Chapter 77: Preparing for the End (5K) (End of Volume)
For the next few weeks, it was an endless loop, with little special change.
After the Friday night concert, Fu Tiao went straight back to the Haicheng Conservatory of Music to try to practice and try to learn the things He Shen had talked about in music before.
Keep yourself in a state of learning and don't stagnate at all.
And when it came to Wednesday night, Fu Diao looked at the situation and decided whether to take the high-speed train to the destination or take a plane directly to the destination.
Fu Tiao still has the money for transportation, after all, he has received so much money from the concert hall in Warsaw before, and he has been putting it in his pocket and has not moved.
Looking at this situation now, I just exchanged this money for a little bit and followed He Shen to fly around in China.
When I arrived at the destination on Wednesday night or Thursday morning, for example, I went to Wucheng in Zhongzhou, and He Shen took Fu Diao and the two of them to go directly to the direction of Wucheng Conservatory of Music.
It was precisely because of his previous experience in Jiangzhou that He Shen specially followed those people from the conservatory and told them not to send a car to pick them up.
The two of them just took the subway to the bus directly and arrived at the Wucheng Conservatory of Music.
After arriving, he didn't rest, but took Fu Diao directly to meet with the local teachers, and talked with many teachers about music and some education methods.
Fu Tiao sat quietly beside He Shen and listened to the conversations of those teachers, seriously thinking about the things that were worth paying attention to in their chat.
For example, in Wucheng, Zhongzhou, someone talked to He Shen about the latest music teaching method they had thought about there, and the combination of teaching methodology.
They chatted very happily in this place, but Fu Diao was a little confused.
The man sitting next to He Shen spread his hands and said to He Shen casually.
"Teacher He, you have to remember that everyone has their own thinking about different needs and interests in life, and these needs and interests will be integrated into their lives, so as to build a connection between students and the world in life, you must consider the motivational factors of learning music, use the connection between internal and external, eliminate the difference between internal motivation and external motivation, help students combine music creation with the living environment, and make thinking about music a thing for students to eat. Let these foods move, shape, and develop in a way that suits the student's environment, constructing the cultural field opened up by music, but it should be remembered that there must be no ethical requirements in classical constructivist pedagogy. ”
“?”
Fu Diao could understand every word, but when combined with the suitability, Fu Diao was a little confused, and he didn't understand what the person sitting next to He Shen was talking about.
What classical constructivism teaches? What are the internal and external motivations of music?
The motive of the music is still known, but this musical motive and the musical motive he hears now, if he is not mistaken, should not be the same thing, right?
Fu Diao looked at He Shen, who seemed to be very clear about this, and kept nodding.
"Yes, you're right, teachers must take into account the autonomy of students in learning, as well as connectivity, which is the essential need satisfaction of the anthropological framework of motivation, based on the most basic needs of biology, through autonomy to self-determination or co-determination. In order to achieve this goal, we should focus on the content, the method, the media, and most importantly, so that they can have an independent experience of music, and in this direction, autonomy actually means that a performer has the most personal experience and expression of music. Autonomy of self-discovery experiences and behaviors versus the journey of social integration......"
“……”
Fu Tiao became even more numb when he heard this place, and he always felt that the current He Shen and the He Shen he had seen before seemed to be the same person at all.
In the past, He Shen could at least speak a little human language, but now He Shen doesn't seem to even know how to speak human words.
What autonomy? What connectivity? What personal expression experience?
It's still that all the words are separate and can be understood, but they are connected together, let alone understood, and it is excellent if you can skip these words at a glance.
However, these things are still some inconspicuous experiences, and He Shen and Fu Diao's goal is not to focus on these discussions.
After discussing some things about music education, they went directly to the concert hall with Fu Tune, waiting for the evening performance.
At this point, just like a master class on the Jiangzhou side, Fu Diao tried his best to release all his understanding of music on the stage, while He Shen was responsible for playing with Fu Diao, helping Fu Diao solve some of his shortcomings in music as much as possible.
Although He Shen has tried his best to explain those musical terms as clearly as possible in the following courses, because the level of Fu Diao and He Shen is slightly higher, it is higher than all the students and even some teachers who are currently under the stage.
Therefore, they listened to He Shen's master class under the stage, and they always had an inexplicable feeling.
It's like when He Shen was discussing the teaching method with the teachers in the school before, Fu Diao sat next to He Shen.
Every word can be understood, after all, He Shen's words are relatively clear.
But when the words were connected, they found that they could not understand a single word.
This feeling is extremely uncomfortable for them, but there is a pleasant feeling of knowledge pouring into their brains.
Two completely conflicting feelings collided in their brains, making their emotions change extremely strangely, and they didn't know whether they should be excited or uncomfortable at this time.
