Adaptation or non-adaptation does not change a fact.

The little boy has grown up.

A sigh in the empty lounge.

The woman in the mirror wears lilac eyeshadow.

It's really good-looking.

...

...

As the applause fell from the stage, the last track of the first day of the concert was ushered in.

Paganini Rhapsody on a Theme.

After most of the concert, the Eastman School of Music showed a deep foundation that everyone in the audience looked forward to their repertoire.

Offstage.

"Sister He Jing is going to appear!" Xia Shu was still holding a bouquet of flowers in his hand.

"yes. Qin Jian on the side echoed and cast his gaze to the entrance of the backstage, "Natsuki." ”

"Huh?"

"Am I paralyzed when I play the piano?"

...

Moment.

The middle-aged conductor took the lead on the stage, He Jing followed behind him, and the two walked on the stage together.

Under the bright table lamp, He Jing's silver dress was shining with a little bit of light, which was a little eye-catching.

She walked to the center of the stage to pick up the microphone, bowed lightly to the audience, and began to speak before the performance.

The melodious Chinese rhythmically introduced the Pa master again, and finally she paid tribute to Rahe like every performer.

The applause fell, and He Jing sat down in front of the piano.

Adjusting the work of the piano bench, she also adjusted the rhythm of her breathing at the same time.

The next second that the conductor made eye contact, the conductor raised his hand.

All the musicians on the stage made a gesture to play and waited.

Moment.

The moment the conductor waved, the string ensemble played a short and clear introduction like a gust of wind.

The next second.

"Buzzing !!"

An extremely powerful blow from the piano startled the audience.

And that's not all, as this one sound, one after another, is followed by one super-powerful performance.

A rare opening to a rhapsody on a Paganini theme.

He Jing played the same dynamics in every sustained note processing of the introductory section, without any amplitude fluctuations.

This is not a change from the norm.

There are too many versions of 'Pa Master' in history.

Most versions also choose to play these notes at the same volume in the opening introduction.

But their volume is kept to a certain intensity, so that they can still give a sense of unstable psychological emotion after the chromatic lead - so as to contain a hint of the first variation theme.

But He Jing plays with a fortisstry of almost three F's, which directly eliminates the unstable emotions that the melody of the music can bring.

In this way, a large part of the listener's attention is distracted from the music itself to the performer.

So there is the next scene - the band grandly enters the music into the first variation.

The violin plays the first variation of the theme.

...

"Why is that?"

Qin Jian drew a question mark in his heart.

First of all, he can be sure that He Jing's strength is definitely not out of control because of nervousness, because he has noticed that the timbre of the next few strong tones is processed, if he is not mistaken, He Jing should have made the sound effect by pressing down with his big arm and grabbing the button with his falling fingers.

Secondly, the overall volume of the band is also on the high side, which means that this scene was rehearsed in advance.

"Listen to it. ”

Qin Jian was not only interested in He Jing's way of playing at the moment, but he also wanted to peek into her mentor's processing logic through this.

As a lifelong artist with Steinway & Sons and a brand ambassador for the North American Pacific region, De Lange & Söhne is also famous.

...

He Jing's powerful performance has captured the attention of most people, and everyone's expectations for this performer are not high.

A song of the Yellow River at the manor reception has brought her into everyone's field of vision.

With the complete unfolding of the music, Qin Jian's expression gradually relaxed, and he was also looking forward to this performance, and wanted to see what He Jing had learned in the past half a year.

"This opening is a surprise. ”

The music continues.

He Jing in front of the piano is like a queen in silver, waving her arms, driving the band and the piano.

drives every pair of ears.

..

..

Then again, Paganini's Rhapsody on a Theme has always played a maverick role in the world of piano works.

This kind of maverick has no praise or disparagement, and is completely facilitated by the old man Rahe.

The concerto family sees it as a variation, because it has been marked by twenty-four variations since its birth.

The Variations family considers its kinship to be more of a concerto, because it is too large to be accommodated by the family, both in terms of structure, design, and tonal combinations.

Adopting the strengths of the two families, the 'Pa Master' seems to have this 'transcendental' status.

In fact, no one wants it.

But that's fine, otherwise how could there be so many versions of history.

Gradually, with the arrival of the fourth variation, Qin Jian vaguely understood He Jing's performance intention.

She did not abandon the core of the Russian school, and she showed precise control in terms of the contrast in volume and the cleanliness of the timbre.

However, she is a little different in the structure of the variations.

Her tempo did not change in the slightest when she advanced into Variation 2, she did not weaken again in Variation 2 and entered Variation 3, and when she advanced into Variation 4, her playing power increased again, and her timbre changed.

Qin Jian directly fell his gaze on the large frequency curtain after hearing the sound effect.

I saw that the ten fingers on the black and white keyboard were completely erected, and the full fingertip play enhanced the elasticity and rhythm of the music.

In the dazzling running technique of ten fingers, woodwinds and strings expand the theme just right.

This treatment is like a complete connection between the introduction and a second or third variation.

"Beautiful. ”

Qin Jian secretly praised in his heart, and Variation Five had already revealed his rough and bold expression in a new rhythm with high and low tones.

Frequent transitions between strength and weakness enhance the music's natural dynamics and tension.

It's just that the ornamentation of the sixth variation slows down the music, and in keeping with this trend, the music slows down more and more, ending with a hint of sorrow in the woodwinds at the end.

The seventh variation did not sound immediately.

The whole band also stopped.

About two seconds later.

In the backbeat of the rhythm of Qin Key's breathing, the bassoon, cello and bass lead to the apocalyptic theme and set off a solemn backdrop for the piano.

He Jing's performance state was also less intense than just now, and it quieted down.

It wasn't until the end of the seventh variation that He Jing stopped again in the surprised gaze of everyone.

One stop and another two seconds.

"She thought of the seventh variation as an intermezzo. ”

Someone in the audience said in an extremely low voice.

Qin Jian didn't hear this, but he could also hear it from the musical processing.

In this way, the introduction to the sixth variation becomes the first part. ”

He said in his heart that this was completely different from what he had designed at the time.

In the Qin Jian competition, the introduction is the first part, the variations from 1 to 8 are the second part, and the variations from 9 to 16 and 17 to 24 are the third and fourth parts, respectively.

And there are hardly any breaks in it, and it is interpreted in one go from beginning to end, exactly according to the format of the three-movement concerto.

The eighth variation rises in response.

The show continues.
