[The new book needs the care of friends, please vote for your recommendation, thank you! ] 】

The "West Lake Concert Hall" held the HZ City Piano Performance Competition, although it is only a local competition, but because of the relationship between ZJ Music University, the strength of the judges of this competition is also very superb, much higher than the gold content of the general competition, there are many pianists from all over the country to admire, just to let these superb judges see their own skills, in case they are appreciated, accepted as disciples, and used endlessly for a lifetime.

But Shen Wuhuan passed through the channel of the contestants, holding the color printing of the competition order list, and she didn't know any of the judges and teachers above, which made her a little panicked.

Participating in the competition is not just about winning awards, observing the preferences of the judges is also the top priority, and it is clearly written on the order list that Mr. Li Hai has high requirements for the independence of the notes, if you want to worship under him, then the processing of the notes in the performance must be clean and neat, with a strong sense of grain and independence.

The female music teacher named Zhang Aiqin pays more attention to the delicate handling of the feelings of the notes, and the use of pedals, the breathing of the wrists, and the strength and length of the touch of the notes have become places that need to be paid attention to.

The last Dong Jiawen doesn't have so many bells and whistles, that is, the basic skills, the degree of restoration of the music, whether it can restore the composer's creative intention, rhythm, note texture, timbre, and fingering are what he pays attention to.

Shen Wuhuan looked at the repertoire played by more than 20 contestants besides her, and retrieved the scores of these repertoire from the music library in her head, and suddenly had a feeling of eating flies.

It is no wonder that there are nearly 30 people in the morning, although these pieces are rich and diverse in musicality and full of charm, but most of them are no more than three minutes, and there are not even rapids with a BPM of more than 120, and there are several players whose repertoire is as long as four minutes, but they are all adagio songs with a BPM of about 50.

She can't go wrong with this kind of difficult piece playing backwards with her eyes closed, it's really unchallenging.

Shen Wuhuan had this kind of personality in her previous life, music aside, she was a simple ordinary person who couldn't be simpler, gentle and kind to people and even a little cowardly, but when it came to music, she immediately turned into an extremely aggressive person, anyone who picks on her music, I'm sorry, then she has to compare it with this person.

Because of this character, she almost offended everyone she could offend, so that no media was willing to speak for her at the worst time.

Is she going to change in this life? Nonsense, of course don't change, this is the character, this is the label, dare to question me, go through the tricks first!

As soon as this thought arose, her self-confidence returned, and her apprehension in the face of the judges she didn't know disappeared, because there was nothing that Shen Wuhuan couldn't do well in those things they observed, she could do her best, better than anyone else.

But the song doesn't work, this song can't show its own skills, you have to change the tune!

This competition is not a competition for a single composer, there is no limit to the scope of the repertoire, any composer can participate in the competition as long as it is a classical piano piece, and it is not a big deal to change the repertoire.

But Shen Wuhuan, who had a great outbreak of phobia, couldn't tell which one was the staff and which one was the player, and she was confused for a while, and in desperation, she saw an acquaintance, who was Li Yunxi, who had helped her before.

"That's... I wanted to change the track, but I didn't know who to turn to. ”

At this time, Li Yunxi, who was chatting with a familiar friend to resolve his pre-game anxiety, suddenly saw Shen Wuhuan's appearance, crying and laughing, and his emotions climbed to the peak again, and he just wanted to speak, but suddenly heard the whispers of several colleagues around him.

"Isn't this Shen Wuhuan? I just looked at the entry form, and I thought it was a duplicate name, but I didn't expect her to come. ”

"Isn't it? Isn't she the one who had a performance accident at a concert abroad? ”

"It's not that simple, it is said that she was also adopted abroad, and she was played all over at a young age, and she is not a good person."

The topic became more and more excessive, Li Yunxi frowned, and pulled Shen Wuhuan away from these eight women's guys, "I'll take you to change the track." ”

"Oh, thank you." Shen Wuhuan, who was obedient, was pulled by Li Yunxi like this, which immediately caused the surrounding crowd to point fingers.

Li Yunxi saw this scene in her eyes, she was angry, she now remembered who this was, CN's most talented girl pianist, who has held several concerts abroad, although she may not be worse than her, but she can't deny the other party's achievements.

Of course she knew about that recital, and she also knew that this young pianist who had been silent for three years was already very miserable, but these people were still chewing their tongues behind their backs.

She suddenly stopped and glanced at the people around her, who were forced by Li Yunxi's eyes, and suddenly their voices were much quieter.

Li Yunxi is a French-Chinese, born in the romantic capital of Paris, well-known in several European countries, it is her grandfather's wish to return to China for development, and her musical achievements are also the top in China, in this world where music has no borders, the glory of Chinese will also make CN people empathize, this is her first stop after returning to China, and her reputation makes these low-status contestants dare not disagree with her behavior.

"Ah, what's wrong? Why don't you go? ”

Yes, Shen Wuhuan didn't hear what Li Yunxi said at all, her mind was full of thinking about changing the tune, as soon as Li Yunxi stopped here, she bumped into her, where did her little arms and legs hit Li Yunxi, and she asked suspiciously.

