Chapter 291: Superstar
In the early morning of the third day after the Fu tune performance, to be precise, it should be around 6 o'clock in the morning Berlin time, that is, around 12 o'clock in the afternoon of Chinese time, and the musician magazine was already completely covered in Europe.
Although it is said that the German side sells newspapers and periodicals more in ordinary supermarkets and convenience stores.
But you just have to go and walk around and you'll find an interesting cover.
The front page headline of the Musician's Magazine.
How an Artist Is Made
This is a very prominent location.
Camilo, Mira, and Taha sat there with their respective pianos in their hands, smiling at the camera.
And behind the three of them, Fu Tiao was like a protective umbrella, reaching out to wrap his arms around the shoulders of the three of them, completely enveloping them.
It's exactly the same as how he behaves in music.
Klaus yawned at this moment, went to the bakery in front of the supermarket, bought a croissant and a cup of black coffee, and was about to leave and sleep in his piano room for a while.
But before he left the bakery, he had already noticed the photo of Fu Tuo hanging on the kiosk stand in front of the supermarket.
He couldn't help but pause when he was about to leave, looked at Fu Diao in front of him who was smiling at him, couldn't help but hesitate a little, walked to the commissary, pointed to the magazine to the boss and asked.
"Hello, I would like to ask...... Did this magazine just arrive? ”
"Huh? Professor Klaus? The owner of the commissary seemed to be very familiar with Professor Klaus, and when he saw Professor Klaus coming, his eyes lit up, and he reached out to pick up the magazine and handed it to Klaus, and said with a happy smile.
"I'm sorry, Professor Klaus, I don't know much about these things, if you're interested, you can flip through them yourself, as long as you don't spill your coffee on the magazine, after all...... You know. ”
"Ah, thank you."
Professor Klaus was stunned, hesitated to take the magazine handed over by the man, put it on the table, his fingers hovered in the air and trembled a few times, then put down the coffee in his other hand, and after rubbing his hands on his body three or four times in a row, he cautiously reached out and opened the magazine, and after flipping through the relevant catalogs according to the previous catalog, he asked the stall owner of the commissary who was bored watching TV next to him.
"Anyway...... How did you meet me? I'm sorry, but I don't seem to have a trace of you......"
"Ha, it's normal not to have it, I know you from my daughter's story."
"Uh...... Sorry, daughter? I don't understand. ”
Klaus took out reading glasses from his breast pocket and hung them on the bridge of his nose, looked up slightly at the store manager in front of him, and continued to look for a report on Fu Tune.
"Your daughter...... Also from our school? ”
"Yes, didn't my daughter tell Professor Klaus about me? That's a bit of a pity. ”
The manager leaned against the edge of the counter and shrugged his shoulders at Klaus.
"After all, I am Portuguese, and my daughter came to study piano at the Berlin University of the Arts in Germany, which is a very proud thing, in order to allow her to study here, so I took her here, rented a house nearby, and then opened a small shop by myself in order to make a living."
With that, he snapped his fingers lightly, looked around with satisfaction, and said with a smile.
"Although she can't make a lot of money, it's enough for a normal life or something, after all, the most important thing is for her to study hard here."
"There are very few parents like you...... I've only seen some of my Asian students' parents, and it's very rare for European parents to quit their jobs and come to Berlin to study with their children. ”
"Hahaha, there are some, it seems that she didn't tell the teacher about you."
"Hmmm......"
Klaus found the content about Fu Tune, his eyes immediately lit up, and he gestured to the store manager who was still talking over there.
"Sorry, can you stop for a moment? I want to finish reading this report. ”
"Of course, of course, there are no problems!"
The shopkeeper immediately shut his mouth, and Klaus hung his eyes on the column on Fu Tune.
How an Artist Is Made
This is the big headline.
The subheadings placed below are......
"Interview with Fu Diao and his friends chamber orchestra."
Interviews?
Klaus thought for a moment and continued to look down, only to find that it was only a few minutes before his full attention was drawn to this interview.
"I've been thinking about how an artist is made for a long, long time, because I also dreamed that I could be an artist and play my own music for everyone on the world stage.
