Chapter 165: A Cruel Blow
Li Li played it "lively" enough, but in the eyes of An Quantao and Liu Yufan, it became a "farce".
After frowning and listening to Li Li play "Revolution", Liu Yufan felt that his ears had been abused for more than two minutes. If these sisters can "spoil" a good etude like this, they can be regarded as "talents".
If he played the revolution like this, would Mo Yan be so angry that he kicked his ass? Liu Yufan thought in his heart, and a smile appeared in the corner of his eye. I haven't been to see Mo Yan for a long time, and in two days after the school holiday, I have to go and see it myself.
finally endured listening to Li Li's "Revolution", looking at the excited expressions on the faces of those people outside the piano room, and the cheers from time to time, Liu Yufan shook his head slightly. He is now beginning to examine himself, whether it was a mistake to listen to Mo Yan's words and finish formal high school in a proper manner.
In this place, there is no music at all, people are just making noise. After staying for a long time, he wondered if he would be taken away.
"It's your turn." Listening to the cheers outside, Li Li had a slight smug look on her face. "Revolutionary Etudes", this is one of the most difficult pieces in the piano etude, which can be played in concerts. Those two guys are stupid. Especially the guy who looked like a stinky fart at the beginning, he was fascinated, hehe.
Li Li thought about it, feeling a little funny.
Meng Jingjing looked at the two of them, the expression on his face was also like a smile, and teased: "What's the matter, it's stupid, this is Chopin's "Revolutionary Etudes", have you heard it?" Forget it, it's useless to talk to the two of you, it is estimated that the two of you haven't even passed the ninth level. ”
"Hey, that's amazing." Seeing the two women's faces, An Quan smiled angrily, looked at the two girls sarcastically and said, "Don't think that you are from an art class, you just have no one in your eyes all day long." Over level 9? What's that? Isn't it remarkable? Can you play "Revolution" like this, and you are embarrassed to show off? I don't know which teacher taught it, shame on you! ”
An Quantao's sarcastic words directly made the two women who felt good about themselves just now!
"Yo, it looks like you're going to play this tune too. Come on, come on, don't just stand there and talk without backache, show us a hand? Meng Jingjing listened to An Quantao's words, and was so angry that her face was extremely ugly, and she pointed to the piano and said provocatively. You must know that this "Revolution" etude, even if it is her, she can't play it. Although she has also passed the ninth level of piano, in terms of level, she is still a little worse than Li Li. Now that these two people have listened to Li Li's performance, they still have an expression of "but so", and even feel that it is not very good, she feels that these two people are also pretending to be a little too much.
Please, if you don't know the goods, just say it. Playing "Revolution" like this? Why don't you play it for a while?
"Hehe, don't worry. The real master is here, Yufan is here, where is my turn? An Quantao said, but set his eyes on Liu Yufan. Although the two daughters were taught a lesson, it was enough to have him. But he still wants to see Liu Yufan make a move, not for anything else, but he especially wants to see him play the piano. Every time I watch him play the piano, An Quantao can have a new understanding of the piano. A few days ago, he went to Yanjing for another class, and even Teacher Yin praised him for his rapid progress during this time. An Quan didn't say anything, but he knew in his heart that this was Liu Yufan's credit.
"Hehe, the two of them are still holding it, it doesn't matter, any of you can come, as long as you can play to the level of Sister Li, I, Meng Jingjing, write the name upside down!" Meng Jingjing said loudly.
Looking at the two girls, Liu Yufan shook his head, then stood next to the piano and said: "Originally, I didn't want to compete with you, the piano is for appreciation, not for competition, I hope you can understand this truth in the future." ”
As he spoke, he pulled out the piano bench, sat in front of the piano, looked at Li Li, and said very seriously: "I'll give you another piece of advice, don't try to surpass your own level of tunes easily, or step by step." ”
With that, he turned to face the piano, and his arms were raised and naturally landed on the keys.
"Zheng!" A loud horn-like ninth chord sounded, and at the same time, the left hand descended with great speed, bringing up a string of arpeggios on the keys like a river!
"Revolutionary Etudes"!
The same song, but at this moment, under Liu Yufan's hands, it is completely different!
When Li Li played before, although her left hand played fast, it was fast and slow, and the strength of each note was uneven, some light and some loud. It may not sound like much to the uninitiated, but if you listen to it as a professional musician, it is simply "unpleasant".
But at this moment, the same song, under Liu Yufan's hands, has a completely different taste.
The speed is slightly faster than what Li Li played before, but it is not very fast, it is the nominal speed of the song. What is rare is that although it is fast, the performer's subordinates have a calm and unhurried taste.
Moreover, Li Li's left hand was on the keys before, which can be described as "opening teeth and dancing claws", with her fingers flying and her arms also rising and falling. But look at Liu Yufan now, that left hand looks like a light tanuki, dancing gracefully and smartly on the smooth keys. I didn't see much movement in my fingers, but every movement had a taste of precision and simplicity, and I didn't seem to waste a little more effort.
