Chapter 183: Six-person scuffle
At two o'clock in the afternoon local time in Prague, all eyes focused on the Central Concert Hall of the Thiers Royal Concert Hall, as we all know, the Central Concert Hall of the Enning Piano Competition has only two opportunities to open, one is the opening ceremony, and the other is the ultimate showdown!
Now, after ten days, it is finally the turn of the Central Concert Hall to open again!
I saw the three doors slowly open, making a heavy sound of mechanical gears, and the audience was already full, black and pressing, which was the most in these days, including King Geness, the Queen and the Speaker of the Joint Council of Geness and many other heavyweights in attendance.
The host said aloud on the stage: "Now let's invite the six contestants who have entered the final showdown with warm applause!"
The three languages of Jes, Mandarin and English took turns broadcasting, and people from all over Shijie cheered, and everyone applauded and looked at the entrance, there were three of them, corresponding to the corridors leading to the Central Concert Hall in the 1st, 2nd and 3rd concert halls.
Walking in from the first entrance is a man and a woman, the man is dressed in a black tuxedo, calm and serious looks very handsome, the corner of his mouth pulls up a smile, the woman is wearing a light yellow dress, her posture is beautiful, her demeanor is down-and-out, the two look like a golden boy and a girl together, a talented woman.
"First of all, we saw two contestants from Huaxia, Jiang Li, who has performed the most outstanding in this year's Enning Piano Competition so far, and Su Qianqian, a genius pianist who is only 16 years old!"
Later, two people walked in from the second entrance, and at first glance, they thought they were two beautiful women, but those who knew the truth could only burst into tears, because one of them was actually a man. It's just that she dresses up more beautiful than a woman.
"Then we saw Princess Milena from Genes and Ba Song, a contestant from Siam!"
The host Zuihou raised his voice and said: "Now the two people who are walking towards us from the third entrance are Anduniel, a Romanian contestant who participated in the ultimate duel for the second time, and the king of the division who won the Enning Piano Competition for two consecutive years, the ace of the German-Italian team, and the brother of the former champion of the competition, Donne. Dauphinβ!"
Thunderous applause resounded in the Central Concert Hall, and everyone's eyes were focused on the six top young pianists who stood out from more than 200 outstanding young pianists in the whole Shijie, Lu Ming was hidden in the crowd, he did not disappear like Liu Fei, but came to the scene of the final showdown of the Enning Piano Competition to watch the game, his purpose was only one, hoping to see Jiang Li lose in the process of winning the championship, preferably sixth, he prayed in his heart. He was cursing desperately, a sinister sneer on his face.
Jiang Li, Su Qianqian, Milena, Ba Song, Dauphin and Andounier.
These six stand on the stage, standing in the eyes of the world, receiving the admiring gaze of all envy, jealousy, and adoration, and they will fight with all their might for the glory of their respective countries and individuals on this stage!
When the applause stopped, the piano wheels were heard rubbing against the ground with a slightly harsh and heavy sound, and six grand pianos were slowly pushed onto the stage by the staff. In the center of the stage, it is arranged in a circle. Each piano is exactly 60 degrees apart!
Completely different from the rules of the previous six rounds, the ultimate showdown is that six people play at the same time, compete in the same field, and influence each other. Compete against each other for the championship!
Therefore, it is not the best to have original songs now, this is the ultimate confrontation of piano performance level, and it is also the ultimate test of the pianist's mental endurance and anti-interference ability!
To know. The same piano piece will be different because different people play it, after all, the rhythm of the master can not be completely consistent, the error exists, just like the same singer sang his own song twice before and after may be slightly different, the small difference between each person will gradually amplify at the same time of interaction, with the continuation of the performance, the difference will become bigger and bigger, and then big enough to affect and interfere with other performers!
At this time, it is a great test of the strength of the performers themselves, how to influence others but let others have a minimal impact on themselves, or even not affect them, and play their own level to the extreme, this is the problem that the six people are about to face, and it is also the key to winning the championship!
In order to accurately distinguish the performance of each player, the organizer has installed a special high-tech recorder on each piano, which can automatically filter the external sound and only leave the sound of the current piano, and transmit it in time, so that the judges can listen to it one by one and judge the superiority, after all, when all six pianos sound, it is difficult to distinguish which one and which.
The repertoire of the ultimate showdown of this year's Enning Piano Competition is Enning's most important masterpiece - "Jiesi National Rhapsody"!
