Chapter 280: Chopin's Etudes
At the beginning of October, after Jiang Li's final decision, the first chapter of "The Legend of the God of Music" was officially published in the "Silent Night Thoughts" Literary and Art Newspaper, and began to be serialized, the first chapter described the background and scene of the story with very delicate and vivid and vivid brushstrokes, the beauty and sacredness of the heaven and the temple where the god of music lives and the harmonious and happy life between him and the angels make people infinitely yearning, the names of the characters are only slightly changed on the basis of their real names, including the god of music A Li, also known as A Li God, the archangel Nala, Yutong, poetry and morning, little angel ripples, Xiao Yun, Meng Yan and Xiao Fei.
The first chapter has not yet entered the main topic, but once it is published, it has caused a great sensation and controversy, people who like Jiang Li Nala and others applauded and applauded in approval, but there are also many people who use extremely fierce wording, directly accusing Jiang Li of being shameless, and even using this kind of self-obscenity to put a high hat on himself, such a little musical achievement in vain claiming to be the god of music, you must know that no one in this world dares to say so.
Jiang Li was once again pushed to the forefront, he was very helpless, isn't it just a novel, so excited? Could it be that if he is written in the novel, he is really the god of music? He actually had the intention of having fun, but when he was stimulated by this, his attitude became more and more firm, I just want to write something? He simply turned a deaf ear to all the criticism and criticism from the outside world.
But ignoring it was not ignorant, this time the wave of opposition was huge, and he had to make some kind of response, and then he heard a statement that he had been proud and impetuous since he came back from the Enning Piano Competition, and that he could no longer compose classical music quietly, and that "Etude de Supertechnique" was his pinnacle, and that classical music had always had a higher status than pop music in this world, so he said so.
So this time, Jiang Li decided to choose classical music as the starting point, and he made an announcement through his personal homepage on the music network. He said that he would publish the piano etude again.
This news undoubtedly caused a sensation again, especially at this critical juncture, it was like it was specially prepared to slap some people in the face, because of the "Super Technique Etude" and the classical music fans who loved Jiang Li couldn't help but be full of anticipation, I don't know what kind of surprise Jiang Li will bring to them this time, but some of the more important people in the classical music industry are also one of the leaders of this wave of opposition but said mercilessly: "This is just Jiang Li's distraction." Don't be deceived by him, you see that he didn't point out the specific time to reserve a way back for himself, and it will be delayed indefinitely in the future, even if it is really published, there may only be one or two songs, and the quality is average, far from the level of "Super Technique Etude", just fooling everyone. ”
This figure's public remarks in the media made some opponents of Jiang Li applaud and celebrate. But the good times didn't last long, and on the second day, Jiang Li published his first piano etude, "Etude in C major", in the classical music section of the music network.
The author of this piano etude is Chopin, mentioning Chopin, who is a household name in the original world of the world, his full name is Frédéric Chopin, and he is a famous Polish composer and pianist in the original world of the world. Chopin showed an amazing talent for music from an early age and began learning music at the age of six. He composed polonaise at the age of seven, performed on stage at the age of eight, and became famous before the age of twenty, he is one of the most influential and popular piano composers in the history of the original world, one of the most important figures in the history of Polish music, and a representative of 19th-century romantic music in Europe. He composed a large number of piano pieces in his life, known as the "romantic piano poet", and the world of Enning Piano Competition status equivalent to the original world of the
Chopin's piano etudes should not be overlooked. Occupying an important position in the history of classical music in the original world, if Bach's prelude is a code of classical piano technique, then Chopin's etudes and Liszt's etudes together constitute the code of romantic piano technique.
Chopin was the founder of the concert etude, and Liszt developed the concert étude to the pinnacle of interpretation, and together they wrote a glorious chapter in the history of classical music in the original world, and of course, Debussy and others also contributed to the development of the etude.
Chopin composed a total of 27 etudes during his lifetime, of which the first 24 etudes were divided into two collections, Op. 10 and No. 25, and three unnumbered etudes were published after his death, also known as Three New Etudes.
Jiang Li's first published "Etude in C major" is the first piece of Chopin's work No. 10, which is obviously influenced by Bach, and is manifested in the tonal pattern of breaking up the third chord and the seventh chord, its tone is clear, the harmony is rigorous, and the mood is solemn, almost "chant", so some people jokingly call it "the hymn of the escape".
It is worth mentioning that the 10th work is a collection of piano etudes dedicated to Liszt, Liszt actually has the grace of knowing Chopin, although both are the most important pianists of the nineteenth century, but Liszt is famous for the world earlier than Chopin, when Chopin only arrived in Paris, no one knows who he is, everyone is familiar with the famous pianist Liszt, a not very famous foreign pianist is difficult to perform at the Paris Opera and be recognized, but Liszt admired Chopin's talent very much, and wanted to introduce Chopin to the audience in Paris, so he thought of an ingenious way。
That night, Liszt gave a public performance, this time he extinguished all the lights in the recital hall, and the hall was dark, only the beautiful sound of the piano came out, and everyone listened to it so fascinated that even the pedestrians and coachmen outside the door were attracted by the music.
When the music came to an abrupt end, the hall suddenly lit up, but everyone found that it was not Liszt who was standing on the stage for a curtain call, but a strange young man.
Suddenly, the audience burst into long-lasting applause, it turned out that Liszt took advantage of the lights of the venue to go out, quietly changed Chopin to the piano seat, through this method he let people appreciate Chopin's superb piano level, and since then, Chopin has become a blockbuster and famous.
This story is still a good story today, and it also reflects the noble character of a true pianist, rather than the cynicism and condescending criticism of some people in this world, who seize the slightest opportunity to sneer and criticize and blame. (To be continued......)
