In the morning, Zhou Xiuying also had very high requirements for Qin Fangge, but fortunately, Qin Fangge could handle it, and when Fang Xiping called for lunch, he could also go to eat smoothly without worrying about being dragged to practice or something.

Perhaps stimulated by Qin Fangge's creation of "Don Juan", Fang Xiping also accelerated the progress in the creation of the Three Kingdoms opera. However, the speed is still completely incomparable to Qin Fangge, and according to his own fastest estimate, it will take three months to complete the script.

Zhou Xiuying is also very satisfied with this speed, after all, he can't expect everyone to be like Qin Fangge, and that doesn't show his genius

。

After Qin Fangge, a foodie, had a hearty lunch, he sat down in front of the piano again, ready to use the sound of the piano to repay Fang Xiping's busy hard work in the kitchen. It seems that Fang Xiping himself likes this kind of work, and cooking food for the people closest to him is also a happy thing in life.

And when Qin Fangge sat down to play the piano, Zhou Xiuying and Fang Xiping also sat on the sofa to rest, there was snow outside, but it was warm as spring indoors.

He first played a more soothing tune by Luther, romantic, beautiful, and rare without any melancholy.

Then, after a short break, Qin Fangge started a new performance.

He had barely played a few notes, and the expressions of the two on the sofa immediately became particularly exciting.

Zhou Xiuying and Fang Xiping looked at each other, and then looked at Qin Fangge at the same time, but unfortunately they didn't get a positive response from Qin Fangge, he was concentrating on playing the piano.

As the music progressed, the melody kept coming into the ears, and the musical phrases also made the two of them sure that Qin Fangge would indeed move the real thing.

He played the music of his recently completed opera, Don Giovanni, and played it on the piano.

Since Zhou Xiuying got the completed opera score and script, most of her energy has been spent on this opera during this time, that is, Deng Hongmei and her sisters proposed to let Qin Fangge perform in the opera at a concert, so that she could start planning again.

Her familiarity with this opera is also obvious, Fang Xiping is by her side to assist her, and she is also ready to learn some of Qin Fangge's thoughts and style when creating the opera.

Needless to say, the classical music attainments of the two are also world-class, even if they don't have to listen with their ears, they can see some clues just from Qin Fangge's concentrated performance.

As Qin Fangge's performance progressed, they also confirmed more and more that Qin Fangge was adapting the music of the opera into this piano piece.

It's not an easy task!

This is true from every point of view.

It's not just inspiration and ideas, it's about unparalleled control over music.

Even if an ordinary composer can adapt it, it is even more difficult to perform it.

However, this was not too much of a problem for Qin Fangge.

His piano performance seems to have reached the pinnacle, and it is not uncommon to play a symphony orchestra with a piano.

And what makes Zhou Xiuying and Fang Xiping feel incredible is that every note in the opera "Don Juan" is in this piano piece.

In the past, this similar piano repertoire was called opera fantasy

。

This kind of music has the dramatic conflict of opera, but it is not as long as opera, and the passion that erupts in a short period of time is also incomparable when the audience feels it.

Zhou Xiuying and Fang Xiping, who are familiar with this opera, involuntarily followed the rhythm of the music, as if they had revisited the plot of the entire "Don Juan".

However, the pace of the plot has been accelerated too much this time, but fortunately, they have high musical literacy and can keep up with the rhythm when listening.

Qin Fangge's piano performance is very infectious, and from the time he officially played in front of everyone, almost everyone who heard him play had to admit it.

When playing the music adapted from such an opera, the super appeal, coupled with the already particularly dramatic rhythm, made the two listeners simply want to stop.

The fifteen-minute performance is like taking them to experience the dramatic life of Don Juan in its entirety.

Zhou Xiuying and Fang Xiping also showed super high quality, and gave him warm applause after Qin Fangge's performance.

Fang Xiping also smiled and said, "It's enough to have such a piano piece today! Xiuying should also be very happy, I think this kind of piano music can meet the audience in advance." ”

Zhou Xiuying also smiled, "This is a completely unexpected surprise, if it weren't for our good psychological quality, we would really be scared to death by you." ”

Qin Fangge hurriedly apologized and said that he should have told them in advance.

Zhou Xiuying did not dwell on this, but asked him more details about this piano piece, such as whether anyone else had heard it.

Qin Fangge pushed the boat down the river and said, "Not long after the creation was made, I just wanted to ask Mr. Zhou and Teacher Fang to listen to it first and help guide the axe to correct it." ”

Zhou Xiuying and the others were more modest, and even said, "We can't help much in this, only you can put so much music in such a short piece of piano music." ”

"There are very few people who can play!" Fang Xiping said with certainty, "I don't know if it's because I'm old and dizzy or what, when I watch you play, I feel like there are afterimages." ”

Zhou Xiuying also testified that when Qin Fangge played to the Gao Yu Dynasty, the speed of his fingers was indeed not as fast as a person, and it would definitely be like a convulsion when changing to others, but when Qin Fangge played in front of the piano, his posture was very elegant and calm, even if it was such an inhuman speed, it was also very beautiful.

