Chapter 297: Communication

The so-called connoisseurs will know whether there is one as soon as they make a move, and the connoisseurs look at the doorway and the layman sees the excitement, and the current No. 3 artist rehearsal room of the Puyin Rehearsal Center is full of connoisseurs.

Today, Yang Jingxing's performance is not at all the mechanical patchwork of notes when he was still in Shangpu High School, nor is it like the precise melodic chord expression when he worked with the New York Philharmonic.

Li Yingzhen knew that Yang Jingxing's real change was after the completion of the "Sonata in C sharp minor", and before that, Yang Jingxing was only making continuous progress.

After a mature and successful creation, Yang Jingxing did not continue to show progress that was difficult to adapt, but began to change. Although the change is very subtle, for Li Yingzhen or Yu Xinting's hearing, the feeling is very big.

And for this change, Li Yingzhen also gave considerable affirmation and encouragement. Li Yingzhen attributed Yang Jingxing's changes to his study and practice in composition, so he supported Yang Jingxing's creation and supervised it.

Yang Jingxing's reputation as a genius had just spread to that meeting, and his performance was to win the strength of everyone. At that time, when he played Mozart, he would have some Paul Badulla's charm, when he played Beethoven, he would have the advantages of Kempf and Giillles, and when he played Chopin, people would hear Rubinstein's style and skills from time to time......

Although Yang Jingxing's "imitations" are more obvious, this does not prevent him from having a reputation as a "genius". As long as you can be able enough to imitate Hrowitz, you must also be a well-deserved new generation of piano kings.

Pathos, Beethoven's early work No. 13, Piano Sonata No. 8 in C minor, is far less profound than the composer's later works. The difficulty of the work is not so scary, and it has a strong sense of drama and melodic beauty, so it has been played by many people, and when connoisseurs hear "PathΓ©tique", then he can come up with many versions in his mind to compare, especially the first movement and the third movement.

In the first few bars, Yang Jingxing made people's eyes drop, the main theme seemed to be jumping, the syncopation was not particularly obvious, and the rhythm change was almost deviant......

If it were the average listener, they would think that hearing another nice third movement of pathos would make no difference. But insiders look at the doorway, dozens of experts, people who are not familiar with Yang Jingxing all widened their eyes, as if they wanted to confirm whether it was the genius Yang Jingxing sitting in front of the piano. Only Li Yingzhen was not surprised and looked very relaxed.

In measure 2324, almost all piano teachers will emphasize the need to be light and coherent here, but Li Yingzhen seems to have neglected Yang Jingxing, and Yang Jingxing does not play so lightly. However, the little sense of heaviness that Yang Jingxing shows uncharacteristically here can't make people say that he doesn't learn and can't do anything, because it feels so seamless in one go.

In the one hundred and thirtieth section, Yang Jingxing became dexterous again, at least much gentler than the majestic atmosphere he had shown before.

......

Fortunately, the teachers and students are no longer nervous and worried. Yang Jingxing gave a lot of fresh interpretations and expressions, but he didn't make a mistake abruptly, he was playing, his expression was focused, his feelings were unified, and he ran through the beginning and the end.

At the end of a movement, everyone was quiet, no one applauded, and all eyes were looking at Yang Jingxing.

Yang Jingxing did not rest, and said to his peers: "Brahms Caprice." ”

There was some applause, but it stopped quickly, because Yang Jingxing started, and he was still so focused and engaged.

And after Brahms was finished, under the leadership of several professors, everyone made up for the applause owed to Beethoven.

At the beginning, many people may not understand that it is a genius to choose a song that inevitably seems ordinary.

If the historical time value is aside, this Brahms's caprice can indeed be said to be average, at least in the imagination genius is not very fond of this kind of work.

But after Yang Jingxing finished playing, many people understood that this birdman was here to show off. Yang Jingxing is almost robbing @ robbery, and through his performance and arrangement skills, he has snatched all the credit for Brahms's creation into his own hands, and he has robbed it so decently and decently, and the results are extraordinary.

