary practice time.

This kind of information may be his magic weapon in some cases.

It is certainly not easy to summarize the characteristics of each person's playing style and work, which requires the summarizer to have strong performance skills.

It just so happens that what Qin Jian lacks most for the time being is technology.

Of course, this is just a preliminary plan for the official first round of preliminary rounds.

Take it one step at a time, and there's no need to rush.

...

...

After finishing the morning's practice, Qin Jian ate a night of fried noodles at the school gate at noon and then returned to 309.

After an hour's lunch break.

He sat down at the piano and opened his laptop to continue listening to yesterday's concert.

The player he was listening to at the moment was called Andrzere.

A veteran judge of Shaw Sai.

The style is fast and the luck is powerful.

Qin Jian listened to his Dongfeng theme passage repeatedly, about 15 times or so, and he stopped.

Then it was imitated on the piano.

"Sounds pretty good. ”

As he played, he recalled the other party's performance in his mind.

When the same passage was finished, he picked up his notebook and wrote it down.

'Pay attention to the ornamental speed'

'Left hand with ring finger as the center of gravity'

...

Six hours passed in the blink of an eye.
