Chapter 65 It's Him

"Revolutionary Etudes in C Minor" is a reference repertoire for many art candidates today, and it is also one of the most frequently performed repertoires in many concerts, loved by pianists all over the world.

This is a musical work with a single image, and the whole song runs through the emotions of anger, agitation and grief.

All musical images are mostly formed by the combination of the rushing sound flow of the left hand and the resolute tune of the right hand, but halfway through the melody, the sound of the piano turns sharply, and the rapid ups and downs of the accompaniment seem to be someone shouting to the world. Talk about the pain in your heart.

This piece is one of the most representative works in Chopin's personal career. It requires extremely high coordination between the left and right hands. It is difficult for ordinary tenth-level amateur players to avoid mistakes even after long-term practice.

However, Yu Chengjiao is a well-known pianist in China. He practiced "Revolutionary Etude" since he was a child. He played this piece many times in the ratings of some examinees. one.

Listening to the rhythm of this etude, Gao Feiliu excitedly waggled his fingers, his face eager to try.

Obviously, I really want to sit in front of that piano and play, to show my personal style.

But when he saw Liao Yuan who was full of admiration, he suddenly said: "Professor Yu Zhuyu is in front, the next person to be on stage must be under a lot of pressure, are you afraid?"

"It doesn't matter whether you are afraid or not."

Liao Yuan smiled slightly: "However, I don't think it's shameful to lose to a professor."

Hearing this, Zhang Chao hurriedly said, "Mr. Liao, then don't go up, and wait."

Zhang Chao naturally supported Liao Yuan. He brought Liao Yuan with the intention of making Liao Yuan a hit at this exchange meeting, and "Out of the Western Regions" obviously has this potential. He didn't want Liao Yuan The flames were turned off before the distant light was revealed.

At this time, after Yu Chengjiao finished the song, he stood up, put his left hand behind his waist, swung his right hand from his left chest to the lower right, and bowed.

There was continuous applause at the scene, and people praised: "Professor Yu's mastery of this piece is becoming more and more perfect."

"Professor Yu has mastered all of Chopin's etudes superbly, and he can be regarded as the highest-level pianist in China performing Chopin's etudes."

"As expected of Lin Weiyin's teacher, this pair of teachers and students is really a typical example of being better than blue."

"Who is the next person? Ah, Xiao Fei is going up!"

"Wow, Fei Liu really has a powerful boyfriend. After Professor Yu finished his performance, he came on stage without any pressure. He is only 13 years old, right?"

"Young and ignorant? No, no, no, people should not be judged by appearances. Don't underestimate Xiao Feiliu's skills because of his age. He is also one of the few small pianos who can play Chopin's 27-hand etudes without missing a note." Home."

"Hey, why did you add the small print?"

Zhang Chao, Liao Yuan and the others didn't expect Xiao Feiliu to come on stage suddenly, and after being a little stunned, they all applauded.

Gao Feiliu stood in front of the piano, put one hand in front of the piano, bowed to everyone, and then sat up with an excited expression.

He is the kind of person who is more interested in playing when there are more people in the audience. After moving the joints of his hands a little, he pressed the first white key under everyone's gaze.

Soon, his left hand was as fast as Yu Chengjiao's, so fast that he couldn't see his fingers.

The 3rd, 4th, and 5th fingers of the right hand are also extremely flexible. When playing, from time to time, they climb mountains and mountains on the black and white keys, left, right, left, and left, and continuously play multiple broken down chords.

The sound of the piano is far and near, making people feel like they are in a dream.

"The Calm Andante and the Splendid Polonaise?"

Someone at the scene exclaimed.

People's eyes on Gao Feiliu became extremely hot, even Yu Chengjiao, who had just left his seat, turned around in surprise.

Among the crowd, pianist Meng Han listened carefully to the tune of the piece.

He looked at Gao Feiliu with a deep and far-reaching gaze, and shook his head after a while and said, "It's pretty good, but it's still a bit lacking in terms of rhythm and explosiveness."

Meng Han was very impressed with this song "Calm Andante and Brilliant Grand Polonaise". Even among all Chopin's works, this piece has absolute difficulty. What's more, this piece is still Lin Weiyin's award-winning work at the Chopin International Piano Competition.

It is not easy for people who can play this piece of music completely, and there are very few people who can achieve proficiency and perfection.

The Andante part of the prelude is quite simple, but it becomes more difficult as it goes on, making people wish they could play with eight hands. It is praised by many art candidates as one of the most perverted piano pieces in history.

Gao Feiliu's ability to play this piece without missing a note has already shown that his strength is at the top of the domestic piano industry, but it is obviously still a little immature to compete with masters from all over the world in international competitions.

But even so, Meng Han did not dare to underestimate Gao Feiliu, because even he could not express the perfect emotion of "Brilliant Polonaise", otherwise, he would have won No.1 in the Chopin Piano Competition that year. Han.

Liao Yuan was also amazed when he heard Gao Feiliu playing the piano.

The predecessor of this piece has also tried to play, and the first 5 minutes of the line version is very simple, but after that, the predecessor usually ends up playing the wrong sound in a hurry.

Therefore, Liao Yuan's impression of Gao Feiliu was much better after seeing the young Gao Feiliu can play this piece completely.

When the song ended, the audience burst into thunderous applause.

Gao Feiliu stood up as a gentleman, and then shouted: "Brother Yuan, it's your turn!"

Everyone followed Gao Feiliu's gaze and turned their heads in unison, looking for the so-called Brother Yuan.

Seeing this, Fatty Zhang immediately stepped aside and pointed at Liao Yuan with both hands: "It's him, it's him!"

Liao Yuan: "..."

Gao Feiliu said loudly again at this time: "Do you know "Exodus from the Western Regions"?"

Most of the people at the scene were bewildered, only a few people showed a dazed look, and they looked at Liao Yuan with interest.

"Yes, he is the author of "Exodus from the Western Regions". This piece has not been published yet, but I have the honor to listen to a part of it. I really like the few chord jumps in this piece. It is magnificent and majestic. Everyone is shocked by the tension! The whole work is mixed with pop and classical rhythms, and the emotions are very full! We took a lot of effort to invite Brother Yuan to the scene, everyone has a blessing today!!"

After Gao Feiliu finished speaking, he immediately applauded happily.

Xiao Feiliu obviously admires the original composer very much, and he admires Liao Yuan's ability to create such a master-level epic work as "Out of the Western Regions"!

At the critical moment, Liao Yuan was not shy either, and naturally he had to do what he promised, so amidst the warm applause of the crowd, he walked to the piano seat without haste and took his seat slowly.
