Chapter 202: Super Technique "Chasing Snow"

Liu Yufan's variation completely shocked the audience!

At the beginning, not many people can see the mystery of the variations of the three-part creative piece, but the sonata-style accompaniment in the back has made many people addicted, even parents who don't know the piano can listen to it with relish, and the piano is so handsome!

Shi Shucheng naturally commented in person, and gave a very high evaluation. The score of 99.20 points also made Liu Yufan deservedly the first in the field.

Naturally, this result also caused great pressure on the players behind him.

When Liu Yufan walked off the stage, he could obviously see the eyes of other contestants, there was envy, jealousy, and admiration...... Among the many complex looks, only one gaze was full of appreciation.

"Yufan, that's good." Mo Xi, the iceberg beauty, nodded at Yufan with a rare smile. The variation just now, she also nodded again and again. Especially the technique of transposing the tone in the back, it can be seen that she, the "proud girl of the sky" of the piano, is also wonderful!

There is no shortage of geniuses at the Curtis Institute of Music, but even so, in Mo Xi's eyes, Liu Yufan's piano skills are also extremely good.

"Hehe, thank you!" Seeing Mo Xi's encouraging eyes, Liu Yufan nodded at her with a smile.

The game continued, and Liu Yufan also returned to the audience from the side of the stage.

As soon as he came back, Mo Yan, Ma Hua, Jiang Ya and others gave him a thumbs up, because it was a game, several people didn't speak loudly, but looking at their expressions, they were obviously extremely satisfied with Liu Yufan's performance just now.

In Dazhai Village, a hundred miles away, the family is watching the "live broadcast" as usual, and these days, watching the Yufan competition has become the top priority of the family. Liu Jianjun has no time to watch it when he has to go to work, so he has to ask his wife Chu Qing to record it with a video recorder and go home to watch the replay.

Seeing that his son had scored so high at this moment, Chu Qing smiled very happily, and Liu Xiaoran jumped and jumped even more happily.

"Mom, my brother is too good, 99.20 points, I will definitely get the first place" Xiaoran said excitedly.

"Hehe, look at it, I can't say certainly, maybe there will be something powerful in the back." Although Chu Qing said so, looking at his confident appearance, he obviously agreed with his daughter's words.

The game is still ongoing, but with Liu Yufan's wonderful performance, there will be no bright spots for the players behind to play again.

Mo Yan's expression had been very nervous, eagerly waiting to hear that name.

In fact, Yu Fan wanted to tell him that he had just seen Mo Xi in the backstage, but he thought that Mo Xi was going to compete on stage in a while, and if Mo Yan found the backstage at this time, it would inevitably affect her competition. If the two of them really have anything to do with each other, it's not bad at this time. Thinking so in his heart, Yu Fan also suppressed his thoughts about talking to Mo Yan.

"Next, let's invite No. 15 contestant Mo Xi, the repertoire she brought to the competition is, Liszt's Super Etude No. 12, "Chasing the Snow" As soon as Jiajia's words fell, Mo Xi, who was wearing a black dress, walked onto the stage.

When he saw Mo Xi's face clearly, Mo Yan's breathing suddenly became rapid, and at the same time, the hands on the armrests of the chair suddenly clenched into fists!

"Mo Xi, Mo Xi!" Mo Yan repeated these two words in a low voice, his tone trembled, his eyes blinked, obviously he was extremely excited in his heart.

Several people discovered Mo Yan's unusualness for the first time, how could they not understand when they saw this, it seems that the relationship between this Mo Xi and Mo Yan is really not ordinary, and it may even be...... Seeing that Mo Yan was about to leave his seat and rushed to the stage, Jiang Ya glanced at Yufan, and the two of them hurriedly persuaded him.

"Teacher Mo, don't worry, Mo Xi is competing." Yu Fan hurriedly reminded.

"Yes, Mo Lao, when the game is over in a while, let's go backstage to find her together, don't bother her at this time." Jiang Ya also comforted beside her.

After listening to the words of the two, Mo Yan gradually quieted down, but he was obviously confused, and just subconsciously repeated: "Okay, good~~"

Peng Tielin looked at this abnormal old man a little strangely, he didn't know Mo Yan, but seeing that Yu Fan and Jiang Ya both respected him so much, he could guess that the other party's identity was not ordinary. It's just that he doesn't know people well, and it's inconvenient for him to go up to say hello.

It's just that An Quantao looked a little excited. Hearing Yu Fan and Jiang Ya both calling him "Teacher Mo", how could An Quantao not guess the identity of this old man? I think it's the teacher who taught Yu Fan, a perverted master. If it weren't for the fact that he was at the scene of the competition at the moment, An Quantao would almost have an impulse to apprentice immediately. Thinking that Yu Fan's piano practice is so perverted, An Quantao's heart is itching, and he can't wait for himself to become so powerful.

