Chapter 311: The Master's First Lesson

The master still maintained a smile on his face, sitting calmly on the piano bench, the guitar was already in his arms, and the eyes behind the glasses looked at Ye Zi sitting opposite him quietly. :3w.しWxs520.οΌ£oοΌ­

"I know what you're thinking, my child." As soon as the master spoke, Ye Zi was startled: "You must be thinking that this damn old man has finally finished it, I can finally be free, and I will never take such a twisted and awkward performance basic test again." ”

"Well, according to what you think, these tests are all ...... Screwed up. ”

"My child, I'm not wrong, am I?"

The corners of the master's mouth curved slightly, and he asked with a smile.

In this teaching space, the teacher knows exactly what the students are thinking, but the students can't understand what the teacher is thinking.

It's a one-way psychic channel.

Ye Zi didn't know why the designer of the system made such an arrangement, but he knew that his thoughts in his heart could not be hidden from the master opposite.

Ye Zi readily admitted this.

"Yes, Honorable Master, I did have such thoughts in my heart. I'm a little confused, master, your basic test of playing is much stranger than the test of the system, I don't quite understand this. ”

Ye Zi directly threw out his doubts.

This kind of doubt has been in his heart since the beginning of the test.

"Well, that's a great question, and we're going to talk about it in our first class today." The master nodded: "My child." I wonder what exactly you're wondering? ”

Ye Zi thought carefully for a moment, and then said, "Respected master. Do you think my playing foundation is solid enough now? ”

"Oh, you're one of the two students I've ever taught, with the most solid foundation in playing." The master did not hesitate to praise himself: "There is another one that you will definitely have the opportunity to meet in the future, and he is Williams." ”

"Williams is a true talent. Of course, so do you. In some ways, you are better than him. ”

"My child. I'm more than willing to teach you all of my experience. But first, we need to get on the same page. ”

"So, please speak of your doubts first, my child. We need to communicate openly and honestly, and I said that at the beginning. ”

The master's words and expressions were frank and sincere.

"Thank you, Master, for your encouragement." Ye Zi stood up and bowed, slightly excited in his heart.

All the one that paid for it. It's worth it.

The master looked at him with a smile and nodded slightly.

After sitting down, Ye Zi spoke: "Master, what I have always wondered about is this. Your demands on me are basically the opposite of my understanding of performance, or at least very different from my understanding of performance. ”

"Excuse me, Master, what is this for?"

The master nodded slightly, always smiling: "That's right, that's right. To answer this question, I would like to ask you a question, what do you think is the correct understanding of performance? ”

"Based on your doubts. Because my request conflicts with your understanding, it is necessary to understand your understanding of the performance itself. ”

"Otherwise, there would be no talk of conflict."

It's a logical idea.

Ye Zi also nodded and said, "Master, according to my understanding, playing is to follow the notes and terminology recorded in the score to restore the music composed by the composer with the instrument in his hand. ”

Bang bang bang.

The master clapped his hands lightly, applauding in support of Ye Zi's point of view.

"It's the first time I've heard such a succinct and accurate description of the performance itself from a virtuoso young person like you, and it's fantastic."

"I'm so proud of you, my child."

"I think I get what you mean."

The master said softly.

Ye Zi thanked the master for his encouragement, and then asked, "Master, please help me solve my doubts." ”

The master smiled slightly, then pointed to the guitar and looked at Ye Zi: "You listen to me play a piece of music first." ”

"Master, it's my pleasure." Ye Zi concentrated and listened.

With a light press of the left hand and a lift of the right hand, the maestro begins to play.

The sound of the guitar sounded, but Ye Zi's brows wrinkled into the word "Chuan".

How could it be...... Such?

What the master played at this time was the song "Cha Kong" that Ye Zi liked very much and played before the test. But this same song, at this moment, under the hands of Master Segovia, completely lacks the rich and authentic royal style that Ye Zi heard in the CD. The emotions expressed by the master in the music at this moment are a faint indulgence of leisure and laziness, as well as the splendor peculiar to medieval Western music. Compared with the solemn sΓΉmu of the royal aristocracy recorded in the score, the music at this moment is like an elf dancing in the forest.

The taste is completely different from the original, and it is beautiful and good.

But...... But is this still the song "Cha Kong"?

Ye Zi's heart was in a mess, and his decades of performance experience in his past and present lives were completely subverted by the master.

"Of course, this is still the song "Cha Kong"." The maestro did not finish the whole piece, he only played a short section and then stopped.

But this little paragraph is enough.

"Ye Zi, my child, if your dream is just to be a good enough professional classical guitarist, then you don't need to take my course." The maestro's smile is still on his lips, but his eyes are sharp: "Your playing foundation is solid enough, as long as you continue along this path, you will become one of the best classical guitarists in the world." ”

"Nothing can stop you, you already have such a prima by now. All you lack is experience on stage and life experience as you get older. ”

"Everything else, whether it's the playing technique, the expression of the piece, or the interpretation of the core idea, you already have it."

"You're now a qualified, if not excellent, classical guitarist."

Speaking of this, the master stopped and looked at Ye Zi's eyes silently.

Ye Zi's heart became slightly nervous.

"Master, what if...... What if I'm still not satisfied? ”

"Then you're going to sue me, what kind of virtuoso do you want to be?" The master's tone was flat, and his sharp eyes looked directly at Ye Zi's heart.

"Maestro, I want to be a virtuoso like you!" Ye Zi blurted out.

This is the goal that Ye Zi has been pursuing in his heart in classical guitar performance in his past and present lives.

The master nodded and said calmly, "Then you can continue to learn from me." It's not too difficult to be the second Segovia, I mean in terms of playing. ”

"But it's a little bit more difficult to get past Segovia."

"Years ago, I had hoped that Williams would surpass me, but now it seems that that wish is still far away."

"You also want to be a virtuoso? It's not too hard to do this with your talent, and with a little bit of luck and chance, you can do it. But is that enough? No, no, no, my child, it's not enough! ”

"Please try to surpass me."

"I'll do everything I can to help you."

"Beyond me, you will become a unique virtuoso in the history of classical guitar. This, my child, is your ultimate goal! ”

The master's voice gradually rang out, and his eyes radiated a strange light, so sharp, so urgent, even ...... That's crazy!

"Piano performance, there is a grandmaster player like Liszt who combines performance and creation; Violin playing, there are also a generation of masters like Paganini who are invincible. ”

"Our classical guitar has not had a recognized master for hundreds of years, which is our biggest regret!"

"My child, I beg you, make this your lifelong goal!"

At this time, the master's eyes were blazing, and he looked directly into Ye Zi's eyes. (To be continued.) )>
