This star is wrong

Chapter 546 The violin competition begins, all the way to the finals
Since the end of the friendship between the two countries, there has been a little episode in Moscow.

Famous Russian violinist Sumarokov asked a friend if he could buy a CD of "Blessings of Love".

Sumarokov is over sixty years old and in semi-retirement.

On weekdays, I live in a house on the outskirts of Moscow, listen to music, and grow flowers and plants.

This time I was invited to participate in the friendship between the two countries and heard the violin concerto "Blessings of Love".

As a world-renowned violinist, he has never heard this concerto before. He was quite pleasantly surprised after listening to it live, so after the end, he hoped to buy a CD of "Blessings of Love".

It's just that he seldom uses the Internet, and it's impossible for Moscow video stores to sell them.

He was friends with the owner of a video store, so he asked his friend to buy a CD of Butterfly Lovers.

As a result, the owner of the video store asked all the channels and even searched all the online shopping platforms, but there was no genuine purchase channel.

A Russian netizen did find a CD with the words "Blessings of Love" through Huaxia's shopping website, but was told by a friend that it was not a genuine CD.

Sumarokov is a world-renowned violinist. Listening to music, he definitely cannot accept a CD with poor sound quality. His friend did not buy it, so he can only tell the truth.

The CD cannot be purchased, and the sheet music can still be found on the Internet.

Sumarokov occasionally played this piece by himself, and after a few days, he still hoped to get a CD of "Blessed Lovers".

So, according to the official correspondence address of the Huaxia Art Troupe, I wrote a letter and sent it.

A week later, the letter arrived on the desk of Song Yuntao, head of the art troupe.

He asked a translator to translate Russian into Chinese. After reading it, he was a little surprised.

He was not sure whether the Sumarokov who wrote the letter was the famous Russian violinist.

However, the content of the letter is only to hope to get a CD of "Blessed Lovers".

This requirement is not high.

Song Yuntao called Lu Xianger directly and explained the situation.

Lu Xianger promised to send a CD of "Blessed Lovers" to the address.

After agreeing, Lu Xianger made a request to read the letter.

This request was not too much, so Song Yuntao had someone scan the letter and sent it to Lu Xianger.

After Lu Xiang'er got the letter, she ran home happily, put her arms around Fang Xing's neck and said, "Guess who wrote me the letter."

"Who is it?" Fang Xing looked suspicious.

"Sumarokov." Lu Xianger held up the phone in front of Fang Xing and showed it, "Look."

The title of this letter was addressed to the Huaxia Art Troupe, but in essence, it was addressed to Lu Xianger.

It was just because Sumarokov did not have Lu Xianger's mailing address, so he had to send the letter to the Huaxia Art Troupe's mailing address.

"It seems to be true, are you sure it's not the same name and surname?" Fang Xing asked.

"It shouldn't be possible. Their names are so long. Hurry up and send me a CD, and send it urgently." Lu Xianger said.

Regardless of whether the famous Sumarokov wrote the letter, he sent the letter all the way just for a CD of "Blessings of Love", even for ordinary people, this love is worth a CD.

"Okay, I'll arrange for someone to send a CD to you." Fang Xing agreed, and without waiting for the next day, he sent a message to the executive agent to do it.

……

This little episode was only known to those who saw the letter in China, and it was not spread on the Internet.

In Moscow, the news that Sumarokov wrote a letter asking for a CD of the concerto spread in the music circle and became a topic of conversation among many musicians after dinner.

Since knowing that the world-famous violinist also likes "The Butterfly Lovers", Lu Xianger is more confident than ever when practicing the piano.

During the piano practice, the time gradually entered May.

It's the month of the Tchaikovsky International Violin Competition.

During the May Day holiday, Lu Xianger had no time to go out to play, so she stayed at home to practice piano.

After the long vacation, Fang Xing arranged the itinerary and flew to Moscow with Lu Xianger three days in advance.

Fang Xing asked the management team to rent a training room in Moscow in advance.

After arriving in Moscow, there are still three days before the start of the first round.

Lu Xianger seized the time to adjust her work and rest, and practiced piano in the training room in her spare time.

As the date of the competition is getting closer, the intensity of piano practice is slowly slowing down, and more rest is needed to maintain the best condition.

5 month 10 number.

The Tchaikovsky International Violin Competition officially begins.

Lu Xianger went to submit the repertoire to be played.

The competition is divided into three rounds, and contestants need to submit three rounds of repertoire in advance.

Allow time for the symphony orchestra to prepare the repertoire.

The repertoires submitted by most of the contestants are all world famous songs.

All symphony orchestras know it, and only a few songs are relatively unorthodox.

Among them, "The Butterfly Lovers" is the most partial.

This concerto has frequently appeared in the music circle recently, but it has gained a certain popularity, but there are not many symphony orchestras that can play this concerto.

It just so happened that the organizer of the Tchaikovsky International Violin Competition hired the Moscow Symphony Orchestra as the ensemble for the third round of the competition.

Originally, the Moscow Symphony Orchestra was one of the orchestras that often cooperated with the Tchaikovsky Competition.

