Chapter 366: Mu Yu's Collection

Jiang Li came to the capital this time and lived in Mu Yu's house, which is also a single-family villa, but the overall area is smaller than Li Gan's house, and there is only Mu Yu in such a big house, which looks very wasteful, but in fact, it is not, because Mu Yu is a collector, this villa is not a residence at all, but Mu Yu's private collection room.

As soon as you enter the door, you can see a grand piano in the living room, not a small grand piano for home, but a grand piano used in the recital, and it is the proud work of the world's top piano brand "Bessen", known as the imperial piano, unlike the general piano only has 88 keys, this piano has a total of 97 keys, more than 8 octaves, and the extra keys are located on the far left of the keyboard, that is, the lowest note, which is not used in general music, but some special music may be required, enriching the possibility of playing.

In addition, the combination of the powerful soundboard and the world's top resonant cloud wood, coupled with Bessen's unique and exquisite piano craftsmanship, makes people feel the sound of the symphony orchestra on a piano, shocking the soul, incomparable, and absolutely worthy of the name of "emperor"!

At first, this was specially made for a famous pianist in Italy, because the other party wanted to create an organ piece, but the lowest note of the piece was beyond the range of the standard piano keyboard, so Bessen created this 97-key piano, and the other party was very satisfied, so Bessen decided to mass-produce this piano, which was quickly welcomed by pianists from all over the world, and even many famous pianists composed some pieces for this piano.

A Beson Imperial Piano is now worth at least one million, and it is by no means something that ordinary people can afford, nor can ordinary people make full use of.

Mu Yu's family also has an unusual significance, it was personally given to him by Mu Yu's teacher.

As one of the world's top piano companies controlled by the Austrian royal family, Bessen has always adhered to the principle of preferring shortage to excess, and striving for excellence, so its piano has always been one of the best choices for all pianists. It is called the "Austrian National Treasure" and plays the purest "Viennese sound".

Speaking of Bessen piano, I have to mention another person, Enning, because Enning's playing style is extremely passionate, which is difficult to hear. It was destructive, so the piano that he had played several times was basically unusable, and the only piano that could withstand Enning's long and passionate performance was Bessen, and since then, Odi Bessen has spread all over the world along with the fame of Jess Enning.

After listening to Mu Yu tell the history of this piano, Jiang Li couldn't help but sit on the stool and improvised the ninth super technique etude - "Memories", as if he had returned to Enning's hometown, that beautiful Central European city. Prague, the capital of Jes, where he met Princess Jess Milena, and he still remembers the first encounter with Milena around the corner, when the bell rang in Prague Square, flocks of white doves flew up, and he and Milena hugged each other tightly, and finally. He then meets a homeless Milena at a bar and takes her back to his hotel room.

Three near-dreamlike encounters a day. Like the flowing water of the Vltava River, it is tender and long-lasting, and he can't help but smile when he thinks of the legend that the king and queen of Bohemia met and fell in love because they met three times a day in Prague. Milena stubbornly gave him her first kiss and poured out her love to him, but he chose to run away on the grounds that the other party was too young to understand love, as if he was expecting something, and seemed to be resisting something. The stupid man is hopeless, but no matter what the outcome, it's a pleasant experience that he will always remember.

He also thought of the deep friendship between Prague and Peng Yi, the battle of wits and courage with Xu Zhi and Lu Ming, and the Enning Piano Competition, which was his first worldwide honor, and it was precisely because of this that he began to be widely recognized and known by the world, and he still remembered that on the day he left Prague, everyone performed the song "Prague Square" in the square, which officially opened the prelude to the domestic music liberalization movement in Jies.

At the end of the song, Jiang Li's memories of the city of Prague also came to an abrupt end, speaking of which, since leaving Prague, Milena has never contacted him, obviously has his mobile phone number, perhaps, the other party has forgotten him and started a new life, that's fine, he shouldn't delay a girl's life, after all, he is so unreliable emotionally.

There was a burst of applause in his ears, Jiang Li turned his head to look, only to see Mu Yu said with relief: "I originally thought that you had been busy with various things for several days, and maybe you were a little rusty with the piano, but I didn't expect that your piano level not only did not regress in the slightest, but became more and more exquisite, which is really good." ”

"I'm the only student of the great musician Mu Yu, how can I embarrass the teacher. Jiang Li smiled slightly.

"You kid, your mouth is getting sweeter and sweeter, do you want my piano, if you want it, just say it, I can give it to you, it was originally given to me by my teacher, and then passed on to my students, it is also a good story. Mu Yu said very happily.

