Chapter 207: A Unique Fu Tune Ballade

Chopin's first piano ballade, Fu Tune is not the first time he has played it, and he seems to have played it more than once in his memory, and he has also played it at the Chopin International Piano Competition before, that is, in the second round.

The Chopin he decided this time is divided into two batches, the first half is Chopin's entire ballade, the first ballade and the fourth ballade.

He played the first Ballade in the second round, and the Third Ballade in the qualifiers.

Although he always felt a little naΓ―ve and full of power when he recalled the third ballade he played at that time, this work helped him qualify for the main round of the Chopin International Piano Competition.

He has not yet played the second and fourth ballades, but in his spare time, he took the score and read it slowly, and then tried to practice.

As for putting it on stage for everyone to enjoy......

He hasn't done that yet.

This is especially true of Chopin's Etude Op25 set.

Compared with previous concerts, these works are more challenging for Fu Tune.

It's just that this challenge is just a challenge after all, and the moment Fu Diao's fingers fell on the piano keyboard, an extremely heavy, sad, painful, confused, like a sense of loneliness in the deep sea, slowly flowed out of his fingers.

This beauty directly shattered everyone's imagination of Chopin, Chopin's first piano ballade, and everyone looked at Fu Tune who was standing on the stage with a little surprise, and couldn't believe what they had just heard.

A combination of ethereal and silent, you can hear a myriad of apparently contradictory sensations in Fu's first piano ballade.

It's not a simple traditional interpretation, you can hear from Fu's performance that his thinking about Chopin is not simple.

Many people would have thought that Chopin's first piano ballade begins with a very simple sadness, but this is not the case.

Normally, as a narrative piece, when Chopin writes a new work, he does not use music to interpret his story, but to interpret a long poem with music.

In other words, what he composes is more like a soundtrack of poetry than a self-analysis.

To a large extent, the idea of this work should be the feeling that this poem should contain.

But......

Fu tunes that he doesn't think like this.

He is not thinking about what this work is expressing in his own way of reading long poems, but thinking about what Chopin thinks this work should express.

After constructing a complete Chopin logic, he used his own way to present Chopin's thoughts and thoughts again.

Thus it becomes Chopin's first piano ballade presented in front of everyone, full of Fu tune's personal characteristics.

Zhao Chengzhen sat there listening to Fu Tune's performance, his body couldn't help but stiffen, and then he slowly trembled, and his pupils lit up.

Sure enough, just as he had thought.

Fu tunes that he is a monster.

An ever-evolving monster.

It may have been more than a month since the last time Fu played Chopin's First Piano Ballade in public, that is, the version that Fu played in the second round of the Chopin International Piano Competition.

What is this concept?

Normally, more than a month for a professional pianist may be the time to hone one one or two works, and their level will not change dramatically in this period of more than a month.

Normally, it may take half a year or even a year to prepare a set of works that can be used for touring.

As for the works participating in the competition, they basically start in two years.

In other words, the works they come up with that can be shown to everyone are basically the best they can achieve after more than half a year of preparation.

It can even be said that they are sure that if they practice for a few more months, they will not grow at all.

That's it!

This is why many champions of the Chopin International Piano Competition, or other competitions, have to trim up after the competition, and precipitate everything they have gained, and if they are lucky, they will come back after more than half a year, and if they are unlucky, they will come back for three or four years, until a rainstorm ruins their artistic dreams.

And now......

Fu Tune's music proves Zhao Chengzhen's imagination of Fu Tune.

In the flow of the Naples six chords at the beginning, there are three or four completely different ways of understanding the musical expression that Zhao Chengzhen hears, and each of them can be perfectly matched with the performance of Fu tune.

It's not that he has a strong ability to associate, but these ...... It's all the imagination space given to them by Fu Diao.

Everything they could think of was under Fu Tuo's control, and Fu Tuo was playing with it arbitrarily.

This feeling directly made Zhao Chengzhen's goosebumps rise, and he couldn't help but rub his arm.

The Fu tune is improving, and Chopin at the Chopin International Piano Competition was not the strongest Chopin in the Chopin Tune, and even now it is ...... It's not Chopin, who has the strongest Fu tune.

Even if it is said that Chopin is already the first echelon of the group of people, it may only be a few steps away from those at the top.

But now Chopin, who is in tune with Fu Tune, is still very likely not to be his strongest state.

Because...... Fu Tune is still transforming and evolving.

Since the end of the Chopin International Piano Competition, Fu Diao has been on a very correct path without any stops, as if out of control, crazy towards the front.

lingering, soft, bleak, docile......

His fingers flowed slowly on the piano, like a cry, and each note was far more soft than anyone could have imagined.

