Act 30: Rosen's Piano Sonata (Part I)
"He's going to play the piano?"
"Isn't it, does Ash really use that thing?"
"Even if you can play the piano, isn't it a little too confident to play in front of Edward's adults?"
"It's a funeral song and a requiem that comes out. ”
...... As Rosen walked towards the piano, the nobles around him whispered, not believing that Rosen could play any convincing tune.
Even Randall, seeing Rosen make such a move, was a little worried about him, after all, Rosen may be very good at fighting, but in terms of art, Randall seems to have not seen Rosen's craft, and is a little curious about how he will play.
Theoretically, after the black iron level, the control of the body is complete, and after having superhuman perception, it is not difficult to use a musical instrument, and a complex instrument like the piano can be completely learned and mastered in a day or two at most.
But being able to play and knowing how to play are two different concepts.
If you play it completely according to the score, without the slightest hint of accuracy, then it will only be a dry repetition, with no artistic charm, unless there are some difficult tunes for showmanship, it doesn't make much sense.
If you want to play out your feelings, you must first understand the origin of the music itself, the life of the composer, why he wrote such a song, and think about what kind of emotions and ways to present this music.
As for adding more elements to the piece as the icing on the cake, then it's a more advanced approach.
Irandall did not doubt that Rosen could play a pleasant piece with precision, and even if he was careful, Rosen should be able to replicate the music that Prince Edward had just played, but that didn't mean anything.
The reason why Rosen came forward must be an attempt to use music to present his own ideas and open an opening for the current frozen situation.
So Irandall was worried about Rosen, and unconsciously pinched the corner of his clothes, and Bishop Eldridge beside him looked at the nun thoughtfully and didn't say anything.
Rosen nodded to Prince Edward, and the nobleman politely stepped out of his place, watching with interest as he moved.
Lawson sat down and glanced at the piano.
It has to be said that in this era when the level of productivity is restricted, this piano can definitely be called a work of art, the workmanship is flawless, the pure white body exudes a holy texture, and the black and white keys reflect the light, making the whole piano shine.
Of course, Rosen couldn't play the piano, and the piano in his previous life was a very distant existence for him, and he could only watch others play on stage with envy.
However, he was a good learner, and as Edlandall had expected, Rosen had completed the learning process while watching Prince Edward play, and now he was definitely a good pianist, even if he had never touched the piano before.
Moreover, through the ability to perceive the absolute sense of tone, Lawson can basically reproduce most of the tunes he has listened to in the previous life, in a sense, even if Lawson relies on the music library of the previous life, he can beat the musicians of this era in terms of quantity and quality.
But again, being able to play and knowing how to play are two different concepts.
Rosen thinks that he does not have much artistic accomplishment, and if he chooses some world-famous songs from the previous life, he can only achieve the level of "reproduction" at most, and there is no way to compare with Prince Edward, who can compose music independently.
Moreover, it is not easy for Ash to find a piece that matches their character, the typical hopeful and cheerful song is obviously not good, the rousing war song is not suitable for this occasion, and the gorgeous showmanship is even more meaningless, and Rosen's choice of music must be very precise in order for people to understand his intentions.
More importantly, Rosen needs to convey the idea that Ash is no different from ordinary people, and they are not special existences, just like ordinary you, me and him.
If the other party thinks that you are different from the beginning, then the possibility of dialogue will no longer exist.
Seeing Rosen sitting at the piano in contemplation, the commotion of the crowd became more and more obvious.
"Why did he sit there motionless?"
"Are you recalling how you played the piano when you were alive?"
"Or is it difficult to ride a tiger, and now you are looking for a way out of trouble?"
"Maybe it's a live composer. ”
Just when everyone was speculating, Rosen moved.
He raised a hand, lightly placed it on the key, and pressed a note.
The clear sound spreads out, and even a layman can tell that the quality of this piano is extremely good.
Rosen was auditioning.
There are many pianos, although the shape is gorgeous, the materials are exquisite, but they have lost the most basic quality of the piano as a musical instrument, but this one is obviously not that kind of goods, it still maintains the most essential things of the piano, and playing with such a piano is also a kind of enjoyment for musicians.
In the thinking just now, Rosen had already figured out what kind of music to play.
He pressed another note, this time a deep bass, a deep, rhythmic sound that rippled through the air.
Taking this as an opportunity, Lawson began to play.
"Huh?"
But after Rosen played a few notes, Irandall felt a little strange.
Because Lawson doesn't really look like a qualified player now, he only moves his right hand, playing only one note at a time, and the intervals are very long, at first glance, it looks like a beginner is slowing down.
From his playing, it is also difficult to capture the existence of the so-called melody, let alone any chords.
Irandall looked at the others, most of them were also confused, and they really couldn't figure out whether Lawson was playing now, or if he was still auditioning.
Lawson didn't stop, still hitting the keys in such a slow way that even Prince Edward was confused, with a suspicious look in his eyes, and thought that Lawson was playing tricks on him.
Just as the crowd began to grow loud and uncontrollable, Lawson finally finished the first measure, which was marked by the fact that his left hand was finally raised and placed on the keys.
As the second measure is played, two differences are quickly noticed.
The first point is that Rosen's main theme doesn't seem to have changed much.
The second point is that the chords in his left hand seem to be ...... Is it the staccato note that was played earlier?
