Chapter 214: The Sound of the Three Clears

The Lord of Feiyun Cave said, "You're welcome. The piano is an elegant thing, not to play casually, every exercise must be calm, dignified and sitting, the body is natural, and the state of mind is quiet and peaceful. The ancients played the piano in a humane manner, when they were clean and changed their clothes, and their hands were washed and incense burned, in order to show their respect.

When playing the piano, the first thing is to breathe evenly, keep up with the rhythm of the song, and not be stiff. If it is played to a melodious and free place, but it is bad to breathe, and the face is red and the neck is thick, there is no freedom to talk about at all; if it is played to a fast and exciting place, and the frequent panting, making it weak, there is no excitement at all.

Furthermore, when playing the piano, you should be in a peaceful state of mind, concentrate on the piano, focus on the music, raise your hand and wave your fingers, and be in harmony with your mood. In this way, you can get the charm of the piano and the song, and play the artistic conception.

To learn the piano, you must first learn fingering. Fingering has support, rubbing, picking, wiping, picking, hooking, hitting, picking, etc. Luck refers to be quiet, anxious but not chaotic, many but not complicated, quiet from the middle, sound from the heart. Luck refers to calmness, sound to moist, not rough and impetuous. The sound of the piano should be like turbulence, without lag and unhindered, and every note played should be more expensive than a word of circle. ”

The Lord of Feiyun Cave demonstrated on the piano while speaking. Hearing him talk, the Antarctic Immortal Weng said with a smile: "Brother Dao, playing the piano actually requires so much attention, it is more difficult than practicing martial arts, but I am afraid that it is not easy to learn." ”

The Feiyun Cave Lord smiled: "I'm just going to talk about it first, and then I'll teach you bit by bit. Although the piano is said to be a musical instrument, how can it be learned as soon as it is learned?"

Zhu Kexin listened to him play the flute in the Tai Valley, and listened to him stroke the piano in this cave, all of which were melodious and pleasant, fascinating, and very popular. And Nanhua Xian Weng is seventy years away, so he is naturally inferior to her. As soon as I remembered the fingering of the pick, I forgot the essentials of wiping. After studying for an hour, he got impatient and said, "Brother Dao, you still teach Miss Zhu first." ”

The Feiyun Cave Lord smiled: "This is not achieved overnight, let's learn here first." ”

Zhu Kexin said: "Seniors, the piano music can please people's temperament, so there will be no sadness and the sound of the country?"

The Feiyun Cave Lord shook his head and said: "The sound of the piano lies in the music score, and what kind of music score will play what kind of qin sound." There is a spectrum of pleasant temperament, and there is naturally a song of sadness and mourning. But now you can only learn the music of the pleasant temperament, and you must not play the music of mourning and mourning, so as not to hurt your body. Zhu Kexin nodded.

Yang Bao'er had been listening to it all the time, and then suddenly said, "Master, you can tell me a story about the sad music score, let us listen to it." "Yang Bao'er is a child's family, he likes to listen to stories the most, he has always known that there are many stories in the master's chest, so he wants him to tell them.

The Lord of Feiyun Cave smiled: "Children don't know how to learn things, they just like to listen to stories. Okay, I'll tell you a story so I can show you the magic of piano music. Legend has it that among the thousands of music scores in this world, there are three most sad and moving songs, which are the ancient "Qing Shang", "Qing Zheng" and "Qing Jiao".

Legend has it that in the Spring and Autumn Period, the monarch of the Jin Kingdom, Jin Ping, built the palace of Qi, which was magnificent and gorgeous, in order to boast of the candidates, all the candidates were invited to Jin. Among all the candidate countries, there was a patriotic country, and the monarch Linggong Su liked the five tones, and he also came to the meeting. On this day, Wei Linggong came to Pushui and lived in the post house. In the middle of the night, I heard the faint sound of the piano, so I leaned on my pillow and listened. But listening to its sound is very small, but it is recognizable, and the music has never been heard. I asked the people around me, but they all said that they had never heard of it. Linggong has always loved music, and invited a musician named Juan to accompany him. Juan Shanchang composed a new song. He asked Shi Juan to come out and listen carefully, so that he could compose a song. Sure enough, the next day, Shi Juan composed a tune based on the sound he heard, played the piano, and did it perfectly.

