Chapter 197: Panda's Identity Exposed!
This is a contest between "Supertechnical Etudes" and "Memories of Hughes", and it is also a collision of two world civilizations.
Although the development of parallel worlds should be similar, He Xiao always feels that the culture in the black phone is more fascinating than that in his own world.
I don't know if it's the principle of "domestic flowers are not as fragrant as wild flowers", He Xiao just thinks that the rice in other people's bowls is better than his own.
The music in the black phone is so amazing, and many of it can't be developed in my own world.
It's no wonder that He Xiao, with such a huge amount of civilization wealth in his hands, who can withstand it?
Since Panda chose "Memories of Huels", He Xiao did not hesitate to come up with this more difficult song to deal with it.
"Super Technique Etude" is known as the most difficult piano piece in history, and once this piece is played, the momentum is naturally not inferior to "Hughes's Memories".
So the panda felt threatened, and there was a faint feeling that he was going to stop in this round.
But even so, the panda still walked on the stage majestically.
"We are amazed by the extreme skills of the two contestants, this is really an unparalleled duel, I think it will definitely go down in piano history, but now, it is better to transfer the right to speak to the jury and complete the scoring of the red-faced contestants. ”
The host Cami appeared from the side, holding the microphone in his hand to speak, and holding He Xiao's shoulder, showing some familiarity.
The camera immediately shifted the picture from He Xiao's side to the judges' seat.
I saw the ten judges looking at each other, whispering to each other, and seemed to be a little hesitant.
This is the first time that the judges have been so entangled in the competition.
It's hard to score.
The performances of both men are the pinnacle, showing the piano skills to the peak, the momentum of opening and closing, and the perfect details, it is really difficult to decide which is stronger and which is weak.
After discussing with each other, they didn't come up with a definite result, so in the end, they had to score each according to their own feelings.
The aesthetics of each judge are different, although they are all authoritative, it is impossible to achieve complete unity, some can score 10, and some will only give 9 points.
A music professor from the Eastman School of Music stood up at this time and made the first comment:
"Red-faced player, first of all, I want to say that I am extremely surprised by your performance, this "Ghost Fire" is indeed very suitable as a high-level concert etude, I think this piece will become an indelible monument in the history of piano, enough to be included in the world's top ten famous songs, so I am willing to hand over my hand. ”
The Eastman School of Music is a dynamic and innovative new type of school among American conservatories.
It has been ranked No. 1 in the U.S. for many years and is recognized as the world's top conservatory.
It is also the only prestigious school that can compete with the Isabella Conservatory in France.
In addition to the old principal William, he was faintly led by the judges.
He can make such an evaluation, which really makes many players secretly envious now, and the audience is even more stingy to exclaim.
Because the judges of the Eastman School of Music, although not as strict as William, rarely scored 10 points, most of them were 9 or 8 points.
"Thank you, teacher. ”
He Xiao also got a ten-point evaluation from him for the first time, and immediately bowed and thanked him.
And with the beginning of this professor, the scene suddenly became lively, and one after another spoke, most of them were very evaluated, and only three people gave nine points.
In the end, only the old headmaster William was left who had not yet expressed his attitude.
One by one, the camera moved to William's head.
When the old artist saw such a battle, he was not stunned at all, coughed unhurriedly, held the note he had just made in his hand, and commented:
"You have very slender fingers, which allows you to play the tenths with ease, no matter how difficult the music, and this is what makes me very envious and identify with you. ”
"As for the piano piece "Ghost Fire"...... There is no doubt that very few people can play this repertoire, and probably only five or six people in the world can play it, and I am not one of them. ”
"So based on the above reasons, I think this stage and the world need a pianist like you, I can give you a score of nine, and no matter what your identity is under the mask, no matter your faith, no matter your skin color, I am willing to invite you to the hospital as a visiting professor on behalf of the Isabella Conservatory!"
As soon as this statement came out, the audience was shocked!
Even the clown, who had always been a child, leaned forward and stared at the stage.
No one expected that the old principal would value the red face so much and be willing to give the other party the status of a visiting professor!
That's a visiting professor at the Isabella Conservatory, and I don't know how many steps above other schools in terms of rank.
After all, the Isabella School of Music is recognized as the best institution in the world, and only the Eastman School of Music from the United States can compete slightly, and then there are other second-rate institutions such as Berklee College.
He Xiao was also stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect that the olive branch thrown by the college this time was not to enter the school to study, but to be a guest professor directly!
Come to think of it, his piano attainments have surpassed 90% of the contestants and judges on the scene, where do you still need to learn? It would be nice not to give them lessons.
In addition, in this round of competition, He Xiao performed Liszt's most famous song "Ghost Fire", and it was difficult not to be noticed.
What kind of person is Liszt?
That's the man Chopin admired, the king of the piano!
His influence on the piano is undoubted, almost everyone knows it, and it is reasonable for He Xiao to use his works to compete, and the old principal has such a big reaction.
"Is Isabella a Visiting Professor ...... Conservatory"
He Xiao lowered his head and whispered in his heart, and then his eyes gradually lit up.
If he can really become a professor at the world's No. 1 music school, then after he returns to China, he will not only be plated with a layer of gold, it is simply a wall, and anyone who sees it will be polite and give three points.
It can be said that he will be the walking authority when the time comes!
Just when everyone's hearts were shaken by the invitation thrown by Old William, Cami quietly came to the central position and began to count He Xiao's final score.
Counting the old principal William, a total of four people on the scene gave a nine-point evaluation, and the others were all ten, that is to say, He Xiao's final score can be subtracted by four.
So that's ...... Ninety-six points!
When this score was revealed, the scene was in an uproar again.
"Oh my God!"
"The red face is really surpassing the panda!"
"Ninety-six points, this evaluation is too high!"
"It's been two months since the game started, and there aren't many 96 points in total......
The exclamations were almost irrepressible.
The panda looked at the score, and was also distracted for a moment, and finally smiled on his face and said congratulations to He Xiao.
He only had a 95-point evaluation, so the game came to this point, and it became his finish, only one point apart, regrettably, and stopped in the quarterfinals.
"It's a shame, but that's the way it is, half a point is enough to tell the difference. Cammy shook the panda's hand regretfully, and then asked the question that the audience wanted to know the most: "Panda player, do you choose to unveil your face?"
He Xiao, the clown, the unicorn and others all looked at him.
The panda stood on the stage silent for a moment, as if hesitating, and nodded after a long while.
The round panda hood was lifted from his shoulder, and at this moment, countless pairs of eyes from all over the world stared closely.
The hood is lifted higher and higher, and finally ...... Uncovered!
I saw a jet-black hair thrown out, and then, a delicate makeup that captivated the country and the city came into everyone's eyes.
Cammy's eyes widened, the clown was stunned for a moment, Carol stood up with a bang, and even He Xiao on the stage, after seeing that face again, stumbled, revealing an extremely frightened look.
This......
How is this possible?
Why would it be her!
No reason?!
