Chapter Eighty-Eight: Mo Yan's Piano Lessons

After more than a minute, Mo Yan ended the performance.

It's just that everyone is still standing on the spot, as if they are still reminiscing about the passionate sound of the piano just now!

Mo Yan's performance brought everyone a very strong sense of picture, through the sound of the piano, the listener seemed to really see the angry waves of the Yellow River rushing forward, pouring thousands of miles of momentum, and felt the Yellow River boatman's iron-like arms and waist!

It's just a piano, without any symphony accompaniment, to play a work that was originally a concerto to such an extent, Mo Yan's technique, it's really appalling! For everyone here, Mo Yan's piano skills are like a mountain!

"How? Have you made up your mind? Mo Yan, who got up from the piano, glanced at Liu Yufan, who was standing next to him, and the latter's gaze was still on the keys, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Huh?" was recalled by Mo Yan's words, and Liu Yufan was a little embarrassed. Just after watching Mo Yan's performance, he realized how ridiculous his request was just now!

I actually doubted whether Mo Yan was qualified to be his teacher?

At this level, if you are willing to open the door to accept students, how many piano children will have to cry and shout to the door?

Chance, great chance!

Liu Yufan endured the excitement in his heart, bowed respectfully to Mo Yan, and shouted happily and convincingly: "Teacher Mo!" ”

"Hehe, Yufan, congratulations, you have found a good teacher!" Ma Huaiyuan laughed.

"Yu Fan, Teacher Mo's skills are so good, you must study seriously in the future, and you must cherish this opportunity, understand?" Jiang Ya also reminded a little excitedly. If it weren't for the fact that she was Liu Yufan's teacher, even she would have an impulse to follow this teacher Mo Yan to continue her studies! Compared with Mo Yan's skills, he didn't dare to say that he could play the piano at that level!

"Well, thank you, Teacher Ma, sister, I will learn from Teacher Mo well." Liu Yufan said very seriously.

"Since you agreed, let's take the first lesson with me today." Mo Yan said lightly, and then glanced at the others.

"Oh, Xiaoya, Siying, Yufan is going to class, let's go to my house and sit for a while." When Ma Huaiyuan saw Mo Yan's expression, he immediately came to his senses, went downstairs with a few people, and returned to his home.

Entering the living room, Ma Huaiyuan said with emotion: "I really can't imagine that there will be such a coincidence, hehe, it can be made into a novel." How about Xiaoya, this time I recommended this teacher to Yufan, you are still satisfied. ”

"Satisfied, so satisfied! Hey, Mr. Ma, you know such a powerful character, why didn't you tell me earlier, if I was still young, I also wanted to follow Mr. Mo's class, his skills are simply amazing! Jiang Ya said with some emotion.

"Hehe, did you tell me before? Besides, even if you want to learn, you can't do it, this Teacher Mo only moved here a few years ago, and when he came, you were all in college. Ma Huaiyuan said with a smile.

"Yes, but Mr. Ma, how could such a powerful person be willing to stay in this small place? Just these two moments, which conservatory to put in, not a professor. Jiang Ya asked a little strangely.

"I don't know about this, we don't have much contact, it's just because I also love this, and I went to their house a few times. When I talked to him, he didn't want to say more, maybe there was some kind of hardship. Ma Huaiyuan explained.

"Oh, that's right." Jiang Ya nodded and said, then glanced at Chen Siying, who was following her, and saw that the little girl's interest was not high.

"Hey, Siying, how can it be like losing your soul, is it a little envious to see that Yufan has found such a powerful teacher. Why don't we go talk to Mr. Mo again? Let him take you by the way, okay? Jiang Ya teased Chen Siying.

"Cut, I don't want it, I'll learn from you, that Mo Yan always has a cold face, what's so good." Chen Siying pursed her lips and said with a nonchalant expression.

"Yo, how did I hear such a strong sour smell. Siying, it's okay, practice hard, I think one day, you will also have the opportunity to learn the piano with Teacher Mo. Jiang Ya didn't understand Chen Siying's careful thoughts, patted her head and said.

"No, Mr. Jiang, it's really not what you think." Chen Siying said a little anxiously. In fact, this time, Jiang Ya really misunderstood what she meant, but her true thoughts, how could she tell others?

Liu Yufan found such a good teacher, it stands to reason that she should also be happy, after all, the two seem to be fighting each other, but the relationship is quite "iron", Siying is unhappy, and she also likes to annoy Liu Yufan.

Just thinking that Liu Yufan found such a powerful teacher, his level would definitely improve very quickly in the future, Chen Siying felt that the two of them seemed to be far away, and this feeling made her very uncomfortable.

Not to mention that these people were chatting at Ma Huaiyuan's house, and after everyone was gone, Mo Yan sat down in front of the piano again.

"I just watched your performance, and the basic skills are quite passable, but there are still many problems with the use of strength." Mo Yan said, his hands raised, and he played a chord in G major.

