Qintai Concert Hall, as the best concert hall in Jiangcheng, is also the best concert hall in the whole Lake Province. It is dedicated to holding a variety of mid-to-high-end music events, including piano recitals.

In general, there are two types of piano recitals.

One is a concert that focuses on piano performance and is paired with certain instruments and even professional orchestras. This kind of concert is relatively full, designed with a professional program process, and is mostly used for commercial performances, or performances for ordinary audiences.

There is also a kind of piano solo, there is no instrument to match, only the pianist himself performs the piano solo!

Such recitals are rare and quite high-end, and generally appear in the internal communication of the piano world. Liu Meng's piano recital this time is his own recital.

Because there were not many people invited to the recital, only one or two hundred, the recital was not held in Hall 1, but in Hall 2, which was smaller in space and more upscale in all kinds of facilities.

There were still more than ten minutes before the start of the recital, and the pianists, piano critics, and professional music media personnel invited by Zhang Qi in Hall 2 were basically all present.

As for those who shirked Zhang Qi's invitation, it has nothing to do with here.

Although the space of Hall 2 is smaller than that of Hall 1, it is very spacious for an audience of less than 200. The venue is elegantly furnished, which is in line with the appreciation style of most piano lovers. It combines classical European and American style with some modern elements, making people feel that listening to a piano recital on such an occasion will be a beautiful enjoyment.

The best location in the middle of the venue. It is reserved for dozens of invited piano masters, including not only old-timers in the piano industry, but also rookies in the piano industry. And these people. As soon as he appeared at the venue, he became the center of attention for everyone.

For example, the invited music media people have turned on their cameras and other equipment to take pictures of these Chinese piano stars, as if the purpose of their trip is not Liu Meng's piano recital, but these piano masters.

However, out of politeness and the rules of the recital. The reporter did not take the liberty to come forward to disturb these piano people.

The most eye-catching thing in the whole venue is undoubtedly the rise of several young piano masters in the past ten years, and everyone's attention and topics are basically around these people at this moment.

"Look! Isn't that Fuxi? I heard that he was going to France for a concert in a few days. I didn't expect to come here. ”

"It's not just Fu Xi, look at the handsome guy with long hair next to him, it's Qin Yunxian, he's no worse than Fu Xi. It's just that it's been a little more low-key in the past two years. ”

"And that one. I heard that it is the closed disciple of Zhou Qu's old-timers, Yu Jia, the goddess who has risen in the piano recital in the past two years! ”

"The goddess of salvation?"

"Yes, although she has not held her own recitals, she has appeared many times in the recitals of some piano masters in the past two years. Once, it was Fu Xi's field that was saved. Tsk, that Liu Meng invited her over this time, I don't know if she was also ready to let her save the scene. ”

“”

When being in the limelight of the hall. Fu Xi and Qin Yunxian were chatting indifferently.

The two sat alone at a table, Fu Xi looked at Qin Yunxian and smiled, "I guess you will be invited." But I didn't expect you to come. Haven't you always been dismissive of this kind of newcomer recital? ”

Qin Yunxian elegantly took a sip of wine from his wine glass and said, "It's quite surprising that you, a busy person who runs around all day, will come." ”

"I'm here to rest and relax." Fu Xi said with a smile.

"By the way, didn't you premiere Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 3 in the United States three months ago, how do you feel?" Qin Yunxian changed the topic.

"Don't mention it, I almost didn't hold on." Fu Xi shook his head with emotion, "So I decided, it's better not to play this piece easily in the future." ”

Qin Yunxian shook his wine glass and said, "Rachmanizhov once jokingly called his concerto 'Elephant's work', which is a metaphor for its heaviness and heaviness. Some people also describe the physical effort of playing 'La San' once is equivalent to shoveling ten tons of coal. There was even an Australian pianist who had a nervous breakdown because he played 'La San'. Although these words are exaggerated, the physical and mental demands of 'La San' are indeed the highest of all piano music. ”

"'La San' is a well-deserved number one difficult song in the world." Fu Xi nodded, and then said: "Today, this newcomer challenges the top ten difficult songs, not to mention the skills or anything, it is not easy to pass the physical strength and spirit alone." ”

"This recital will last for three hours, and this newcomer will definitely perform the ten difficult pieces in three waves, with a break in between, maybe it will really be a challenge?"

Hearing this, Fu Xi smiled again and said, "How can I listen to the tone of your speech, which is completely opposite to the meaning expressed in the content?" ”

Qin Yunxian looked at the piano in the shadow of the stage with a deep gaze, and said faintly: "Each of the ten difficult songs is a sacred work of art, and it should not and cannot be defiled by people full of fame and fortune. ”

Fu Xi also sighed: "There are a few international friends here today, I hope it won't be a farce that makes people laugh." ”

Backstage in Hall 2, Liu Meng is performing the work of a teacher.

