Guan Hao also found out that Anthony ordered his subordinates to go out, and he didn't know what the other party would do.

At present, he can only wait and see what happens, passively accept the other party's challenge, and see Anthony's appearance of being determined to win, Guan Hao has no bottom in his heart.

Before the banquet began, Lily told Guan Hao that there would be a competition between music and wine tasting at the dinner party, so that Guan Hao could prepare in advance, especially in terms of music performance, pay attention, because the opponent John Anthony should not be underestimated, he was born in a professional class, and he is very proficient in music, as for the wine tasting link, Guan Hao does not have to worry, Lily will cooperate with him.

After a while, the master of ceremonies of the dinner party walked up to the stage, picked up the microphone and said to the hundreds of guests: "Ladies and gentlemen, hello everyone! Next, I would like to invite Mr. Anthony from M City. He's going to bring us a classic piece of "Five Hundred Miles," and I'll give you a brief introduction: John Anthony, a 22-year-old graduate of the Curtis Institute of Music, is the most promising young talent of our John family in M City, and currently runs the John family's King's Bar in M City, and is still unmarried. Well, let's give Mr. John Anthony a round of applause. ”

Curtis Institute of Music is one of the world's top music schools, it can be said to be a palace-level music school, aiming to educate and cultivate young musicians with great talent and potential, with strict admission qualifications, and only 100 people are admitted every year.

It's rare to be able to study at such an international university.

John Anthony wore a well-cut white suit and a traditional white top hat in M City, and walked on the stage politely, taking off his politeness as soon as he came on stage, and gave everyone a beautiful and graceful hat salute.

John Anthony immediately attracted the attention of many people, and it can be said that he was out of the limelight.

John Anthony's music is "Five Hundred Miles", born in the sixties, and is one of the most widely sung A ballads, and is also known as one of the best.

The lyrics tell the lament of a traveler who is far from home, penniless, and ashamed to return home. Coupled with the beautiful melody, natural and fresh, and the lyrics are simple and repetitive but poetic, it has been loved by people since its birth.

The original piece was soundtracked by a guitar and sung by a bass, but John Anthony removed the singing part and replaced it with a saxophone solo in order to reflect his own musical skills.

Anyone who understands music knows that the saxophone playing style is delicate and euphemistic, fresh and melodious, with smooth rhythm, beautiful timbre, full and mellow, deep and calm bass, clear and transparent treble, full of emotion, and full of artistic appeal.

John Anthony's saxophone solo began, when the high-pitched and loud melody of the saxophone sounded, this romantic melody, with the wind, tender feelings, deeply touching. The beautiful melody echoes in the ears, giving people a mesmerizing beauty enjoyment.

The song "Five Hundred Miles" mesmerized everyone present with a unique saxophone solo, and John Anthony won the most enthusiastic applause from the audience.

When it was Guan Hao's turn to appear, the master of ceremonies solemnly introduced Guan Hao as usual: "Thank you again Mr. Anthony for his unparalleled performance, his skillful saxophone solo for the perfect interpretation of this classic work, gentlemen and ladies!" Then we will solemnly invite the next guest to perform, he is from the far East, an ancient family, he is the first person from China C to be invited to our open barrel music festival, and he is the first guest to perform at the dinner, he will give us a piece of "Rachmaninov Piano Concerto No. 3" Let us please Guan Hao with the warmest applause, Mr. Guan! ”

When Guan Hao heard the introduction of himself, he walked out of the backstage slowly without hurrying, because he was going to play the piano, and the staff was pushing the piano up, and Guan Hao had not been able to come up on the stage, so Guan Hao hugged his fists and gave the scene a classic Baduanjin.

This happened to cause a wave of kung fu fever in country A, and Guan Hao's movements like flowing clouds and rivers also caused a sensation at the scene, and everyone rushed to imitate it.

Guan Hao is a good warm-up.

The piano was sent, and Guan Hao's Baduanjin was finished, Guan Hao sat on the piano bench unhurriedly, simply adjusted the piano, and began to play.

Anyone who plays the piano knows that the most difficult piano piece in the world is Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 3.

Guan Hao tuned his tone, closed his eyes, and first laid it out silently in his heart, and after about a minute, he stretched out his hands and moved his fingers, under the illumination of the spotlights, Guan Hao's white and slender fingers looked so elegant and full of beauty.

The Steinway & Sons grand piano is a bit old, but it doesn't detract from her world-class performance.

Guan Hao was completely immersed in his own emotional world, with intoxicated emotions, with his Qianqian jade hand on the keyboard to play himself, only to see: the staggered black and white keys are pregnant with a variety of different beautiful music, gently touch a group of Hyun, Hyun vibrates out of incredible music, the piano is so charming, it is quaint, vivid, any sound you don't expect can be expressed on the clean black and white keys, and the pedal, maybe that is not noticeable, but it sublimates the soul of the music, when the hands fall on the keys to play the music, That's an ink painting.

Guan Hao used both hands to straddle the keyboard at the beginning of the 14-degree difficult movement, and Guan Hao has a pair of wonderful big hands that span 14 degrees.