"Dong~~" is still the G major minor sonata played by Liu Yufan just now, but under Mo Yan's hands, the whole timbre seems to be completely different, as if there is something more, but what is more to say, but I can't describe it.

"What is the English name of the piano?" Mo Yan finished playing this chord and didn't continue to play, but asked Liu Yufan a question.

"Piano" Liu Yufan quickly replied, this is a basic common sense, the piano is a Western musical instrument, and I don't even know its foreign name, and I have spent so much time learning the piano.

"Well, what do you mean by piano?" Mo Yan continued to ask.

"It's weak, force term." Liu Yufan's knowledge of music theory is quite solid, and this little problem can't help him.

"Well, since you know, you should understand that the most important reason why the piano has such a great appeal is that it is ever-changing power. An excellent pianist can clearly play more than ten levels of dynamics, and the richer the dynamics variety, the richer the sound under his hands. For example, in this chord just now, the score is marked with f, but how strong should f be? How can I play a strong sound that meets the requirements? Mo Yan asked Liu Yufan.

"This~~ I don't know." Liu Yufan scratched the back of his head and replied honestly. He suddenly found that in front of Mo Yan, he couldn't play the piano anymore.

"The principle of the piano is to strike the strings to make sound, that is, the sound comes out only at the moment when the mallet of the piano touches the strings. After that, it is released back into place, and no matter how hard you press on the keys, it will not affect the tone. Therefore, when you are practicing, it is important to control the way you touch the keys, and at the same time, you must always remember that when the piano makes a sound, this time the key touch is completed, immediately relax your muscles and prepare for the next key touch. ”

Mo Yan said, looked at Liu Yufan, and saw that although he looked like he was listening carefully, the expression on his face was very confused.

"These things are easier said than done, especially when it comes to turning him into an instinct of one's own! Touch the keys is a separate discipline in piano performance, I won't talk to you too much now, and I will analyze it in detail when I encounter specific problems in the future. Mo Yan said, and continued: "Now I will briefly talk to you about the use of power. In fact, according to my understanding, it is more appropriate to say that it is the use of strength, rather than the use of weight. The metacarpal joints of the hand are the supports, and the weight of the bones and muscles of the human body is transmitted to the fingertips through the control of the wrist, and the metacarpal joints are responsible for supporting the transmitted weight. As for the wrist joints, elbow joints, shoulder joints and even the spine, they are only responsible for 'carrying' weight, and you have to figure this out. I'll show you how. ”

Mo Yan said and began to play on the piano.

This is an unknown tune, or rather, it may be Mo Yan's arbitrary work.

At the beginning, Mo Yan's hands crawled low on the keys, his fingers rose and fell slightly, and a series of extremely subtle piano sounds sounded, like a thin veil, but they were so translucent and distinct!

Gradually, the hands began to become restless, the wrists began to become more and more active, and the sound changed from the single melody to a double tone, which became fuller! If the music before was like a tulle, then the music at this moment sounds like smooth silk, full of brilliant meaning!

After that, Mo Yan's movements became louder, the double notes became chords, the whole arm moved more and more, and even the entire upper body sometimes left the piano bench slightly, and Steinway made a brilliant and bright sound, like Hong Zhong Da Lu!

Gradually, the sound of the piano returned to its previous calm, and then became quieter, and finally it was nothing, like a train gradually moving away.

"How's it going, do you see what's coming?" After Mo Yan finished playing this music, he turned to look at Liu Yufan who was standing next to him and said.

"Some understand it, some don't." Liu Yufan replied honestly.

"Sit down and play the minor sonata in G major again." Mo Yan got up and gave up the piano.

Liu Yufan sat down as he said, and as soon as he played a chord, he was stopped by Mo Yan.

"This place, get involved, take the initiative! Forearm muscles relax! Mo Yan patted Liu Yufan's shoulder joint and said.

Nodding, Liu Yufan thought carefully about Mo Yan's words just now, took the initiative to lift his entire arm with his shoulder joint, and controlled his hands to fall towards the keys.

"No, it's too scattered! Relax your muscles, not let you lose control of him. Remember, relaxation is positive and thoughtful! Mo Yan continued to instruct.

Once, twice...... A simple chord, Liu Yufan played it several times before he "reluctantly" met Mo Yan's requirements.

"Okay, let's stop here today, this etude book is written by myself, you start practicing from the first one, practice two at a time, not much practice, in addition, these piano scores you are practicing now, don't practice step by step." Mo Yan said, opened the catalog of scores brought by Liu Yufan, and quickly ticked a few songs on each book: "Just practice the tunes I hooked." ”

"Then I'll go back first, Mr. Mo." After packing up the piano score, Liu Yufan and Mo Yan said goodbye.

"Yes, go ahead." Mo Yan, who had finished the class, once again returned to his previous coldness.
