Chapter 298: Living Music
The big and little fingers of the left hand, the thick fingers are close to the keys, the wrist trembles slightly, and a muddy sound flows out of the piano, faintly with a sense of uneasiness and excitement!
"Narrative Song of Northern Henan", composed by composer Liu Wenjin in 1958. Through the contrasting development of the two themes, the music expresses the essential changes in the spiritual outlook of the people in northern Henan before and after liberation. This is a well-known erhu song, and it is also a very difficult one.
In a voiced stream of notes with painful emotions, Liu Yufan's right hand went up several consecutive octaves, and suddenly played a resolute theme!
The sound of the piano, like struggling in the dark, with an unyielding will in pain, makes people feel refreshed!
Feeling the power contained in this piano sound, the faces of more than 1,000 listeners also changed to a solemn expression! In the face of such music, no one can show a relaxed and happy expression!
Naumov looked at Liu Yufan in front of the piano, the musical phrases were almost word by word, which was completely different from the majestic atmosphere he showed yesterday, the sound of the piano was rich, as if it contained too much suffering and depression. His face showed astonishment, and he couldn't understand how a child who was not yet twenty years old could play music with such deep feelings!
"It's unbelievable that the indomitable will and the description of suffering contained in this music are so profound!" Naumov exclaimed in his heart
The resonant Da Stanwei, under Liu Yufan's almost all two-hand octave touch keys, showed his colorful timbre to the greatest extent. This opening piano introduction, like a huge epic, presents a thick history in front of people.
Although there are no words, all the listeners feel the emotions contained in the music and the emotions it wants to express!
Listening to this familiar prelude, Chen Siying's heart instantly fell as if it had been impacted! The same melody, listening to her ears at the moment, has a completely different feeling. Liu Yufan's piano sound seems to have a magical power, and those melodies sound to her, as if they are full of life, and instantly bring them into the artistic conception described in the song!
The sound of the piano correction turned from passionate to calm, and there was a soft rhythm of two eight beats, and Chen Siying was also ready to play.
A burst of erhu, like a whispered voice, was so plain and bland, naturally flowing out of Chen Siying's hands and drifting into the ears of the audience.
Like a woman who has experienced countless hardships, she sits on a wicker chair that has accompanied her through countless years, and slowly tells the listener about the unbearable years.
The erhu voice is soft, delicate and tough, and the connection between each sentence is so smooth and natural, without the slightest jerkiness. Listening to the sound of the erhu, it is like someone really sitting in front of you and talking to you, it takes your thoughts, travels through historical time and space, and expresses that thrilling time in peace.
Peaceful and quiet on the outside, strong and resilient on the inside, this is a true portrayal of the character of women in the Cretaceous Kingdom: and this erhu song is a fusion of this and character in those years of deep suffering, and it is profoundly expressed in the language of music.
Chen Siying's wrist is gently pulled and sent, the earstrings are like full of life, and each bow is full of aftertaste, which makes people have endless aftertaste.
Watching their students play on stage, even Song Fei, the erhu player, was a little surprised. Chen Siying was brought out by her, and the little girl's talent is good, but in Song Fei's heart, her skills are enough, but her perception and understanding of music need to be further exercised. Who would have thought that in such an exchange show today, his beloved disciple played at a super level, and faintly had a bit of everyone's taste! ..., Song Fei closed her eyes slightly, listening to this familiar music. This song was played countless times by her, and it was also handed over to Chen Siying by herself, and she was familiar with every detail in it. Now, the familiar melody flowed out of the student's hands, but she couldn't help but savor and chew it. This song, under the treatment of Chen Siying today, has faintly had an independent style and soul, which is very rare.
The sound of the piano is no longer as intense as it was just now, but has turned into a quiet fully decomposed chord, which has become a background sound, gently setting off the song, neither dominating the main story, but also not making the erhu sound too monotonous, and expressing the essence of the word "accompaniment" just right.
After the end of the first theme, the erhu tune turns and enters the repetition again, but it is much higher-pitched, and the added variations also make the mood of the music change again.
The emotions of the narrator suddenly became agitated. And after the variation, the flexibility inside the music also becomes stronger.
Chen Siying's fingers pressed the strings with her left hand, and began to add a large number of kneading strings under the drive of her wrist, which made the long tone of the music no longer monotonous, and had a lot of "strength".
After repeating the first theme again, the erhu sound seemed to weaken, and the piano sound, which had just been almost ignored, began to become restless again.
