The audience, backstage, applause and shouts are the best feedback from the audience to the stage performers.

Qin Jian got up and turned to the audience.

"Whoa————————

The applause made him feel that reality was close and far away.

At the moment when he was about to bow off the stage, he was suddenly a little reluctant to leave the arena.

He knew in his mind that whatever the result, his piano competition career should be over after this Chopin Competition.

More than half of his achievements so far have come in the arenas.

From the Huayun Competition to the Chopin Competition, from Yanjing to Warsaw, it was the piano competition that gave him the opportunity to make a name for himself.

This next bow was his last bow as a competitor.

Under everyone's attention, Qin Jian looked around the stage.

Finally, his gaze returned to the audience.

He saw He Jing, his parents, Liao Linjun, the old bartender, Shen Qingci, the old Assad, the old Haring...

He remembered this moment forever in his mind.

"Thank you. ”

Muttering in his mouth, he didn't know how much emotion this thank you contained.

Take a bow.

Ninety degrees, bow and bid farewell to the arena with the highest etiquette of a performer's stage.

This is Qin Jian's only way of expression that can give back to the stage and the audience in addition to performance.

Rise.

Turn around and leave.

"Whoop————————————————

The last round of applause was practiced for him.

"See you on the next stage. ”

He turned his back and raised his left hand.

'152843', clearly visible.

...

With the departure of the No. 57 player, the competition entered the ultimate white-hot stage.

The host took the stage to announce the last contestant to appear.

"The last player in the round is No. 66 from Austria..."

...

Qin Jian returned to the backstage and bumped into Adams, who was about to appear on the stage.

This scene, which should have happened a year and a half ago, finally happened today.

Two of the best Mozart players of the younger generation were reunited by fate on the Chopin Arena.

This time, no one chose to retire.

The two glanced at each other, Qin Jian didn't make any expression, and then walked past Adams.

Until the results are announced, it will still be a brutal game for him.

Adams stayed where he was for a moment and walked straight onto the stage.

Rejecting all reporters' requests for interviews, Qin Jian, accompanied by Duan Ran, went to the open-air rooftop in the corner of the backstage.

The evening breeze blew, and he felt that his breathing was much easier.

He could finally put away the memories of Xiao Yi's score in his mind.

This time it was okay, he didn't feel too strong to vomit.

Duan Ran guessed that Qin Jian needed to be quiet for a while, so she didn't make a sound, just quietly holding the other party's hand and standing aside.

Warsaw at night, the fire is bright.

An hour later, another name will be written into the city's history.

History will always remember only the winners.

...

On the stage, the fifth Xiao Yi has been carried out by a third of the way.

Adams' first movement is played very smoothly, with a coherent articulation and a complete musicality throughout the performance.

But after listening to Qin Jian's performance, many audiences in the audience will have such a feeling at this time.

In the overall collaboration between Adams and the orchestra, except for the particularly technically difficult passages, it is almost impossible to hear the subjectivity of his piano in the symphony.

This question is not that the audience is calling it true, but that the audience has auditory memory, and they still have Qin Jian's Xiao Yi in their minds.

But objectively speaking, this is not Adams's problem either.

Adams was just a piano soloist.

This is the case for every contestant in every competition, and it is inevitable that many musicians who will become masters in the future will not be able to do so in the final stage.

Because they don't have enough energy at this stage to understand the relationship between the conductor, the orchestra, and the soloist.

Players with experience in orchestra concerts can understand the personalities of the orchestra and conductor in a single rehearsal, and then quickly integrate with their own experience.

But they can only blend in at this stage, and cannot take the position of conductor as the main player.

In this and previous finals, the young contestants only have one chance to work with the host orchestra, and they may have done some great performances with other orchestras before the competition.

But it was only after numerous rehearsals and ensembles that the conductors would consult with them or coordinate with them during the many rehearsals.

But Marek will not compromise for any player on the field, and he must ensure that the orchestra is in a completely neutral position.

Adams was a well-known pianist, but he was not a conductor.

A soloist has no such thing as memorizing an orchestra score on his schedule.

That's the job of a conductor.

Adams is the epitome of all the contestants, and no contestant can fully memorize the band's score of hundreds of pages long for 40 minutes in his head.

...

But someone can.

Everyone has the hole cards, but in a different way.

...

As Adams listened backstage, he guessed whether Qin Jian had mastered Xiao Yi's score, and he thought it was the case since the idea came to his mind.

Because the information he obtained in the past year shows that Qin Jian already has his own orchestra and has rehearsed the magic flute, so he was also invited to participate in the German New Voice Opera Competition at the end of this year.

So Qin Jian is already an out-and-out conductor.

Playing behind Qin Jian again, Adams didn't know if he was really unlucky.

But having come to this point, all he can do is to press the last axis with all his might.

This time he came to the Chopin Competition to prove himself, to let everyone know how a pianist expresses music.

Just like at this moment, he was not affected by the thoughts he had before he came to power.

It was enough for him to play firmly as he had envisioned.

...

The first movement ends perfectly, and he begins the second movement.

At the beginning of the second movement, Adams shows the stage background of a famous pianist.

His body, his eyes, and the sound of the piano under his fingers all reveal the grace of the young Chopin's orchestra.

With his aristocratic appearance, gradually, the poet's heart and enthusiasm hidden in the music were revealed.

His theme is brilliant and the sub-section is full of melancholy, and the two contrast each other to present a clear sadness.

The beauty is precipitated in the tranquility, and the dense and smooth notes are interspersed with his reflections on music.

When calm self-confidence is reflected in a noble charm, the moving charm can reach the ultimate in musical language.

Adams' second movement ends in a state of bewilderment for the audience.

Compared to Qin Jian, his second movement is full of personnel and affairs.

...

The music moves on to the third movement, where Adams once again shows his cards.

Asymmetrical articulation.

The mood of the whirling mazurka in his hands is sometimes accelerated, sometimes random, and the free speed can be said to be free.

Under his performance, the time and space of the arena seemed to go back to 40 years ago.
