Chapter 189: Promoted to the Top 16

Paris Opera.

Whispers rang out throughout the game.

Redface's performance in this round was a surprise.

He actually chose to use a piano piece with extremely low performance difficulty to confront Rakshasa's "Rhapsody of Anger", this kind of move really made people sweat.

But in the scene, only insiders understand that the person who is really dangerous may not be red-faced.

"Castle in the Sky" is not an ordinary third-level piano piece, although it is simple, it is a return to the basics after the piano technique has multiplied to the peak.

A few constantly repeated melodies are not monotonous at all, and the audio-visual effects are not lost to famous songs like "Rhapsody of Anger".

Just because of this condition, there are very few pianists on the scene who can do it.

After all, this is the work of the famous musician Jean Hisaishi in another parallel world.

As soon as "Castle in the Sky" came out, it was an instant sensation.

In the audience, many people quietly wept.

"What kind of fairy song is this? ”

"There is an inexplicable sense of sadness that haunts my heart. ”

"Red-faced is such a genius, I wrote "Croatian Rhapsody" before, and now I have created "Castle in the Sky", I like it so much!"

"Boom, what a tear-jerking tune. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

The overall melody of the song "Castle in the Sky" itself is rather sad, and it is especially tear-jerking for audiences with stories.

The advantages of taking the original route are fully displayed here.

This debut performance has a power that no other existing world famous song can bring.

"It's really an amazing performance, the strength of the two contestants makes me feel comparable, so let's leave the stage to the professional judges and teachers!"

The host, Cami, stepped out from behind the curtain and invited Rakshasa back to the main stage.

The two stood on both sides of the stage, one on the left and one on the right, quietly waiting for the judges to start scoring.

"I have to say that "Castle in the Sky" gives me a very peculiar feeling, this piece does not have too flashy techniques, but it can easily move people's hearts, no technique is better than skill, I like this form of performance very much. ”

"So I'm giving you a rating of - eight!"

The old headmaster, William, was the first to speak, and a not-so-low evaluation came out of his mouth.

Eight points!

In the hands of strict William, this result is already very good, and Rakshasa is also eight points.

It can be said that almost every player who scores eight points will end up with a score of more than ninety.

Rakshasa clenched his palms and did not speak.

The red face was motionless, and his heart seemed to be a little nervous.

Challenging "Rhapsody of Rage" with a piece in the form of a big music is still too risky.

And William, the most authoritative, did not have an advantage, both of them had the same starting point, which led to the scores of the next nine judges full of uncertainty.

The audience also sweated.

On the serious and sacred stage, the second judge expressed his opinion without a smile, and gave a full score.

This relieved many red-faced supporters, and the full score evaluation was gratifying.

The game continues.

One by one, the judges scored the scores.

Five minutes later.

The final result of the competition is in.

Cami stood in the center of the stage, with an interested look on his face, and raised his eyebrows: "Everyone, the final total score of the red-faced contestants has been counted, compared to the ninety-three points with Rakshasa , the score of the red-faced player isβ€”β€”"

At this, his voice paused.

The videographer immediately gave a close-up.

The audience in the audience was also nervously sticking out half of their necks, and their palms were sweaty.

Although there is no soundtrack like a variety show, the atmosphere at the scene is extremely tense.

After a two-second pause, Cami finally spoke.

"The red-faced contestant's score is - ninety-four!"

"Let's congratulate the red-faced contestants on making the cut!"

The voice fell, and the scene was in an uproar.

Red-faced supporters breathed a sigh of relief.

It's too dangerous!

Just a little bit!

Rakshasa ninety-three, red-faced ninety-four.

There was only one point between the two.

And this point is the dividing line between the winner and the loser, and one point determines who is qualified to go higher and farther.

Redface successfully reached the round of 16 and became a fierce man who qualified to compete for the quarterfinals.

Rakshasa's performance was also good, but unfortunately he was unlucky enough to lose it, and in the end he could only stop at the top 32.

As a result, the dust fell to the ground.

Under the mask, He Xiao also breathed a sigh of relief.

To be honest, when William's rating came out, He Xiao's heart was also quite nervous.

Because his move in this round is a risky act in itself, he doesn't dare to pat his chest and promise that he will definitely advance.

Although "City in the Sky" is a world famous song, it is not suitable for competition, He Xiao is forcibly moved out to perform, full of uncertainty.

Fortunately, Lady Luck was on his side, and only the third-level difficulty piano music really beat the performance-level masterpiece "Rhapsody of Rage".

Cami looked at Rakshasa and couldn't help but remember what he said before, so he asked with a smile, "Rakshasa player, did you choose to uncover your face?"

Rakshasa's body shook for a moment, and after a long silence, he finally nodded.

Willing to gamble and lose, he still chose to uncover his face.

A pair of somewhat swarthy palms trembled out of their sleeves, placed on the grimace mask, and then were taken off little by little.

Under the mask, there is a male face, a high nose, deep eyes, but the skin is very dark.

"It's ...... Indians?"

"I remember, this is the 92nd ranked Indian Galava in the Top 100!"

There was an uproar in the audience.

Galava is one of the few Indian players in the Isabella Piano Competition.

Compared with those popular players who are in the limelight, Galava is very low-key, like a transparent person, and even when it comes to the top 100, his performance is extremely unoutstanding, just entering the top 100.

But who would have thought that his true strength was so deeply hidden, that it was definitely an existence that could be ranked in the top ten, on par with Anthony and others.

After He Xiao saw his true face, he also suddenly realized.

Although Buddhism is a great religion in China, it originated in India, so it makes sense why he was codenamed "Rakshasa".

Galava is clearly intent on hiding his strength and making the crowd ignore him until the final.

But he didn't expect that the following games were anonymous, and after putting on the mask, he regained his true nature, and he desperately wanted to slaughter the gods, so much so that he released cruel words to bet on the red face.

After Galava unveiled, he fulfilled the thoughts in everyone's hearts, and also gained a lot of fans, although he did not go to the end of the competition, but he came to participate in the Isabella Piano Competition this time is also full of harvest.

After all, it's easy to say that he has reached the top 32, and he has made a move with a hot red face, and this alone is enough to be proud.
