Chapter 37: Piano Performance
The room in the villa is not a modern piano with black and white keys. Rather, it is a harpsichord that can only play strong and weak notes, and a classical piano with only white keys.
This classical piano uses the principle of plucking the strings to pronounce the sound, and the timbre is very clear, but the intensity of the performance is not as perfect as the 88 keys of a modern piano.
Most of Bach's works are played on harpsichord. Each note of the harpsichord is as crisp and pleasant as a big bead and a small bead falling on a jade plate, the timbre is lively and outward, and each note appears mellow and three-dimensional when played.
The harpsichord uses a mechanical mechanism connected to the keys to pull the levers, and each lever is connected to a plectrum made of tendons, which fluctuates the strings to produce sound, and the rhythm, dynamics and speed are different from those of modern pianos.
Romeo sat on the piano bench with a frown, his heart almost broken. These two sets of keyboards, four pedals, are completely unaccustomed to playing. I had no choice but to bite the bullet. Trying to recall the nightmares of his childhood, he practiced "Dedicated to Alice" countless times.
Composed by Beethoven in 1810, the composition is in the form of a rondo, divided into three ABC parts, with a total of 103 measures. It's good that Romeo can recall 60 bars in his brain right now.
Romeo pressed his hands softly with warm emotions, and the cheerful and gorgeous piano melody flowed through Romeo's fingertips, sometimes unrestrained and passionate, sometimes soothing and tender like a whisper between lovers.
Cinderella listened to it in a fascination and immersed herself in the world of music of her dreams, and her nervousness, inferiority complex and panic were immediately swept away.
"Practice the spell, O wind spirit that flies in the atmosphere! Give me transparent wings, fly freely in the firmament-- wind wings. “
"Oh, Flying in the atmosphere, wind, wind spirit! Give me, I, transparent wings, free, fly, fly, fly in the firmament. “
"Well, it's much better, do it again. “
Romeo patiently guides Cinderella, in the style of a speech therapist. After dozens of attempts, Cinderella finally recited a fairly complete spell, and was only one step away from success.
"It's the first time I've encountered this height of pickle girl sublimation. There are many tricks and ingenious intentions, but it's a pity that it's too wasteful to use it on a small stammer. Macuccio sighed at the table as he tapped his hand on the table.
Benjamin Kant on the left has his head down, his tongue licking desperately at the plate of the dish, almost eating it. It's too good to say, and the professional chefs in our family can't compare to it. Romeo, I still have a few younger sisters, you can pick any one and be my brother-in-law. “
"Your Roland family genes are too good, I'm afraid Romeo can't bear the weight of your sister. Macucciio laughed.
"Hmph, what's wrong with being fat, that's called plumpness. The business of our Roland Chamber of Commerce is all over the Holy Spirit Continent, and the gold coins in the family are hundreds of millions, and if someone else wants to be my brother-in-law, I won't do it. Benjamin Kant snorted.
Michucio really couldn't imagine Romeo becoming the son-in-law of the Roland family, with a ball of mutton fat in his arms, chubby, round, and plump beauty about to drip oil, the picture was so beautiful that he couldn't bear to look at it directly.
Romeo is completely immersed in the world of music, and he taps the keys faster and faster with both hands, and the notes are like flowing water, giving people a perfect enjoyment, quietly playing the passionate and romantic song "To Alice"
Cinderella's soul was also greatly soothed in the pure sound of the piano, and the sound of the incantation she recited became more and more stable, and gradually she could do it in one go.
A complete incantation blurted out, "O spirit of the wind that flies in the atmosphere! give me transparent wings, and fly freely in the firmament-- Wings of the wind",
The magic in Cinderella's body made her float gradually, and she ascended lightly and gracefully, fluttering freely around every corner of the room, her movements flowing and natural, without slowing down at all.
Her long brown hair swayed in the wind, slender and slender figure, light and elegant little face, big watery eyes like autumn water, since the death of her parents, she has not experienced this kind of floating flight for a long time, she stretched her soft body to the fullest, volleying in the air, delicate body fluttering, very rhythmic.
It was then that Mechucio noticed Cinderella's beauty, although her facial features were not as delicate as Juliet's, but she was better than her slender figure, soft and boneless, especially the slender waist that could not be grasped, and the slightly upturned breasts, all of which had a unique green temptation.
Michucio then offered his courtesy, "Romeo, you're tired of playing for so long, change me." ”
"Well, I can just take a break. Romeo got up and left the piano bench and leaned back on the couch to lie down.
Michucio played the piano in no way inferior to Romeo, a "Piano Sonata in C sharp minor", also known as "Moonlight Sonata", played like a cry, smooth and free, melodious and light, pure and sad notes seem to jump out one by one, each note is full of texture, mellow and pure.
Those who listen to Michusio's performance seem to be able to feel the sparkling surface of the lake, as well as the rippling moonlight on the lake, which is deep, quiet and romantic, with a touch of sadness and melancholy.
Cinderella's large, autumnally warm eyes stared at Micucciio silently above, the corners of her mouth slightly curled, infected by his performance, and immersed in the musical situation.
What a veteran of the love scene, Mechusio played harder, with a melancholy expression, like a prince of piano. When he finished playing, his aqua blue eyes looked at Cinderella with tenderness.
Cinderella was startled by Macuccio's sudden gaze, and her mental power was unstable, and she fell from the sky.
Fell into Romeo's arms impartially. Romeo was lying on the sofa at this time, and he was almost asleep, and Wen Xiang Nephrite was also a little overwhelmed for a while.
Cinderella's little face was so red that she was dripping blood, and she immediately moved away from Romeo's body, "I, I, I, back, back, back, back, go." Cinderella was nervous, stammering at almost every word.
Yes, the night was in vain. "I'll send you back, it's not safe for you to go back alone. Romeo said softly.
"I'll just send it. "Michusio is not active in other things, and Micha, who escorted the girl back, will never delay.
"You better save it, I won't come back at night, you don't have to leave the door for me. As soon as he finished speaking, Romeo and Cinderella went out together.
"Hey, you beast, be careful that Juliet knows. Macuccio stood behind and yelled unwillingly.
At night, the Holy Dream Academy is magnificent and dreamy, with a brilliant light projected by tall magic lamps every ten meters, a bit like the lanterns used for the decoration of the song floor and dance hall, with bright and colorful colors, like a seven-colored rainbow.
There are many couples snuggled under the lamp, men and women wearing magic robes of different colors, or hugging or kissing, the scene is lingering and ambiguous. Cinderella, after all, was young, and she kept her head down and followed him silently.
