pianist from the sea

Chapter 148 This is Fu Diao, and Chopin

Fu Tiao stood still at the backstage of the concert hall, loosened the collar of his neck, moved his shoulders, and calmed down his emotions a little.

On the stage, Zhao Chengzhen was receiving everyone's congratulations for him. Applause and shouts followed one after another, and there was no intention of letting Zhao Chengzhen go down.

After all, it's no longer a competition, it's just a concert, and everyone is just expressing their love for Zhao Chengzhen through the concert.

Fu Tiao stood in the backstage waiting for a long time before Zhao Chengzhen left the stage, walked to the top of the entrance of the concert hall, looked at Fu Tiao below, couldn't help but smiled easily, and said softly.

"Having said that, it seems like we've been like this since the beginning of the game."

"This way?" Before Fu Tiao could react to what Zhao Chengzhen said, he pointed to himself, and Fu Tiao who was preparing under the stage, walked down a few steps, and said helplessly.

"I play the end first, and then you go, it seems to be like this all the time, nothing has changed, I thought that if I won the championship, then you will play before me, but I didn't expect that you will win the championship in the end." Champion, and still behind me."

"That's it..." Fu Tiao suddenly came to his senses, and then smiled helplessly: "It seems to be like this, and it seems to have always been like this. You are on the stage, and I am off the stage."

"Yeah, this time I saw that we were still in the same position, so I suddenly thought of this. It's really... It's only been a few weeks, but I don't know why it's inexplicable, it always feels like a long time, It’s been so long that I’ve been a little dazed.”

After all, Zhao Chengzhen walked down a few steps, walked to Fu Tiao's side, patted him on the shoulder, and said softly: "Although it may not feel right for me to say, but how should I say it, come on, enjoy the stage, It feels really good to be on stage.”

After finishing speaking, he walked past Fu Tiao and walked into the distance.

The signing of the concert in the distance should be ready, and he can prepare it in advance now.

But just as he was about to leave, Fu Tiao suddenly spoke to Zhao Chengzhen.

"Zhao!"

"Ok?"

"Your performance, if you don't listen to it from a confrontational angle, it feels very good. To be honest, if it weren't for this game, I might like your music very much, even if your music is completely different from mine. .”

Fu Tiao smiled at Zhao Chengzhen, waved his hand, and said in a slightly emotional tone: "So, no matter what, we are on our own paths today, let's work hard together."

Zhao Chengzhen was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile, "Work hard together."

Let's talk, he walked straight into the distance without any hesitation, without any hesitation.

After today's stage, if there is no accident, they may not have any contact for several years, or even decades, until the two also become the most powerful pianists and artists in the world.

After all, everyone needs to settle down, even for a long time. Even if they can win this championship, they have obtained enough resources to train them, and they are not sure whether they can become a top pianist like Argerich in the future.

To become such a top pianist can be successful not only by relying on technology, but also by chance and luck.

Pianists like Zhu Xiaomei only gained a little bit of fame when they were the hottest, similar to Fu Tiao and the others.

As for being at the level of Lang Liangyue, it's hard to come by.

The two separated completely here, and only the staff member who reminded him to go on stage was left around Fu Tiao.

The staff glanced at the scene outside and said to Fu Tiao.

"Fu, please wait a little longer. The audience has already returned. After the lights above your heads are dimmed, you can get ready to go on stage."

"Ok."

Fu Diao nodded, standing in the backstage of the concert hall and breathing gently, so that his mood became more calm, and more in line with what he wanted to express in this concert.

He had almost prepared before, and now he is just making the final confirmation.

After negotiating and discussing with other people before, after chatting for a long time, the works he decided on were similar to the works he performed in the third round before, still taking the works in the third round as the core, and then building a whole set of works.

He played the third round of works for more than 40 minutes, and only 20 minutes more is enough for a concert.

During the 20-plus minutes, Fu Diao chose some works that were not available in the third round, such as several etudes and ballads as supplements.

The concert hall gradually became quieter, and more and more people returned to the concert hall, sitting quietly in their seats, waiting for the start of the concert.

With the reminder from the staff, the lights in the concert hall became dim, and then became darker and darker. It was extremely dark, but it was not depressing, it just felt peaceful.

click!
In this extremely quiet environment, a beam of light shines from the sky towards the Steinway that Zhao Chengzhen and Hamelin have played, and when the beam of light shines down, the concert hall becomes extremely lively. holy.

In everyone's sight there is only the piano on the stage, and nothing else.

