Op25-9, Butterfly.

This piece is not very long, normally it takes only about 1 minute to perform, which is one of the very rare short works of Chopin's etudes.

It's just that this work, although it seems to be relatively short and a little simple, is actually not, and this work is considered to be one of the more difficult and powerful works of all Chopin's works.

Under the eyes of everyone, Fu Tiao did not stay on Chopin OP25-8 for a long time, and went directly from 25-8 to 25-9.

His fingers swept slightly over the piano, and a very relaxed and joyful piano sound flowed from his hand.

If there is a camera that captures the hand he is playing right now, you can see that Fu Tune's hand is almost completely attached to the keys, and the strength of the arm is completely relaxed, allowing the fingers to move forward with the arm.

And the longitudinal force of his fingers on the keys is not obvious, just a slight hook with his fingertips, and the sound jumps directly out of his hand.

All this makes this piece like a toy, and you even feel that Fu Tiao's hand is completely motionless, and the music can flow out of his hand.

There is no obstacle at all.

Listening to all this, it even makes people feel that this piece is very simple, and anyone can play it.

But......

If you've ever tried this piece yourself, you'll be able to feel a completely different point.

That is, this piece is definitely not as relaxed as Fu Tune is playing now.

This kind of relaxed feeling is not something that can be done if you want to do it, but you really need to be able to control the piece perfectly in order to be able to show the ease of playing.

It's not easy to master this piece, it's much more difficult than if you practice it normally and completely, and then be able to perform it on stage.

Everyone under the stage watched Fu tune's performance, and they didn't know what they should be thinking about now, so they just watched in a daze.

Chopin's etudes are a touchstone for Chopin's virtuoso.

Only those who can really master Chopin's etudes can be regarded as a top Chopin player.

It's just that fortunately, the time of this piece is not long, just a short minute.

This minute shocked everyone far more than all the previous works, but it has not yet reached its climax.

When Fu Tune fell on the last note of Chopin's Etude Op25-9 and began to play Chopin Op25-10, Chopin's Octave Etude, everyone's minds were completely confused.

"Huh? This speed? ”

"Wait, this sense of control?"

"I don't understand, wait a minute, he's not tired at all?"

"This arm of his?"

“……”

Although no one dared to say anything at this time, they felt stupid now when they saw that Fu Tune ended with Chopin's butterfly and still entered Chopin's octave etude without any pause.

Chopin's Octave Etude is not particularly difficult in terms of difficulty, but the problem is that this piece is an Octave Etude.

The Octave Etude, as the name suggests, is all octave compositions.

And what kind of problem does the Octave Etude have?

That's ......

Sour.

The most common problem caused by the octave etude is the soreness and pain of the player's arm.

Your fingers are open and tense, not as much about the music as in the previous works, so your arms need to be fully tense.

Only then will you be able to give your music texture and power.

The arm tensed and pressed the keyboard under his hand at an extremely fast speed, up and down dozens of times a second, so that all the viewers on Fu Tuo's side looked at Fu Tuo's arm, and they even saw the afterimage.

When Fu Tuo's arm is forced up and down, the afterimage is caused.

You can't see exactly how he pressed the octave in his hand, you just feel that the world in front of you is even a little blurry, and Fu Tune is like a typewriter clanging to bombard the piano in his hand.

More than 20 minutes have passed since the first work to the current octave etude.

Whether you're an ordinary person or a top-notch pianist, you're normally tired when you're in this place, especially when you're playing a butterfly song in the past, and your arm itself is already a little sore.

At this time, the best way for you to raise your hand on the piano is to calm your emotions a bit, and then after thinking about it, you can re-play the piece in your hand.

This will not only allow the arms to get some rest, but also allow the audience's emotions to be somewhat calm.

It's just that everyone didn't expect that Fu Diao didn't have any rest at all.

Like a beast that didn't know how tired it was, it smashed the sound of Chopin's Octave Etude out directly.

The octave is incomparably clear, and the image of the musical interpretation is completely in line with everyone's idea of the octave etude, and the whole piano roars painfully under Fu Tune's hands.

Listening to all this, the crowd had no idea what they should say now.

I don't know whether to say that Fu Diao is young, or whether to say that Fu Diao's strength is strong.

Especially the older people, the older ones.

They even had a hint of envy when they watched Fu tune play.

This is the vitality of young people, such a vigorous vitality, it is simply desirable.

At this time, many people are too lazy to think about what Fu tune's music is, and Fu tune is already in the octave, with enough strength and vitality to directly blast their defenses, so that they just want to spread out in their seats and listen to Fu tune playing.

Musicality, perfect expression.

