"In piano performance, Ni Jun and I take two paths. ⊥," Sun Yun explained with a smile, "There are always three major schools of thought in the piano world. I studied under the Vienna faction, and Ni Jun was from the faction of country F. ”

"There's also a faction that's the R-faction."

"When I was at the National Conservatory of Music in Country F, although Ni Jun and I were classmates, we quarreled a lot because of our different musical concepts. But the more noisy this friendship is, the better, hehe, it's also very interesting to think about it now. ”

"That's the case...... Ye Zi nodded slightly: "Then Sir said don't learn from Teacher Ni like this, this ...... What does this mean? ”

Cai Qingde didn't speak, still looking at the master and apprentice with a smile. Sun Yun thought for a moment, looked at Cai Qingde again, and saw that he nodded slightly, so he turned sideways and faced Ye Zi.

"It's a different idea of music for everyone. Since that's all for today, I'll tell you a little bit about it. ”

Ye Zi also turned sideways and faced Sun Yun.

"The piano is not your main thing, so I haven't told you this for a long time, after all, your future development direction is still on the classical guitar. Bite off more than you can chew. Spreading too much energy across different areas won't do you any good. You have to keep this in mind. ”

"Yes, Teacher." Ye Zi was respectfully taught.

"Well, in fact, you are very thoughtful and know how to arrange your time and energy, and I am just giving you a reminder." Sun Yun smiled slightly: "Okay, let's talk about the Vienna School among the three major schools first." ”

"Vienna?" Ye Zi had heard of this piano school in his previous life, but he was not very clear: "Teacher, is it the piano school founded by Beethoven?" ”

"Huh?" Cai Qingde sighed lightly: "Little guy, do you still know this?" Not bad, not bad. ”

Sun Yun said with a smile: "That's right, this piano genre was created by Le Sheng. Let's start with a look at its factional heritage. ”

"The Viennese faction was inherited from Beethoven to his pupil Czerny. You always knew about Czerny's Piano Etudes, right? It's that Czerny. ”

After Czerny, he was called the most famous and successful piano educator in the history of music education, Leishetitsky of Poland. Beginning in 1841, Leshetitsky studied with Cherny for seven years until his departure in 1848. At the time, he was only eighteen years old. From the age of fourteen, Leshetitsky became a teacher, teaching piano playing to others. ”

"Leschetitsky taught many disciples throughout his life, many of the great pianists of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries were his students. Each of his disciples has a distinct personal style, and each of them is a master of the piano. And that's the greatest thing about Leshetitsky, that he really does what he does. ”

"I'm an early disciple of Schnabel who studied under Leshetitsky. When I was five years old. Jazz enlightened me on the piano, and later at the National Conservatory of Music I met Schnabel's disciple Mr. Felescher and became his personal disciple. ”

"There are some other traditions in this genre, and it's too troublesome to talk about it, so we won't talk about it one by one."

Speaking of this, Sun Yun paused, took a sip of water and drank his throat.

Ye Zi is in his heart. It outlines a lineage of dozens of great pianists starting with Beethoven. One of them is exceptionally clear. That's what Sun Yun just introduced. Others are hidden and cannot be seen clearly. However, its huge branches can be imagined.

The great influence of Le Saint Beethoven in the Western music scene can be seen from this.

After a pause, Sun Yun cleared his throat. Go on.

"The pianists in the R department are basically from the two Rubinsteins. The Rubinstein brothers initiated and founded the first conservatory in the country, which later became the St. Petersburg Conservatory. Anton? Rubinstein was the first director of the conservatory, and Tchaikovsky was the first graduate of the conservatory. ”

"The origin of the R Department is this conservatory. Its students included many famous pianists of the late 19th century, such as Alensky, Silotti and others. ”

Silotti, the pianist, was both Rachmaninoff's cousin and his teacher. Another of his disciples was also famous, and that was Skoryabin. ”

"Modern R-line pianists are basically inherited from these two."

Under Sun Yun's description, the inheritance of the R pianist is also clearly recognizable.

