Then, Deng Hongmei asked Qin Fangge if he had played Luther's first ballade before.

Qin Fangge shook his head and said that he hadn't practiced, he hadn't even heard the CD, he just knew.

As a romantic pianist and known as the "piano poet", the Polish Luther is surprisingly similar to Chopin in another world, and Qin Fangge even thinks that this is simply another copy of Chopin! Luther is romantic, sad, luxurious, and has a burning patriotic feeling. His piano etudes, nocturnes, and concertos are quite famous, and there are many people who practice them, but his several ballades, quite speaking, are relatively few people who practice them.

For his answer, Deng Hongmei smiled, she was not surprised, no matter how talented a person is, it is impossible for him to practice so many piano repertoire. Moreover, as far as the general level of the piano students of the Huaxia Conservatory of Music is concerned, a such narrative song does not take a month of effort, and it is not necessary to take it down at all. Even for candidates who apply for the piano department, preparing for the exam in advance will only be Luther's etudes and nocturnes, and even concertos are very few, because the orchestra needs to cooperate and it is a thankless repertoire.

Deng Hongmei took out the piano score from her bag, said it was Luther's first ballade, and asked Qin Fangge to try to play it.

Xiao Yuran was quite surprised, it seemed that Deng Hongmei was really prepared, just to investigate Qin Fangge's ability. It's still early, they have only been playing for less than an hour just now, and it has not yet reached eight o'clock, and there is time to test Qin Fangge's ability.

Qin Fangge naturally couldn't say no, he first spent about ten minutes and browsed through the whole article.

Deng Hongmei didn't care whether he remembered it or not, and took this opportunity to talk about the background of Luther's composition of this ballade. It is generally believed that this C-flat major ballade tells the story of "King Arthur". Qin Fangge also knows the story of King Arthur, and there is no difference between these things in the two parallel worlds, he was born ordinary, but he was born with divine power and great ambitions, and he was predicted to have the potential to become a hero, and he can also pull out the "sword in the stone", which feels similar to Emperor Liu Bang cutting the white snake. Attracted by his domineering spirit, the heroes gathered under his tent, and established the famous "Knights of the Round Table", all the way to the battle, experienced twists and turns, but also subdued the Blue Army and its female leader into the harem, and finally, the ginseng winner King Arthur successfully established the Kingdom of Great Britain, created British history, and composed an epic heroic song.

Luther's ballade is also quite emotional, with prophecy, war, blood, love, and the belief in the pursuit of freedom.

Deng Hongmei said that only by understanding his rich feelings in this ballade can he truly understand Luther, he is not only a romantic pianist, but also the patriotic feelings in his chest and his heroic complex are the most profound Luther.

At this time, Qin Fangge could really only concentrate on two things, reading the music while listening to Deng Hongmei explain the background story.

Fortunately, he really has a genius body now, and the strings of notes on the piano score, after he saw it in his eyes, it was as if it had flown into his heart, and he quickly converted the symbols on the staff into specific notes. Among them, what he gained after his accident, in the endless lonely darkness with only music, helped him the most, and so many music in another world greatly enriched his horizons, broadened his thinking, and also gave him a deeper understanding and conversion speed of sight-reading.

Indeed, from what they currently have about Qin Fangge, as well as several of his works. The temperament he shows now is very similar to Luther, romantic, beautiful, a little melancholy, a unique temperament, and the mystery and depth hidden behind.

Deng Hongmei's choice of Luther's ballade was also painstaking.

He didn't have time to understand these Qin songs, and now he was all focused on this Luther's C-flat major ballade.

According to his own understanding, Luther should not be so superficial to praise an Englishman who has nothing to do with him, but should use the past as a metaphor for the present.

He even wondered maliciously whether Luther wanted to use this piece to inspire the Poles to revolt, and that King Arthur's ginseng winner could do it, and they could do it. It shows that there is a strong hero complex in his heart, perhaps, Luther hopes that he himself is this hero.

And Qin Fangge has to admit that in the vast world of music, Luther is indeed such a hero, and he wants to compose an epic hymn to heroes to those people who pursue independence and yearn for freedom.

There is no doubt that Luther was brilliant, that his work was great, and that he himself was great.

Qin Fangge read all the way, and while analyzing the structure of the song, he also understood the emotional color in it.

He also grasped the emotional thread of the whole work, which is the patriotic complex and heroic feelings in Luther's heart.

After he read it, Deng Hongmei asked him if he wanted to watch it for a while, and she didn't believe that he could understand the feelings and thoughts in the work so quickly. In fact, if he could read the technical difficulties thoroughly and play them fluently, she would think that he was the pride of the world.

Regarding Qin Fangge's expectations, Deng Hongmei did not mention the highest level. After all, true genius is really out of reach.

Not to mention that there has never been a pianist in the true sense of the word in China, as far as the current situation in the world is concerned, there has not been a single classical pianist in a hundred years.

Qin Fangge said that he could try to play, and humbly asked Professor Deng to help guide and criticize.

Deng Hongmei saw that his face was calm, not like he was not confident, and thought in his heart that he might be planning to further deepen his understanding of the work in the process of playing, and then gradually improve.

