Chapter 390: The Two Heroes

The sound of the piano is powerful and flamboyant, and it seems to carry an indomitable momentum. Octaves of both hands bring out the sonorous timbre of the Steinway Grand Piano without doubt!

Lang Lang's performance is as exaggerated as ever. It is true that the octave of the hands at the beginning requires great strength. But even then, there was no need for the whole body to shake violently. Not to mention that "dramatic" look on his face. This is a unique "Lang Lang style" playing method. For his way of playing, those who like it are highly respected, and those who don't like it are scolded endlessly. As for whether it is good or not, it is a matter of the benevolent and the wise.

But in any case, from the perspective of sound alone, Lang Lang's performance is indeed extremely powerful. To be able to become a world-class master, Lang Lang naturally has his own set, not to mention anything else, this basic skill is very solid.

After this upward journey, Lang Lang's hands were thrown high, his left hand fell to his side very casually, and his right hand made an "invite" gesture to Liu Yufan at the moment of falling.

Liu Yufan had been looking at him, and naturally saw his gesture for the first time. In fact, even without his gesture, Liu Yufan would have been ready to play a long time ago. When two people play a tune, they must be timely in the place of connection, which Lang Lang said, and Liu Yufan also knows. Lang Lang made this gesture, not to remind Liu Yufan, but only a subconscious action under excitement. After all, this way of two people playing the piano against each other has a bit of a "competition" flavor. This gesture of his also contains "I'm done playing, it's your turn." ".

A confident smile rose on the corner of Liu Yufan's mouth, and then he raised his arm and fell towards Steinway's bass range!

This time, he was different from the octave before Lang Lang. The same octave ascends. Liu Yufan's performance instantly doubled the speed! Perform a quick octave with both hands. Make his hands look good. It's so fast that it looks like there's an afterimage!

In Lang Lang's position, he naturally couldn't see Liu Yufan's performance, but just when he heard the sound, he could already imagine the performance of Liu Yufan's hands on the keys.

"Hmm. It's not bad, it seems that the opponent that Director Meng found me has two hits. I can put this quick octave of both hands to pop such a taste. This guy also put a lot of hard work on the piano. It's a pity that there is still a little more academy atmosphere, too regular, and no passion. Lang Lang listened to Liu Yufan's piano. Taste it in your heart.

Indeed, as he said. Although Liu Yufan's octave in this section is perfect, it is only technical. Regarding performance, Liu Yufan is indeed a little worse than Lang Lang just now, or rather, a little worse in "passion". Although his hands were also running quickly on the piano keys, it seemed that the range of movement was much smaller than that of Lang Lang. Of course. It should have been played like this. If you can get the sound you want with a small range of motion, why do you have to increase the range of motion? Liu Yufan at the moment. It was only the forearm that moved quickly, but the elbows up were so steady that even when playing such a large melody that spanned almost all the keys, his upper body did not move significantly. If this is changed to Lang Lang, I am afraid it will be turned into mid-air.

The right hand "pumped" violently in the high register, which is a falling action, which is the basic technique of the piano, but here, Liu Yufan used the speed of a whip to play the chord that was played when it was lifted, and played a strong note like a golden stone! The feeling of being bright and solid is like a beautiful firework blooming in the night sky!

"Beautiful! This treble is strong, I like it, it seems that this guy is not completely indulging in his own playing, haha, those old guys in the academy don't play the piano like this. Lang Lang thought as he quickly climbed the keys with both hands, and once again picked up the melody that Liu Yufan had just said, and began to play gorgeously! ..., the same speed, but more incongruous chords than just now, Lang Lang's eyes were firmly fixed on his hands, and his mouth was constantly muttering something. Looking at the shape of his mouth, it seems that what he is talking about is not a sheet music, but a rhythm similar to "boom boom", probably he is using this way to make himself more excited.

It was also a very strong and loud treble chord that bounced from under his hand, and Lang Lang's right arm was thrown up sharply, drawing a large arc in the air, and throwing it directly to the side and back of the body, extremely flamboyant!

Subsequently, Liu Yufan also moved.

The two people sitting opposite each other coincidentally, four pairs of hands quickly ran on the piano keys, and a loud and rapid sound stream like a flood of raging waves flowed out from under the hands of the two people at the same time!