Tricks, no mistakes.

Strength and energy are full of the vigor of the youth.

Isn't this a hexagonal warrior? Is there anything else to compete with Fu Tune?

Even the strongest people, like Zimmerman and Argerich.

If they were to play those first half of the Ballade or something like that, they might still have a little bit of energy to play.

But if you say, let them play Fu tunes in the second half of such an etude marathon.

They may have a more intense feel than the Chopin played in Fu tunes, and may even play a god-level live.

But it is absolutely impossible for them to have the mental strength of Fu Tune, and they don't have any rest at all, and they play directly from the beginning to this side.

They must have been nominally trying to brew their emotions in the middle, but in fact to rest their fingers.

When they think of this, many people can't help but smile at each other.

This power still has strength, isn't it a bit of a foul?

Zhao Chengzhen's face couldn't help but become dark.

He thought for a moment about his own strength.

If he is allowed to play Chopin's etudes, he has no problem, after all, as a winner of the Chopin International Piano Competition, his playing ability is not bad, and he can even be regarded as the second place among young people playing Chopin.

However, if it is said that he and Fu Tiao are now interpreted like this.

He thought for a moment......

He couldn't.

It's not just that he doesn't have enough strength in interpretation, even if he works hard and can reach the strength of Chopin's etudes, but he can't play it as easily as Fu.

It's a light-hearted gesture that can only be seen at a concert, and you can't hear it from the recordings at all.

This also makes the performance of Fu tune even more precious.

"Fu's strength ......"

The people from the Conservatoire Supérieure de Paris glanced at Zhao Chengzhen and hesitated for a moment before he spoke: "The strength is really very good, there are probably not many opponents among the young people, right?" ”

"Well, there is no opponent around 30 years old, and Lang Liangyue is okay around 40 years old, but Lang Liangyue's Chopin performance is really indescribable, so if you simply discuss Chopin, Fu's strength, there should be no one to stop under the age of fifty."

"Further up are some old people, although their strength in Chopin may be stronger than Fu Tune, but their physical strength can no longer keep up with their performance, it's a pity......"

A person on the side whispered, looking at Fu Diao a little unwilling, racking his brains to think about who else could defeat Fu Diao.

It's just that the more he thinks about it, the more he feels that Fu Tiao is now powerful.

He really couldn't think of anyone else who could beat the current Fu tune at about the same age.

Even if you add it to the next 20 years, there are very few such talents.

The other person looked at Fu Tuo and couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

"In other words, in June and July next year, when the All-European Conservatory Exchange Competition, if the German-Austrian school is completely shameless to let Fu tune, what will we do with the French music school? Can only be sent to death? ”

"How is that possible?"

Someone sneered and interrupted him.

"If I am not mistaken, in June next year, Fu should focus on the performance of the music festival, and he will not have time to pay attention to the All-European Conservatory Exchange Competition, which is too cheap."

"Yes, it would be nice if Fu Tiao really wouldn't participate......"

Everyone looked at Fu Diao and didn't know what they should say, so they could only discuss it in a whisper before closing their mouths.

The European Conservatory Exchange Competition is an exchange within the European Conservatory, and it is also a competition for the three schools of music, the German-Austrian school, the French school, and the Russian school, to see who has the strongest students.

Of course, some people from the beautiful country came to participate, but they didn't pay attention to it, and basically they came to send it, so this can be regarded as an exchange between the three major music schools.

Some people are entangled over there whether Fu Diao will choose to use the identity of a famous pianist to beat that group of ordinary children, let them see the sinister nature of society, and at the same time show off the strong strength of the Deao Le School.

However, some people think that Fu Tiao will not go, after all, from June to September every year, this time is the time when summer festivals are held in various parts of Europe, and it is also the most lively time in the whole of Europe.

There are top-notch music festivals waiting to be attended by the big guys everywhere.

For example, the musicians of the German Ruhr region, the contestants who can participate in this festival are basically the best people in the world.

For example, Barenboim, Pollini, Zimmerman, Argerich, Hamelin, Kissin......

Those who are known all over the world gather in the Ruhr area for the Ruhr Piano Festival.

At the same time, the Ruhr Piano Festival is not just one festival, but many others.

For example, the Berlin Forest Music Festival, a top music festival with the Berliner Philharmoniker.

There is also the Barcelona Music Festival in Spain.

From June to September every year, musicians are also the most active period, unlike the current winter, the most active musicians are people like Fu Diao.

Some people may wonder why Lang Liangyue is not invited to participate in these music festivals? Isn't he the best pianist in the world?

In fact, the reason is very simple......

Please.