When he arrived in the Jin Kingdom, Wei Linggong and Jin Pinggong met. Both monarchs loved musical instruments, so Pinggong asked Linggong if he had any new compositions, and Linggong responded with the new compositions of Shi Juan. Pinggong was overjoyed, so he asked Shi Juan to come up and sit down, take out the piano made of ancient paulownia wood, and put it in front of Shi Juan. Shi Juan reconciled the seven strings, flicked his fingers, and only played a few times, and Ping Gong nodded again and again.

Pinggong also has a musician on his side, which is a famous teacher. Shi Juan was only halfway through the performance, so Shi Kuang stepped forward and pressed the strings and said, "This is the sound of the dead country, and it cannot be played." ”

When he heard this, he asked, "How do you know that it is the voice of the dead country?"

Shi Kuang said: "In the last years of the Yin Dynasty, there was a musician named Yan, who made beautiful music for the king of Zhou, and the king of Zhou listened to it and forgot it, and finally died in the country, which is this song." When King Wu was attacking, Shi Yan fled east with the qin, and it is said that he died in the water. When a happy person walks through there, he can hear the sound of the piano, and he thinks that Shi Juan heard this song above the water. Wei Linggong was secretly surprised.

Jin Pinggong said: "Then what's the matter?"

Shi Kuang said: "Because the king is obscene and happy, and even the country is destroyed, this is an ominous sound, so the king should not hear it." ”

Jin Pinggong didn't listen, and insisted that Shi Juan play the whole song. So Shi Juan continued to play. But when I heard this song, it was very subdued, like crying and complaining, like ghosts and gods crying at night. Jin Pinggong was very happy when he heard it, and asked Shi Kuang the name of this song.

Shi Kuang said: "This song is the so-called "Qing Shang". ”

Jin Ping said fairly: "This Qing Shang song is probably the most pathetic song since ancient times?"

Shi Kuang said: "Although this Qing Shang is sad, it is not as good as "Qing Zheng". ”

Jin Ping was overjoyed and said, "Can you play it for me?"

Shi Kuang said: "No, in ancient times, the people who listened to "Qing Zheng" were all virtuous and righteous monarchs, and my monarch's morality was too thin to listen. ”

Jin Pinggong was crazy about music, and he was not annoyed when he heard it, and insisted that he play it. The teacher had no choice but to sit down and play the piano. But seeing him caressing the piano with both hands, and only playing for a while, a large group of cranes flew from the south and stopped on the beams of the palace, a total of eight pairs. After playing for a while, the cranes flew and chirped, and lined up on the steps in order, eight on the left and right, in an orderly manner. After playing for a while, the crane stretched out its neck and chirped, spreading its wings and dancing to the sound of the piano. The crowd was amazed.

After the song, Jin Pinggong sighed: "There is no better way to play the piano to this situation of "Qing Zheng". ”

How do you know Shi Kuang and said: "The song of "Qing Zheng" is not as good as "Qing Jiao". ”

Jin Pinggong was even more pleased when he heard it, and asked him to play again.

Shi Kuang said: "This "Qingjiao" is not comparable to "Qingzheng", and the ministers dare not play it. Because this song is from the Yellow Emperor entangled ghosts and gods on Mount Tai in the past, it is to drive an elephant car and the dragon, Bi Fang and govern, the wind and the dust, the rain master sprinkled the road, the tiger and wolf drove forward, the ghosts and gods followed, the snake fell to the ground, the phoenix was covered, and the ghosts and gods were combined. Since then, the kings' kindness has become thinner and thinner, and it is no longer enough to subdue the spirits. If you play this song, you will be full of ghosts and gods, and there will be no blessing or woe. ”