Mo Xi sat down in front of the piano, adjusted the piano bench slightly, put his hands on the keys, and began to play.

There are 12 pieces in the Liszt Super Technique Etude series, each of which is the pinnacle of piano etudes! It's difficult enough to daunt any professional pianist! Only those who are truly skilled pianists will be able to master his work!

This "Chasing the Snow" is the last of Liszt's twelve super piano etudes, don't look at its music is very soft, but when it comes to playing, the skill required is not ordinarily high!

His hands rose and fell slightly on the keys, and a soft sound came from it, which seemed so quiet.

The little finger of the right hand is like a picturesque theme, while the other fingers quickly play a fine harmony. The chords in the left hand are also low and urgent, the background chords seem to outline a somewhat gray sky background, and the simple main theme brought out by the little finger of the right hand is like a snowflake falling in the sky, which is extremely charming.

The song is very quiet and beautiful, but Mo Xi is not easy to play.

Don't be fooled by the appearance of the song, if you see the score, I'm afraid the performer won't have the idea that the music is so quiet. The crazy jumping notes on the staff are enough to make a pianist with poor psychological quality have a heart attack!

Yes, Liszt has always liked to play the piano as a "symphony", so many of his scores are fundamentally contrary to normal playing habits and human physiology. For example, in the same beat, he will write the main melody, broken chords, low chords and sub-bass bass four voices, so that although the most rich musical effect can be obtained, don't forget that the person who plays the piano only has two hands, and what kind of technique is required to do the work of four hands at the same time!

He doesn't think about these things when he writes the music, only the fullness and harmony of the sound, but the person who plays it has to think about it. So you can see that the person who plays Liszt's etudes often moves his hands up and down the keys at a rapid pace, not in the kind of movement that rises high and then falls, but in parallel movements that are completely attached to the keys! This kind of movement is quite physically demanding, so it is not uncommon to see some pianists who play Liszt's etudes sweat like rain after playing two or three pieces, which is a sign of physical exhaustion!

At this moment, Mo Xi is in such a situation.

Her hands moved swiftly on the keys, "as still as a virgin, as if moving like a rabbit", each movement, like a precise machine, accurately moving to the key to be played, and then her fingers began to play dense notes without stopping, often only a few times, and then quickly moved to another place one octave or two octaves away, to play another part, which was really busy.

What's even more difficult is the control of the dynamics, one hand moves quickly, but also clearly uses the dynamics to distinguish the chords and main themes, and it is also necessary to maintain the coherence of each other and the continuity of each other, which is really difficult to do!

Shi Shucheng listened quietly, nodding his head gently from time to time. Among the outstanding players who emerged in this Jianghai Cup, except for Liu Yufan, this Mo Xi left the deepest impression on him. The students trained by the Curtis Institute of Music are really extraordinary, the performance is very atmospheric and beautiful, this "Sigh" is played very well, in Shi Shucheng's view, he has touched the threshold of professional pianists, and the child in front of him must have participated in international competitions.

After a beautiful song "Sigh", Mo Xi stood up and bowed to the audience and the judges, and the warm applause immediately rang out.

Without a pause, Mo Xi quickly chose an improvisational question and began to improvise again.

Mo Xi drew this piece, it is a Russian-style harmonic minor work, and her variations are also the standard conservatory practice techniques, but compared with the previous contestants, her performance seems quite old and mature, although it is not as amazing as Liu Yufan, but it is enough to satisfy the judges!

Seeing that Mo Xi had finished his performance, and Shi Shucheng was commenting, Mo Yan couldn't hold back any longer, stood up suddenly, and ran to the backstage, and even when he stood up, others could hear the rough breath in his mouth!

Jiang Ya glanced at Yu Fan, and the two of them stood up one after the other and walked behind Mo Yan.

"You two are optimistic about Lao Mo, I won't go." The second uncle, Ma Hua, told the two people.

"Well, okay second uncle, don't worry, we will take care of Teacher Mo." Liu Yufan turned around and said to the second uncle, Ma Hua.

Mo Xi smiled when he heard the final score of 99.10 points, and nodded to the judges and the audience, obviously recognizing this result. Although it is 0.10 points lower than that Liu Yufan, he is indeed more skilled, and Mo Xi, who is also a professional, knows it in his heart.

After bowing to the audience and the judges again to thank him, Mo Xi walked backstage.

"Pedal Pedal Pedal T There was a rush of footsteps, and several people appeared in the background.

In the surprised eyes of the contestants, Mo Yan just stood in the center of the room, looking at Mo Xi who was walking towards him, staring at her with his eyes fixed!

seemed to feel Mo Yan's gaze, Mo Xi also looked over here, and at this look, her gaze could no longer be taken away!
