278. This is indeed a good thing
Professor Bachmann, Head of the Piano Department at the University of Performing Arts and Arts in Vienna, is also a member of the jury of the Mozart Competition. ”
"President Rigel, President of the Mozart Music Society, this is not the first time you have met, at the Fuge Bar, in Tokyo, I won't say more. ”
Shen Qingci introduced Qin Jian, and Duan Ran and Liao Linjun also stood up.
Liao Linjun and the two knew each other, and Shen Qingci introduced Duan Ran to Bachman alone.
"Hello, Mr. Bachmann. Duan Ran greeted the other party in English
Bachmann's smile revealed maternal kindness, and he responded to Duan Ran with a thumbs up, "Norma's memories, very wonderful Liszt." ”
Fluent in English made Qin Jian wonder if every musician must be multilingual.
"Thank you. Duan Ran nodded obediently and replied to the other party.
For a moment, the atmosphere at the dinner table was like a small diplomatic scene.
Duan Ran spoke French and communicated with Riggle.
Liao Linjun spoke German and communicated with Bachmann.
Shen Qingci spoke French from time to time, German from time to time, and occasionally a word of Chinese.
Qin Jian was responsible for laughing and nodding.
After a moment of greetings, the cold appetizers were served to the waiter on a plate.
Dinner begins.
Qin Jian had eaten Western food, but for him, the use of knives and forks was obviously not as proficient as playing a musical scale.
But fortunately, no one made fun of him.
A harmonious dinner is naturally indispensable for conversation.
At the beginning, it was basically four adults exchanging all kinds of interesting things in this competition.
The two little ones were discussing the dishes.
"Do you eat this every day in France?"
"Of course not, and instant noodles. ”
Qin Jian nodded in understanding, if it were him, he probably wouldn't be able to eat such a thing for several days in a row, not to mention the taste, this amount was really pitiful.
But the onion soup is really good.
With the arrival of the main course.
Everyone's topic gradually shifted to Qin Jian.
Under Shen Qingci's translation, everyone communicates more normally.
Rigel seems to be very enthusiastic about the 'Chris's Variation No. 7', but apart from Duan Ran, none of the four people present are uninterested in this topic.
"I've checked all the information, but I really haven't found any clues, can you tell me about this work?" Riegel looked at Qin Jian with a smile.
Qin Jian had long expected this scene, so he had already prepared a statement.
"This piece was written by an old friend of mine. Qin Jian said seriously.
With the translation of Shen Qingci, the two old men were sunk, and indeed as they expected, this work was born today.
Feeling the sincerity in Qin Jian's tone, Riegel felt a little lost in his heart, Qin Jian's answer was not what he expected.
But he continued to ask: "Is this old friend of yours called Chris, I mean a lot of composers with extraordinary personalities like to use pseudonyms, does he have any other works, such as work No. 1, work No. 2, is it in sonata format, or is it a large concerto or something?"
Shen Qingci was translating, Qin Jian nodded, he didn't want to deceive this charitable old man, but some questions were unclear, and he was a little embarrassed in his heart for a while.
He thought about it.
"Maybe it's a pseudonym, he's a quirky person, as for other works, I'll know when I get it," Qin Jian picked up a knife and fork, lamely cut off a piece of steak and fed it to his mouth, chewed for a while, nodded with a praising gaze, and said, "It's delicious, but the portion is too small." ”
"That's why I've been so skinny since I was a kid. Riegel added.
Everyone laughed.
Seeing that Qin Jian didn't want to say more, Liao Linjun came out to play a round game, beckoned everyone not to patronize, and then called the waiter to order two more steaks.
The topic went from Chris to Huayun again.
From the Huayun Competition, there is a difference between Chinese and Western music education.
After Riegel praised Shen Qingci fiercely.
The focus turned to Qin Jian again.
"So, what are your plans for the future?" Bachman asked Qin Jian.
Qin Jian's answer was, "I will study in China for a period of time for the time being, and then make other plans when the time is right." ”
Qin Jian felt that he had thought it through, and he was sure that no one knew better than him what he needed right now.
The precipitation of skills takes time, and there is still a lot of time to hear and see, and he now needs a quiet period of solitude with the piano.
Regarding Qin Jian's answer, Liao Linjun and Duan Ran already knew it, but Shen Qingci was a little surprised, "Have you thought about it?"
"Hmm. Qin Jian replied.
"Which courtyard are you going to go to?" Shen Qingci asked again.
"Whatever. Qin Jian answered casually on the surface, but he already had Xiao Jiujiu in his heart, but this was before he filled in the volunteers.
Shen Qingci smiled and said, "Also, it's the same wherever you go, it is estimated that if this news is released, several compounds in the country will fight for it." ”
"Tsk," Duan Ran added, "Look at some people's beauty." ”
Liao Linjun translated the conversation between the three to Bachmann.
Moment.
Bachmann laughed as well, and then extended an olive branch, "If the future is possible, I welcome you on behalf of the Vienna University of Arts and Performance." ”
"It's an honor," Qin Jian replied respectfully, "Vienna must be my first stop." ”
It was also one of his earliest plans.
After Shen Qingci relayed Qin Jian's words to Bachmann, the other party said that he was very happy.
"I'm sure he'll be back," she said, "Shen, did you tell him about that?"
"Not yet, you can say it. Shen Qingci said with a smile, "After all, this is the decision of the organizing committee, or the chairman is more formal, I am just a translator of the message." ”
"Okay, but there may be some changes to the decision, and on the issue of the contract, I think it can be extended for another year. ”
"What do you mean..."Shen Qingci's eyes lit up, but Liao Linjun on the side frowned slightly, and his eyes flickered.
Looking at the two of them chatting non-stop, Qin Jian was confused again.
...
Five minutes later.
Bachman coughed lightly, looked at Qin Jian and said, Shen Qingci translated word by word.
"Given your performance at this Mozart Competition. ”
"The official organizing committee has decided to unite with DG, the sponsor of this competition. ”
"Record a personal record of Mozart's collection for your release. ”
"This record will be produced by the Berliner Philharmonic. ”
"By the way, Petrenko is very interested in your Mozart. ”
As Shen Qingci's words fell, Qin Jian's heart was surging.
Mozart's works are recorded!
DG, Europe's most famous classical music record label.
Petrenko is the current chief conductor of the Berlin Philharmoniker, one of the world's three major symphony orchestras.
As for the release of a solo album...
At a certain level, a musician's achievements can no longer be measured by an international competition ranking.
Which top conductors have worked with, what level of concerts have been held, what kind of recordings have been recorded, these are the symbols of their level and popularity.
"This..." is a good thing.