Anyone who understands music knows that it is very difficult for the piano keyboard to span more than an octave, and such a pair of God's hands can almost play the world's most difficult music, and can challenge all the music with a large musical span and difficult technique. Guan Hao had already turned the piano into a symphony orchestra by this time, and he deliberately performed Liszt's original symphonic poem.

Now Guan Hao has detonated the guests who came to be a band, because Guan Hao almost replaced a band with one hand, which shows the infinite magic contained in the small piano keyboard.

Guan Hao played the No. 1 piano piece "Rachmaninov Piano Concerto No. 3", which is known as the world's most difficult piano piece, and the "Rachmaninov Piano Concerto No. 3", known as the magic piece, is a divine comedy composed by Rachmaninov, a native of E.

When Rachmaninov premiered it in New York, he also dubbed his concerto "an elephant's work" as a metaphor for its size and heaviness. In many respects, La 3 is an extension of the composer's masterpiece La 2 (Piano Concerto No. 2 in C minor), but the former is obviously much more difficult to play than the latter.

Now Guan Hao is playing the world's hardest divine comedy with his magical hands, and now the audience is immediately boiling.

The whole Divine Comedy is divided into three movements: the first movement

A free sonata form that is not too fast. Although the whole concerto Guan Hao played the strings and bass pipes on the piano, the soft prelude made people very comfortable. Under this velvety prelude, the piano expresses the simple and light first theme of the E folk song in octaves. The theme is far-reaching and long-lasting, expanding in its narrowness and meandering, rippling in the most rustic style of Russia. Then the center of gravity shifts to the orchestra, the piano is decorated, and the complex sound patterns shimmer like grains. After a brief subsidence, the clarinet and horn take on a new motive, revealing a sense of serenity and high-pitchedness in the richness, intertwining with the piano melody to form the material elements of the second theme. Then the piano inserts a calm, undulating lyrical passage and a fluid combination of comfort and warmth, and the sonorous melody of the piano is unforgettable, but the first prologue has already made the audience crazy.

To the second piece, the intermezzle, the variations, the three-part. The intermezzo is heavily associated with the first theme of the concerto. In the first section, with the strings ethereal and mournful, the oboe expresses the thematic material of the theme, which is tactfully similar to the first theme, and suddenly, the piano joins in the form of a triplet rhapsody, shifting to D flat major, and the piano plays romantic, warm music, a little lonely and lonely. Entering the middle section, it is more lively, the left hand of the piano unfolds a chromatic glissando, the right hand is a powerful chord, which is full of indiscriminate wildness, and the melody derived from the first theme of the first movement of the clarinet and bass wind gradually turns into a slow movement, and the piano is accompanied by a chromatic melody like a song but hesitates.

The third movement is in the sonata form of the finale. The whole movement is like seven demons possessed, and the earth flames are fluttering in the court, with the most difficult technique from hell, and it is also the pinnacle of the whole piece. Guan Hao first played the rhythm of the march with the piano, the piano played the first theme vigorously and precisely, flexible but energetic, after a few repetitions, the speed was faster, in the firm rhythm of the orchestra with the piano with difficult and complicated fast chords, back and forth several times, under the piano first low and then high powerful chords and orchestral accompaniment, the atmosphere of the music gradually pushed to the climax. After a superficial pause in the high-pitched and tenacious musical progression, the piano moves forward with an extremely fast syncopated rhythm, and finally falls abruptly into the lyrical second theme, which forms a rapid group of Allegro in romantic but high-altitude layers, which eases down, and immediately follows the development caused by the orchestra, a scherzo in E-flat major, and the piano floats with great interest, until the orchestra plays the deformation of the first theme, and the piano is decorated with treble.

Then there is the melody after the refinement of the first movement, the mood deepens, the piano develops alone, the tempo is faster, and after a short wide board in which the orchestra and piano intertwine, the piano restores the theme of the first movement more lyrically, and then the lively and fast clusters, until the piano timbre dissipates like a dancing girl in the bewildered veil, and the music takes a turn again, and all the variations of the first part of the movement are played, only more enthusiastically, and in the melody of the piano from low to high and the harmonies of the orchestra gradually enriched, the music is raised again step by step, The orchestra and piano chords come to an abrupt halt in their interweaving, and then enter the finale, in which the orchestra rhythmically sets off, the piano performs a sonorous octave rapidity, the climax of the orchestra's ascension, the piano's descending ornamentation, the fullness, the high lyricism, the high satisfaction, or the brilliance of a true concerto. After the peak, it ends powerfully in a rush but not a rush.

Guan Hao played the Divine Comedy almost frantically, and the person collapsed suddenly, endured his weakness, and got up to thank all the guests!

As soon as he leaned over, he was too tired, and he was about to fall on the stage as soon as it was dark, and Lily, who was on the side of the stage, stepped onto the stage with a quick arrow and was about to help Guan Hao.

At this time, Cook, as Guan Hao's inseparable bodyguard, took a step forward and stepped onto the stage to help Guan Hao. Guan Hao had returned to normal and whispered to Cook, "Brother, I'm fine, I did it on purpose." ”

Guan Hao had already calculated in his heart that he not only wanted to win his opponent in terms of skills, but also won sympathy points, pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger.