"The next performer, Tiao Fu! Hua Guo!"

Whoa!
When they heard that Fu Tiao was about to come out, countless applause burst out instantly, and everyone was applauding with their greatest strength to welcome Fu Tiao's arrival.

They are looking forward to Fu Tiao's performance and expecting that Fu Tiao can bring them something completely different.

Hamelin, who was sitting comfortably under the stage, couldn't help being taken aback when he heard Fu Tiao's applause, and then lay down helplessly in his seat with a calm expression.

After negotiating with the staff outside the stage, Zhao Chengzhen, who had already signed the contract, heard the applause Fu Tiao received. For no reason, he couldn't help feeling a burst of envy in his heart.

It's just a difference of one rank, the applause he received was completely different from the applause Fu Diao received.

Before Fu Diao performed, the expectations of the crowd had completely caught up with the excitement of the crowd when he walked off the stage.

What is this?
Is his end not as good as Fu Tiao's starting point?
Hearing the applause that kept ringing in his ears, he couldn't help sighing. After letting the staff make arrangements, he found a random seat and sat down, leaning against the outer wall of the concert hall, waiting for Fu Tiao's performance.

He thought, if he put his attention outside the music while playing Fu Tiao, maybe...

This is the real sense of desecration of music.

Fu Diao didn't know what other people around him thought about music. He just walked to the center of the stage safely, looked at the people off the stage, put his hand on the piano easily, and faced everyone with one hand salute.

The applause instantly became more enthusiastic, but soon, when Fu Tiao sat down, the applause immediately subsided, and the concert hall returned to calm.

Everyone was looking at Fu Tiao expectantly, waiting for his performance.

Time passed by second by second, and Fu Tiao didn't move at all.

He just made his emotions more compatible with those of everyone off the stage.

When everyone gradually became a little unsteady in breath and even had doubts, he suddenly raised his hand and pressed down hard.

boom!
His fingers fell down with a bang, and as the fingers interlaced with the piano keyboard, Chopin's piano etude, op25, no12, called the sound of the sea boomed on the stage.

It was really like the sea, rushing towards everyone, bringing unparalleled shock.

Normally speaking, starting with the sea is not a particularly good choice, after all this is just a very 'simple' etude.

But for Fu Tiao, this music is not just an etude, but also his countless thoughts about himself in music. This is his introduction to his own music, Revelation.

It is the condensation of his music.

The arpeggios of both hands advance from bottom to top, and then fall from top to bottom like waves.

Everything in the music is so majestic.

If it's just ordinary majesty, it's nothing more than that. After all, if there are not many pianists in the world who rely on momentum to win, there are definitely not many, especially the majestic momentum in music.

But the problem is that Fu Tiao's music doesn't just have the momentum of the sea, he is the sea!

He is the endless, endless sea!
Each of his waves is not independent, and not only makes the momentum extremely turbulent, but what he creates is the continuity between waves.

Every part of the music is indistinct, and you don't have to listen carefully, you can hear the details in the music.

All the voices are closely connected together like a mechanical watch, and the ups and downs of each voice will drive the momentum of other voices.

It obviously sounds like a wave, but in a wave, there are several waves pushing it.

Wave after wave, before the previous wave of emotions fell, the latter wave of emotions pushed up.

This kind of feeling makes people completely speechless, and they don't know what kind of expression they should use to describe such music.

There is no feeling on the surface, but the inside is turbulent and the ground floor is majestic.

All the emotions are linked together, and finally form the sea that Fu Tiao is playing now.

Argerich, who was already in the ordinary VIP seat in the concert hall, listened to Fu Tiao's performance, his eyes lit up, and then he narrowed his eyes slightly, with the corners of his mouth raised, and looked at the cheerful old man Deng Taishan beside him, and said.

"It feels totally different, doesn't it?"

"Yes, it's completely different from what I heard before. Compared with the first round, he has really evolved too much." Deng Taishan looked at Fu Tiao eagerly, with a smile on his face.

"It would be great if he could become my student. He can win the Chopin International Piano Competition without much training. This kind of student is really rare."

"It's a pity that he doesn't need your training at all. He can become a champion player. Even if you teach him, you can't teach him a lot."

Argerich also smiled and said.

She likes Fu Tiao's performance very much. Although she doesn't particularly like Fu Tiao's performance of the sea as the beginning of the concert, but when she really heard the feeling of the music, she had to admit that this feeling is great .

She already had a general idea of ​​what the concert would be like.

This concert is Fu Tiao's personal concert, a demonstration of Fu Tiao's personal strength, and a concert for Fu Tiao to show his style to the world.