Come on, these festivals also have their own budgets, okay? They don't have unlimited access to the world's top pianists, especially these famous pianists, who cost money.

Previously, there was a Vienna Musikverein centennial music festival in Vienna to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the establishment of the Musikverein, and almost all musicians were invited to participate, and the only one who was not invited was Lang Liangyue.

Because it's so expensive! The price of inviting Lang Liangyue alone is enough to invite two or three orchestras.

That is, the Munich Radio Orchestra, which has deep pockets, has money and can spend money on Lang Liangyue, which made Lang Liangyue agree to come to the Vienna Musikverein to celebrate his centennial birthday.

The world can achieve a level of ...... like Lang Liangyue

Not one.

If you talk about the commercial value of a musician, he is the number one in the world.

And Fu Tiao now also shows the possibility of such commercial value.

All the tickets were sold out at the beginning, and this strength is really terrifying.

The group of people from the French music school now looked at Fu Tune and hoped for a little.

That is, Fu Tiao felt that his strength was different from that of ordinary music students, and that his relationship with the German-Austrian school was not very good, and he did not want to contribute to the German-Austrian school, and......

Fu Tune may be invited by the festival to represent a certain city at the festival.

In this way, Fu Tiao will not compete with them for a useless, ordinary competition championship.

After all, they have a leader on their side this year, Zhao Chengzhen, and it is very likely to win the championship.

However, everything they were thinking, Fu Diao did not have a specific concept at all.

He didn't know anything about the European Academy of Music Exchange Competition, nor did he know any festival invitations.

Now he just wants to interpret the work in his hands.

After Chopin's Octave Etudes, Chopin's winter wind came to pass.

Fu Tune's winter wind really has nothing to say, it's just that the moment the simplest notes at the beginning fell, everyone's goosebumps rose.

His control over music can be regarded as super-god, incomparably terrifying, shocking horror.

It's the same even if it's a single tone.

There is a saying that the smaller the place, the more you can see the gap between each other.

For example, Chopin's Winter Wind, a dozen people play the same beginning, and there are only a few notes, even if you are a beginner, you can also have a few notes.

But the feeling of being played by a great person is completely different from the feeling of being played by ordinary people.

It's not because of the piano, it's just because the level of technique is not up to standard.

Some people play the winter wind, which sounds shriveled and withered, and has no vitality.

It may be right in one way, but it always feels like something is missing.

And the winter wind played by some people is arrogant, full of strength, and has the unyielding ability to fight against all living things.

It may be true, but it's also strange.

Everyone's understanding of the winter breeze is different, and the feeling expressed on this simplest note is completely different.

And Fu tune is the winter wind on the sea.

The wind swept the waves, the winter wind that almost overturned the ship.

The power roared in everyone's ears, and even though everyone was sitting on the chairs in the concert hall, there was no sea around the concert hall, but they just felt a shaking and fear for some reason.

It's as if the concert hall is going to break down at any moment, and they're going to fall into the sea with it.

I couldn't help but feel a trace of fear in my heart.

And all this is just a simple beginning, as if the front and back are completely connected, after the end of the winter wind of Fu tune, the Op 25-12, that is, the last piece of Chopin's Etude No. 25, the sea completely overturned everyone's imagination of the sea.

The power of the winter wind has not yet passed, and there are still people immersed in the winter wind and unable to extricate themselves, the sea appears in front of everyone like a miracle, completely tearing apart the sense of security that everyone relied on, and throwing them into the sea.

Fu Tuo's power is constantly surging towards his hands, pushing the power of this sea forward without stopping.

Everyone is listening to Fu Tune's music now, and they can't help but feel a wave of confusion and fear in their hearts.

They didn't know what they were supposed to do now, they felt like sailors abandoned into the sea, and even if they wanted to struggle in the sea, they couldn't resist the power of the sea.

The power of the music and the power of the sea made them feel like they couldn't breathe.

But the beauty behind this power makes them want to stop it.

This is the charm of Fu Tune, and this is the Chopin music that is unique to Fu Tune.

The room was extremely quiet, except for the sound of Fu tunes.

Underneath the sound of the performance, it was the effort of the crowd to hold their breath and not let the rushing musical beauty drown their nostrils.

It's really strong, so powerful that it's hard to breathe.

They didn't even know how to describe the performance of Fu Tune, so they could only sit there silently and listen to Fu Tune playing.

Wave after wave rushed towards everyone, and on the verge of almost suffocating everyone, Fu Tiao, with a feeling, sent them to the seashore.

As if the waves were licking their hearts, after giving the last layer of waves, they slowly left.

At this point, the second half of Fu's concert, Chopin's etudes.

Completely over.