This kind of speed is by no means possible for ordinary piano learners.

More importantly, when playing at such a high speed, it is necessary to maintain the granularity and fluency of the music, not to mention the various conflicts, developments, and exciting scenes of the drama like Qin Fangge.

It is no exaggeration to say that now such a song can be performed by Qin Fangge alone.

It is also thanks to his unique talent, perverted body control, and his identity as a composer that he knows Don Juan's opera well. When playing the piano, it is also clear what to do when and what kind of emotions and emotions to express

。

"Did you give this drama fantasia a name?" Zhou Xiuying finally asked Qin Fangge.

Qin Fangge replied, "I want to call him "Don Juan's Memories", I don't know what you think, Mr. Zhou?"

Zhou Xiuying and Fang Xiping said right away, and Fang Xiping also said with a smile, "The whole opera, as well as Don Juan's life, are condensed in this piano music of about a quarter of an hour, which can indeed be called a memory of Don Juan." This feeling is even more pronounced when we viewers listen to it. ”

Zhou Xiuying didn't have any opinion on this, and asked Qin Fangge if she could play it again.

Qin Fangge could say no, Zhou Xiuying was prepared this time, and brought a DV video. He is now immune to the camera, when teaching Xiao Yuran and Wu Hongqin, they used voice recorders at first, and then they simply used DV recordings. It's just that Deng Hongmei strictly controlled them and asked them not to spread the word, Xiao Yuran also jokingly said that they should keep it well, and they would become heirlooms or something in the future.

When practicing the violin, Long Xueyao, who is not bad for money, also uses DV to video, and then slowly reminisce afterwards. Professor Wen Ruzhi also supported her in doing this, and then said that similar to Deng Hongmei, not only Long Xueyao, but also he, a violin professor, was greatly inspired many times.

Zuo Shuqin and their side are the same, DV plays a greater role in their rehearsals, and everyone in a team like theirs is very important and must cooperate well. Once one person makes a mistake, it can easily cause a chain reaction. Qin Fangge often acts as a photographer, not only shooting the sound of their performances, but also often shooting their expressions.

Everyone loves beauty, and this group of young and beautiful girls is no exception, everyone wants to be beautiful in the camera. Even Xie Xiaojuan and Qian Shuyuan, who are usually the most disdainful, are no exception, if they don't shoot well, they have to blame Qin Fangge.

As for Qin Fangge's own performance in front of the camera, Huang Jing praised him for being fantastic, while Chen Tianhong criticized him for pretending to be forced and always very cool. However, with Qin Fangge's character, it is unrealistic for him to jump too out.

This is especially true in front of a respected old man like Mr. Zhou.

Fortunately, Zhou Xiuying just turned on the DV and put it there to record it, and she didn't walk around with the DV to shoot. They also have to focus on the piano music itself, so they don't have time to toss around the mess.

Fang Xiping even took all the scores of the opera Don Juan, ready to listen to it while reading it.

With sufficient preparation in thought and action, Zhou Xiuying and Fang Xiping, the two elderly audiences, also showed super high musical quality.

Qin Fangge didn't have to think so much, he just needed to concentrate on playing his music.

The beating notes were clearly distinct, even vivid in his mind.

On this song "Don Juan's Memories", Qin Fangge naturally made modifications.

Even the opera "Don Juan" itself, Qin Fangge has made a great adaptation to make it more suitable for modern aesthetics. However, the tragicomic style of Mozart's original work, he still made the most complete reservation, which is also the best part of his opinion.

Mozart himself, not only Qin Fangge has studied a lot, but other musicians also have a particularly in-depth understanding of him, and it is these in-depth understandings that make people feel his greatness

。 Ordinary music fans, in addition to his music and historical materials, can also watch the film "Mozart's Biography" about Mozart's legendary life to have a deeper understanding of him. Mozart's genius is indeed rare in the world, and it also attracted jealousy and framing for him, and finally died young, which is also sad and lamentable!

The original song of "Don Juan's Memories" was adapted by the great pianist musician Liszt, a pianist who developed his piano skills to the pinnacle, and composed and adapted countless classic music works in his lifetime. "Memories of Don Juan" is one of the classics, and the difficulty is world-class, and it is particularly difficult to perform the entire music of the original two-and-a-half-hour opera in a quarter of an hour. Not to mention, there are many technical difficulties involved.

It has been concluded that in order to play this piece perfectly, the player needs to quickly leap into almost the entire keyboard of the piano with both hands in a very short time, with a large section of the minor third chromatic march of the right hand and the left hand to accompany the notes.

There are more than 20 techniques in the performance of this piece, which is difficult for non-performer-level people to do.