This is a good practice, thinking too much, after all, you have to practice it yourself, and it only counts when you pop it up.

Deng Hongmei also said that she would help him turn over the score, such a thing, where would she dare to work on her, the witty and clever Xiao Yuran hurriedly rushed to say that it would be good to leave this task to her, Deng Hongmei looked at her with a smile and gave her this difficult task.

In fact, Xiao Yuran himself is not sure whether Qin Fangge has memorized the score of this narrative song, with his almost perverted memory, this possibility is quite likely. I think that at the beginning, when she participated in the re-examination, she took the piano score of the ability test, and Qin Fangge didn't write it down after reading it once.

Before Qin Fangge played, he didn't forget to thank her.

Xiao Yuran reciprocated with a bright smile, and on her round face, the two small dimples looked particularly cute. This simple girl has changed from a protagonist to a supporting role, and she looks very happy.

Then, she had to cheer up her spirits, because she had to listen to Qin Fangge's performance while comparing the symbols on the score in order to turn the page in time. This is also quite a test of her basic skills. If she didn't turn the page in time, Qin Fangge played the wrong game, and she would definitely be blamed.

This narrative is in a relatively free sonata form, with five parts: introduction, presentation, expansion, repetition and epilogue. This kind of curved structure is already quite familiar to him.

When Qin Fangge played the introduction, he handled it quite well.

The heavy vicissitudes of breaking up the chords go up, and then there is a small downward flow of lyrical tenderness. The contrast between the before and after phrases echoes each other from afar, as if it suddenly leads people's thinking back to a long time ago, the dark and troubled times, and the era when heroes are expected to make contributions one after another.

There is no big technical difficulty, but the emphasis is on the expression of feelings, saying that Qin Fangge handled it well because he seemed to grasp the overall theme, these two introductions, and the role of prophecy, this narrative song, from the beginning, shows an epic and grand scene.

Followed by the presentation part, the themes deduced by several voices are displayed one by one, and the main voice continues to recall the eventful years, the people are not living, and they call for heroes. The sub-voice hero began to appear, and it was really a very protagonist style, born with divine power, heroic, and importantly, he had great ambitions since he was a child, to save the suffering and save the world from fire and water. In the middle of the main and secondary voices, a connecting voice is also inserted, as if there is an arrangement in the dark, predicting that there will be heroes born out of thin air, saving the world, and setting up an immortal cause.

Seriously, this narrative song is quite technically difficult, but when Qin Fangge's dexterous hands flew on the keys, these difficulties were skillfully resolved one by one. Moreover, his hands are very beautiful, and they are not the typical academic hard style, which is unusually pleasing to the eye.

There have always been a lot of disputes about the hand shape of piano playing, often the public says that the public is reasonable, and the mother says that the mother is reasonable, and no one can persuade anyone.

Although Deng Hongmei is a senior professor at the Conservatory of Music, she is still relatively cheerful, and her requirements for hand shape are not as stubborn as some professors, and they must be academic hand shapes. In her opinion, as long as she can play the true character of the song with time and effort, she doesn't have to be so persistent about the opponent. Of course, it is not enough to look too ugly in the hand, and the player should also pay attention to the image, if the body is twisted into twists, the fingers are bent like chicken feet, and the expression is hideous like a ghost, what is it, and there is no pianist style.

The score of this narrative song is very complicated, Xiao Yuran doesn't talk about sight-reading, if she wants to keep up with the pace of Qin Fangge's performance, she has to play with the spirit of twelve points, the first two pages are fine, but when she reached the third page, she didn't keep up a little, turned the page half a beat slower, and was glared at by Deng Hongmei.

Fortunately, Qin Fangge didn't play the wrong note because of this, and Xiao Yuran deserted in his heart, thinking that he must have memorized all the scores.

But she had a lot of pressure on her shoulders, so she quickly cleaned up her mood and kept up with his rhythm again, don't look at Professor Deng's kind face now, but it is really quite scolding, Xiao Yuran was scolded and cried by her at the beginning, it was really an unbearable memory.

Soon it was time for the display part, the hero began his journey, there were difficulties and obstacles, but more than that, it was a great achievement, drawing a stone and a sword, collecting the "Knights of the Round Table", uniting all the forces that could be united, and the "Blue Army" from misunderstanding to cooperation.

When it comes to the reproduction part, the process continues, and the heroes and heroines also go from misunderstanding to cooperation, and then to the further sublimation of feelings, but the feelings between men and women are still just embellishments.

The final epilogue is a happy ending that everyone likes to see, but Luther's treatment focuses on depicting epic grand scenes, those blood-boiling feats.

The whole ballade, a total of ten minutes, is quite a huge and magnificent repertoire, very singable, with a bit of bard, the bard travels all over the world, reciting heroes everywhere, like an immortal hymn.

Qin Fangge played the song with passion and ambition, but his facial expressions and movements were not exaggerated, giving people the feeling that it was just right, belonging to the kind of surging passion that was more restrained.

It feels like a temperament similar to Luther, at least that's what Deng Hongmei thinks.

