"Boom!" The hands fell with sheer force at a height of about twenty centimeters from the keys. At the moment of touching the key, the fingers are firmly propped on the keys, and the piano makes a strong sound!

This is Beethoven's piano sonata, different from Bach's delicate and gorgeous, this piece comes up with a very bright and brilliant feeling, and there is a faint sense of wanton wildness!

If Bach's music is like an elegant aristocratic dance, everything is so polite, everything is so calm, then Beethoven's piano sonata is a rhythmic romantic and free, emotional unrestrained dance of the soul, unfettered and arbitrary. The two are like ice and fire, still and moving, and they are not a musical feeling at all.

After the start of an extremely strong G major, the right hand suddenly becomes light and quickly makes a short arpeggiation in place, and this contrast between strong and weak abounds in Beethoven's sonatas. From the previous extremely strong, to the current extremely weak, it sounds like a heavy door has suddenly been pushed open, and then it is "probing the brain" to take a sneak look, for fear of disturbing something.

The right hand began to ascend with a short double note, as if gradually letting go, jumping on the ground, and then marching again to the higher high register, and the song gradually became brighter!

Compared with the previous piece, when playing this Beethoven sonata, Liu Yufan's body movements are obviously bigger, and when playing strong chords, his back will be very straight, like a fighter to move forward! And when playing the weakest parts, his upper body will bend slightly, close to the keys, and sometimes his head will be turned to the side, as if listening to the subtle sound. Strong and weak, this pair of clear contrasts has been fully demonstrated under Liu Yufan!

From beginning to end, Liu Yufan looked at the keys no more than ten times, mostly listening to his own performance. This is a performance that will only occur after mastering the tune to perfection, obviously, playing this piece is already Liu Yufan's subconscious action. He didn't have to pay even a little attention to his technique, all his attention was on listening to his own playing.

Being able to practice this piece so well has something to do with Liu Yufan's love for this piece. It seems that he has a fate with Beethoven, the first time he came into contact with this piece, Liu Yufan liked it, the melody is always so straightforward and direct to the heart, never willing to be stable, always full of struggle, can let him keep the passion from beginning to end when playing, this is really a wonderful enjoyment!

Like the previous two pieces, the two judges of this piece still did not interrupt Liu Yufan and let him play from beginning to end. However, Liu Yufan is very grateful to the two judges. To be honest, when playing this sonata, he was reluctant to be interrupted, which made him feel very disrespectful to the composer, and at the same time, it also made him feel that the musical image was very incomplete and had a very uncomfortable feeling.

"This kid knows this song so well!" Although Xie Li's face was expressionless, she was shocked in her heart. If Liu Yufan's performance in the first two pieces is still "better" in her heart, then his performance in the sonata just now really makes Xie Li unable to find any fault. To be honest, purely in terms of this piece, Liu Yufan's level has exceeded the requirements of the ordinary examination, and I believe that even if he performs on stage or competes, this proficiency is enough!

Of course, the piece itself is also very simple, because this sonata is called Beethoven's shortest sonata, and some people even jokingly call it a "little sonata", so if you really participate, not many people will choose this piece. If this were not the case, it would not have been designated as a sixth-grade piece, and in the sixth-grade Beethoven's piano sonata, I am afraid that there would be no other one to pick apart.

The last one, Debussy's "Little Negro".

This is Liu Yufan's least cold-hearted song. If the second Bach still makes him feel a little fun and achievement, then Liu Yufan is completely confused about this impressionist piano piece. Although Jiang Ya also introduced a lot of knowledge about Debussy when she told him, and talked about many essentials that need to be paid attention to when playing Debussy's works, this still can't make Liu Yufan like this kind of "thing", it is too abstract. In Liu Yufan's opinion, those sentences are completely incomprehensible. Although Jiang Ya is trying to make him feel the "colors" in the song, to be honest, even if Liu Yufan is asked to look at those abstract paintings, he can't figure out what the meaning of those colors is.

What a pain!

No matter what, Liu Yufan still practiced it, just for the exam. Fortunately, although the song is very "abstract", the technical requirements are really not too difficult, and it is much simpler than Bach's two-part creative song.

After playing all four pieces in an orderly manner, Liu Yufan turned to look at the two judges, he knew that according to the convention, the jury gave him some comments.

"The basic skills are still relatively solid, and the music performance is okay, but we must pay attention to controlling the speed, sometimes it's not just fast, and there is the level of polyphony, we must further deduct it carefully, okay, that's it, Liu Yufan." The female judge said a few words briefly, signaling that he could leave.

"That's it?" Although he felt that the judges said a little little, Liu Yufan also knew that it was not good to ask too many questions on this occasion, so he had to nod to the two judges and turned around and walked out of the examination room.

As soon as Liu Yufan came out of the examination room, the two judges bowed their heads and discussed.