That's right, it's a teacher's job.

"When you go on stage, don't be nervous, don't have any mental pressure, just like when you usually practice in the school piano room, understand?"

"Hmm." Gan Shuangshuang and Gao Hao both nodded.

Zhang Qi walked over, glanced at Gan Shuangshuang and Gao Hao, and then pulled Liu Meng aside and said: "Liu Meng, although these two children were the top two in last year's Qinggang Competition, their strength is better than that of ordinary piano geniuses, but today is your first solo, there can't be anything wrong." ”

Liu Meng smiled and said: "Chairman Zhang, don't worry, they have studied with me for a year, and their piano performance level is much stronger than before." ”

"With Ganshuangshuang ahead of me, I believe in your ability to teach. But you actually let them go up and play the world's top ten difficult songs, for these two children, even the bottom two songs are very difficult! Zhang Qi said.

He let out his old face and helped Liu Meng do this piano solo, but he didn't want to have problems because of Liu Meng's recklessness.

Liu Meng was still unmoved, and said calmly: "Chairman Zhang, as far as I know, at the age of fourteen or fifteen, like Fu Xi and Qin Yunxian, they can all play a world difficult song, right?" Why can't my students have this ability? ”

Zhang Qi hurriedly said: "Fu Xi and Qin Yunxian are real geniuses that have been rare in the piano world for decades, your two students"

"They're real geniuses too!" Liu Meng rushed in front of Zhang Qi and said, his tone was cut off.

Zhang Qi was choked for a while, stared at Liu Meng for a while, and was about to say something, when a staff member came over there and said, "Chairman Zhang, Mr. Liu, the time for the piano solo is coming soon." ”

"I'm going to the stage now, Chairman Zhang, don't say anything to my students, everything will come according to my plan." After speaking, Liu Meng smiled, looked in the mirror on the side, and walked into Hall 2 calmly.

In Hall 2, when the lights change and a figure appears at the piano, all the audience is silent - this is the courtesy of the audience when the pianist is playing.

A few soft beams of light gathered on the figure's body, making the figure's face appear clearly in front of everyone, and suddenly there were some slight discussions.

"Yu Jia, I didn't expect this person to be quite handsome, and he looks much more manly than Qin Yunxian's guy." A long-haired girl leaned into Yu Jia's ear and said.

Yu Jia smiled and replied softly: "It's very manly, but I don't know what the strength is." Sister Sasa, what do you say he will play in the first song? ”

In the latter sentence, Yu Jia asked another slightly older woman next to her.

If there are young people who like piano music here, they will definitely be very surprised to see these three women, because these three people are the most outstanding young female pianists in China, Yu Jia, Sasa, and Zhang Zhuo.

Sasa said without moving: "If it were me, I would choose a piece of medium difficulty for the first song, and then the difficulty will gradually decrease." The last nine pieces are divided into three interludes and finished with 'La Three'. ”

Zhang Zhuo was about to say something, but Sasa suddenly put his finger to his lips and made a silent gesture, but it was the person on the stage who spoke.

"Hello everyone, I'm Liu Meng, and I'm very happy to be able to enjoy my first solo piano performance. This piano solo is a challenge for me to the world's top ten difficult songs. All of you here are famous piano artists, excellent piano music critics and related media reporters, most of whom are my seniors. So, I would like to ask for your advice. ”

Hearing Liu Meng's words, the audience below couldn't help but smile, and they felt like they had come to the martial arts conference.

Liu Meng didn't care about the reactions of the people below, sat down in front of the piano, pulled his hands left and right, and his ten fingers flowed through the keys like water, and instantly tried the keys of this piano.

"This is"

"Biliu Hand!"

"Audition stunt Biliushou!"

When a string of notes that were almost practiced into a line floated out, many listeners suddenly exclaimed.

All of you here are people who know how to play the piano, and because of this, you clearly understand how rare Liu Meng's audition technique is just now. It is said that this kind of audition stunt is at least possible for palace-level piano masters, such as Fu Xi and Qin Yunxian, and it is only possible.

However, in the end, this is just a testimony to prove the player's skills, and the level depends on the formal piano performance. Therefore, Fu Xi, Qin Yunxian and others are all quiet, maintaining the calmness and calmness that palace-level piano everyone should have.

However, when Liu Meng's ten fingers fell on the keys again and played the first note belonging to the first song, Fu Xi, Qin Yunxian, and even most of the people present couldn't calm down.

"The first piece he played turned out to be 'La San'?!!"