Even, she almost thought that Qin Fangge's guy was possessed by Luther's soul.

Because over the years, from learning piano by herself to teaching piano, she has seen countless people who claim to be geniuses. But she had never seen anyone as strange as Qin Fangge, who could play Luther's ballade so smoothly and clearly for the first time. Even, in terms of the grasp of the emotional color of the whole song, he performed it perfectly.

Deng Hongmei feels that this is not a genius at all, Qin Fangge, a genius, must have experienced a lot of things, otherwise, his understanding of this narrative song would not be so profound.

There are also some of his works, which will not be so deep and vicissitudes.

At this time, she had heard what she was talking about as a piano accompanist in the vocal music department, Qin Fangge blew himself up and said that he had a dream in the hospital bed before the exam, and had a short but rich life experience.

As for this, the phenomenon that happened to him can be explained.

Or, Qin Fangge is simply God's spokesperson in the world?

Xiao Yuran didn't have so many emotions, but she thought that she couldn't reach the realm of sight-reading like he was now after practicing for a hundred years, and in addition to practicing diligently, she still had to rely more on her innate talent.

Fortunately, Deng Hongmei didn't scold him, even if she was often in a hurry when she helped him translate the score.

But she didn't feel complacent for long, and Deng Hongmei, who had been brewing, bombarded her, "Xiao Yuran, you still need to practice your solfège training! Not to mention that you can compare with Qin Fangge, you can't even translate the score, like something!"

Deng Hongmei's words were very heavy, Xiao Yuran suddenly drooped his head, and hurriedly claimed that it was.

Qin Fangge didn't dare to explain, and only looked at her with sympathetic eyes.

After Deng Hongmei criticized Xiao Yuran, she shifted her attention to Qin Fangge, and praised him first, "Qin Fangge, you can play to this level for the first time in sight-reading, you are the most talented I have ever seen." ”

She observed Qin Fangge's expression and found that he was still very calm and humble, so she continued with satisfaction, "But don't think that this is enough, the world of music is deep and complex, there are still many things to learn, and it is impossible to be proud and complacent." You didn't do your best in this ballade, and I think you can do it perfectly. ”

Qin Fangge nodded, and did not look for objective reasons, "Professor Deng is right, my piano is just getting started, and I don't have the capital to be proud and complacent. There are still too many deficiencies in this ballade, so please Professor Deng don't hesitate to teach me......"

"It's not that serious, your piano level is already quite good, and you can call me teacher. Deng Hongmei was afraid that it would blow his confidence again.

"It is said that Mr. Deng's piano appreciation level is one of the best in China, and he can also rank in the world, and I am more confident to have such a teacher. Qin Fang's song was sweet, and he patted the horse.

Deng Hongmei couldn't help laughing, "Who did you listen to?" ”

"Listen to what Xiaoyu said!" Qin Fangge also smiled slightly.

The smile on Deng Hongmei's face suddenly retracted, and Xiao Yuran, who was innocently shot, looked dazed, "Ah!"

She said this, but Qin Fangge shouldn't have said it at this time!

Qin Fangge also smiled, "Teacher Deng has a high level, no wonder Xiaoyu's level is also good, I will also study more with her in the future." By the way, should I call her Senior Sister?"

Xiao Yuran was taken aback, his expression was still a little ashamed, his feet had to be stomped up, and his little hands were hurriedly swinging, for fear that Deng Hongmei would agree to him.

Fortunately, Deng Hongmei didn't mess around with him, and she was not afraid of hitting Xiao Yuran, "Her level is still far behind! ”

Qin Fangge still didn't give up, "There is a precedence in getting started!"

Deng Hongmei scolded him with a smile, "The master comes first, and after she goes out in the future, it will be written on her resume that she will be taught by you, and that is the capital of her pride." ”

This time it was Qin Fangge's turn to be honestly afraid!

Xiao Yuran was also relieved, and he was still in the mood to glance at him.

Deng Hongmei didn't waste time, let him continue to play the narrative song just now, she told her own views and opinions, and said that Qin Fangge just listened to it.

Qin Fangge couldn't be so disrespectful to his teacher, and he was busy praising Deng Hongmei, saying that he was still immature and needed the teacher's advice and guidance.

Deng Hongmei was very satisfied with his attitude, Xiao Yuran was in a hurry when she was flipping the score just now, which made her feel a little unreliable, and she wanted to flip the score herself.

Qin Fangge couldn't be modest at this time, and directly reported, "Don't bother Mr. Deng, I have memorized the score of this ballade." ”

"You memorized it so quickly!" Deng Hongmei was surprised, this is only a little more time!

Like Zhou Jia and Su Yunfei, the top young pianists in China, if they want to memorize such a score, they won't be able to get it without a few days of hard work.

Qin Fangge, this guy is very powerful, he took it down in such a short time.

At this time, Deng Hongmei didn't think about whether Qin Fangge had read the score before, or practiced this song, because she knew that Qin Fangge didn't need to lie about such a thing.

If he lies, he will be exposed if he wants to play other scores in the future, and he is a smart man who would not do such a stupid thing.
