Chapter 784: Moonlight Song
Sitting next to Xiao Yuran, the senior sister of the piano department also asked her if she knew what Qin Fangge's opening sonata was. Copy URL access
Xiao Yuran shook his head and said it was not clear, but the people obviously didn't believe it, "Xiaoyu, you have such a good relationship with him, can you still be unclear?"
She seriously said she didn't know, "because he said he was going to surprise us! ”
Now they believed it, and asked if they had revealed what the encore song was, which was basically not written on the program list. Xiao Yuran didn't even know whether he wanted to return to the scene, and this had to be determined by the feedback effect on the scene at the time. She also said, "The concert is relatively long, and he has too many choices, not necessarily the pieces he has played before, maybe it will bring us bigger surprises, but I am looking forward to it." ”
Several senior sisters laughed and said that they were looking forward to it, not to mention liking the new and hating the old, there are new music works, which will always make people feel fresh.
Soon, the host Huang Xiaojia appeared, she wore a black dress, which perfectly highlighted her slender figure, and her pretty face was also very delicate. She is the full-time host of the Grand Theater, Zhou Xiuying and Deng Hongmei didn't think about finding another person, and if they want to cooperate with the National Center for the Performing Arts, they have to show sincerity. Moreover, in their opinion, the role of this host is actually not too big, and it is really not necessary to invite a concert host to come.
Huang Xiaojia has rich experience in hosting, and she will not have stage fright, after she appeared on the stage, the concert hall suddenly quieted down. She first briefly welcomed the audience from all over the world, and then briefly introduced Qin Fangge's brilliant deeds. In fact, he didn't really win many honors, and he was not willing to go out to participate in any competitions, and he was not even interested in composition competitions.
Tonight's concert is the best stage for Qin Fangge to prove his strength.
Soon, Huang Xiaojia announced that the first concert of Qin Fangge tonight had officially begun, and asked everyone to invite the protagonist Qin Fangge tonight with applause.
The concert hall burst into applause. Qin Fangge also appeared in this burst of applause.
Originally, Deng Hongmei and Ning Xiupei wanted Qin Fangge to put on makeup or something, but he resolutely refused, saying that he didn't need to engage in these tricks because he was born beautiful, and the people backstage in the concert hall were all amused by him at that time. If he is not happy, others cannot force him. Lin Baoqing is even more naturally beautiful, and she usually likes to face the sky, and her parents also choose to respect her opinions.
After the lights are on. Qin Fangge, who entered the venue, felt more energetic than usual, and still had a standard smile on his face. It makes people feel like a spring breeze.
The applause in the concert hall did not last long, and as soon as he sat down at the piano, he automatically stopped. The host Huang Xiaojia has already spoken for him, so he doesn't need to talk nonsense, and after sitting for about ten seconds, he will start playing tonight.
His playing is soothing and gentle, but with a hint of sadness and gloom. But what he played, the tone of the whole piece. But it's beautiful. Just like moonlight, it is transparent and sensitive, bright and delicate, with a man's unique romance. This is the same as Qin Fangge's consistent meaning, because in his opinion, playing Beethoven's works is a kind of man's romance.
This sonata in C sharp minor. Certainly not his own original. Rather, it is the fourteenth of Le Beethoven's most famous thirty-two piano sonatas, written, "Pan SnaaN." 14Op。 27。 21801 in C minor".
By the way, the work of recording time for Qin Fangge's own piano music was jointly done by several people around him. Ning Xiupei, Deng Hongmei. Xiao Yuran, even Chen Yushan paid attention to it and wrote it down carefully. In the future, he will also be able to number his musical works.
Beethoven's 32 piano sonatas, known as the "New Testament", can be seen in their high status. The "Old Testament" is Bach's "Collection of Equal-Tempered Piano Pieces", which has also been taken out by Qin Fangge before. On tonight's program, there are also works, preludes and fugues.
This piece is best known, and it has a particularly beautiful name, "Moonlight Song". Once in the Chinese textbook, there is a story about this piece, saying that the moonlight song is Beethoven met a blind girl playing his piece under the moonlight, he was very moved, and then composed this sonata.
This is not the case, but it also shows how much people love this work.
Beethoven himself was not particularly satisfied with this work, but as I said before, after a musical work is created, it has its own life and will not be transferred by the will of the author.
There are many theories about the origin of this song, and countless papers have been published for this research. There are also a lot of versions for various musicians and performers. The reason why this sonata is called "Moonlight Song" is due to the German poet Ludwig. Lerstab likens the first movement to "like a boat bobbing on the moonlit surface of Lake Lucerne in Switzerland".
It is generally believed that Beethoven composed it in 1801 in memory of his lover, the piano student who was fourteen years younger than him, the lovely Julietta, who was in love but could not be together. It also hit him a lot, and Beethoven was worried that he would become deaf because of his ear disease at that time, so there were also a lot of sadness, sadness and other emotions in the sonata.
But compared with his other famous piano sonata "Pathétique", which is also played by everyone, this moonlight song is undoubtedly much more beautiful, and the mood is not so intense. This is also the main reason why Qin Fangge did not choose "pathos", but came up with this moonlight song.
Here, he certainly can't tell the story of the original Beethoven.
When he plays, he also interprets according to his own understanding of St. Beethoven.
It is said that "if you are a man, you will play Beethoven", but it is really not easy to interpret Beethoven's works well. In his piano sonatas, the others are better to say, and they can find out the way somewhat, and the thirty-second piano sonata, many great pianists have no idea where to start.
Qin Fangge has had a unique experience, and he can challenge it, but he is not in a hurry, he still has time to slowly experience the various states of life.