With the end of that sound flow, a more rapid and powerful symphony suddenly came from the stereo, and the first section of "Defending the Yellow River" officially began!

Lang Lang took the lead in playing the piano, his hands as if equipped with powerful springs, short and powerful undulating on the keys, playing the classic melody of "Defending the Yellow River".

"The wind is roaring, the horses are barking, the Yellow River is roaring, the Yellow River is roaring, and the hills in Hexi are ...... high" This powerful melody has a very strong appeal, so that with Lang Lang's performance, many audiences in the audience sang quietly.

Immediately after, with the end of Lang Lang's performance, Liu Yufan also played the piano in front of him accurately, and his right hand "trotted" on the keys, bringing up a string of gorgeous and light arpeggios, and then began to play weakly on a higher octave.

The wrist rose and fell leisurely and lightly, without using a weak pedal, only relying on the control of the wrist, Liu Yufan played the melody of "Defending the Yellow River" again with much weaker strength than just now.

This melody is in stark contrast to the performance just now. If Lang Lang's performance just now is like the scene of many revolutionary pioneers, defending the country in full swing, shouting and fighting, then Liu Yufan's performance at this moment is like many vigilant guerrillas, lurking in the mountains and reeds, fighting guerrillas out of nowhere. It's just that although the music is very weak, it exudes a low, powerful, and flexible flavor, as if there is a very strong skeleton supporting him.

This performance is more "skillful" than Lang Lang's performance just now. Those who play the piano know that playing the piano and singing are the same truth, both of which are "easy to play strong and difficult to play weak". Weak notes, more visible to the player's control over dynamics. Otherwise, the English name of the piano would not be "piano", which means "weak" in Chinese. The use of "weak" as the name of the piano instead of strong means that weak performance skills are more difficult than "strong".

Listening to Liu Yufan's performance, Lang Lang also nodded secretly. This guy's skills are not picky, and he has already blended them together. This aroused his desire to challenge even more!

After this weak play, Lang Lang took over the piano performance again, this time, he started the strong again at a position four degrees higher than just now, and at the end of each phrase, he used a strong rhythm with dots to express a more enthusiastic and excited mood!

This section of the piano between the two of them can be said to be extremely exciting. Although it was only a selection, the actors and staff in the audience watched it with relish one by one.

One is full of energy, the other is calm and free, and the sound of the piano under the two people echoes each other, each with its own characteristics, and the classic "Defending the Yellow River" is interpreted very wonderfully!

After an extremely discordant melody, the whole music suddenly turned into the main theme of "Dongfang Hong". Suddenly, accompanied by the magnificent symphony, Liu Yufan and Lang Lang made efforts at the same time, and played the strongest note of FFF in Steinway, and played the classic melody of "Dongfang Hong" deafeningly! ..., the two Steinway triangles, emitting a huge sound, that loud, gorgeous, atmospheric feeling, like an overwhelming tide, surging in all directions, filling every corner. The music was so exciting that everyone in the listener couldn't help but tremble slightly along with the rhythm of the music. Some old actors from that era were even more excited to tears! If music has colors, then the sound of the piano at this moment is like a sea of red! That kind of warm emotion, infecting everyone who hears it, makes them unable to do it themselves!

After a song, Liu Yufan and Lang Lang's arms were thrown up in both directions, which was the reaction after using up the instantaneous explosive power of the whole body. Under such a strong performance, the Steinway piano burst out with the strongest sound, and the entire "Defending the Yellow River" also ended at this highest point!

Whether it is Liu Yufan or Lang Lang, the spirits of both of them are in an extreme excitement at the moment. It's like working together to complete a great work, and the experience of being experienced is absolutely indescribable!

Almost at the same time, the two of them stood up from the piano and looked at each other, both with a smile on their faces!

Heroes cherish heroes! At this moment, the eyes of the two people looking at each other were filled with the same emotion - war intent!

That's right, a talented pianist is lonely unless he meets a genius who is as good as himself. For Liu Yufan and Lang Lang, each other is another genius in their hearts!

A wave of applause rang out from the audience, which was given by the actors and staff who participated in the audition. Such a wonderful performance naturally deserves their applause.

"Yes, yes, this combination is really good." Meng Xin also applauded with the flow of people, looking at these two young people, she was very satisfied. Naturally, in front of the name of the double piano "Defending the Yellow River", it was also honored to draw a heavy "stroke".
