Chapter 135 (II) The King's Fantasy World
The New Year's bell rings, and the only white hair in the fair world is spared. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoTime is the fairest thing in the world, and everyone has only a helpless sigh in the face of its passing.
However, this New Year is the day that Zhuo Yang has been looking forward to. On this day, it is also a festival in the city of Hanover. On the first day of the new year, the first solo piano recital of Zhuo Yang, a second-year student of the Hannover University of Music, a gold medal at the Schumann International Piano Competition, and captain of the Madiburg Football Club, and the first New Year's concert of his life, were held in the Hannover Municipal Concert Hall.
"The King's Fantasy World" - Zhuo Yang New Year's Concert!
The theme name of this concert was proposed and strongly proposed by Raiola, which is used to make Zhuo Yang's title 'KING' more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and also make Zhuo Yang's musical image and football image form a kind of echo.
Not only Zhuo Yang's family, but on this day, all his friends in Europe came. Needless to say, Bremen striker Miroslav Klose, German national team captain Michael Ballack, bantam tiger Thomas Hassler, East German cool Gostubernard, retired Greek handsome old man Kalitzaski, scum Klopp, Tuchel. All the teammates who could make it were here, and Angus Mullen led all the big names in the club.
Mr. Beckenbauer, the 'Emperor of Football', a heavyweight in world football, was also invited, but Sir Alex Ferguson of Manchester politely declined the invitation: Zhuo Yang, I can't hide it, firstly, I don't like Germans, and secondly, I really can't understand the piano. I love horse racing, would you like to come and see my horse? My Gibraltar rocks, Niang Xipi ran up that called a fast ......
This is probably the most attended classical concert ever performed by a footballer, but it may also be the most followed serious concert ever outside of the traditional classical music world.
Because of Zhuo Yang's dual identity and nationality, the news media here today not only have cultural exchanges between the two countries, but also official diplomatic media, not to mention football journalists from the two countries. Anyway, each has its own focus, killing pigs and butts -- each has its own way of killing.
Mark Venster's classmates, Big SB's gang can make friends. Two BOSS professors, Ali Wadi and Carl Norman, not only led the team of professors from the University of Music, but these two famous pianists are also Zhuo Yang's guest performers today.
Carl Norman was set a long time ago, because it was too ready-made, and it didn't need to be used in vain. He is a great person in the industry, with a huge reputation, coupled with this personal relationship, you don't need to think about it to determine that there is one of them. And Professor Ali Wadi volunteered to post it, which is really unexpected. A figure like Ali Wadi in the global piano world, it is already a big face to be able to listen to you play a song and a half, and no one dares to ask him to move the mountain slowly.
Professor Wadi called Zhuo Yang: Little Zhuo Yang, I want to go to your recital and play a few little tunes, okay?
Zhuo Yang immediately said: Grandpa, then let's talk in advance, you have to deliberately play a little worse. Otherwise, who will listen to me striking iron......
Another guest, whose status in the serious music industry is far from comparable to these two gods, but whose popularity in the world can throw these two professors out of the world is Richard Clayderman.
The 50-year-old French pianist Richard Clayderman is probably the most well-known pianist in China, he has influenced countless families and children in China, and more than a billion people in China have a piano craze because of him, and this influence has not diminished until ten or twenty years later.
However, Clayderman is a very controversial figure, and this controversy comes from the serious music industry. Orthodox classical musicians slammed his music for being sensational, ridiculing him for his lack of profundity. Classical music believes that Clayderman's music is impure and deliberately panders to the audience, and that it is an outsider. They considered Klayderman's use of modern techniques and soundtracks to interpret classical music as a desecration of music.
We can't comment on this controversy, but there is no doubt that Clayderman made a huge contribution to the popularization of the piano, making it possible for classical music and popular music to merge for the first time. Although this fusion still seems immature and nondescript, Clayderman deserves to be commended for his attempt.
It is precisely because of this controversy that Clayderman has been repressed in the classical serious music world, making money with a soft hand but no place in music history. However, the two professors, Ali Wadi and Carl Norman, were both people with great intentions, and although they also felt that Clayderman did not have a deep understanding of music and the level of performance was not up to the standard, they admired Kleiderman's contribution to the popularization and promotion of classical music.
I don't approve of you, but I respect you!
The two professors can be said to be Richard Kleiderman's backstage in the traditional music industry, helping him to fend off many malicious and narrow attacks. Zhuo Yang's dual identity as a musician and football, which gives his music an audience base that can be accessed to a wider audience, also happens to be Clayderman's strength. And Clayderman and Zhuo Yang are on the same stage, which is also an attempt to exchange serious music and popular music.
So, as soon as he received a phone invitation from the two great professors, Clayderman put on the performance dress in the cupboard.
Richard Clayderman is indeed a very dedicated professional pianist, he is meticulous in the rehearsal process with Zhuo Yang, and even has been nitpicky about the position and angle of the piano. But it is his professionalism of putting music transmission in the first place that has benefited Zhuo Yang a lot.
.
On the morning of the first day of the new year, Zhuo Yang's 16 piano pieces were flawless during the performance, and he galloped freely in the stadium of tens of thousands of people, and he also swayed freely in the concert hall of thousands of people. Zhuo Yang was completely immersed in his own performance, expressing his understanding of each movement vividly.
From the Schumann he was familiar with, to the Chopin he liked, and the Beethoven, Liszt, and ...... he was fascinated by. With different styles of solo and concerto, Zhuo Yang's performance level has once again been recognized by the industry, and at the end of each of his movements, he will be greeted with thunderous applause from the audience.
The old urchin Ali Wadi's performance is witty and humorous, and the seventy-year-old man playing on the piano seems so touching and innocent. Carl Norman expertly interacts with the audience in the concert hall, and the classical music is complemented by light-hearted jokes.
Richard Clayderman played two of his signature tracks, which were simple and brilliant in tone, and the poetic music resonated with the audience.
When two pianos, one gold and one black, were placed on the stage, Zhuo Yang and Clayderman performed the Chinese adaptation of the famous song "Liang Zhu", a collaboration between classical and modern, a concerto of serious and popular.
In the last song, Yang Hong, who had no prior knowledge, was invited to the stage by Zhuo Yang, and he invited his mother to play "Debussy Moonlight Song" with him, which was his mother's favorite song.
After playing the last note with his son, listening to the applause of the audience, looking at the flowers offered by his daughter Zhuo Qiu, and looking at the affectionate smile of her husband, the strong Yang Hong's eyes moistened. There is nothing to ask for in this life!
King's Fantasy World was a huge success!