Rhapsody is a musical genre, which originated from the epic chanters who sang or recited with musical instruments in ancient Greece, and later referred to instrumental fantasias developed with the theme of folk songs.
Later, after Enning's vigorous development, Rhapsody became an instrumental solo or orchestral piece that uses national and folk music materials to play, has a free structure, has an epic style and national color, and mostly has a distinct national color and narrative passages, enthusiastic and unrestrained, and Enning's "Jessian National Rhapsody" is one of the most brilliant works.
"Rhapsody of the Genes Nation" is naturally based on the folk music of the Genes nation, and is adapted and played, with a total of 17 pieces, all of which are played for up to three hours, and the final showdown of this year's Enning Piano Competition is specifically selected No. 1 and No. 3...... No. 16 consists of seven rhapsodies and is about an hour long.
This hour will determine the final ranking of Jiang Li's six people, who wins and who loses!
The air was filled with the smell of gunpowder, and the atmosphere in the Central Concert Hall began to become tense, this game, no blood, no swords, but absolutely cruel, since they have all come to this point, no one wants to seize the championship that everyone dreams of, but there is only one champion, and it will only be given to the one who performs the best, who will it be?
The fiery eyes urged Jiang Li and the six of them to take their places, they couldn't wait, hurry up and start the war!
The host confirmed to Jiang Li and the six people, and then they walked to their own positions at the same time, sat down in front of the piano, adjusted their status, and got ready.
The lights dimmed elsewhere in the Central Concert Hall, and six rays of light illuminated the six contestants, who were the six brightest people here today, and the entire shijie audience would be boiling with excitement for their performances!
"I'm already hungry and thirsty, let's get started, hurry!"
"Ah, I'm the same, I'm so excited, although I've been practicing the piano for many years, but to play the piano with five other people on this occasion, it's still a difficult Enning "Jess's National Rhapsody", and it's still an hour, and I will definitely not be able to stand it. β
"That's why they are not normal people, I heard that there were contestants who failed to hold on to Zuihou and lost the battle for a moment, and even fainted on the scene, that kind of psychological pressure is not something that ordinary people can bear at all. β
"Speaking of this question, it suddenly occurred to me that Jiang Li and Su Qianqian's age is too young, one is seventeen, and the other is even only sixteen, which is probably ...... It's not good, after all, the younger the age, the weaker the psychological capacity. β
"Yes, I don't think I've heard of a sixteen or seventeen-year-old contestant who won the championship, but there are a few from second to sixth. β
"So, isn't it more appropriate for Lu Ming?"
"Trouble, please don't mention a person who has already been defeated, okay!"
"In short, watch the game, we can only believe that one of Jiang Li and Su Qianqian can create a miracle, especially Jiang Li!"
"Jiang Li, come on! Su Qianqian, come on!"
Everyone held their breath, and finally a bell rang, announcing the official start of the final showdown, and almost at the same time, Jiang Li's hands all fell on the piano and pressed the first note!
When!
The beautiful piano sound poured out like flowing water, not one strand, but six strands, intertwined with each other, converging into a large strand, such a spectacle is not something that can be appreciated under ordinary circumstances, the audience felt an indescribable shock, the throat was like being choked by someone, no sound was made at all, the body was always tense, motionless.
Lu Ming was stunned at first, and then stared at Jiang Li, the position that should have belonged to him, and kept cursing resentfully: "Defeat, defeat, defeat!"
However, Jiang Li is still playing step by step and passionately, in fact, the opening is not dangerous, first, the difference between them is not very big, and the second is at the peak, but then I am afraid it will not be so simple.
About ten minutes into the performance, at last, Dauphin made a move, and a dangerous and oppressive aura emanated from him, and a gray light that could not be seen by the naked eye spread, first enveloping Andunil and Su Qianqian, who were closest to him, and their expressions changed drastically, because they found that the scene in front of them was gradually blurring and dimming, getting darker and darker, what was going on?
Andunier and Su Qianqian secretly hated in their hearts and complained bitterly, but at this time, there was no way to stop, once they stopped, they would undoubtedly lose, they could only grit their teeth, desperately control the violent ups and downs of their mood, and with their familiarity with the piano and the music itself, they tried their best to play!
However, they can't last long at all, unexpected situations, invisible eyes, extremely fierce and cruel competitive environment, in the face of this kind of challenges, they are about to despair!
At this moment, the two of them found that their eyes gradually lit up again, and the white light, no, the golden light slowly enlarge......d!