But unfortunately, I can't become an artist, because my strength is too weak, and I can only become an ordinary journalist, a columnist, and it is really too whimsical to want to become an artist......
I used to think that the gap between me and the top artists was just a matter of talent, and if I could have the same talent as them, then I would be able to play at a better level than them!
I used to think this way before I met Fu Tiao, so even though I interviewed a lot of artists, I always had a sense of integrity in my heart that they were only able to succeed because they were talented enough.
But after meeting Fu Tune, I completely changed my mind, because compared to those traditional artists, Fu Tune them work hard enough! Good enough! Enough to be shocking......"
Fu tune? Step up your game?
Klaus looked up and thought about it, feeling a little weird.
Fu Tiao wasn't the hardest working of all his students, probably practicing for about eight hours a day, right? And so long.
When it comes to hard work, those South Korean students are honestly the hardest working among all his students.
It's just a pity that I don't know if it's because the talent of South Korean students is too low, and these South Korean students have relatively average grades......
According to friends at their own school, the South Korean students arrive at the school gate around 6 a.m. every morning to practice.
This effort continued until about ten o'clock in the evening, when the piano room closed.
Some people will even stay up all day and sleep directly in the piano room, as well as in the corners of some stairs.
In terms of hard work, this group of people should be the hardest working group.
It's just a pity......
Klaus shook his head and didn't think any further.
Because he found that he was thinking wrong.
Fu Tiao is just not the hardest working group among his students.
But Fu is not just a student, right?
So...... If Fu Tiao's efforts are true?
Klaus threw the train aside and continued to read the man's description.
"I came to Salzburg not long after the Salzburg Festival started, and there weren't really many people here at first, but the main artists I met here were the quartet of Fu Tune, Mila, Taha, Camilo and a few other music groups.
Because Fu Diao's name is very loud, I used to want to talk directly to Fu Tiao about the report in the room and have a brief chat, but unfortunately, from the first day I arrived in Salzburg until I finished writing this manuscript, I only met Fu Tiao many times a few times...... Twice!
The first time, when Fu Tiao checked in, I met him.
The second time, this time he and his orchestra members were in concert, I enjoyed his music, and then I stood in front of him again and asked him some questions.
Other than that, I didn't see a single Fu tune.
Is it because I haven't been able to find Fu Tune?
No, it's not, seriously, I've always known where Fu Tune is, and even everyone in Salzburg knows where Fu Tune is.
He was in the piano room of Mozart University, in a relatively large piano room.
He just sat there, with his orchestra members, and practiced over and over again.
He is looking for the most appropriate way to interpret the work in his hands, and he is constantly striving for perfection in interpreting everything.
Did he not practice in the first place?
No, obviously not.
I think anyone who has heard them play at the beginning should know one thing, that Fu Tune has prepared the work for a long time, and they have already been confident.
But why are they still practicing?
I think there is only one answer, and that is...... Perfect!
Perfection is the only thing I think about his work, and only he can use this practice to sculpt his music.
I was honored to hear Mozart's Piano Quartet K478 and Beethoven's Piano Quartet WoO36 with Fu Tune and his friends.
Today, I completely understand what it means to play perfectly, and I also know one thing thoroughly, that is, why Fu Tune can play such a work, while many others can't play it.
Is it because such a work is difficult?
I don't think so, because such works may have been more difficult at the time, but now, no matter for any pianist who has become famous, it is not a particularly difficult work.
So what is the reason why this K478 of Mozart has not been the most authoritative interpretation?
I didn't know it at first, but now that I've heard Fu Tune playing, I feel like I've found the answer.
Perhaps, they did not have the same spirit of study as Fu Tune, and their ideas about music were too shallow, which led to the fact that for so long, there has not been an authoritative piano chamber orchestra to play the most suitable Mozart K478.
It was not until today that Fu Tiao brought his friends to interpret it together, so that the best interpretation of this piece fell into his hands. ”
Meaty, really meaty.
Seeing this reporter's description, even Klaus felt a tingle.
For the first time, he felt that people could boast like this?
Are you sure this is a compliment, not a handful?
Although there are not many Mozart K478 that you play with particularly good results, there are many good ones, right?