Jiang Li shook his head and said, "It's too heavy, I'm not qualified to move it away for the time being." ”

Mu Yu smiled silently, very satisfied with Jiang Li's non-arrogant and impatient attitude, and led the other party to continue to visit the other collections in the villa.

All kinds of pianos emerge in an endless stream, all of which have extraordinary origins, or are treasured by Western royal families, or played by a famous pianist, and even ancient plucked clairads and percussion cladows.

The plucked piano is a device that is installed at the end of the keyboard, and the plucked strings are made of leather wrapped in a thin sheet of metal, and there are also feathers that use birds, so it is also called a harpsichord, although this way of stimulating the strings has shortcomings that cannot be ignored, such as making noise, but its slender and charming timbre is unique in style, and the strumming piano also has a similar feeling.

As the predecessor of the modern piano, the ancient piano, a weak, slender and shy lady, gradually retreated behind the curtain of the music stage in modern society, but people will not forget its former glory and achievements, and when they meet the right person, they can also shine dazzlingly, such as Mu Yu, he used the plucked piano to play a serenade for Jiang Li, tender like water, romantic like the moon, and people are fascinated.

The piano is engraved with the vicissitudes of history and heaviness, full of the atmosphere of classical tradition, in the process of communicating with each other, the bright energy of the music hall has also been purified and refined, becoming more condensed and pure, he has long discovered this fact, the older the age, The higher the quality of the instrument, the more it will help him, thinking that Guangyin said that he must improve his strength in order to have a chance to become the true master of the music hall, resurrecting the dead Ye Chen, he became excited, it seems that living in Mu Yu's house these days can communicate with these precious collections.

In addition to the piano, Mu Yu here is the most Chinese guqin, there are the proud works of modern and modern qin masters, there are also ancient famous qin, but the earliest is the early years of the Ming Dynasty, not as long as the turquoise between the Yiqin, but also extraordinary, and the piano style is diverse, there are Fuxi style, Zhongni style, Lianzhu style, Luoxia style, Shennong style, etc., which makes people dizzy.

Looking at it all the way, Jiang Li was already itching, Eager to try, the musical talent in the previous life is not good, so although he yearns for instruments such as the guqin and piano, but he can only stay away, this life is just the opposite, he is sure that he has fallen in love with this kind of feeling that can be used to the instrument like an arm, hearing the beautiful music born from his fingertips, he simply can't stop, it is not difficult for those who will not play, it may be painful for those who can't play, but it is definitely a kind of enjoyment for those who can play, so there are those who dedicate their lives to music but are willing to eat.

Although Jiang Li initially relied on the ability of the music palace, he also gradually formed his own musical talent, and now he is really enjoying it.

In addition to these pianos and guqins, as well as a few other musical instruments, the rest are all kinds of piano scores and piano books, which are also of extraordinary origin, many of which are original manuscripts or even solitary ones.

Mu Yu suddenly took out a qin book from the shelf, handed it to Jiang Li, and said: "This is the original manuscript of the introductory qin book I wrote, there are some revisions and annotations on it, you can experience it carefully, it should be helpful for you to learn the guqin, and after you finish reading this book, I will start to teach you formally, if you have any questions that you don't understand, you can come and ask me." ”

Jiang Li solemnly took the piano book, and did not immediately look at it, but said, "Teacher, I am afraid that the collection you have here can be opened in an exhibition." ”

"Actually, that's what I thought, and in a few years, I might consider opening a museum, but I'll have to collect as many as I can. Mu Yu said with a smile.

"Then please let me do my part. Jiang Li said seriously, the cost of building a museum and buying more precious collections is by no means a small amount, the total value of the collection in Mu Yu's villa alone is estimated to be hundreds of millions, it is worthy of a world of music supreme, Mu Yu as a world-famous musician, has a lot of income.

Mu Yu smiled with relief: "It's okay if you have this intention." ”

Of course, Jiang Li not only has this heart, he will also take action, but it is inconvenient to say more at this time.

Mu Yu left the study, leaving Jiang Li alone to quietly read the introductory piano book just now, he read it very quickly, almost ten lines at a glance, but it was not hastily, but really looked into it, thanks to his super spiritual power, just like that, time passed imperceptibly, and the piano book slowly became thinner, until it was finished, he let out a long breath, looked out the window at the afterglow of the sunset, and stretched a big lazy waist with satisfaction.
