Chapter 185, Who is the champion?
The Pathos Sonata is the pinnacle of Beethoven's early piano sonatas. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The third movement that Li Zhifan is playing now is in the form of a rondo sonata, which has the same motive as the theme motive in the first movement.
In the beautiful melody, with a wandering emotion, it shows a wandering state of mind.
The legato that pours down like raindrops at the beginning is full of youthful brightness and irrepressible vitality.
Behind the fantasy, there is a slight restlessness and restlessness.
The minor theme of the major key, although clear, also hints at the instability of the state of mind with its rapid movement.
The interpolation expresses a truly strong and stable will in a declarative, firm tone.
As far as the first half of "Pathétique" is concerned, the performance technique is not very difficult, and Beethoven's early works pay more attention to melody and drama of content.
So at this moment on the field, although Li Zhifan brought a work with amazing rhythm, he could not compare with a wurm in terms of difficulty and technique in playing.
Many people clenched their fists, and even Mo Huang sighed: "If you look like this, you will definitely lose to Wulong!"
"yes!"
Zhao Yiduo also agreed, "Although the originality is a plus, it may not be able to compare with the other party's adaptation!"
Even a few of the judges showed a worried look, for this piece alone, they could give a very good high score, but with wurm as a reference, it was difficult to choose.
However, when the time was two and a half minutes, the music suddenly changed.
A series of arpeggios floated out under Li Zhifan's flying ten fingers, giving people the feeling of rolling through the keys with their faces, fast and skillful, like the crackling of food just under the oil pot, but it was smooth and free, not chaotic at all.
Although Beethoven rarely showed off his skills, this does not mean that he did not make difficult compositions at all, nor does it mean that those who later performed Beethoven's works did not make some changes to the music.
After all, all of Beethoven's piano pieces are written for the piano, and playing on the modern piano and playing on the piano are completely two different feelings.
In a different time and space, Lang Lang, Li Yundi, Shen Wenyu and other young Chinese pianists have made excellent interpretations of the third movement of this "Pathétique".
In front of the piano, Li Zhifan's flying ten fingers suddenly slowed down, and gently slid a few notes, playing a gentle piece of music, which made everyone's mood relax and ease, but as soon as they took a long breath, the notes suddenly sounded densely again.
And this time, the speed has also increased a lot, which is in line with the sentence: big beads and small beads fall on the jade plate.
The music went on in this tight and loose way, and after five minutes, the music came to a halt after a stormy legato.
And that's the end of it?
Not yet!
Li Zhifan closed his eyes, quickly pressed a few chords in the middle range, and continued to play another section.
This piece is an adaptation of the third movement of "Pathétique", taking only a few bars from the original version, removing many of the slow-paced melodies of the original song, and increasing the dynamics, so that every note is crisp and clean, and the rhythm is more tight and clear.
In another world, this music is very familiar to many post-80s and 90s, but it was not originally a direct adaptation of the original song of "Pathétique", but a game called "Pathétique", adapted "Pathétique", combining the most classic parts of the first movement and the third movement to make a game music called "V3 (O2version)", and then someone adapted a piano piece of "Beethoven's Piano Sonata No. 8 Sad Third Movement" based on this game music.
This second arrangement of the piano piece, Master Lang once improvised it when he was a guest at a singer's concert, and all of it took less than three minutes, but it contained a lot of staggering and difficult performance skills.
Li Zhifan originally wanted to play the first and third movements of "Pathétique", but he changed his plans and played these two sections - the original and arranged pieces.
As he expected, the very modern adaptation in the second half won a lot of amazement from the audience.
"Great!"
"Li Zhifan launched a surge, and ten wulongs can't stop it!"
"It is worthy of Li Zhifan, he has never disappointed in this competition!"
"Classical style and modern interpretation, the same piece of music, but very comprehensive coverage of the two extremes, this piece is bound to become a classic!"
"It's up to the judges! I guess they've forgotten the wurm by now!"
"The key is Zhou Wenying, I hope she doesn't jump up and say something out of tune!"
"I don't want to hear what she says!"
"And Clydwell!"
"Guess who will win the first place in the end, Li Zhifan and Wulong?"
"Can't guess!"
"Don't guess!"
"Both are good, so this one is really hard to predict!"
……
The piano finally fell.
The moment Li Zhifan stood up, the applause of the audience broke out instantly, and even the judges applauded.
Zhou Wenying originally wanted to stand up, but this time before she could speak, she was pressed into the chair by Clydwell.
Li Zhifan walked to the stage with a smile on his face and bowed to all the audience and judges to thank him.
The host came to the stage and said: "It's really a wonderful performance, I believe that many people are as excited as me at this moment, but as a piano novice, my evaluation is useless, or give this work to the judges, and ask the judges to show their scores!"
From left to right, the first to give the score was Wendi Lee.
He did not hesitate to hold up a sign with "100" points written on it, and said: "I am looking forward to Li Zhifan's future, today's performance, I can't make an objective and strict evaluation in such a short time, and in my opinion, the charm and artistic degree of this piano piece is no longer something I can evaluate, I also want to hear the opinions of other judges!"
The judges in the back laughed and said nothing, you gave 100 points, how can we give you your opinion?
The second one was a Japanese judge, who held up the sign with a serious face, "It's good, but I only like the first part, and I can't accept the latter part, so I give it a score of 90!"
The audience was in an uproar!
That's too low, isn't it?
Many people were instantly dissatisfied with this Japanese judge.
Of course, there is hope.
If the scores given by the other judges can be in between, then the scores given by Wendi Li and the Japanese judges will be removed as the highest and lowest scores, so each of the subsequent judges becomes very critical.
Everyone is looking forward to who will be the final champion? )
