Chapter 58
It is not uncommon for contestants to wear masks on stage. In previous piano competitions, there were many such people. Most of them were unwilling to reveal their identities, but wanted to prove their strength through this kind of competition.

Among them are real famous people, and there are also newcomers who pretend to be mysterious, and Ji Ligulu officials have not banned this.

In the first One Emperor and Four Emperors Piano Competition, a world-class pianist in the North American division joined the competition wearing a clown mask.

From the beginning of the audition, he passed all the way and became the biggest dark horse of the year. Unfortunately, he stopped in the top three in the competition area.

After leaving the stage, the contestant's information was quickly leaked. Although it caused some troubles to life, but in the concert tour held by him, the venues were full, and he became the most popular and most expensive singer at that time. one of the great pianists.

But this kind of trick is indeed very new to the audience at the beginning, and it will even attract a lot of attention, but with the success of the first and second One Emperor Four Emperors Competition, people are more and more interested Players with many fake faces have lost the patience to pay attention, and the requirements for the skills of this type of players are naturally infinitely high.

Pretentiousness requires strength. If there is no strong strength, wearing a mask will only make people cast more harsh eyes. Once the psychological expectations of the audience are not met, elimination is a certainty. There is even a certain chance of being booed or attacked by a mineral water bottle.

There are precedents for this.

In addition, although wearing a mask on stage increases the sense of mystery, but in terms of emotional contagion, it is slightly discounted.

Just like singers and dancers, while expressing professional ability, the devotion of expression and the expansion of body size will give the audience a certain degree of shock.

It is worth mentioning that when playing music, you must put your true feelings into it, and your expression and demeanor should be comfortable and not too artificial.

If it is only performed for the sake of interpretation, it will not be an anti-dog, and it will have the opposite effect.

In this regard, among Liao Yuan's friends in the industry in his previous life, there was a veritable emoticon emperor and a famous world-class pianist, Lang Lang.

In his early playing career, Lang Lang often lost his emotions when playing the piano, making various exaggerated expressions, and because of this, he often appeared on the cover reports of music editions in various countries around the world.

Liao Yuan knew that it was a manifestation of true devotion to the true feelings.

People really like playing the piano. If they don't touch the piano for a day, they will feel hot and uncomfortable. They regard the piano as their life.

This kind of playing style, which looks like madness and mental retardation, was also unique at the time and was not understood by many people.

But no matter how others slander him, Lang Lang's piano playing skills are still recognized as a super-class master in the world.

He uttered his voice to the world through a piano, left his footprints everywhere on the stage of the Olympic Games, Grammy, World Cup, Spring Festival Gala, etc., and let the world witness countless classic moments.

But the release of emotions does not mean that it must be shown on the face.

The interpretation of the fingertips can also shock people.

Even the later Lang Lang, after his playing style became more proficient, the style of unrestrained playing like in the early days gradually disappeared, just like returning to the basics, and later completely conquered the world with only his hands. In the mouths of many international piano masters, Lang Lang is also known as one of the top three pianists in the world.

Another example is Horowitz.

When he plays the piano, he always has a poker face, and there are no redundant body movements, but his playing style is indeed very contagious, and he is known as one of the greatest pianists of the [-]th century.

In fact, except for a few "expressionists", most world-class pianists also put their emotions in their hands.

Therefore, Fu Xiaoci's proposal is completely feasible.

Wearing a mask to play the piano will not affect Liao Yuan's performance too much.

"Let me think about it."

After hanging up the phone, Liao Yuan searched for the competition rules of One Emperor and Four Emperors on the computer. After reading it, he fell into thinking.

Musicians also need empathy.

Liao Yuan does not want to be a lonely performer in his heart, dancing alone in a dark world, no one appreciates, no flowers, applause, praise, no matter how great the enthusiasm is, it will be burnt in loneliness.

He longed to be on stage.

But at the same time that this idea was born, Liao Yuan still had a huge fear hidden in his heart.

In his previous life, he swaggered through the market, and classic works bloomed all over the world through his writing, and then became coveted.

In the last few days of his life, he was kidnapped and taken to an abandoned factory, and there was darkness before his eyes for dozens of hours.

The only thing that can be smelled around is the smelly garbage pile, and all that can be heard in the ear, except for the sound of the wind, is only the sound of mice gnawing on food...

Fear, beyond words.

In his new life, he already had the idea of ​​keeping a low profile.

But the temptation of fame and fortune seems to be constantly driving him to the abyss of destruction.

In particular, his predecessor's persistence and love for music planted an irresistible temptation deep in his soul.

Whenever he touches a musical instrument, the hairs all over his body will relax rapidly.

The pleasure from the soul made him addicted like opium.

Liao Yuan turned off the computer, came to the living room, turned on the camera mode on the camera, lifted the tablecloth, opened the S-277 piano board, and sat down gently.

When the first piano sounds...

It seems that someone is walking in the depths of the soul, picking up flowers and laughing.

Some people sat cross-legged on the ground, pointing at the chessboard and applauding loudly.

There were also people flying under the spotlight, facing the shouts and screams of the [-] audience, weeping and waving vigorously.

But more people walk alone in the dark, like lonely passers-by.

However, when they looked up, Liao Yuan could see that they looked exactly like him...

Liao Yuan's hands playing the piano were wrapped around Xu Mi's holy light again.

In the whole room, there is desolation, hope, disillusionment, sadness, blood, war, homeland, partners, death, blade, dancing together, and growth.

But I am no longer me.

I am the prelude to the dawn, the splendor of the sky, the eternal darkness and darkness!
This song is called "last-reunion", when it sounded, in front of Liao Yuan, there was a broad avenue, shining brightly and dazzingly.

Liao Yuan strode forward.

Suddenly, he turned around, stretched out his hand to the child who was sitting in the corner playing the piano silently, and said with a smile:

"Brother, the road ahead is clear, you and I will go forward together, okay?"