Perhaps because Brahms's historical status is not as good as Beethoven's, Yang Jingxing does much more in this capriccio than when he plays pathos, not only in rhythm and priority, but he even dares to tamper with chord melodies!

As a performer, Yang Jingxing is risky in doing so. Regardless of whether his genius is recognized or not, for the vast majority of people, Yang Jingxing definitely does not have the radiant light radiated by a master like Horowitz. And without that dazzling light, don't expect your audience to do whatever you want.

Horowitz was able to revise his work according to his understanding and make it perfect in his mind, because he was a great master who could not produce one in hundreds of years, and he did it well, and the audience not only accepted it, but also liked it, and admired it.

But what kind of green onion is Yang Jingxing, don't be carried away by the professors who like to put gold on their faces, dare to be so nonsense.

So although the applause was warmer than before, the audience was not so excited and sincere. Everyone is more like to keep in line with the professors, like the subordinates of the masses to give the leaders who have talked a lot of nonsense on stage to end their verbosity.

As for what Yang Jingxing did, most people didn't dare to make a conclusion.

Yu Xinting is righteous enough, and she dares to give Yang Jingxing a big face in front of everyone's eyes, and she slaps more happily.

Yang Jingxing smiled at Yu Xinting and looked at the audience: "I think the greatest joy of communication is sharing, I am very happy to be here to share with you the fun I got in the process of learning the piano, please forgive me for not doing well." This is followed by the third movement of Prokofiev's Piano Sonata No. 7 in B major. ”

This work is considered to be the composer's greatest sonata, especially the third movement, which reflects the brutality of war and its effects.

Because the style of this piece is so distinct, the feeling of interpretation will be very different for different players, and even the uninitiating listener can clearly feel it. Of course, the praise and disapproval of various playing styles can be very different. Some people think that the sooner the better, and some people think it is more appropriate to be more steady......

How will Yang Jingxing behave? Everyone cheered up, and they were a little waiting to see.

Many musicians will raise their hands higher when playing this piece, so as to better express the indispensable "percussion sense", and to reflect the rhythm that far exceeds the melody. But if you raise your hand too high, it will affect your speed, and it is difficult to have the best of both worlds.

Yang Jingxing is the same when he plays any song, focused but not crazy, calm but not casual, this song is the same, his hand is not raised high at all.

But many listeners who had not enjoyed it before were now finally brightened and stunned, because they could finally see the real thing.

Yang Jingxing's voice was so powerful and powerful, every time it struck violently like a heavy hammer, it seemed that his fingers only needed a little space to burst out the strength of other people's whole bodies. And his speed was very fast, so fast that everyone felt that the war had broken out so suddenly, so violently, that it shocked people's souls.

The incendiary nature of the force and speed is as fast and violent as the rhythm of the music, and it is decisive and long-lasting, and it is almost suffocating.

Not to mention the so-called emotional musicality, Yang Jingxing's strength and speed are really staggering, and the rhythm wants to be stable and accurate.

Pure show-off skills, Yang Jingxing finished playing in two and a half minutes. But the whole rehearsal room could not come out of the war, and it seemed that their souls and bodies were still numb from the shock wave of the shells, and they could not applaud at all.

The first to applaud was Chen Yu, who seemed to be the only one who didn't need to be so shocked, and the applause was still polite. Other students also responded, and some people were slightly surprised or satisfied, and it seemed that they had not come here in vain. However, the professors and teachers were not so enthusiastic, probably not encouraging the promotion of this kind of showmanship in the conservatory.

Yang Jingxing spoke: "Play this, what I want to share is that everyone has their own advantages. For example, I have a lot of strength. It sounds completely unrelated to the music, but there are times when it comes in handy. If I had a weak strength, I would have played like this......"

Yang Jingxing demonstrated two subsections with his hands without restraint, and boasted: "I think this is also very good." ”

Although Yang Jingxing's theory is almost nonsense for these experts, most people are still happy. Yu Xinting covered her mouth and giggled. Li Yingzhen didn't seem to be dissatisfied because her painstaking arrangement was misinterpreted by Yang Jingxing like this.