He didn't know what to say, but he felt goosebumps rising.
Klaus swallowed and continued to look down, watching the reporter praise Fu Tune.
"Before I introduce Fu Tune, I would like to introduce you to the members of Fu Tune's chamber orchestra, which is not an ordinary chamber orchestra, unlike the random chamber orchestra that everyone thinks.
Of course, this is not a particularly famous chamber orchestra.
The chamber orchestra is composed of Taha, winner of the International Piano Competition for Violin, Mira for the International Piano Competition for Cello, and Camilo, a core member of the Berliner Philharmoniker.
I don't want to tell you how awesome and amazing Fu's orchestra really is.
I just want to tell you that it's not just him, it's all his orchestra members, these top soloists at the world championship level, who are driving the practice.
And Dior, who leads these soloists, is also a world champion, but one difference from others is that Fu Tuan has one more honor, that is, the best newcomer at the Ruhr Piano Festival.
He used his supreme personal charm, full of spirituality and unpredictable timbre to drive the whole music, so that everyone was completely immersed in his music and could not extricate themselves.
When listening to Fu Tune's performance, you will even have a trace of self-doubt, that is, why Fu Tune can play such a strong work?
Even if you use the most authoritative details to understand the performance of Fu Tune, every detail is deducted to the extreme, leaving no gaps, and you will not find any flaws.
This perfection is not only found in the playing of Fu tunes, but also in his companions.
Can such playing ability be directly erased just by using their high talent?
I think......
No one can say such a thing.
Because this is not a problem that can be ignored directly if you are highly gifted and talented.
This is as long as you have listened to Fu Tiao's efforts, you will be able to know that this is an inevitable result.
From the first day they came to Salzburg, they didn't let up, they kept practicing, practicing, looking for problems, solving problems, and only making music better.
With such a level of dedication, how many other pianists can still practice like this?
I think it's very small.
When I wander the streets of Salzburg, I find lots and lots of artists, walking down the streets, listening to this year's festival, watching the street performers applaud from time to time, and even people come up to perform.
While they were hanging out, Fu Tune and his team were practicing.
While they were playing, Fu Tune and his team were practicing.
While they were enjoying the food, Fu Diao and his team were still practicing.
This kind of practice has long been more than just a matter of completing tasks, as other artists do.
This is to be able to enjoy a more perfect performance for all audiences.
This is for the sake of their own peace of mind.
During his time in Salzburg, Fu Tiao was a pure man, a noble man, a man who had escaped from low tastes!
Only such a person can bring such a beautiful performance to everyone, and can make the audience who heard him play tonight linger.
If I didn't think it might be too arrogant to talk like this, I would even be willing to call Fu Tiao the strongest this year!
His performance is not only perfect, he has become the strongest performance under the god-level scene!
If I could, I really wished I could live on this day forever, because only then would I be able to appreciate Fu Tune and his companions the purest musical beauty they had brought to us an infinite number of times.
It was also in his performance that I understood one thing thoroughly.
That's what separates me from these top artists, and it's not just about talent.
The gap between me and these artists, in addition to their talent, is also their attitude towards art, they really face music with their attitude towards art, and they even continue to study in order to interpret the most perfect music, just for the slightest improvement.
Practice, practice, more practice.
Far beyond the average person's practice.
How many top pianists don't practice piano after becoming famous, they spend all their time playing, driving cars, doing variety shows, and participating in chat interviews.
You can see him everywhere, but you just can't see him on music.
They keep saying how loyal they are to their music and persuade their fans to go to their concerts, but what exactly do they bring to the fans?
Is there only one rollover after another?
Listening to Fu Tune's excellent music, and listening to someone else's performance that night, I deeply understood something.
That's ......
There is also a difference between musicians, and not everyone can be an artist.
But!
No matter how the standards of this artist are changed, I think Fu Tiao can definitely rely on his passion for art to become an artist in everyone's hearts.
No, it's not just Fu Diao, but also his team members, this group of lads are very good, and their future is bright.
Seeing them, I saw the future of classical music orchestras.
They are the only ones who can represent the future direction of classical orchestras.
They are the beacons of classical music, superstars.
And not those old people who are in high positions and can't play. ”
