After Qin Jian, Adams took the stage.

The two also looked at each other at the entrance of the backstage, this time the reporters gathered around Qin Jian, and Adams, accompanied by the agent lady, stood quietly and watched silently.

Counting the competition, which should have happened last year, was a full year and a half late.

Perhaps someone has long forgotten the details of that game.

But Qin Jian can't forget Adams's withdrawal, when he was just a high school student who rushed to Vienna from China, and the other party was already an honorary European great performer.

He vividly remembers the press at the time calling Adams 'the modern-day Mozart.' ’

But it was the Austrian star who was dubbed the 'modern Mozart' who withdrew from the match that should have been his stage.

At that time, some Western media found a lot of reasons for Adams, and some of them alluded to the loss of Qin Jian's championship.

This is no longer a matter of praising and stepping on, as the Western media of dog days have always been.

Afterwards, Qin Jian could only scold the mother in private to the Western media.

But despite the title debate, he has always hoped to have a head-to-head battle with Adams.

The reason is that there is a bit of a fight for fame.

Half a year later, at the end of the Chopin competition, he learned that Adams was back.

At that time, he knew that he and the other party would definitely meet again on the stage.

After two rounds of the draw, the two finally appeared in the same group of competitions.

This time, he was the first to act.

Back in the rest room, Qin Jian hugged Duan Ran and sat in front of the big screen.

"Do you still care about last year's game?"

Duan Ran drew circles on his chest.

Qin Jian grinned and replied loudly: "I'm a person who holds grudges. ”

"It's just you~" Duan Ran sneered, "It's not." ”

"Then who is more handsome, me or him?" asked Qin Jian.

"He's ugly!"

Duan Ran replied with a smile, "You are the most handsome." ”

Qin Jian nodded, he felt that what Duan Ran said was good.

However, he also pointed to the right way: "You can't be too objective in everything, and you should pay attention to it in the future." ”

"Hahaha," Duan Ran's 'mua' kissed Qin Jian's face, "I remember it~"

"Good. ”

The palm fell.

...

On stage, Adams had already begun to play.

Having cut off his long hair, Adams, who now has short hair, sits in front of the piano with less elegance and more condensation.

Of course, handsome is still the same handsome.

His playing style is sleek and elegant, whether Mozart or Chopin.

Looking at several rounds of Adams's repertoire performances, it is not difficult to hear the ingenuity of his playing.

If you talk about the three-dimensional image of music, he can be ranked in the top five among the 77 contestants.

This is due to his German-Austrian piano background, and he portrays the theme and line of the music very well.

And he has long since broken away from the shell of the German-Austrian piano in countless concerts, as can be seen in his second round of majestic polonaise.

In this round, he played the third sonata, and the details of the four movements were perfectly polished, and the phrases were suspiciously out of the beatmap, but they were convincing.

If it's just a random play, then even the perfect detail is just decorating cow dung.

In the final mazurka, Adams shows a technique that surprises all professionals.

He skillfully used the asymmetry of the left and right hands to change the chords in Op 59 to arpeggios, which immediately caught the eyes of many old Polandes.

The antiques of the fourth-generation jury, including Andrzere, remembered this style of play from a young age.

This was the way Chopin masters of the old school used to deal with it.

The two-handed asymmetrical playing method is a masterpiece.

It is often necessary for the player to choose when to use the harmonies and piano overtones in the work, depending on whether they are appropriate.

Usually the bass is responsible for the harmonic basis of the phrase, and if the fundamental note appears first, and the right-hand melody appears a little later, then the right-hand melody will naturally be more supported by the fundamental overtones, and the resonance will be more beautiful and full.

And how to use it, and where to use it, is the difficulty in this technology.

If it is not used properly or the musical motive is not grasped, the sound of the piano becomes unreasonable, giving the impression of being asymmetrical for the sake of pure asymmetry.

But Adams skillfully manipulated this skill, the music was strong and weak, bright and dark, and the melodic color changed between his palms.

Energetic Polish mazurka music.

Adams continued to break through the audience's preconceived notions of him on stage today, playing a mazurka full of German-Austrian spirit.

When he dropped the last note, there was a burst of applause from the audience that was not weaker than Qin Jian's exit.

Take a bow.

Adams smiled charmingly again at the audience, as if to tell the world stage that he was back.

...

"Asymmetrical two-handed playing. ”

During the break, Qin Jian automatically ignored Adams's appearance on the screen, and his mouth was still chattering.

He only heard Shen Qingci mention this kind of performance, and Shen Qingci said that this kind of performance appeared 100 years ago when the piano technology was not developed enough.

In order to pursue a more resonant tone, the performers of that period would deliberately change the counterpoint marked on the score during the performance with the help of the harmonic principle of the piano strings, so as to change the sound color of the music.

Qin Jian didn't expect that Adams had already mastered such a performance technique, and judging from the other party's skillful use, it was not an overnight thing to practice.

"Is this an early hole card?"

Qin Jian muttered in his heart, and then applauded.

It was found that Adams had completed his master's degree at the Vienna State Conservatory of Music and obtained a virtuoso diploma, and his piano teacher throughout his college years was a professor named Gust Koch. ”

"Gust Koch," Duan Ran repeated, "I hadn't heard of this name at school, and there was no specific information on the Internet. ”

Qin Jian hadn't heard of it either, but he had already written down the name, "Does he have any other teachers?"

After a while, "I didn't find it." Duan Ran looked at the phone screen and said.

Qin Jian nodded.

He was already tempted by Adams's two-handed asymmetrical playing, and he believed that there should be many old fellows who still had this technique in their hands.

"Intermission, hungry or not?"

"Hungry~"

"Let's go. ”

"Hey, I want to eat steak. ”

"Good. ”

After lunch, Qin Jian accompanied Duan Ran to the piano room.

Although he still wanted to see Xia Shu in the afternoon, she had to accompany Duan Ran.

...

After returning to the hotel in the evening, Qin Jian watched the replay of the afternoon game.

Natsuki's performance is not bad, except for the fourth movement of the final sonata, which is a little exhausted.

23:12。

"Sleep. Qin Jian saw that the time was not early, and urged Duan Ran to say, "Don't look at it, take care of your energy, get up tomorrow and go through the score." ”

"Hmm. Duan Ran put down the score and obediently put on Pikachu.

Good night lights out.

...

Half an hour after a quiet day.

"Qin Jian~"

"Hmm. ”

"I... Nervous..."

"Huh?"