These playing techniques are: 1: Right Hand Large-Span Arpeggios 2: Octave Marching 3: Octave Chromatic Marching 4: Chromatic Scale 5: Minor Thirds 6: Right Hand Minor Thirds Semitone Marching 7: Reverse Chromatic Scale 8: Polyphony 9: Tenths Melody 10: Alternating Scales 11: Reverse Scales 12: 4 Pairs 613: Large-Span Jumps 14: Tremolo 15: Minor Fourths Chromatic Scale 16: Ripple Polyphony 17: Co-Directional Thirds. 6th scale 18: 3rd in the same direction. Sixth chromatic scale 19: alternating octave semitone 20: octave plus third melody (hardest) 21: long scale run 22: jumping octave.

On this basis, Qin Fangge also added a lot of difficulty, because he always felt that if it wasn't as difficult as the original song, he wouldn't be able to get over it himself.

In addition, his adaptation of the opera Don Juan to make it more perfect, also objectively, adds additional difficulty to this piano piece.

With such a difficult tune, even Qin Fangge himself did not dare to take it lightly, and he had to go all out.

And this is also in line with his consistent temperament, as long as he sits in front of the piano and plays, his heart is only left with the purest music, and he doesn't have to think about all the mess. Only with such dedication can his performance be expressive and infectious.

This is especially important for Zhou Xiuying and Fang Xiping, who know Don Juan's plot.

The perfect music performed by Qin Fangge also fascinated them.

Although there are no new expectations for the plot, they know the plot very well, but it is this understanding that makes them feel more and more incredible when they feel the surging power of music.

When Zhou Xiuying was teaching students, even when she was lecturing with Qin Fangge, and when she was discussing with Fang Xiping, she always emphasized that music is the soul of an opera. The plot and others are at most like the human body, a necessary component, but the most important thing is the soul.

A body without a soul can only be a walking corpse. And the opera without a soul is more like a puppet show, and I can't see where the meaning is.

Qin Fangge understood these very well.

This arrangement of the piano piece is the best proof of this

。

He didn't use a word, nor did he have any superfluous stage performances, relying only on music. It is these notes one after another, which form a gorgeous, wonderful, full of contradictions and conflicts, through the contrast between before and after, the light and shade changes of the music, and the subtle characteristics of various voices in the high, medium and low, to deduce an opera-like magnificent chapter.

When Qin Fangge finished playing again, he himself seemed to have experienced a life of ups and downs, and the various swaggering and deceitful encounters of the playboy Don Juan made people hate, and made people feel sympathy, and the tragicomedy color was also revealed.

The performance of this piece was very difficult, and after two times, Qin Fangge began to sweat out.

"I feel that no amount of praise is a bit powerless for this piece. Qin Fangge, are you planning to play it at your concert?" Fang Xiping also commented again, he did not shy away from Qin Fangge's concert, and Zhou Xiuying made this clear to him when she asked her to practice the opera "Alonso". Qin Fangge will not blame Zhou Xiuying and them, after all, it is all for his good, and there is nothing in return, if he wants to make trouble again, it will be a problem that he will not be a man.

Qin Fangge said that he hadn't thought about it yet, "I also want to ask Mr. Zhou, what do you mean? Will it affect the opera? After all, all the music of the opera is here, maybe the audience in the future will have less expectations for the opera." ”

Zhou Xiuying said with a smile, "Don't worry about this! This kind of music can only be understood thoroughly by those of us who are particularly familiar with Don Juan's opera." It is almost impossible for ordinary people to guess the rhythm of an opera through music. I'm in favor of promoting it early, so that everyone can have an impression first. Piano music is the easiest to play by you. The rehearsal of the opera takes a long time, and if you really have to wait for the performance, you don't know how long you have to wait, and it will take half a year at the earliest. If you want to play this piece in a concert, of course, it's the best. ”

Fang Xiping expressed his strong approval, and also said that such a musical work, even if it is taken out alone, can be passed on forever.

As for the rehearsal of the opera "Don Juan", Fang Xiping also suggested that it would be best for Qin Fangge to play the role of Don Juan. There are really no other opera singers in China who want to meet the requirements, and foreign opera singers are more troublesome.

Then, Fang Xiping also asked Qin Fangge not to worry about other problems, Don Juan's opera also needs a lot of other opera singers, and if he can't be the protagonist, it is quite good to be an excellent supporting role. He even said unceremoniously that if he really forced himself to be the protagonist, I am afraid the audience would not buy it.

Zhou Xiuying thanked his wife with her eyes, and also told Qin Fangge about the benefits of his appearance, and told him not to worry, they would naturally solve other things. She even relaxed the conditions, he didn't need to train with the symphony orchestra and other opera singers all the time, and when it was time to perform, he could just make a surprise.

Zhou Xiuying also said that these were all discussed with his mother, Ning Xiupei, who was also the enlightener and helmsman of his music path, and Ning Xiupei, the mother, also valued Qin Fangge's music works the most.

When these elders around Qin Fangge were united, it would be useless for him to struggle no matter how much he tried to struggle. At the same time, Qin Fangge himself can think about it, as long as it doesn't affect his original plan, living in this world, he always has to make some compromises, if it is too ideal, the ending will only be as tragic as other geniuses.
