Chapter 65: It's Him
The Revolutionary Etude in C minor is a reference piece for many art candidates today, and it is also one of the most common performance pieces in many concerts, and is loved by pianists all over the world.
It is a single piece of music, with anger, agitation, and grief running through the whole piece.
All the musical images are probably formed by the combination of the rushing sound flow of the left hand and the resolute melody of the right hand, but halfway through the song, the piano tone turns sharply upward, and in the sudden fluctuating accompaniment, it seems that someone is shouting, pouring out the pain in his heart to the world.
This piece is one of the most iconic works of Chopin's career, and it requires a high degree of coordination between the left and right hands, and it is difficult for the average amateur Grade 10 player to make mistakes even after a long period of practice.
But Yu Chengjiao is a well-known piano master in China, he has practiced "Revolutionary Etudes" since he was a child, and in the rating of some candidates, he has also played this song many times, which is well known to the teachers and students of the school, and can be said to be one of Yu Chengjiao's best piano pieces.
Listening to the rhythm of this etude, Gao Feiliu waved his fingers excitedly, and his face was eager to try.
Obviously, I really wanted to sit in front of that piano and play and show my style.
But when he saw Liao Yuan with an admiring face, he suddenly said: "With Professor Yu Zhuyu in front, the next person to come to the stage must be under a lot of pressure, are you afraid?"
"It doesn't matter if you're afraid or not. ”
Liao Yuan smiled slightly: "However, I don't think it's a shame to lose to a professor." ”
When Zhang Chao heard this, he hurriedly said, "Mr. Liao, then don't go up first, and then wait." ”
Zhang Chao naturally supported Liao Yuan, he brought Liao Yuan with the intention of making Liao Yuan an instant hit at this exchange meeting, and "Out of the Western Regions" obviously has this potential, he doesn't want Liao Yuan's light to go out before it is revealed.
At this time, after Yu Chengjiao finished the song, he stood up, put his left hand behind his waist, and swung his right hand from his left chest to the lower right, bowing.
The audience applauded continuously, and people exclaimed: "Professor Yu's control of this piece has become more and more perfect." ”
"Professor Yu has mastered all of Chopin's etudes superbly, and he can be regarded as the pianist with the highest level of performance of Chopin's etudes in China. ”
"It is worthy of Lin Weiyin's teacher, this pair of teachers and students is really a typical example of being better than blue. ”
"Who's next?, Xiao Feiliu has gone up!"
"Wow, Feiliu is really a boyfriend, after Professor Yu's performance, he came on the stage without any pressure, he is only thirteen years old, right?"
"Young and ignorant, no, no, no one should look good, don't underestimate his skills because of his age, he is also one of the few little pianists who can play Chopin's twenty-seven hand etudes without a single note. ”
"Hey, why did you add small print?"
Zhang Chao, Liao Yuan and others didn't expect Xiao Feiliu to suddenly come to the stage, and after being a little stunned, they all applauded.
Gao Feiliu stood in front of the piano, put one hand in front of the piano, bowed to everyone, and then sat up, showing an excited look.
He was the kind of person who became more interested in playing the more people in the audience, and after moving the joints of his hands a little, he played the first white key under the gaze of everyone.
Soon, his left hand was as fast as Yu Chengjiao's, so fast that he couldn't see his fingers.
The 3rd, 4th, and 5th fingers of the right hand are also extremely flexible, and from time to time they go over the mountains and mountains on the black and white keys, left, right, left, left, and left, and continue to play multiple broken chords.
The sound of the piano flickered far and near, making people feel like they were in a dream.
"'Calm Andante and Brilliant Grand Polonaise'?"
Someone at the scene exclaimed.
People's eyes looking at Gao Feiliu became extremely hot, and even Yu Chengjiao, who had just left his seat, turned his head with a surprised face.
In the crowd, pianist Meng Han listened carefully to the tone of the tune.
He looked at Gao Feiliu's gaze, which became deep and distant, and only after a while did he shake his head and say, "It's very good, but in terms of rhythm and explosiveness, it's still a little worse." ”
Meng Han was very impressed by this "Calm Andante and Brilliant Grand Polonaise", which is one of the most difficult pieces even among all Chopin's works, and more importantly, it is also the award-winning work of Lin Weiyin at the Chopin International Piano Competition.
It is not easy for people to play this song completely, and there are very few people who can achieve mastery and mastery.
The Andante section of the prelude is quite simple, but the further it goes, the more difficult it becomes, making it desirable to give birth to eight hands to play, and has been praised by many art students as one of the most perverted piano pieces in history.
Gao Feiliu's ability to play this piece without a bad note has already shown that his strength stands at the top of the domestic piano world, but it is obviously a little immature to compete with masters from all over the world in international competitions.
But even so, Meng Han and Gao Feiliu did not dare to underestimate it, because even he could not express the perfect mood of "The Brilliant Grand Polonaise", otherwise, he would have won the first prize in the Chopin Piano Competition that year.
Liao Yuan listened to the sound of the piano played by Gao Feiliu, and he was also amazed.
The first five minutes of the line are simple, but later on, the predecessor usually ends with a misplay.
Therefore, seeing that the young Gao Feiliu was able to play this piece completely, Liao Yuan's impression of Gao Feiliu was much better.
When the song ended, the audience erupted in thunderous applause.
Gao Fei stood up and gave a gentlemanly salute, and then shouted, "Brother Yuan, it's your turn!"
Everyone followed Gao Feiliu's line of sight, and turned their heads in unison, looking for the so-called Yuan Brother.
Seeing this, Zhang Fatzi immediately moved out of the way, and pointed at Liao Yuan with both hands at the same time: "It's him, it's him!"
Liao Yuan: "......"
Gao Feiliu said loudly at this time: "Do you know "Out of the Western Regions"?"
Most of the people at the scene were at a loss, and only a few people showed a sudden look, looking at Liao Yuan's eyes, they were also full of interest.
"Yes, he is the author of "Out of the Western Regions", this piece has not yet been published, but I have been fortunate enough to listen to some of it, I like a few chord jumps in this piece very much, magnificent and majestic, with the tension that shocks the gods! The whole work is mixed with the double rhythm of popular and classical, and the mood is particularly full! We spent a lot of effort to invite Brother Yuan to be there, everyone has a good day today!!"
After Gao Feiliu finished speaking, he immediately applauded happily.
Xiao Feiliu obviously greatly admires original creators, and he admires Liao Yuan very much for being able to create a master-level epic work like "Out of the Western Regions"!
At the critical moment, Liao Yuan was not hesitant, and the promised things were naturally to be done, so in the enthusiastic applause of everyone, he also walked to the piano seat unhurriedly and slowly sat down.