"Zhang Heng, what do you think?" Xie Li turned to the side and asked the glasses brother next to her gently.

The man with glasses, who had not spoken, smiled faintly and said, "You can do it, I have no opinion." ”

"Okay, then I'll tick it." Shelly said, scribbling lightly on the paper, and then sighed with a seemingly regretful sigh.

The next candidate entered the room, and Xie Li seemed a little interested, listened hastily, and let him out. But the little boy was pardoned, and went out without even listening to the comments, and when he got outside, there was a shout of joy: "Oh! It's finally over. ”

As soon as Liu Yufan went out, he saw Jiang Ya and Chen Siying waiting outside, as well as several other classmates, and greeted everyone with a nod of their heads, Jiang Ya asked with concern, "How is it, Yufan?" What did the examiner say? ”

"The woman said that the basic skills are relatively solid, and the musical performance is okay, that is, I play a little fast, and the polyphonic tunes are not fine enough." Liu Yufan simply repeated the examiner's comments.

"Didn't say anything else?" Jiang Ya asked with some confusion.

"Well~~ It's gone, that's all." Liu Yufan thought about it and said.

"By the way, why have you been in for so long, it's almost up to three other people's time." Jiang Ya asked a little strangely.

"I've played all four tunes." Liu Yufan said with a smile.

"Every piece is played from beginning to end? The examiner didn't call a stop? Even Chen Siying felt strange at this time. When she first played the electronic piano, she only played a short paragraph, and the judges refused to let her play, and said many words of encouragement to her. Unexpectedly, Liu Yufan finished playing all the tunes.

"Hehe, maybe the judges think you played well. Okay, don't think about it, I've already finished the exam anyway, and with your level, there should be no problem in passing the test. It's almost noon, let's go out to eat something, your brother Dong has already booked the restaurant, and I'll take you to sing karaoke after eating. Jiang Ya said with a smile.

"Okay." After the exam, Liu Yufan was also in a relaxed mood, he had been practicing at high intensity during this time, and he was really tired, just to relax and change his brain.

A few people walked and chatted, and slowly walked out of the gate of the art school, there were still many candidates waiting for the exam outside, looking at this lively scene, Liu Yufan was a little emotional.

"There are really a lot of people who take the exam, it seems that the charm of art is indeed great!"

"Hehe, Yufan, you, don't be in a hurry to sigh. In fact, many people take the exam, not because they like music, most of them are the wishes of their parents, and some are not very good at learning and want to go to a good school with music expertise, in short, there are many reasons. Of course, there are also people like you who learn because they like it, Yufan, stick to it. Jiang Ya encouraged.

"Well, I know, sister." Liu Yufan said with a smile.

Chen Siying walked behind the two of them, listening to Liu Yufan's affectionate call of "sister", and she was very unhappy. secretly grimaced at Liu Yufan behind his back and kicked him virtually.

"Ahh A terrible cry suddenly came from the crowd in front of them, which immediately attracted the attention of several people.

From a distance, looking more than twenty meters in front, a middle-aged woman was holding a little girl, crying bitterly, and many people surrounded her.

"Look what's going on." Jiang Ya said, and also ran over with two people.

"Yaoyao, what are you doing here?" The middle-aged woman said with a crying voice, and at the same time held the child's hand tightly, and a large amount of blood gushed out from between her fingers, which looked extremely shocking!

"Mom, Mom, I don't want to practice, I don't want to take exams! Woo~~~" The little girl has two pigtails, and her round little face looks very cute, but at the moment she looks sad, and her left hand is still holding a knife tightly!

Seeing such a situation, the onlookers were stunned.

"Yaoyao, Mom and Dad have invested so much in your piano practice, why can't you understand your parents' hard work? After practicing the piano, you can perform on stage in the future, and you can also win awards and become stars, how good. The woman kept persuading her daughter, but the little face with tears only shook her head, and only repeated one sentence in her mouth: "I don't want to practice, I hate it!" ”

"Eldest sister, you can wrap the child's hand first, give it to you, I have a band-aid here." In the crowd of onlookers, a kind mother handed over a few band-aids.

"Thank you!" The woman took the band-aid and immediately took out a wet towel from her bag to clean the child's wound, and then everyone saw that the child had cut the belly of the right index finger with a knife, although the wound was not large, but it was very deep. Thinking that the child was forced to be like this because he didn't want to practice, the onlookers shook their heads and sighed.

"Yaoyao, let's go home first." The woman left with the child in her arms, and the onlookers were still talking about what had just happened.

"Hey, don't practice if the child doesn't want to practice, look at the child who is forced!"

"You can't say that, what do children know when they are so young, and adults have to watch them when they practice. Tens of thousands of pianos have been bought, and if you don't practice, you won't practice! ”

"What to do here still depends on the child's interest!"

……

Listening to everyone's discussions, Liu Yufan also fell into deep thought.
