Chapter 236: Temporary Skill Itching (1/4)
Jian Yifan is a visiting professor specially hired by the Piano Department of the School of Music of Jiangcheng Communication University in the past two years.
But when it comes to business, Jian Yifan is actually a well-known pianist.
Most of the time he performs abroad, but sometimes when he returns to China to rest for a month or two, he will take a little time to come to Jiangchuan to give a few lessons to the students.
No, time is precious, even on weekends, Jiang Chuan also arranged two classes for him.
Jian Yifan's lessons to students are mainly instructive, he will let students play, and then point out their shortcomings and give suggestions for improvement, and of course, he will also exchange some interesting stories, experiences, and experiences of performing abroad with students.
Overall, his courses are very popular with students, and Jian Yifan also likes to communicate with young piano students.
After class today, Jian Yifan was about to go home, but he didn't expect to be blocked by the sudden heavy rain, so he could only temporarily live in the guest house provided by the school, and the school also helped change the plane. But Jian Yifan didn't like the closed and narrow space of the guest house, so after asking the students, he came to the coffee shop at the back door and had a cup of coffee to pass the time.
But he didn't expect to see a Theodore grand piano in this humble coffee shop!
Of course, it's not that Theodore grand pianos are rare, there are two big guys in the piano classroom of the Jiangchuan Conservatory of Music, and there is a performance-level Theodore grand piano in the art hall of the music hall.
But the problem is that such a small coffee shop actually has a grand piano, and it is generally only used for professional occasions!
When Jian Yifan saw it, his heart was a little messy. That's why he couldn't help but take a closer look, make sure he didn't read the wrong brand, and observe the surrounding environment.
People who like the piano are reluctant to let the pearl be dusty.
Fortunately, after he looked around the layout of the coffee shop, Jian Yifan could barely resist the strange fire of asking the owner of the coffee shop to come out and scold.
With good sound quality and record shelves on display everywhere, it seems that the owner of this store is a person who likes music, and he is not buying a piano to come back and be elegant.
At this time, Ding Xiang finished brewing coffee, she looked up, and hurriedly shouted, "Sir, I'm sorry, please don't mess with the piano in the store." ”
Yang Yi didn't have this rule, but once Ding Xiang's roommates came over to watch Ding Xiang and see her working environment, the richest roommate in the family said something about this piano, which made Ding Xiang worry about it.
Now seeing that the other party opened the lid of the piano, Ding Xiang panicked, afraid that the other party would damage Yang Yi's piano.
Jian Yifan's hands were really itchy, and he opened the lid to press it, and the excuse he gave himself was to try the tone to see if this Theodore grand piano was just a shell - although he didn't doubt it.
Now that Ding Xiang said it, Jian Yifan, who was in her fifties, was a little panicked, feeling that she had done something like a chicken and a dog thief, and was very embarrassed, so she quickly explained: "I'm sorry, I just want to see your piano." ”
"It's okay to see, but don't touch it!" Ding Xiang said worriedly while taking into account the feelings of the guests, "What if it is broken?"
"No, how can it be broken?" Jian Yifan was amused by Ding Xiang's words, but he was not so embarrassed, and introduced himself, "I am the teacher of the piano department of the Conservatory of Music of Jiangcheng Communication University, teaching piano, and it is not the first time I have seen a piano, how can it be broken when I touch it?"
When Ding Xiang heard that the other party was still a teacher, he was embarrassed and quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, teacher, I don't know, please forgive me." ”
"Why, you are also dutiful. Jian Yifan smiled, "Actually, I also saw such a good piano placed here, and it was itchy for a while." But since it affects your work, forget it!"
"Thank you for your understanding!" Ding Xiang said gratefully.
"Well, since you're a piano teacher, it's okay to use the piano. Yang Yi finally opened the golden mouth at this time, he originally wanted to keep a low profile, but looking at Ding Xiang, a silly girl, he still had no choice but to speak out to solve the siege.
"Are you?" Jian Yifan looked at Yang Yi, who was still sitting there, at first he thought that Yang Yi was a guest in a coffee shop, or a boy who came to pursue a girl (Ding Xiang).
"This is my boss. Ding Xiang hurriedly introduced.
Yang Yi smiled and said: "I bought the piano back, it was not just an ornament, I usually play it myself, if there is a guest who wants to show off his hand, he is also welcome to try, of course, you have to have confidence in your skills, after all, I don't want our guests to hear a noise." ”
This was said to Jian Yifan, but Yang Yi actually wanted to say it to Ding Xiang, this girl seems to have misunderstood something, no wonder she usually looks at the piano and has a lot of worries in her heart, it is completely unnecessary!
"Haha, if that's the case, you can rest assured, I'm a pianist who has been to Vienna to perform. Jian Yifan said as he looked at Yang Yi with interest, and secretly said in his heart that people should not be good-looking, such a burly person is also a music lover.
Looking at the layout of the store, as well as Theodore's placement and maintenance, Jian Yifan's impression of Yang Yi has improved a lot.
"Simple is complex. Yang Yi read the other party's name lightly, he was not impressed, smiled and waved his right hand, "Teacher Jian, please!"
"Then I'll be ugly!" Jian Yifan was not polite, and sat down by the piano generously.
Although it is not top-notch, it is still a very good piano, Jian Yifan gently stroked the black and white keys, and the meaning of love has been revealed on his face.
The movement here finally attracted Xixi's attention, and the little girl jumped off the sofa and ran to her father's side, like a small raindrop beating outside the window.
"Baba, who is this old man?" Xixi asked in a nasal voice, snuggling up in her father's arms.
It's good that Jian Yifan didn't hear it, otherwise he would definitely dye his hair black......
"A teacher, who teaches piano. Yang Yi whispered to his daughter.
Over there, Jian Yifan finally stopped his reverent touching, and then tried to play a short melody.
He listened with his eyes closed, as if judging the pitch of the piano.
Naturally, there is no problem with this, Yang Yi can debug it himself, and he usually maintains it very well, after all, Murphy wants to play the piano every time he comes!
Jian Yifan showed a satisfied expression, and then began his performance.
Raising his hand, bending his fingers, and pressing, from the moment Jian Yifan played the first note, Yang Yi saw that the other party was extraordinary. Even he, who claims to be proficient in piano playing, can't help but have a shocking glint in his eyes.
Yang Yi's proficiency may only be the middle level of professional piano students, while Jian Yifan has directly crossed a big gap and reached the height of professional performers like Lang Lang and Li Yundi in his previous life!
The technique was thrown aside, and the sound of the piano was already sounding like the tinkling of spring water.
Yang Yi stopped whispering to his daughter and listened carefully.
Jian Yifan may also be happy to see the hunt, in this small coffee shop, on a whim, started a small performance, and he slowly played a movement - the world-famous "Desert Camel Herd". (Note 1)