Obviously they were just sitting in their chairs, obviously just listening to Fu Tune's performance, but for some reason, they always felt like they were about to run water.

I felt like there were ants crawling all over my body.

Even to use a very old sentence, Fu's music is almost pregnant when they listen to it.

Why would anyone play such a beautiful sound? Why would anyone play music with such a strong sense of beauty?

Is this an ordinary pianist, not one of the top people in the world?

Zhao Chengzhen was next to him, that is, the person who had been slightly questioning Fu Diao before, and his eyes were about to pop out at this moment.

"Wait? Is this Fu? This is the winner of this year's Chopin International Piano Competition? Not the previous one? Not the 2005, or 2010 champions? ”

"Of course not."

Zhao Chengzhen seemed to be able to feel the excitement of the person next to him, and didn't care about his previous faux pas, but chuckled, rubbing the goosebumps on his arm, and said casually.

"His level is much better than the level he had in the second round of the Chopin International Piano Competition a little over a month ago, when he had just found his own way, and now he is running wild on his own music."

"So...... How strong was he before? The man couldn't help but be stunned, and asked Zhao Chengzhen hesitantly.

Zhao Chengzhen didn't care, and said directly: "Probably...... It's eight out of five now. ”

"Eighty out of five ......"

The man didn't know what to say, and he looked in disbelief at the Fu tune being played on the stage in front of him.

At this moment, Fu has played the middle and back of Chopin's first piano ballade, and the throbbing in his heart is getting stronger and stronger.

He couldn't imagine how Fu Tune could make such beautiful music.

Whether in Paris or elsewhere in concert halls, he felt like he hadn't heard Chopin like this for a long time.

You know, compared to other schools, their French school is best at Chopin's soft music.

This is one of the main reasons why Cho Sung-jin was considered the favorite by so many people before the Chopin International Piano Competition.

First of all, Zhao Chengzhen is already strong, and the faction he belongs to is still Chopin's top batch of French schools, how could he not win the championship?

As a result, a Fu tune was born.

The man originally thought that it might be Cho Sung-jin's abnormal level performance or something that caused Cho Sung-jin to lose the title of champion.

But he never thought that Fu was too strong.

is so powerful that he even feels that he and Fu Tiao are not necessarily comparable to Chopin.

Thinking of this place, he couldn't help but glance at Zhao Chengzhen, who was looking at Fu Tune seriously, and suddenly whispered.

"Zhao, I'm sorry ......"

"Huh? What's wrong? Zhao Chengzhen turned his head in confusion: "What's sorry?" ”

"I didn't expect Fu's strength to be so strong, so strong."

At this point, he couldn't help but shudder.

A small chord solution played by Fu Tune just now was directly solved in his heart, and he almost didn't pee out when he listened to it.

The painful, desolate, and cold timbre was like sinking into the sea and losing one's existence.

It's just too much......

It's so beautiful!

He couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, patted Zhao Chengzhen on the shoulder, glanced at him with a sympathetic expression, and quickly added.

"It's really hard for you, you actually need to compete on the same stage with such a monster, I really don't blame you for losing, it's just that Fu is too strong."

With that, he quickly returned to his position and sat precariously looking at Fu Diao.

Seeing this person's performance, Zhao Chengzhen was stunned at first, and then almost didn't laugh angrily.

Although he lost to Fu Diao, he is not as powerless as he imagined, right? I was able to play back and forth with Fu Diao, and even the first half was not inferior to Fu Diao.

In the first round and the second round, he can even be regarded as a stabilizer.

That is, the third and fourth rounds begin......

Zhao Chengzhen couldn't help but pause when she thought of this, and then muttered a little in her heart.

The third and fourth rounds were counter-suppressed, which can be regarded as a head-on confrontation, right?

Zhao Chengzhen quickly shook his head, too lazy to continue to think about it, and continued to immerse himself in Fu Tune's music.

He didn't bother to say anything more to his colleagues.

Now everyone who has ears can hear how strong Fu Tune's level and strength are.

This is Chopin's first piano ballade, and it's just the beginning.

It is followed by a second, third, and fourth piano ballade.

Later, they knew what Fu Diao's full strength was.

It's definitely not that I was weak back then, I was also very strong back then, it's just that Fu Tiao is a little inappropriate, that's all.

Zhao Chengzhen persuaded himself in his heart, and looked at the teacher who was sitting in the middle, he actually wanted to know what kind of evaluation his teacher had of Fu Diao.

Especially after analyzing the performance content of Fu Tune with him before, what did he think about hearing the scene of Fu Tune for the first time this time.

Do you think Fu Tiao's growth is a matter of course? Still think...... Shock?

Or is it ...... Dismissive?

