His hands were gently pressed against the keys, his eyes slightly closed. Copy this address to view %77%77%77%2e%62%69%71%69%2e%6d%65

The next moment, his arms sank slightly, as if a gentle wave swept by, and a quiet arpeggio sounded like water.

The first movement of Beethoven's Sonata in C sharp minor!

Gently undulating short arpeggios create an atmosphere of extreme tranquility. Flowing music, but it can bring people a deeper quiet. This kind of thing that seems to be obviously disobedient happened most naturally at this moment.

The people who had just finished enjoying a polyphony of Bach and were refreshed were now brought into a deeper calm by the silence of this sonata.

Some of them had half-closed eyes and were fully engaged in the atmosphere of the music, while others looked intently at Chu Yang's hands, admiring them as they swung together on the keys.

At this moment, no one will ever think about "exams" anymore. The rest is just pure appreciation.

Before this, they might not have thought that in such a school-level, entrance exam scene, they could actually hear such a "Moonlight"!

Yes, they have heard this song thousands of times, and they are even a little tired of listening to it, and they have heard it enough. But there is no way, this song is so famous, too many students who are preparing for admission will spend a lot of effort to prepare a "famous song", and "Moonlight", as a representative of "famous songs", is undoubtedly famous enough and loud enough, and it is not surprising that it has become everyone's first choice.

But the problem is that from their point of view, listening to the students' performances is simply a lot of faults, no matter how beautiful the music is, it is useless to play it badly, and they all listen to it in the mood of finding faults.

But now?

Such a song "Moonlight" makes them unable to find the slightest fault, or rather, they have no energy to find fault anymore, their energy is all focused on appreciation.

This song "Moonlight". From the moment its first note sounded, once again told the seven piano authorities the fact that this moonlight was perfect to flawlessness!

Even, even the shortest musical instrument - the old Xinghai 118. At this moment, it was like a new piano, and the sound that came out was not the kind of unpleasant and harsh sound at all, but a beautiful and gorgeous sound as bright as the top Steinway.

If they are rational and objective, focus their attention on the changes in the sound of the piano. Perhaps this will be discovered. But it's a pity that their attention was attracted by Chu Yang's performance at the first time. From the first tune, that's it.

"Hey, who's playing moonshine?" In the corridor of Yin's teaching building, Karen, a foreign teacher who was holding a piano sheet and was about to go to class, suddenly heard a gentle sound of the piano. And the sound of the piano came from the side of the classroom beside him.

The Central Conservatory of Music also has foreign teachers, who are generally high-level music talents recruited from these countries such as the United States and Russia. Karen is one of them.

Karen graduated from the Curtis Institute of Music, a conservatory that has produced many great musicians, including Lang Lang from Huaxia, who came here for further study after studying at the Central Conservatory of Music.

Cullen used to be the principal pianist of the Philadelphia Orchestra in the United States, and because of his admiration for Huaxiahua, he came to the Central Conservatory of Music and has been working here for more than three years. In the past three years, on the one hand, he has been obsessed with Huaxia, especially Chinese folk music. On the other hand, he also gained a deeper understanding of the art education system in China.

The same music teacher in China is different. Cullen has his own perspective on piano education in China. In his opinion, this emerging and rapidly developing country is on the wrong path purely from the perspective of piano education.

True. This country has a huge number of piano learners unmatched in the world, with a total of eight million piano children. To be honest, at the beginning, Cullen was taken aback by the number! You know, so many people learn piano, and the number of people in the United States is almost equal to the total population of a larger continent.

But when he learned more about the current situation of piano education in Huaxia, Karen found that most of the so-called eight million piano children were not real piano learners at all!

They were in a very bad environment, terrible instruments, terrible piano teachers, terrible examination system, well, Cullen had never seen any country before, where piano education was so uneven, mud and sand!

In the United States, the teachers who are really engaged in professional piano education are very good piano talents, they are pianists themselves, have been certified by authoritative music institutions, and participate in large-scale performance practice. And in China, most piano teachers, especially those in small cities, are simply terrible. They themselves have not experienced formal, strict, and standardized piano education, although in Karen's eyes, these so-called formal, strict, and standardized piano education are also full of problems, full of dogma, rigidity and other problems, but after all, the basic things are still correct. But those inferior teachers, who are not even able to touch the keys in the basic way, cannot even play a slightly more difficult sonata, and some only have the level of Czerny 599 to teach those beginners. Karen's first reaction when he saw this was crazy!

To paraphrase an old saying from this ancient country, this is a complete misconception!

And here, the top institution of piano education in Huaxia, Karen also saw a lot of problems here that he was not used to. For example, they are accustomed to playing large, difficult repertoire, confined themselves to a small box, unwilling to study the works of unknown pianists, they never even play those popular piano works, let alone play some improvised jazz and blues, as well as pop songs and folk music of their country, these are all very good things in Karen's opinion, but they never play them. What they talk about every day is always Liszt, Xiao Lian, Beethoven, Rubinstein...... Of course, there are endless exams, exams, and competitions.

Oh my God, is the piano a tool for them to compete, or to show off their skills? You know, the piano is used to play beautiful music. Not for showing skill.