"As for the faction of country F" Speaking of this, Sun Yun shook his head: "To be honest, this faction has a bit of a chaotic feeling. Personally, I'm reluctant to boil it down to a true piano faction. ”

"Not a real faction?" Ye Zi asked. Such an evaluation comes from the mouth of Sun Yun, who has always been kind to others, and it is difficult for Ye Zi to understand.

Cai Qingde also shook his head lightly: "That's right." It's really hard to make sense to say that it's a piano faction with a clear heritage. Xiao Yezi, if you listen to Sun Yun tell you, you will know why you are talking like this. ”

"Yes, sir."

Sun Yun tapped his fingers lightly on the coffee table a few times, shook his head again, and then continued.

"When it comes to the F-country genre, it is necessary to talk about two famous figures in the history of music, Chopin and Liszt. The faction of Country F started with both of them. ”

"Little leaf, isn't it a little strange? The genre of piano handed down by these two talented pianists and composers would be so belittled by me. Sun Yun asked.

Ye Zizheng was puzzled by this.

According to the history of music, Chopin and Liszt can be called masters in composition and performance, especially Liszt has the title of "King of the Piano". The piano genre created by such a character is actually so low in the eyes of Sun Yun?

Why?

Could it be that what Ni Jun taught was really wrong?

Ye Zi was slightly nervous.

Whether it is Sun Yun or Ni Jun, they are both teachers and elders that Ye Zi respects, and he never wants to see an irreconcilable difference between the two teachers.

As if he knew what Ye Zi was thinking, Sun Yun was concerned about Ye Zi as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Xiao Yezi, you don't have to take this kind of thing seriously as a faction. It's like I've been fighting with Ni Jun for decades, no one wants to convince anyone, and no one wants to gain the upper hand. ”

"But no matter what our musical philosophy is, we're still best friends after all these years. So, you don't have to worry about us. ”

"As for you, what Ni Jun taught you is all about performance skills, and it doesn't have much to do with the piano genre. We discussed it before teaching you, and we don't interfere in these things about factions, it's up to you to choose. ”

"Anyway, it's not a big deal." Sun Yun shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "In the future, your headache will be the choice of genre on the classical guitar, not the piano performance." ”

As soon as Sun Yun said this, the atmosphere at the scene immediately relaxed. Sun Yun is not wrong at all, Ye Zi is learning to play the classical guitar instead of the piano, and the battle between the piano factions really has little to do with him.

After taking a sip of water, Sun Yun continued.

"Of course, the origin of a genre is very important, but I think what is more important is its inheritance."

"The source of the F-faction is Chopin and Liszt, and there is certainly no problem with these two. The problem was that the environment in which they lived at the time, Paris, the capital of country F in the mid-nineteenth century, did not value piano playing. At that time, opera and ballet were the music of Paris, and this situation did not gradually improve until after 1870. ”

"So what kind of occasion was the piano played at that time? One was the salon, which was held by the aristocracy, in which both Chopin and Liszt often played. The other is the ball. But Xiao Yezi, you must know that on occasions such as salons and balls, the piano is just an ornament of the vassal elegance of the aristocracy, not the main body. ”

"This situation is confirmed, and the inheritance of the faction in country F has a big problem from the beginning."

Sun Yun shook his head and continued to speak, the disapproval on his face was clearly visible.

"Then Liszt left country F and went to Weimar, where he taught many, many students, but he did not teach them very carefully. Some so-called students who have only taken a few lessons can play Liszt's sign in a recital, and the effect is very bad. Xiao Yezi, you can imagine what the students taught by Liszt, the 'king of the piano', were like during that period. ”

"And Chopin? Most of Chopin's students were after the powerful, such as the daughter of Count So-and-so, and so on. Such a student is unlikely to devote all his energy to playing the piano. Therefore, only a few of Chopin's disciples and re-disciples are really good, such as Micuri and Corto. ”

"So Xiao Yezi, you see, the inheritance of the faction of country F is like this, and there are almost no other piano virtuoso figures other than Colto. And its original source is from an occasion like the salon, want us to really recognize this genre, how do you say? (To be continued.) )