However, these have nothing to do with Fu Diao and He Shen, and the two of them are very happy to play all the content prepared by Fu Diao at the Chopin International Piano Competition in turn, and try to find their own shortcomings in musical performance as much as possible.
Time passed quickly, July was coming to an end, and He Shen took Fu and the two of them to almost all the conservatories in Huaguo and had an unknown number of exchanges.
He Shen stood in his piano room, looked at the piano room that had been cleaned up, breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Fu Diao, and couldn't help but smile.
"Okay, this semester's classes are over here, and the next semester you will know, I have submitted my resignation to the school, and the music academies of several other countries have also given me employment offers from their schools."
After that, He Shen took out a few letters from his briefcase as if showing off and displayed them in front of Fu Diao.
"No, you see, the Curtis Institute of Music, but I won't go to the Curtis Institute of Music, where there are Lang Liangyue's brothers and sisters, I didn't have any meaning in the past, the Juilliard School can be considered, but compared to Julia, I actually prefer the Manhattan School of Music, after all, they give a high salary, and I can directly get a professor's title in the past."
"When the time comes, I'll be there!" He Shen smiled very happily, but his eyes looked at the other letters in his hand, and he was a little regretful for a while.
"But the place I really want to go to is the German Conservatory, UdK, oh, you don't know what UdK is, UdK is the abbreviation of Berlin University of the Arts, they also sent me invitations, and the Cologne Conservatory of Music and Dance, the Munich Conservatory of Music and Drama, they all sent me invitations to those places, but it's a pity that ......"
He Shen shook his head and smiled helplessly at Fu Diao: "Although they pay great attention to academic research and the expression of music by performers, to be honest, if they want to become a full professor on their side, it is much more difficult than ours...... the old man! ”
He Shen's expression was extremely sad and indignant: "Who would have thought that the title of professor on the German side will be obtained, you need to survive a professor before you have a chance to get it, if I go to line up now, although I don't have to be too intrigued, but when I get it, I may be seventy or eighty years old!" This Germany really is! ”
After that, He Shen sighed deeply: "But also, the professor over there in Germany has a lot of power, if you want to get in, it's really difficult, don't think about it too much, Fu Diao, you work hard, send me a message when you go back to the beautiful country, I'll invite you to dinner!" Or if you want to study in a beautiful country after the competition, you can also contact me and I will arrange for you to enter the Manhattan School of Music. ”
"But...... After all, when you win the Chopin International Piano Competition and are ready to settle down to study your own music, the best professors in the world will come to you to see if they can take you to their school, become your industry leader, and take you to become a professional musician. ”
"At that time, if you really become famous in one fell swoop, don't forget your teacher and I He Shen."
Fu Tiao looked at He Shen and nodded slightly: "Okay." ”
"That's what you said, I didn't force you!"
"Hmm."
"Okay, I'll see you later."
Fu Tiao just watched He Shen pack up his luggage, return the key to the piano room aunt downstairs, and walked to the school gate.
A not-so-luxurious, but incomparably soft, red Mercedes-Benz GLC200 stopped at the entrance of the school, and a familiar face with sunglasses emerged from the slowly descending glass.
It's Zhao Zitong.
Zhao Zitong looked at Fu Diao He Shen who was standing at the door, and immediately smiled and waved his hand.
"Teacher He, over here, I'll open the trunk for you, just put your luggage in the trunk yourself."
"You...... What are you doing here? ”
He Shen's original expression with a trace of sentimentality froze instantly, he looked at the slightly flamboyant red Mercedes-Benz, and the figure full of youth and vitality in the main driving position, and then glanced at the expressions of the people around him looking at him.
I don't know why, he always feels like he's become a guy who eats soft rice.
I'm a classical musician myself!
"Nonsense, you're planning to go to a beautiful country, I'm not here to see you off?"
"Send me, who knows if you want to send me or the sun......"
He Shen looked at Zhao Zitong and couldn't help muttering a few words, and honestly put his luggage on her car.
I was just about to go to the door behind the door, but I found that the door behind me was locked, and after trying for a long time, I could only sit obediently on the co-pilot, and I was picked up by Zhao Zitong like an angry little daughter-in-law.
Fu Tiao shrugged his shoulders as he watched the two of them leave, and continued to return to the piano room to practice and consolidate his music.
Wait for the September flight to Poland.
In the days that followed, Fu Tiao's life became more pure, and he spent every day practicing the piano and on the way to the piano room.
He was left with only two points and one line between the piano room and the dormitory, and everything else was abandoned.
Life was extremely uneventful.
At the same time, the contestants elsewhere are almost indistinguishable from Fu Tunes, and all of them are making final preparations to consolidate their music.
In the last month, even if you can improve, you won't be able to improve much.
Instead of continuing to think about how to improve and how to make your music more perfect, it is better to consolidate what you have learned before.
Let yourself not make mistakes in some details, resulting in imperfect musical performance.