From the very beginning, Fu Diao declared to everyone that his music style is this kind of endless ocean full of power.

This feeling of the sea is not his temporary idea, but his later style as the foundation of his life, and he will never change it.

He will use his own style to interpret musicians who match him as much as possible, making their music more interesting.

Thinking of this place, Argerich couldn't help but licked his lips, and the smile on his face became even more overflowing.

It's a pity, it's a pity that she is almost 70 years old now, and she looks old and faded, otherwise, she really wants to have a little relationship with Fu Tiao, just like that one back then.

When she was young, she did not know how many top artists had super-friendship relationships, not for family or development, but for the feeling of love in art.

Too bad it's still getting old.

Thinking of this place, Argerich couldn't help chuckling, laughing at his just thought.

Sure enough, I indulged too much when I was young, and I have to pay back when I am old.

She leaned her body backwards, fully immersed herself in the music, and stopped thinking about other superfluous things.

Not only Argerich, but the guests from Huaguo, Pei Qi, Chen Gang and Shan Yi looked at each other in blank dismay.

Listening to Fu Tiao's performance, they also showed strange and unbelievable expressions.

They had no way of thinking that Fu Tiao could perform so perfectly and so interestingly.

It was completely different from what they thought at the time.

Although Pei Qi is usually relatively stable and stable, but now in front of Fu Tiao's music, he has no way to calm his mood. He couldn't help but look at the people around him, and said in a very low voice.

"Shocking..."

"Indeed, shocking..." Chen Gang did the same.

They originally thought that Fu Tiao's performance of Hai Hai etude in the first round could reach the level of the second round, but they never thought that Fu Tiao could actually make it reach the level of the third round.

What does this mean?

Doesn't this mean that Fu Diao's real strength is not just what everyone has seen so far?
Even these works that he has performed before, which are not particularly perfect and can only be regarded as excellent, can reach the current level, so what kind of state can Fu Diao's best works reach?

They didn't know it, and Fu Diao didn't show it.

Just thinking about it for a while, I felt trembling all over my body.

This Chopin International Piano Competition, while restricting the performance of the repertoire, also allowed some of Fu Tiao's abilities to be brought into play, just like dancing with shackles.

When he really took off his shackles and started to study with those world's top masters, what kind of shock could Fu Tiao give them?

They don't know, but they are full of anticipation.

Just like looking forward to Li Diyun back then, Li Diyun has been in precipitation for a few years after winning the Chopin International Piano Competition.

With every point of precipitation, their expectations for Fu Diao increased.

The music continues, and Chopin's piano etude has reached its end.

When the last note fell, Fu Tiao was not particularly excited. He just breathed a sigh of relief as if he had finished a very ordinary thing, raised his hand, and prepared to continue playing.

What he chose for this performance was not other works, but Chopin's piano etudes, op10, no1, piano, chant fugitive.

The sea just now is just his interpretation of personal style, and this chant fugitive is his construction of Chopin.

Without giving them a lot of time to breathe, Fu Tiao raised his left hand and pressed down hard, like a broken city gate, completely shattering the tranquility in everyone's hearts, with an indescribable anxiety and fear.

And the right hand is quickly breaking down the chords and walking up, just like the figure of Chopin fleeing in a hurry with only a little luggage.

For Fu Tiao, Chopin's most perfect music started when his homeland fell and he had no choice but to escape from the war zone.

Facing the powerless enemy, Chopin could only flee with his family, looking back at his home that had been destroyed by the fire, feeling extremely painful.

Until they were fleeing, passing a church in a small village that almost no one had noticed.

In the church, Chopin's music was sublimated, and he felt that his soul was comforted again, and everything he heard in his ears was like chant.

All of these make up this incomparably holy, yet fearful, Psalm Fugitive, Chopin's first piano etude.

The sound of the music almost held everyone's emotions tightly in their hands, and did not give them any chance to relax.

Crisis and holiness are like the two sides of the sea, playing with their hearts and making them unable to relax at all.

Fu Tiao's fingers are flying on the piano, running fast, the camera can hardly grasp the afterimage of his fingers, and can only see his arms dancing back and forth, bringing waves after waves.

Everything in the music is flying on the piano keyboard, giving everyone infinite reverie about music.

Until the last sound of the music fell, everyone did not get out of this simplest etude.

However, this is just the beginning, representing the foundation of Fu Tiao's music, and Fu Tiao's understanding of Chopin, the most initial.

beginning!
