Chapter 0263 To Alice on the Waltz Dance Floor (Third Update, 1400 Monthly Pass Plus Update)
All right.
In fact, Liszt did not play "Two Tigers", nor did he sing "Run fast", in fact, he talked about playing a piano piece that he was most familiar with.
Beethoven's "To Alice" piano piece.
As for why he played this piece, it was naturally because it was very simple and familiar. When he was a child, he had more than one music box, and every time he turned it, it would jingle "To Alice". So much so that now, when he closes his eyes, the familiar melody that wants to vomit can still appear in his ears.
As one of the world's greatest piano composers, Beethoven's story of deafness in both ears has been written in primary school textbooks.
But few people know that Beethoven was unmarried.
He longed for love, and when he was 16 years old, he was fascinated by a noble lady, but because of the difference in status, Lao Yan flew apart and almost committed suicide. When he was 20 years old, he fell in love with a widow, but because of the disparity in status, he missed it. Ear disease has tormented him since he was a child, but he still yearns for love.
When he was in his forties, he fell in love with his schoolgirl, a young girl named Therese Marfati.
Impulsively, he wrote a ditty called "Bagatelle in A minor" and gave it to Thereser. Later, someone wrote a biography of Beethoven and found the piece from Therese's relics, but when it was published, the original title "To Teresa" was written as "To Alice".
Since then, this piano piece has begun to be widely circulated in the world.
Because of its simple monophonic melody, and even the music box market, it is almost dominated by "To Ellie" - the remaining half is divided by "Castle in the Sky" and "Canon".
When you play it for the first time.
Liszt's fingers are still very jerky, and there are many mistakes in playing them, which are not very perfect. But by the time he started playing it a second time, he had mastered every note and restored most of "To Alice".
I played it three times in a row.
He had just finished his first piano performance.
Like May Opal, he stood up and bowed slightly towards the aristocratic men and women who had stopped dancing on the dance floor and quietly enjoyed "To Alice".
When he turned around, he left the piano.
There was a round of applause from the audience, more than May Opal's "Eurie at the Water's Edge," most of whom had heard May Opal play "Eurie at the Water's Edge." But no one has ever heard this short and concise lyrical sketch "To Alice".
The charm of "To Alice" on the planet is self-evident, and even if Liszt's performance is only at a beginner's level, it still touches many people.
"Awesome!"
Mei Opal couldn't help but say: "Liszt, you must teach me this piece, I want to learn it!"
"No problem, I'll find time to compose the song. Liszt didn't have the idea of self-esteem, but he enjoyed the applause at the end of the performance.
Not only did Mei Opal revolve around him, but many nobles came up to him and asked him about the piano piece "To Alice".
A male aristocrat, exclaimed, "I have never heard of it, it is short, but it is very charming." ”
"I also heard it by chance. ”
An ordinary-looking aristocratic lady blinked with big eyes: "Sir Liszt, can you teach me to play this piece, by the way, it should have a name, right?"
"To Alice, I'll put the score together and give it to Cousin May Opal, and he'll give you a copy. ”
"I love this piano piece, I hear the sweet touch, I hear the depression that sees through the world, and the sad love of the whole piece, and the unswerving love longing until death!"
Liszt said regretfully: "Yes, it's a very sad story, I only remember this part of the more relaxed tune, and the really sad part in the back can not be played." In fact, he himself was not able to taste whether this sketch had a sad color.
A beginner-level "To Alice".
Success made Liszt, who wanted to keep a low profile, the focus of the ball.
Even when the pianist returned to the stage and began to play at a high level, there were still a large number of aristocrats who talked about piano music around Liszt.
"Hey, handsome pianist, can I ask you to do a dance?" a tall aristocratic lady suddenly squeezed out of the other ladies surrounding Liszt and stretched out her hand to Liszt.
Her appearance easily reminds Liszt of Elizabeth Olsen, the Red Witch in "Avengers 2".
It's just that the hair color is golden yellow, and the eye color is dark blue.
If 10 is a perfect score, she can probably get Liszt's evaluation of 8.5, which is much higher than Athena Salmon, who got 8 points in the first place.
"Miss Dunico invited, how could I refuse. Liszt grabbed her hand and followed her onto the dance floor.
Wrap your arms around your waist and dance slowly to the piano music, similar to the slow three steps of a waltz.
Liszt could feel that the other party was very close to him, as if he could connect hearts and warm each other.
"I love this song 'To Alice'. ”
"I like it too. ”
"But when you play, there are some things that don't flow well. ”
"Yes, I don't play the piano very often, and some fingerings have been forgotten. ”
"I play the piano every day, and I love music, especially this 'To Alice', which is a simple monophonic melody, but with something different and beautiful. I heard the grinding of my lover's ears, the whispers and the love that filled me, and I was intoxicated. ”
As she spoke, her mouth close to Liszt's ear, she blew a puff of hot air.
This kind of action made him feel respectful unconsciously, and he endured it so that he didn't express it: "Miss Dunico really understands music, but it's a pity that I can't restore the original "To Alice" and let you feel the sad love story told in the song. ”
"No, maybe it's the missing that is the best, it's short, it's light, it's the best piano piece, and it doesn't need to add any more melody. ”
Such an evaluation.
Liszt couldn't help but glance up at Miss Dunicot.
"To Alice" is an independent piano piece, and many people feel that it is a pity not to listen to his nonsense story after listening to it, but Dunico thinks that the incomplete part is complete enough.
This is a woman who really understands music.
Maybe this is the celebrity cultivated by the great aristocracy.
Dunico Hyacinth, whose father is Durant Hyacinth, one of the two counts of Red Crab Island. According to what May Opal told him, Dunico, now seventeen, is known as the thorny rose on Red Crab Island. The reputation is not very good, enthusiastic and proactive, but there are countless suitors around him, but there are no ones who really get love.
He put his arms around the other's slender and powerful waist.
Feeling the soft but elastic touch on his chest, as well as the gaze between bowing his head and raising his head, he suddenly had a lot of excitement: "Actually, the story was made up casually, and this piece is an independent piano piece. A pianist fell in love with an aristocratic lady and composed it impulsively. ”