Li Yunxi looked at her and frowned cutely, and said softly, "It's okay, let's go." ”

When he arrived at the workshop, Li Yunxi quickly explained his intentions, and the staff looked at Li Yunxi and then at Shen Wuhuan and said coldly: "I can't change it." ”

Li Yunxi was stunned: "How can it not be changed, you have this kind of regulation here?" ”

"Hehe, if you can't change it, you can't change it." After the staff finished speaking, they also glanced at Shen Wuhuan.

Li Yunxi was silent, she seemed to know something, looked at Shen Wuhuan beside her, and didn't know how to get it.

This staff member clearly wants to card Shen Wuhuan, the so-called Hades is easy to hide, and the little ghost is difficult, this staff member looks like a small leader, if he does something on the beatmap handed over to the teacher, he will not be able to explain it clearly at that time, although Li Yunxi is not afraid of this person, but this competition is her first stop in China after all, and she hesitated in her heart.

Looking at Shen Wuhuan on the side, he didn't seem to say anything, like a little girl with a weak personality.

When the staff saw that the two of them were easy to bully, they let out a lot of words: "I'll take a look at what you chose, Wen Hui's "Voice of Summer", isn't this song very good, this must have been picked by your parents for you, you know what a fart about that bit of aesthetics?" ”

Shen Wuhuan raised his head suddenly, the action was too violent, not only scared the staff member back, but even Li Yunxi was frightened.

Seeing Shen Wuhuan's eyes wide, the momentum was like a female tiger descending the mountain, Li Yunxi couldn't imagine how her little appearance could suddenly become so fierce.

"Can't be changed? I've played more tournaments than any woman you've ever played? You tell me you can't change it? ”

“... What are you talking about... Do you still want to..."

The staff seemed to be frightened, but he didn't forget to threaten him, Shen Wuhuan took a step forward, and his momentum went further, "What do I want?" I've had concerts in many countries in Europe, and there's a guy who knows my name, likes my playing, and has my signed CD at home, what do you want to do to me? ”

The staff was really frightened when he said this, of course he knew Shen Wuhuan's identity, except for that performance accident, her life history was like a god who couldn't look at it directly, and he didn't even dare to think about the truth of these words.

Imps are difficult to deal with, but they are also easy to eliminate.

The man hesitated for a long time, and finally said that he could change it, but he had to bring the score.

"Is it okay to copy the score by hand?" Li Yunxi looked at Shen Wuhuan and found that after the matter was resolved, she returned to her harmless appearance.

The staff just wanted to get them away as soon as possible: "Yes, you can copy it to me." ”

Li Yunxi turned around and took out a stave book and a pen from his small backpack and handed them to Shen Wuhuan, "Wuhuan, copy it, what number are you, see if you have enough time." ”

Shen Wuhuan looked at the order table, she was ranked twenty-one, and now she has just reached the ninth place, and she is counted as one person for 10 minutes, and it will be a long time when it is her turn, and it is not a big problem, she did not thank her, picked up the notebook and pen and copied it.

She has a good memory, she has an absolute sense of the notes, and she memorizes all the pieces that often appear in these recitals, and she can't make a mistake when she closes her eyes.

Li Yunxi looked at her watch, she was ranked nineteenth, in front of Shen Wuhuan, but until the eleventh contestant came to the stage, Shen Wuhuan had not finished copying the work, and Li Yunxi couldn't sit still.

Every time Shen Wuhuan finished writing a sheet of music, he carefully tore the score off the sheet music and put it aside to dry, at this time it was already very thick, Li Yunxi looked at such a thick sheet music, and secretly said in his heart: "Is this a mistake?" Why do you write so many sheets? ”

But as soon as she looked at it, she was shocked, there was no trace of any correction error in the dozen pages of sheet music in her hand, the notes were densely distributed on the staff, starting from A minor, the dynamics changed from p to pp, and in the middle to E major, and then the cycle, and the middle section changed from E major to C major.

She had never seen this piece before, and the completeness of this score did not look like it was created by a human, it was very complete.

"What about the back?" Li Yunxi couldn't care about so much, and pushed Shen Wuhuan to ask.

Shen Wuhuan, who was interrupted, had a bitter face, because he was pushed, there was a clerical error at the end of the last one.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's a little mistake, just change it, is it finished?" Li Yunxi looked at Shen Wuhuan's face that was about to cry, and hurriedly comforted her.

When the final scribble was altered, Shen Wuhuan tore off this one and blew lightly, Li Yunxi saw this scene in his eyes, but he only felt dazzled, because at this moment, the girl in front of her seemed to have turned into a goddess who specialized in musical notes in the Heavenly Palace, and there were colorful musical notes floating around her, and the surging power exuded by these notes shocked her.

"Alright." Shen Wuhuan put the score in her hand.

Li Yunxi came back to his senses, nodded in response, and then looked at the score seriously.

Eventually, she was sure that she had never seen this score, not even a similar score, not even a piece that could compare to it.

With her ability to appreciate music, this is absolutely impossible to happen, unless, the score is her original...

As a temptation, Li Yunxi asked: "Why doesn't the score have a name, you need a name." ”

"Oh, really?"

Shen Wuhuan took the score, and then wrote seriously on the first page: "Piano etude, winter wind." ”

A cold wind blew away Li Yunxi's long hair, making her feel as if she was in a winter gale, and the notes swept through her cerebral cortex, making her dare not take the slightest action.

At this moment, Li Yunxi witnessed the birth of history.