It's just that due to the schedule, there may be differences in the symphony orchestras for each round of the competition.

The third round happened to be the Moscow Symphony Orchestra.

This symphony orchestra has already played "Blessed Lovers" at the friendship between the two countries, and there is no such thing as not being able to play the music.

……

With the start of the Tchaikovsky International Violin Competition, violinists from all over the world gathered in Moscow.

There are also music lovers from all over the world who specially rushed to Moscow to watch this game.

At the same time, the organizer also cooperates with the webcast platform to broadcast this competition live.

Austrian violinist Patrick Petter also arrived in Moscow two days earlier.

Fang Xing and Lu Xiang'er also met the Austrian fat man in the restaurant, but they didn't go up to say hello.

After all, this time is a competitor, it would be better to keep a little distance.

three days later.

The first round begins.

The repertoires played in the first round are all Tchaikovsky's famous pieces.

This round of competition is mainly to test the basic skills of the contestants.

A total of 106 violin players participated in the competition. After the first round, 76 were eliminated, and only 30 contestants entered the second round.

Lu Xianger played an excerpt from the first movement of Tchaikovsky's "Violin Concerto in D Major".

The performance was done in one go, very smoothly.

Three days later, the results of the first round were announced.

Lu Xianger's name is on the list.

After seeing her name, Lu Xianger continued to look down.

Unsurprisingly, Patrick Pate's name is also on the list.

After all, he is a well-known violinist in Austria. As long as there are no accidents, he will definitely pass the first round.

The second round will be held 10 days after the end of the first round, that is, on May 5.

After the first round of competition, the level of the remaining 30 contestants is not low.

So, from the second round onwards, the competition started to get intense.

Lu Xianger prepared for the second round for a week.

In the second round of the competition, Lu Xianger played an excerpt from the second movement of "Violin Concerto in D Major".

This world famous song is full of love and hate, full of emotions.

After the second round, Lu Xianger began to feel nervous.

Because the level of the contestants in the second round was obviously much higher.

Moreover, there are only 10 promotion places in this round, which means that 20 contestants will be eliminated.

It is the competition judges who score.

As long as the judges score, there are personal subjective preferences. There may be dark horses appearing, or there may be players who are eliminated by surprise.

Therefore, even if Lu Xianger felt that she played well during the competition, she did not dare to guarantee 100% promotion.

Day three of the second round.

The organizers announced the list of advances to the third round.

Since the list only has the names of ten people, basically at a glance, if there are, there are, and if there are no, there are no.

Lu Xianger and Fang Xing stayed in the hotel and waited until the announcement of the promotion list, then opened the official website of the Tchaikovsky International Violin Competition, and then clicked on the latest announcement.

The network speed is relatively average, and the progress bar of the web page has been advanced for two seconds before opening.

The page shows that at a glance, it is a name.

Fang Xing saw a relatively short name in the middle at a glance.

Compared with the names of people in other countries, the names of Chinese people are slightly shorter, and the structure is also very special.

Even if it is written in English letters, it can be recognized at a glance.

When Fang Xing saw Lu Xianger's name, he immediately turned his head, held her face in his hands, and kissed her hard on her little mouth.

Lu Xianger was kissed by force, but she still stared at the webpage with a pair of dark eyes, and confirmed her name on it again and again, then heaved a sigh of relief, pushed Fang Xing's claws away and said angrily: "Do you want to bang?" kill me?"

"Look, see if that fat man from Austria has advanced." Fang Xing changed the subject.

The two searched again, and soon found the name of Patrick Pater.

"Sure enough, I've been promoted." Lu Xiang'er showed the expected expression, and at the same time began to get nervous.

This means that the two will become opponents again in the third round.

Last time.

At the Paganini International Violin Competition, Lu Xianger won the gold medal, while Patrick Pater won the silver medal.

This time, they also advanced to the third round of the Tchaikovsky International Violin Competition.

It seems that history is repeating itself, but no one can be sure of the final result.

……

After confirming to advance to the third round, Lu Xianger began to hurry up to practice piano.

In the third round of the competition, two pieces of music need to be played, one of which is fixed by Tchaikovsky, and the other can be chosen by oneself.

This year's Tchaikovsky International Violin Competition is being broadcast live online.

However, the live broadcast does not have a commentary to explain the game throughout the whole process.

The game is relatively long. In fact, watching the live broadcast of the game is like listening to music on the Internet, and it is pure music.

For ordinary audiences, it is easy to get tired of listening to it for a long time, and even feel bored.

After all, the symphony orchestra still has to listen to the live version to experience its charm.

Therefore, many viewers turn on the live broadcast after watching it for a while and then turn it off.

Domestic viewers who followed this game basically only cared about Lu Xianger's game.

After the segmented game video came out, Lu Xianger's game video had a very high number of views on domestic video sites.

In addition, there is also Patrick Pater's game video, which has a relatively high playback volume.

After all, this Austrian violinist is famous in China because he won a silver medal.

After the video of the first round and the second round of the segmented competition came out, the entertainment media followed up and carried out a wave of reports.