In contrast, the movement of the right hand is very large, and when it encounters those strong chords, it is directly the whole arm on the keys, and the sound sounds really like gold and iron, and it is extremely resolute! If the sound flow of the left hand is like an endless flow of people, then the chords of the right hand are like a red flag waving in the crowd, which is so dazzling! It's like a leader standing at the top and shouting, announcing to the people that he wants to break all shackles!
Under Liu Yufan's hands, this "Revolution" etude became vivid, and everyone who heard this song seemed to feel the unstoppable momentum of the revolutionary torrent and the steel chords that seemed to be like a shout!
If you are not afraid of not knowing the goods, you are afraid of comparing goods. With the comparison of "Revolution" played by Liu Yufan at this moment, and thinking about the song played by Li Li just now, people shook their heads in their hearts. Compared to what, there is no comparable surname at all!
Even if these people are amateurs, they can hear the difference between two people, and it is not appropriate to describe this gap as an adult and a child, it is simply a heaven and an earth, the difference is too far!
"This is the real "Revolution" etude!" Watching Liu Yufan's performance, An Quantao looked enjoyable. He also played this tune, and there were no technical problems. But if you want to pop Liu Yufan's taste, An Quantao is self-inflicted. He had heard his teacher play the piece, and frankly, at his level, he couldn't hear the difference.
"Could it be that this guy's current level has reached the same height as the teacher?" Ahn thought to himself, and at the same time was taken aback by his own thoughts.
His own teacher is one of the best masters in the Chinese piano world. This guy is about the same age as himself, so he can't reach that level anyway.
Anyway, this guy's level is much higher than his own, which is a fact that An Quantao has admitted in his heart. He was convinced.
An Quantao's performance was better, at least he could listen to Liu Yufan's performance with an appreciative attitude, while the others, like the students who selected it, fell directly into a petrified state!
You must know that Liu Yufan's level at the moment, even if he directly performs on the professional stage, it is not much hotter, so how shocking is it for these people to watch such a superb performance up close, for them amateur piano lovers?
Liu Yufan's eyes were slightly closed, his lips were pursed lightly, and the expression on his face was serious and focused. When he entered the state of playing, he had no other thoughts in his heart, no competition, no desire to win, some were just the realm of music, he was playing the piano, and he was enjoying the performance. This can only be achieved under the premise of being familiar with a piece of music!
"Revolutionary Etudes" is a well-known work among piano etudes and is a famous piece. For such a tune, when Mo Yan taught Liu Yufan to play, he put much more effort than ordinary tunes. Because it is a famous song, there are many people who play it, and there are many people who listen to it, and it is not easy to play it well, but it can be easily heard if there is a problem, so the more such a song, the more you must not be sloppy, and you must strive for excellence.
As for being like Li Li, purely because she likes this song, regardless of her physical level, she forcibly practices it, but she can only delay herself. Once many mistakes are made, it is difficult to correct them even if you are good enough to play the piece in the future.
Throwing his arms in the high register of the keys in a dashing manner, he quickly descended at the same time, bringing up an unstoppable stream of sound, and then, after two heavy chords, Liu Yufan ended the whole piece neatly!
Standing up from the piano, Liu Yufan turned to look at Li Li and Meng Jingjing, at this moment, the two of them were full of shock, and they couldn't say anything.
"Impossible, how is it possible? How can it be? He's just a general class, a student in a piano group, how can he play to this extent? Li Li shouted frantically in her heart, her eyes full of disbelief.
Meng Jingjing was no better, looking at Liu Yufan, a boy with a calm face, but at this moment, it was like a towering mountain, towering in front of her.
Looking at Li Li with a disgraced face, Meng Jingjing was a little glad that it was not her who played just now, and at the same time a little sympathetic to Li Li. She understood how hard Li Li was hit at this moment, and the feeling of going from heaven to hell in an instant could not be understood without experiencing it herself.
Seeing that the two girls were silent, and then looking at the many onlookers outside the piano room with fanatical eyes, Liu Yufan shook his head and walked straight to the door of the piano room.
Everywhere they passed, people automatically moved out of the way, and at the same time, those people consciously made a "gaze salute" to Liu Yufan, as if looking at a god.
That's right, in the eyes of these piano students, the level that Liu Yufan showed just now is almost a miracle!
Out of the piano room, Liu Yufan saw Peng Tielin standing quietly opposite, his steps paused, and his face showed an embarrassed look.
"Teacher Peng, I'm sorry, I didn't want to compare." Liu Yufan knew that his move had greatly damaged the confidence of these piano students, but this was really not his intention.
"Yu Fan, needless to say, they brought it on themselves." Peng Tielin said, looking at Liu Yufan, his face showed a look of relief. won, but there is no pride in it, which shows that this child's cultivation is also excellent.
"Yufan, don't think about anything else, prepare well and strive to get a good result in the competition!" Peng Tielin said encouragingly.
"Well, Mr. Peng, I'll do my best." Liu Yufan nodded and said seriously.