This sonata in C sharp minor is also the touchstone of Beethoven's musical compositions. In fact, he also took out a piano piece like Beethoven's "To Alice" before. But that, strictly speaking, does not represent Beethoven's true level. The most extreme Ninth Symphony can be called the swan song of the world.
Sonatas are generally divided into three movements, and this sonata is no exception.
The first movement is a sustained Adagio in 2/2 beat sharp minor, in trilogy form.
In this evening's audience, the world is gathered today. A connoisseur of classical music at the top. Everyone's piano performance level is uneven, but in the appreciation of music. Everyone doesn't think they're going to be much worse than others.
But this is also about talent, there are powerful, when Qin Fangge is playing, he can analyze the structure without going through the score. And if you have average talent, you can know what you want to express very clearly, and it feels very powerful.
This first movement consists of five parts: the introduction, the theme, the middle part, the reproduction of the theme, and the epilogue.
As for the audience's feelings, it is a matter of opinion. The wise man has seen his wisdom.
The structure of the piece remains the same, with the introduction being measures 1-5, on which a faint sound of successive triplets emerges on the tone of the descending octave-supported bass, and the 5th measure ends with a complete termination.
At the beginning, some people heard meditation and tenderness, while others felt the gloom and melancholy hidden in tenderness.
The tonality of the theme of 6-major introduces the viewer to a longing for light, but this longing is short-lived, and then the key shifts to a minor key until measure 15 is completely terminated in a parallel major minor (B minor). The main rhythm of the long beat in the theme contrasts sharply with the tight triplet rhythm, placing the excited inner psychology expressed against the background of the endless triplet accompaniment pattern, as if someone from a distant other side is pouring out his tenderness to you. The mood seems to be somewhat sad and hopeless.
It seemed to come from a distance, a long distance, and it felt like a quiet voice that suddenly rose from the depths of the soul, as if it was full of infinite sorrow and melancholy, and it was like a flood of memories, with a little dark omen......
The middle section, measures 16-42, is a development of the theme music material. The music is given a new colour through tonal shifts and brief dissonances, and the theme is repeated in measures 43-51, which is a repetition and affirmation of the theme, ending with a complete termination.
The epilogue is in measures 52-69, from which you can also see the high level of the composer. Because there are three important elements of writing running through the whole movement: the coherent pattern of the triplets of the broken chords, the bass octave progression, and the chant-like chord progression, which together create an ethereal, hazy, quiet, and melancholy atmosphere.
These analyses are basically only done by musicians with the most talented personalities at the first time.
The general audience feels more about the emotions expressed by Qin Fangge through the performance of the musical phrases. is a little restrained, and he does not express all his emotions clearly for everyone to understand, which is also a factor in the charm of music. In the ears of different audiences, there are different feelings, but on the whole, they are the same, and this is also the time to test the level of the performers.
For example, some fans of Qin Fangge, even if they have some appreciation of classical music, what they can feel, in this movement, is the rich emotion, that is, the tenderness of meditation, the chanting of sadness, and the dark and melancholy premonition, delicate and quiet fluctuations. Of course, when Qin Fangge is playing, he doesn't have to deliberately express it, and the audience can experience elegance and romance.
Listeners with richer imagination feel like the moonlight is shining all over the earth when the moon is rising, and the romantic moonlight makes people feel hopeful. It's a pity that the clouds are fleeting, and gradually the moon is hidden, which makes people sad.
The most beautiful and romantic part of the whole piece is this first movement, which is also the origin of the name Moonlight Song. After Qin Fangge played, he didn't think about how well he played, and quickly moved on to the next movement. This is also a manifestation of his self-confidence, his current state, if he returns to the original time and space, he also has full confidence to ascend to the throne of the world's best pianist with this moonlight song that has been played by countless people.
The second movement is relatively short, and when Qin Fangge is playing, the tempo is also faster. By observing the speed at which he played and hearing the music in his ears, his peers could tell that he was using an allegro, in a flat major. Short but light, the melody is just as beautiful and beautiful, and it is different from the previous contemplative meditation, like the calm before the storm.
The third movement is a stormy melody, full of irrepressible boiling emotions. In the rhythm of the sudden beating, the surging mood is vividly displayed.
The beautiful piano effect, the melody is beautiful and very substantial, and the audience feels full of passion when they listen to it. At the end, it was like a constant shout, and then suddenly fell silent, and finally completed the final ending with a rapid rhythm.
Despite reluctance and reluctance to finish, there is no doubt that this sonata is over.
Such a romantic and beautiful sonata was something that everyone had never heard before, and soon some people took the lead in applauding. Then, everyone in the concert hall was infected, and they applauded together, and everyone was not willing to be left behind, because that would also mean that they did not understand this beautiful music.
Even though this sonata is very relatable, and it is worth savoring and experiencing, the most important thing for the moment is to express the excitement in each person's heart.
And when applauding, they can also communicate with their friends with their eyes and even words, "I seem to hear the moonlight!"
"When I first heard the first movement, it felt like a fantasia rather than a sonata!"
"A masterpiece of genius! I can't imagine that in this day and age, there is anyone who can write such a beautiful and romantic sonata!"
This kind of work really surprised Deng Hongmei and Xiao Yuran, and while they made eye contact, they did not forget to pay attention to the reactions of others. In fact, you don't have to think about it to know that at this moment, everyone in the concert hall is in the same mood.
This is not a musical work of showmanship, and purely from the perspective of performance techniques, the difficulty of playing is not too high. However, if you want to play the timbre like Qin Fangge just now, this is full of changing emotions, and then create such a dreamlike musical artistic conception, it is really not something that others can do.