Fortunately, Karen still has a high degree of freedom and respect here, and the people here worship foreign religions very much, and here he can get respect and courtesy that he can't get in the United States. Every time he gives a public lecture, many students will come to listen, and many will take the initiative to come over and take photos with him. Cullen loves it, and that's why he chose to stay here.

The country is not a paradise, and the economy of the country has been in recession over the years. This decline also affected the art world, and the Philadelphia Orchestra, where Cullen was originally from, had not had a decent large-scale performance for several months before he left for China, and the money he didn't make was even enough to support him, so he had no choice but to come to China. And he found that people here were gradually showing more interest in Yan Sù's music, and they were willing to spend a lot of money to go to the concert hall and listen to a concert. His piano solo performances have been held several times in Yenching and have also been very popular, which makes him feel good.

But he also said to his Huaxia colleagues on more than one occasion in public and semi-public that the piano education system in Huaxia was too backward and rigid, and that what could be educated under such a system could only be a group of machines who could play the piano, and could not teach masters. But unfortunately, although they superficially agreed with their words, they turned around. It's still repeating what happened before. This made him feel very helpless.

In his opinion, the students who can enter here are really good at music. Their skills are great, and their efforts are unmatched by the students of the United States. But. They spend a lot of time and energy on boring practice and competitions, as if their only motivation to practice piano is to participate in competitions, to win awards, and to prove that they are good. Others are awesome!

However, if you play the piano with such a mentality, can you still play the artistic conception of the music itself?

Walking in this music building every day, Cullen hears the rapid, frantic, virtuosity of all kinds of piano sounds, which to him sounds like noise, soulless, pure accumulation of skills. He felt lamentable and sad, he cried out in his class, but sadly, no one listened to him.

But today, it seems to be a little different.

As Cullen walked through this ordinary little classroom, he was attracted by the soft sound of the piano coming from inside, which was so natural and so quiet that it instantly fixed his steps.

It was Beethoven's moonshine, which he had heard countless times. This piece is also his favorite tune to listen to and play.

He had also heard many students play this song "Moonlight", but every time he heard them play, he ran away, and as if something dirty had entered his ears, he wanted to wash it out desperately. At this time, he would take out the Kempf CD, put it in the CD player, wear AKG's top-of-the-line monitor headphones, and listen to it several times in one go. It's as if you can't drive away that bad mood if you don't do it.

But today, this moonshine ......

Oh my God, that quiet, that calm, that deep......

Listening to the sound of the piano, Cullen's heart also became intoxicated. He seemed to feel that he was on the seashore in the quiet of the night, the black sea water connected into a large area of endless low and quiet, and a white, veil-like light moon gently projected on the surface of the sea, instantly illuminated his heart.

"What a beautiful piano sound, whose version is this? Gilels? Richter? Kempf, no, it's live! After keenly catching the sound of a pedal, Cullen suddenly came to his senses and said!

"How can a live performance play such an effect? Who is he? At this moment, the huge shock made Cullen almost lose his temper.

At this moment, he couldn't wait to immediately push open the door and go in, to see who this master who played the "moonlight" so calmly and profoundly at this moment!

It will definitely not be Zhou, nor will it be Ling, although the performance skills of the two of them are impeccable, they are both standard academics, and they can't play such a free Beethoven!

Could it be Wu? It seems even more unlikely.

Could it be that some master invited by the academy is going to perform here?

For a while, countless thoughts floated from his mind, but they were denied one by one.

It's just that this qiē is only a matter of a short time, and Ma, he is completely immersed in this music.

The short and quiet first movement ends, and after a moment of silence, a bright second movement is played with a cheerful and jumping double note.

This movement is extremely short and bright, as if reminiscing about the sweet times of the past, and some music critics say that this movement, which is only more than two minutes long, is like a "small flower sandwiched between two cliffs".

As if beauty was destined to be short-lived, in a little more than two minutes, the short second movement ended.

A moment of silence.

However, whether it was the seven examiners sitting in the room listening to the performance, or Cullen standing outside the classroom enjoying the music, they all held their breath at this moment!

Because, they all know very well what will happen next!

In an instant, a low thunderous sound rolled from the bass range, and in the blink of an eye, it had slipped into the bright high register!

This swift arpeggio, like a bolt of lightning, instantly and ruthlessly tore apart the harmony and beauty that had just been brief and quiet!

"Zheng!" The resolute chord sounded, like a sledgehammer falling to the ground, and like a ruthless iron hand, instantly shattering the fantasy and tranquility of a qiē!

Immediately, with little time to think and breathe, a more rapid and restless sound stream once again rolled through the bass area, with a more intense emotion, and in an instant, it was pushed to the peak!

The left hand quickly swept over the keys, and the delicate and accurate touch of the keys did not seem to have a trace of superfluous movements, full of force and beautiful rhythm! And the movement of the right hand bounced off the keys forcefully, and it looked so thorough, neat, and violent, as if it was about to smash a qiē!

Cullen's whole body was completely frozen, and the sound of the piano, like an electric current, passed through his heart again and again, making his soul tremble.

"Oh my God, this kind of music, this kind of music is real music, this is the real Beethoven, this is the real moonlight!" Listening to this cold piano sound, Karen shed tears of excitement, at this moment, he seemed to follow this piano sound, touched the inner world of Beethoven, a generation of music giants, and blended with his soul!