Just after the battle, Yang Jingxing made another big gap: "Chopin Nocturne in C minor." ”

Even when playing such an emotionally charged tune, Yang Jingxing did not have an intoxicated expression. On the contrary, the audience began to become intoxicated, probably because Yang Jingxing did not use too many colors to challenge the audience's receptivity, nor did he try to misinterpret Chopin's writing intentions.

When it should be gentle, Yang Jingxing is calm, and when it is time to be resolute and heroic, he shows enough majesty. Each note is delicate and neat, fully expressing the dramatic dynamics of the piece.

They are all polite artists, and everyone gave warm applause. Yang Jingxing has no merit and hard work, and he doesn't charge tickets.

After the applause slowly disappeared, the host stepped forward under the reminder of Li Yingzhen, and said with the emotions of a happy audience: "Very exciting, beyond imagination, I believe that Yang Jingxing's rich performance form has given everyone a lot of inspiration." So that's all for the first stage of the performance, if you have any questions, please ask Yang Jingxing, please ......"

After waiting for a while, no one seemed to have a problem.

The host encouraged: "It's okay, any problem, as long as it's related to music, it's okay to compose." ”

A girl sitting in the back gave up the stool to the people around her, stood up and raised her hand slightly: "Yang Jingxing, playing and composing, which one do you prefer?"

Yang Jingxing said: "For me, this comparison is a bit similar to Guan Gong vs. Qin Qiong. I like them all, but I don't like them all...... I feel like family when I play, and I may not spend that much time now, but it's very important and makes me feel grounded and happy. Writing things by yourself is probably like love, with surprises and passions...... Happy family affection and wonderful love love, both want to have. ”

Yang Jingxing's sincere answer made people laugh, and the girl asked again: "Then which do you think is more important, family affection or love?"

In the midst of laughter, Li Yingzhen was happy.

Yang Jingxing smiled: "If I can't play, I don't think I can write anything, if I have to choose, I'm willing to keep playing." ”

The students and teachers of the piano department applauded Yang Jingxing, and the host tried his best to ensure that he was not cold: "Yang Jingxing said very well, please continue to ask any questions." ”

A boy half stood up: "May I ask Yang Jingxing, how do you integrate your perception of life into your performance or creation?"

Yang Jingxing said: "I am very cheesy, when I play the piano or write songs, I will think about some people I know in my life, some things I have experienced, and I don't know if it is called feeling integration." ”

Another boy followed: "Yang Jingxing, what level do you think your performance has reached? Is it the top in the world today, as some people say? Can you objectively evaluate it yourself?"

This questioner attracted a lot of attention, and Li Yingzhen glanced back.

Yang Jingxing said: "Although I don't think music is an objective thing, and it is impossible and should not be quantitatively compared, I am sure that I am not the top, and I dare not be the top in Puyin. If I have to evaluate, I do have a lot of strength. ”

Everyone is happy, Chen Yu, who was holding Erlang's legs before, put down his legs and laughed.

The questioner didn't laugh and asked, "Then what do you think of what your surroundings say about you?"

Yang Jingxing smiled: "Can you evaluate me first?"

The questioner stopped talking when he saw that he was elsewhere, and the host hurriedly played a round: "Please try to ask some relevant questions, today's opportunity is not easy to come by, thank you." ”

A girl gave face: "Yang Jingxing, what do you think music has given you the most, and what attitude do you use to face music, or play?"

Yang Jingxing said: "Music gives me happiness, I like music. ”

Some people applauded, and Yang Jingxing himself clapped his hands and shamelessly: "This kind of vanity is also counted." ”

In the laughter, another girl admired her face: "Yang Jingxing, they all say that the text is like his person, and the music is the same, is your music the same as your person?"

Yang Jingxing thought for a moment and nodded: "It's all relatively superficial." ”

This is so funny, everyone is simply excited, but Li Yingzhen straightened his face and taught loudly: "Yang Jingxing, be more respectful of other people's problems!"

The room was suddenly quiet, and Yang Jingxing had to be more serious: "I said superficial because I feel that I haven't done enough, I believe that many people are like me, let's work together." ”

Everyone applauded, and Li Yingzhen was a little satisfied.