Zhao Chengzhen couldn't figure out what his teacher thought, so he could only withdraw his attention, put his attention back on Fu Tune's body, and listened carefully to Fu Tune's music.

After all, there are not many opportunities to listen to music seriously like this now, and you don't have to think about anything.

It's just that he didn't notice that his teacher's hand under his sleeve was shaking constantly, and he kept clenching his fists, relaxing, clenching his fists, relaxing.

Try to restrain your inner emotions.

……

Fu Tiao, he didn't know that Zhao Chengzhen and others were already sitting in the audience and watching his performance.

He only knew that his teacher He Shen and his object Zhao Zitong would come today.

As for the rest...... He didn't know much about it, and he didn't bother to care about these things.

Therefore, when playing Chopin, in addition to what he wants to play, Fu Tiao's mind has more of an idea of showing his own things to his teacher.

After all, wealth does not return to the hometown, just like brocade clothes at night.

Even if Fu Diao doesn't pay much attention to fame and fortune, he still cares a little about the people he values to appreciate him.

After dropping the last note on the piano, he raised his hand with great grace, bowed slightly to the audience, and pointed to his throat.

There was a burst of laughter from the audience, and the sound of coughing and phlegm clearing also sounded at this time.

There was also the sound of chairs moving and the sound of paper being pulled out of a bag.

This is a very short intermission for everyone to adjust their condition, and there will be such a break between each concert piece.

It's just that this time, Fu Tune's rest sound seems to be slightly louder than the other concerts.

A lot of people didn't come out of the shock just now.

It's just Chopin's first piano ballade, and everyone doesn't know how many times I've heard it, and even the recordings of those great gods have been heard I don't know how many times.

But those recordings are not as good as the live performances, and even if the live performances of the masters may not be as good as those recordings, the feeling is completely different.

That's how Fu Tiao's feeling is for them, a unique and peculiar feeling.

Rarely do they hear this feeling in Chopin's first piano ballade.

So next, Chopin's Second Piano Ballade, what kind of changes will Fu Tune make?

Everyone quickly put away their voices and sat quietly in their seats, staring at Fu Tune in front of them, waiting for him to play.

And Fu Tiao didn't let everyone wait for a long time, and after everyone was quiet, he raised his hand, looked at the piano in front of him and slowly paused, adjusting his emotions.

Chopin Ballade No.2 in F major, op. 38!

6/8 beats, Adantino small line board, sotto voce, try to keep the sound as low as possible.

Sweet and quiet.

Fu Tune's hand slowly pushed on the piano, the force was not great, it was very gentle.

It's like the sea on a sunny day, and you don't even feel the waves when you sit on the boat.

All you can feel is the peace and quiet, as if the ship has been completely stationary, frozen with the sea.

This ethereal spirit gradually calmed everyone's originally slightly hot hearts.

Although there were still a few signs of goosebumps, their hearts were indeed much calmer.

This serenity made the corners of everyone's mouths can't help but rise.

Yes, this is Chopin's Ballade for Piano No. 2, exactly as they thought.

It's just that this piece has more of a sea feel than other people's versions, rather than a small lake.

Obviously, the performance is very delicate, but inexplicably, you can always feel a trace of roughness and power in it.

Listening to Fu's performance, the corners of many people's mouths couldn't help but rise, and their bodies even had a slight weakness, and they wanted to lie on the chair and fall asleep.

The feeling of Fu tune music is really too comfortable, so perfect.

I was just listening to the music, but I felt like I was doing a Thai massage.

From the bottom of your feet to your head, it's like an electric current traveling.

They had no idea why someone could play a soft and beautiful adagio.

As in Chopin's paintings.

The moonlight shines calmly on the water, and everything is so quiet and peaceful, without any disputes, like a fairyland on earth.

Secluded, idyllic, simple and innocent.

Everything depicted in the music is so beautiful, and everyone is living and working in peace and contentment, growing and reproducing comfortably in their own land.

This softness has slackened almost everyone's will, and almost everyone has forgotten the development that follows.

They just want to listen to the Fu tune, so they listen to the Fu tune and fall asleep.

In Fu's depictions, those who grew up on this land or on the ship have incomparable romantic longing and anticipation for the future.

This desire and expectation are perfectly reflected in the hearts of everyone under the stage, so that they are also looking forward to the future development.

What kind of future will the people who grow up in this land have?

After all, everything is so good.

It's just that they have completely forgotten everything this piece represents.

This is not a hymn.

This is an epic poem from ancient Lithuania.

When everyone's spirits were almost completely relaxed, Fu Tiao couldn't help but smile slightly, his fingers moved slightly, and after lifting up for half a minute, he smashed down.

Rumble!
