Chapter 101: "Wild Bee Flying" vs. "Winter Wind"
The little boy who played Chopin's improvisational fantasia finally completed the whole piece in its entirety.
Of course, perfection is not counted, but it is absolutely rare to be able to play the piano to this level at his age.
The little boy didn't seem particularly satisfied with his performance today, but it was also within his expectations.
At least, there should be very few people who can do better than him, and the top three are proper!
Intermission.
Xu Jingting said: "That boy played so well just now, he should be the favorite to win the championship in this competition." Wei Yu, in your eyes, what do you think?"
Jiang Weiyu also felt that the little boy was very powerful, but not as powerful as her, so she had to smile and say: "Very good, the top three should be very promising." ”
"What about you, can you surpass him?" asked Xu Jingting.
"Probably ......" Jiang Wei added a rough idea, saying that she was not sure, but as for the real thoughts, it was difficult for others to guess.
Ye Xiaoke pricked up his ears to listen to Jiang Weiyu and Xu Jingting's conversation. After listening to it, the idea in my heart was also confirmed to a certain extent, and the beautiful girl in the white dress seemed to be quite powerful.
"That's what makes sense. Ye Xiaoke thought that he would not be able to meet any decent opponents in this piano competition, but now it seems that this is not the case.
Several piano professors talked in private: "This player just now is good, the level is already comparable to the professional level, and it seems that he is the favorite to win the championship in this competition." ”
"Master Shen Yan, what do you think of the boy just now?"
"I don't dare to be a master. Shen Yan seemed to be recalling the little boy's performance before, and then said seriously:
"The rhythm is very good. To be able to grasp a piece of this difficulty to this extent is almost at the level of a professional pianist. It seems that the boy is from a professional class, and the teacher must not be an ordinary person. However, his left hand position is not very well taken care of, and sometimes he can't keep up with the rhythm of his right hand, and he drags his back a little, which may be related to nervousness, but it doesn't hurt. ”
"Yes, how many points does Mr. Shen think can he score for such a performance?"
Shen Yan said: "My personal opinion, if the average score of the previous players is only about 90, this can at least score 94 points, which is very good." ”
A group of old professors agreed, basically the little boy just now was an advantage in the crushing level for the other players in front.
"I don't know if there are any more powerful players in the future, there are more powerful players than this?" Shen Yan looked forward to it in his heart, and the little boy just now also met his requirements for accepting apprentices.
At the end of the intermission, Xu Jingting was arranged for the first game after the break.
Walking onto the stage nervously, Xu Jingting worked hard to show herself, but looking at the expressions of the judges, it can be said with certainty that her performance is definitely not eye-catching, at least it did not make the judges show a very appreciative expression.
"Sure enough, it's still too mediocre. Xu Jingting sighed, and could only look forward to Jiang Weiyu's performance.
It didn't take long for Ye Xiaoke to finally take his turn to play.
There was a sensational effect off the field again that was similar to when the little boy came on the field before, and it may even be a little more sensational.
"This is Ye Xiaoke, I know her! When she was eight years old, she had already achieved some results in the piano competition, and I was only in high school at that time. Listening to her piano, sometimes I feel ashamed myself, but it's really good to play. ”
"It's an exaggeration, I came to prominence at the age of eight, and I don't know what kind of level I can reach at my current piano level?"
"Last year, I was quite impressed by the other piano competition, the 10-11 year old piano competition. I thought she wouldn't appear on the field this year, but the result still came, and it is estimated that there will be progress again this year. ”
These professors, who served as judges, already had the basic information of the contestants, including some of the contestants' previous piano competition results.
After seeing Ye Xiaoke's past achievements, the judges had deeper expectations for her.
Shen Yan's heart beat a little faster.
This little girl is the kind of super genius he is looking for!
hasn't started playing yet, and everyone has high expectations for Ye Xiaoke.
""Wild Bees Flying", a piano grade 9 repertoire, I don't know what kind of effect she can play?" Shen Yan was very curious.
In the piano competition, the grading of the repertoire is not very important, and the score of the repertoire of grade 10 is not necessarily higher than that of the repertoire of grade 9, and everything still depends on the performance of the scene.
Ye Xiaoke's purpose in today's competition is not very strong, her most important purpose is to show off her skills, so she chose "Wild Bee Flying", a track that shows off more skills than performance.
Moreover, each person played two pieces in the finals, and "Flying Bees" as the first etude, which is short but can instantly highlight the level of the pianist, is a very good choice.
Ye Xiaoke calmed down, moved her fingers slightly in the air, and after finding the feeling, her fingers fell.
Pedal Pedal Ped
It's fast!
In the preliminary competition, when Jiang Weiyu played Czerny tunes, she reached a hand speed of 170-180, which was already very amazing at that time, but now Ye Xiaoke's hand speed is estimated to have reached about two hundred!
As soon as it opened, it detonated the atmosphere of the scene.
Basically, this is the pianist's showmanship.
"It's very accurate, I didn't play a wrong note, it's very rare!" some old professors on the judges' bench twitched the corners of their mouths a few times. At such a level, they are afraid that they can't do it now, but they can do it before, but Ye Xiaoke on the stage is only 12 years old, and he is much better than them.
The heat in Shen Yan's eyes became a little more.
He concentrated his attention, trying to find even a small mistake from Ye Xiaoke's piano sound, but unfortunately, there was no mistake at all!
This girl is amazing!
Shen Yan couldn't wait to go up right now and take Ye Xiaoke as an apprentice to cultivate well. At such a level, after a few years of his guidance, and then two years of further study abroad, it is not impossible to impact a world-class pianist, at least it will be higher than his achievements in the field of piano!