Following the two tail notes of the erhu just now, the sound of the piano gradually changes from weak to strong, from slow to fast. At the same time, the left hand's fully broken chord has become a brighter semi-broken chord.
The mood of the music has changed radically. The sound of the piano became joyful. The rhythm of the allegro, like a rushing stream, splashes snow-white water, it is the joy of Ichiwa flowing outward from the heart!
After a bright and cheerful bow, the piano sound turns to a rhythmic accompaniment without a main melody. At the same time, the erhu, which had been silent for a moment, beautifully threw out a note and played a more cheerful piece.
This melody, like a piece of golden sunshine, instantly pierced through the dark clouds and sprinkled all over the earth, dispelling some of the heavy emotions before. The joy of the sound of the piano, undisguised, flows out of the strings of the erhu and flows into the hearts of every listener. Through the sound of the piano, people seem to see a neat and beautiful farm yard, see the golden corn on the stone mills in the yard, see the woman sitting under the eaves of their house leisurely doing farm work, showing a satisfied smile, and see the man working in the field, throwing a whip to drive the big livestock, ploughing out a large area of land vigorously, sowing happiness and hope~~
The piano uses a light and elastic semi-decomposed chord accompaniment to create a bright non-main chord accompaniment, which contrasts sharply with the resilient sound of the erhu.
Liu hum, Fan's ten fingers rose and fell briskly on the keys, as if dancing a cheerful dance, looking extremely relaxed. The accompaniment of this section seems to be very fast, but it is actually very simple, for him, he does not even need to look at the keys, he just needs to play according to his heart.
In fact, he didn't look at the accompaniment sheet on the music stand. In many places, he added some modifications to the accompaniment according to his own understanding. However, these changes did not destroy the original appearance of the accompaniment, but made it more lively and more in line with the melody of the erhu. Even Chen Siying didn't feel this, she just felt that today's accompaniment was extraordinarily comfortable, which made her feel that she wanted to pull more and more, and the more she pulled, the more energetic she became.
However, Song Fei, who was on the scene, heard it, and she couldn't help but be a little surprised and turned her gaze from Chen Siying's body to Liu Yufan's body.
In front of the piano, he is relaxed and confident, and every chic key drop action looks so pleasing to the eye. It can be seen that this accompaniment is not difficult for him at all. He can even add some of his own creations with ease, and those innovative parts sound so reasonable to Song Fei, which made the accompaniment that seemed a little rigid and rigid before, suddenly come alive. …,
"This kid is really not simple, and his talent in piano playing is really high. These changes were added by him temporarily, and they played with great aura. Song Fei looked at the big boy with a relaxed face, and his expression was a little dazed for a while. She felt that the other party was not playing accompaniment, but rather a personal piano show. Under his hands, the piano is no longer a dispensable accompaniment instrument, but radiates its own brilliant brilliance!
The music turned sharply, and the erhu sound pulled out a heavy note, mobilizing people's emotions again!
The voice of Gang Yousheng changed from the previous light and lively, adding a large number of octave accents, like a mighty Yangtze River, rushing forward. The erhu once again repeats the first theme at the beginning: only this time, the heavy and sad emotions in it are gone, replaced by passion, high spirits, and indomitable! Under the surging piano accompaniment, the erhu sound also spiraled upward, getting higher and higher!
The stirring six-in-a-row sounded. Liu Yufan's wrist rose and fell, and the sound of the piano from the forest opened and closed, and it was extremely open! And in this surging sound of the piano, the mood of the erhu is also becoming more and more excited, perseverance, and the spirit of "tenacity" is brought into full play!
The sound of the piano weakened again, and finally became inaudible, and in the melodious aftertaste, the music came to a successful end.
Putting away the bow and getting up, Chen Siying turned around and made an inviting gesture to Liu Yufan in front of the piano.
Liu Yufan, who left the piano, came to Chen Siying calmly, with a faint smile on his face, which shows that he is also very satisfied with the performance just now.
The two joined hands and bowed deeply to the audience.
Applause, warm and continuous applause, immediately surrounded the two people!
"It's really beautiful music, it's like they're telling me a story with the sound of the piano, it's great, it's a piece of music with thoughts and life!" Naumov couldn't help but stand up and applaud, while also speaking loudly to the people around him.
Looking at the two of them standing on the stage, like golden boys and girls, Song Fei applauded softly, with a relieved smile on her face. This Chen Siying, oh yes, and that Liu Yufan, the two of them brought her a big surprise today! . )