……
Toei Tokyo
Kobayashi Aimi stood in front of the rooftop of the room, her fingers dangling aimlessly in the air, as if there was an empty keyboard there for her to play as she pleased.
She just stared at Tokyo Tower in the distance, not knowing what she was thinking.
Although she is called the piano princess of Dongying, she actually doesn't think she can be called a princess.
At the end of the day, she's just an ordinary performer.
Everyone called her Princess Dongying, which made her psychological pressure extremely huge, and she even felt a trace of fear and fear.
She definitely wanted to go to the highest level, and everyone felt that she would definitely go to the highest level.
But......
She didn't know if she would be able to climb to which level.
The wind seems to have changed this year, and although it is said that it is blowing on its side, in reality, it may not be completely favorable.
And this year's players seem to be all strong.
As far as she knows, there are many contestants who study with the judges of the Chopin International Piano Competition at Jiama University, such as those who study with Deng Taishan, and their level will be more in line with the judges' aesthetics than themselves.
There are also players from South Korea, who used to be just a subsidiary of their Dongying, but I didn't expect it to develop so well now.
Even their classical music players are getting better and better, and the number of players is growing.
Obviously, South Korea is also a very favorable contender this year.
As for Hua Guo......
Kobayashi didn't pay much attention to it.
The players on Huaguo's side thought that they would spring up like mushrooms, but who would have thought that after only two or three players, there would be no more top-level players.
In previous editions, there were even fewer finalists.
Although a large number of people from China have entered the qualifiers and main competitions of the Chopin International Piano Competition this year, how many can really enter the second, third, and final rounds?
She didn't feel like it was much.
She danced her fingers so casually, felt the rhythm of the music in her heart, and looked at Tokyo Tower in the distance, her expression was extremely indifferent.
Knock Knock......
There was a knock on the door of the house, and Kobayashi Aimi was stunned for a moment, then jumped off the chair with a little excitement and went to open the door.
A man with a round face, neatly combed hair, and pigtails at the back of his head appeared from behind the door, carrying a bouquet of flowers in his hand.
"Aishi-chan~ Congratulations on entering the main competition of the Chopin International Piano Competition! How's it going? How's the preparation going? ”
"Anti-Tian-kun." Kobayashi Aishi was extremely surprised to take the flowers from Kyohei Tanta's hand and inserted them in the glass bottle in the room, then turned around and leaned against the counter, tilted his head and looked at him with a smile: "You came a little late, my documentaries have already been released by NHK people, and you came, so you sent me a flower to apologize?" ”
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, you know, I'm preparing my solo concert tour recently, and all 2,000 advance tickets for a single show have been sold, and I'm worried that something will go wrong, and I forgot to ...... when I was busy."
Kyohei Tanda scratched his head and said with a smile, he walked to Kobayashi Aishi's side, looked at her, and asked curiously, "By the way, you didn't practice the piano?" Are you ready for the race? ”
"Well, the game is almost ready, and it won't change if it continues."
"In this way, I really envy you, you can participate in the Chopin International Piano Competition, and when you win the ranking, you can be regarded as a real piano princess!"
"Hey, you're laughing at me again, obviously your Chopin is also very good, my friends at Tokyo University of the Arts have heard your name, if you go to the Chopin International Piano Competition, you may be able to get a better score than me!"
"I can't help it, I've been busy forgetting about it lately, I'm still touring in April, and I don't have time to participate in the Chopin International Piano Competition." Kyohei Tanda was helpless.
He looked at Kobayashi Aishi, thought for a while, and suddenly raised his hand and said, "In this way, I promise you!" ”
"Huh? What is guaranteed? ”
"If you don't win the first place this year, and you want to continue to participate in the Chopin International Piano Competition next year, how about I sign up with you and challenge the Chopin Competition together? If you can't get the ranking, I'll help you get it! ”
"Okay, you, you're cursing me for not ranking well this year, right? Hum! ”
Aimi Kobayashi bit at Kyohei Tanda with her teeth and claws, and after the two fought for a while, they lay on the sofa at the same time, looking at Tokyo Tower in the distance, Kyohei Tanda sighed.
"But to be honest, Ai-chan, what exactly do you think about the game, are you really not that sure?"
"Who knows?" Kobayashi Aishi looked at the starry sky in the distance, and after making his body more comfortable, he said softly.
"In the face of the Chopin International Piano Competition, in the face of countless top players from all over the world, who can say that they are the strongest?"
"Even if it is Huaguo, didn't there be a top pianist more than ten years ago? Before that year, who regarded Huaguo as an opponent? ”
Tanda Kyohei was silent, hesitated for a long time, reached out and put his arm around Kobayashi Aishi's shoulder, and sighed softly.
"yes, who can guarantee that they will win the championship."
"Even if it's those people...... No one dares to claim to be invincible. ”
