Chapter 389 Dante Sonata

As a well-known Chinese pianist in the United States, Nicole has a typical oriental face. She has rosy cheeks and a slim figure with single eyelids. There are countless suitors, especially No.3 in the Tchaikovsky Competition. Afterwards, the halo on her body became a little more, which also led to a geometric increase in her income.

The yellow-skinned girl with a simple ponytail in the past has disappeared, but now Nicole exudes a delicate atmosphere all over her body.

The simple black evening dress is very textured, the pendant around the neck is shining brightly, and the high heels set off the slender legs. At this moment, it looks like an angel who has fallen into the mortal world, and also has a back full of desire for protection.

When she was sitting in front of the piano, dancing to the melody, a piece of "Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini" by Rachmaninoff instantly lifted the atmosphere of the scene.

People's faces are full of intoxication.

"Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini" is full of Rachmaninoff's personal style, known for its brilliant technical performance and majestic emotional outburst, making it unforgettable.

"God, this sweet little melody, my heart can't stand it!"

"The world's top players are really different from the big players..."

"Fortunately, I bought a scalper ticket, otherwise I would have missed such a wonderful performance..."

"Thinking that I will be immersed in the ocean of music all day, I am really moved to tears, just like seeing someone I like, the feeling of my heart stopping beating."

"Nicole chooses this song to PK, which is the most sensible result. It is difficult for her to beat Wu Di in terms of speed, and it is a smart way to label it with emotion."

"This is the Adagio variation, such a beautiful melody, wow, it feels like dancing in the water."

"There is a feeling of climbing to the top of the peak and overlooking the vastness of the mountains, and there is also a beautiful feeling of seeing Nanshan leisurely. This wonderful note is simply wonderful!"

With the ups and downs of the music, Nicole closed her eyes and began to play silently.

This is a simple and lyrical tune. For classical musicians, such a melody is like a carol of romantic passion.

"Super-level performance!"

Wu Di looked at Nicole, feeling a little touched in his heart.

He once communicated with Nicole. At the Tchaikovsky Competition, Nicole was the only friend he talked with. Both parties were full of youthfulness and full of respect for each other.

It's just that when the winner was decided in the final competition, under Liao Yuan's guidance, Wu Di, who was slightly weaker, instantly learned by analogy and reached the so-called realm of unity of human and piano. This made Wu Di, who had no hope of winning the championship, perform well in the finals. Won the gold medal in one fell swoop.

In an instant, he changed from being unknown to being dazzling.

Since then, there has been no contact between Wu Di and Nicole.

Now, more than a year later, Nicole has become more and more charming, like a strawberry ready to be picked at any time, full of attractive fragrance.

"She's grown up."

Liao Yuan turned his head sideways, looked at Wu Di, and comforted him: "She is just like you, she is a talented player, and she can make a good kick in the face of pressure. Don't relax, and of course you don't have to waver. You should believe in yourself , as long as you keep your best form, you won't lose."

Wu Di nodded silently.

Nicole's sudden outburst also shocked other contestants, and many people couldn't help but look at Nicole with admiration.

Whether it was Nicole or Gao Feiliu, these people could not pass the first round of the media's predictions, but now, Nicole's strength exploded, making everyone unable to help but start to waver.

It is still unknown who wins the deer and who wins.

When the song was over, facing the applause of the audience, Nicole put her hands on her chest, suppressed the excitement in her heart, and bowed deeply.

Then, Wu Di came on stage.

As a player known for his terrifying hand speed, Wu Di has become a top young pianist in the world after winning the Tchaikovsky Piano Competition. The phenomenon that Li respectfully called Liao Yuan his teacher is also well known.

Foreign media have also widely reported on this. As "little Liao Yuan", Wu Di's strength is remarkable. His terrifying hand speed has brought him a large number of fans and traffic, but he has also been criticized by various experts. I think that when Wu Di is playing, he just blindly shows off his skills, and lacks the emotions that a professional pianist should have, so it is always difficult to really enter the room.

The performance in the Tchaikovsky competition was also lackluster, and only in the final finals did he have a fluke performance.

Yes, everyone believed that the reason why Wu Di won the chaiyuan championship was just a fluke.

This is a huge pressure for Wu Di.

Fortunately, he adjusted his mood very quickly. In the subsequent series of performances, he dedicated wonderful performances to fans and music fans. Coupled with occasional public welfare actions, the slander in the market gradually disappeared.

His confidence has been built and he appears to be able to play with ease.

It's just that at such a critical moment as the finals of the Elizabeth Competition, facing the powerful Nicole, the young Wu Di's mood was inevitably shaken.

"Teacher, I'm going up."

After Nicole stepped down, Wu Di immediately got up and saluted Liao Yuan, and then walked firmly to the arena step by step.

At this moment, the audience applauded gradually.

"He really regards you as a teacher from the bottom of his heart."

Lin Weiyin looked at Wu Di's back and smiled slightly: "It's so cute."

Liao Yuan raised the corner of his mouth.

As for Wu Di, Liao Yuan didn't really recognize such a master-student relationship on the surface. He just told Wu Di what he understood that night in Chai Yuan. Maybe he was kind enough to give advice, but it was far from master-student relationship. With such closeness, most of Wu Di's achievements today are due to his own hard work and talent.

At this time, Wu Di bowed to the audience, and then sat on the piano board, through the piano paint panel in front of him, he clearly saw his own eyes.

Firm and unwavering.

The audience fell silent, and the first note sounded.

"Dong dong!"

Like spring thunder exploding, strings of slow interludes of piano sounds appeared in people's ears.

People were shocked, and many people even showed surprise on their faces.

This is……

Contestant Nicole sat under the stage, looking at Wu Di with her hands on the keys, she couldn't help but tighten her skirt tightly, "Is it Liszt's Dante Sonata?"

As Liszt's very important piano sonata, "Reflections of Dante-Fantasia Sonata" occupies a pivotal position in Liszt's entire piano music creation career.

At the same time, this piece of music is also closely related to the religious literary work "Divine Comedy: Inferno" written by the medieval poet Dante.

Of all Liszt’s works, more than [-]% are iconic gimmicks, which has led many people in the industry to criticize Liszt as just the king of gimmicks, and believe that Liszt’s works are empty in content and cannot withstand scrutiny.

But this "Dante Sonata" is a rare work with both emotion and technology, and combined with the expressive force of Dante's "Divine Comedy", its ideological content is extremely rich. Therefore, once it comes out, it is also a masterpiece of Liszt The path of the pianist has laid a strong foundation.

Some people at the scene hadn't even heard the song, but judging from the expressiveness of the contestants, it was not inferior to the "Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini" played by Nicole just now. This discovery was even better emotionally. The surrounding media reporters were in a commotion, and many reporters had silently written their comments in their notebooks.

In the battle between the dragon and the tiger, who can win has become a huge suspense at this moment.