"So fast!"
"Jiang Wei's words are dangerous, this person is even better than her!" Liang Fengyang didn't think it was a big deal to see the excitement, and his face looked a little red because he was too excited.
Xu Jingting was also very shocked, glanced at Jiang Weiyu, and felt that Jiang Weiyu was likely to be inferior to Ye Xiaoke.
Off the field, some people couldn't help but want to applaud, but in the end, they still pressed it down, and cheered for Ye Xiaoke excitedly.
"Genius!"
Countless praises seemed to be waiting for Ye Xiaoke to finish playing, and then throw these praises at her.
When the song was played in one minute and twenty-five seconds, the scene resounded with thunderous applause!
This is no longer a competition, but a piano concert.
The judges got up and asked everyone to be quiet, so that Ye Xiaoke could finish the second song.
Ye Xiaoke's second piece is also perfect, no longer showing off his skills, but putting his emotions into it, showing another superb level of his work on the piano.
After playing, Ye Xiaoke received the warmest applause from the audience.
All the judges were conquered by Ye Xiaoke's piano skills, nodded again and again, and the enthusiasm for discussion was also a lot higher.
How many points?
At least between 95-96 points.
In the end, the judges gave an average of 95.6 super high scores.
"The last one to come to power is estimated to have an unbalanced mentality, right?"
"The one in the back is unlucky, and now it is estimated that the mentality will explode. ”
Who's next?
Jiang Weiyu was reminded that when Ye Xiaoke walked off the stage, she walked up in the applause of everyone who had not yet subsided.
"It's actually Jiang Weiyu, it's over, Ye Xiaoke performed so well before, Weiyu is estimated to be out of order!"
"Don't think that this is not good, Jiang Weiyu is the first in the piano competition in our district, not necessarily worse than Ye Xiaoke!" Some of Jiang Weiyu's classmates said unconvinced, but their voices were also a little weak.
Ye Xiaoke is really powerful, even people who have never learned the piano know that Ye Xiaoke's performance just now is so powerful that it explodes.
Ye Xiaoke was stunned for a moment when he saw Jiang Weiyu coming to the stage, and then the smile on his face was a little more, and he felt that it was just what I wanted.
Jiang Weiyu came to power.
The judges looked at Jiang Weiyu's information one after another, and it turned out that he was also the first in the regional competition, but Jiang Weiyu's previous record was completely absent, which made the judges unsure of Jiang Weiyu's approximate level.
Shen Yan was thinking about the matter of accepting apprentices, and he didn't care much about Jiang Weiyu.
Jiang Weiyu pressed a few key tones.
"Winter wind?"
"Chopin's Etude of the East Wind, also known as the Etude of Withered Leaves, is generally considered to be the most difficult of Chopin's etudes. This piece is difficult for many performance-level pianists to take, and this little girl actually used it for competition?"
Many people are not very optimistic about Jiang Weiyu.
After a relatively slow piano playing, suddenly, Jiang Weiyu's powerful explosive power burst out, and the fierce key sound made many people's hearts feel like a muffled thunder.
The front is like an autumn breeze, and in a blink of an eye, the grim atmosphere is coming, and this kind of performance also makes the judges present turn back to listen to Jiang Weiyu's playing from Ye Xiaoke's performance in a blink of an eye.
Shen Yan couldn't believe that one Ye Xiaoke was amazing enough, and there was a second player on the scene who really entered the performance level.
"Today's young people are really getting more and more powerful...... Shen Yan sighed, and also attached great importance to Jiang Weiyu's piano sound.
Jiang Weiyu quickly entered the feeling and found that angry and lonely state.
Her piano has a dazzling technique, with a finger speed of about two hundred, although it is not as good as Ye Xiaoke's "Wild Bee Flying", but this speed is definitely in the range of dazzling skills;
"There is no mistake, the score played is completely correct and there are no mistakes, and the coordination of the left and right hands is also very harmonious. Although not as good as those top music masters, this little girl already has the atmosphere of a world-class pianist. ”
The judges present, when they heard the middle, knew that the girl in front of them was amazing, and her future achievements were likely to be above Ye Xiaoke!
Ye Xiaoke was still full of confidence just now, but at this moment she knew that there were people outside the people, there were mountains outside the mountains, and the girl in front of her who was the same age as her had more strength than her!
Bai Yiru almost screamed in surprise.
She covered her mouth with her hands, and couldn't believe such a scene: This is the strength of her daughter? Jiang Xia has already cultivated her daughter so well?
Those classmates of Jiang Weiyu, the momentum that fell just now has been found back in a blink of an eye!
"Jiang Weiyu is really invincible!"
"It's over, I don't know who is better than whom, anyway, both of them crushed the other players on the scene. ”
Shen Yan had already decided at this time that no matter what, he would also take Jiang Weiyu under his disciple and become his most proud disciple! Of course, the premise is that Jiang Weiyu should not have a teacher who is more awesome than him, otherwise it is not a good thing to rob students!
Jiang Weiyu's "Winter Wind" was played, and the applause at the scene was no weaker than the applause given to Ye Xiaoke before.
The judges at the scene thought that Jiang Weiyu's second song might be a little more relaxed.
However, when Jiang Weiyu played the second "Passion Sonata", the judges' faces changed again.
What is Genius?
The so-called geniuses in the past are not counted.
What I saw today is the real demon!
"Rob, as long as this girl's teacher is not famous, I must snatch this girl!" Shen Yan didn't want the face of the judges and the piano master, and thought about taking the initiative to be Jiang Weiyu's teacher.
Such an opportunity is so rare!
