Chapter Twenty-Nine: An Unusually Terrifying Preliminary Round

The audience had already entered the Grand Concert Hall of the Mozambican Conservatory, and Mr. and Mrs. Spa had arrived after receiving Klaus's letter and sat down next to André.

Jost and Klaus were backstage, and dozens of pianists received invitations, but only about 20 actually arrived.

There seemed to be some well-known pianists all around, and Jost was the worst of them.

However, with the bonus of buff, Jost has no stage fright, and there is no void.

But after watching the first person play, he knew he was going to change his strategy.

"Winter Wind", which can only be regarded as a bounce, must have died miserably.

What I can do now is to rely on my own originality.

Although it is still very likely to be eliminated, after all, it is a young pianist who wants to be selected, but it will definitely arouse the interest of the judges, as long as it can do this, it is easy to say.

Everyone only has about 5 minutes to show their skills, so everyone chooses the tracks that best show their skills when choosing tracks.

The person in front has just finished playing Moonlight 3, which can be said to be very perfect, which invisibly brings some pressure to these top pianists.

Some people who are also preparing to play Moonlight 3 think that they are not as good as themselves, so they can only change the song temporarily.

Jost was still very calmly observing the people around him, and next to him was a man moving his fingers.

The fingers were so flexible and slender that Joost felt a little less like a human finger.

Looking back, he saw a very quiet young man, who seemed to be a foreigner, with blonde hair and blue eyes very calm.

When the man noticed Jost's gaze, he smiled very warmly, and smiled like Mimi's eyes.

Jost, on the contrary, had a feeling that something was wrong with him.

Looking back, there was a very pale man, his entire lips were white, he looked very empty, and his hair was slightly thinning. He seemed a little nervous, and there was no look in his eyes.

Jost then observed the reactions of the others one by one, mostly ignoring Jost, and some of them smiled back kindly.

A voice rang in Jost's ear.

"Did you get an invitation at such a young age?" It was the blonde foreigner, with a smile and a standard E accent.

The silence was shattered by this question, and everyone turned their attention to this side.

"That's amazing. Can I make a friend? ”

Jost politely replied in E: "I'm sorry, I don't know E. ”

Speaking very fluently, it can be said to be standard.

Klaus laughed out loud with a very faceless smile.

A few pianists from country F also laughed and talked in F, but the people of country E were still so arrogant, thinking that the whole world had to say that they had to talk about E, as well as some bad jokes.

The blonde man still kept his smile narrow: "That's really a pity. ”

Saying that, nothing happened to the bento and sat back in his place.

It's just that Jost felt a malice reflecting on him.

Really!

Squinting is not a good thing.

Jost was also on guard at this time, and at the same time quietly touched Klaus's hand to remind Klaus that he felt that there was something wrong with this person.

Having already seen quite a few stand-ins, Jost thought he had a knack for identifying them.

This man had a disgusting internal smell, which was most conspicuous in the crowd, and Jost felt that he was another stand-in messenger.

The blonde man was still smiling on the surface, but in his heart he remembered all the people who laughed at him, and of course the culprit Jost.

At this time, the pale-faced man with kidney deficiency had already entered, and he played the same work that Joost had first prepared to play—Chopin's "Etude for the Winter Wind".

Jost began to listen too.

I saw that the virtual man was bent over his waist and stretched his neck, and the judges on the stage frowned a little at this time.

This pose is just too ugly.

With a slight trembling hand, he stretched out his right hand and seemed to press the keys very carefully and with difficulty.

33334313。

Then the left hand is extended in the same way, and the second bar note is played.

Klaus gasped at this time: "Master." ”

Everyone else got serious at this point.

For ordinary piano players, the simplest part of this piece is the first two bars.

But for the performer, the most difficult thing to deal with is precisely the first two bars.

As soon as the beginning comes out, you will know what level it is.

Really!

Like a silver bottle bursting, the violent winter wind instantly broke through the window.

An audience member seemed to be frightened by the sudden winter wind and let out an exclamation.

It was the best "Winter Wind" Joost had ever heard, and he felt better than Klaus played, and seemed to have melted into his soul.

At this time, all the judges felt as if they were in the ice and snow, facing the wind, and were about to be blown away by the wind.

An oppressive force swept through everyone on the field.

At this point, no one cared about his slumped back.

In more than 3 minutes, his performance ended, and the audience erupted in warm applause.

Klaus also patted Joost on the shoulder and whispered, "Change the tune." ”

Jost nodded, indicating that he already knew.

The winter wind of others is a huge cold snap in Siberia, so their own winter wind is really just a wind that blows very quickly.

He was going to play "Wild Bee Flying" as the first song.

As for whether the second song is not, I will say something else.

At this time, the blonde man seemed to be a little emotional, and for some reason, Jost was flustered with laughter.

But now his focus has turned to the pale man who had just finished the race.

Then there was the unremarkable man next to Jost, who kept moving his fingers.

Jost's very familiar note came to his ears, it was Paganini's melody.

One of the judges took a deep breath: "Paganini/Liszt Etude Etude No. 6. ”

"This piece is considered impossible for human beings." Andre saw that Spa didn't seem to understand why the people around him were surprised, and explained on the side.

And the people around him, unaware that he was talking.

"When Liszt heard a Paganini concert, he was immediately inspired, and seemed to have found his own artistic path, and he memorized music frantically in the audience, so he arranged a series of piano pieces."

"This adaptation of Paganini's Caprice No. 24 is considered one of the most difficult."

"Liszt, the octopus monster, seems to have forgotten that humans only need 10 fingers."

Seeing on the stage, the flying and stretched fingers are completing tricks that are almost impossible for humans to complete.

"It is said that Schumann's wife, Clara, who was also a pianist, was so sad that she cried over this piece." Olympia also whispered some interesting things.

"How do you know?" Spa whispered.

But it immediately caused dissatisfaction around it.

He shrugged his shoulders and didn't speak again.

The judge's mouth had grown at this time, and the pen in his hand didn't know when it fell.

Klaus's expression also became serious, he had planned to play Liszt's "Bell", but it was also a technical work, and it was very likely that he would be eliminated if he played it later.

Now he has to find another way.

Originally, he was very confident in his piano level, but now he suddenly felt a lot of pressure.

The pale man from before, including this mediocre man with fingers and erasers, was terrifyingly strong.

Where did so many perverts come from!?
