pianist from the sea

Chapter 185 Bravo!

Luca, Andre, and others came here to listen to Fu Tiao's jazz, because Fu Tiao's jazz is definitely popular recently, especially his jazz adaptation of Chopin's works as the champion of the Chopin International Piano Competition , taking this gimmick to the next level.

But because Fu Tiao didn't put those videos on YouTube, and Wu Hong didn't put his stolen videos on YouTube, so not many people actually know what kind of situation Fu Tiao's Jazz is like. .

Most people just heard about it from other friends, and only people like Andre knew Fu Tiao's jazz level before coming to Fu Tiao's concert.

Therefore, under the mentality that almost most of them hold Fu Tiao's jazz playing well, many of them do not have such great expectations for Fu Tiao's classical music.

However, when those people who were expecting to hear Fu Tiao’s jazz came to the concert hall and heard Fu Tiao’s classical performance, they were really shocked. They never imagined that Fu Tiao’s classical music could be played so well. .

But thinking that Fu Tiao had won the Chopin International Piano Competition before Jazz, this matter seemed to be taken for granted. This sense of confusion made many people feel a little bit confused and unreal.

It’s as if you heard that a certain shop’s desserts are particularly delicious, and many people who like desserts call it the existence of the God of Desserts. Then you ran over to eat this dessert, and found that there were actually a batch of main dishes ahead.

Just when you were thinking about eating casually and looking at the main course, and fooling yourself to concentrate on dessert, you suddenly find that this main course is delicious, and all the ingredients are handled perfectly, which is simply perfect.

Looking back at the chef's information, the dessert chef is actually a chef at the state banquet level.

However, the price of such a meal is not expensive. It is not like the Michelin-starred three-star meal that is not full after tens of thousands of dollars, but hundreds of dollars per person, that is, thousands of scalpers.

This was Andre's surprise.

According to Fu Tiao's original price, the price of the most expensive ticket is 80 euros, this is not too cost-effective.

At this moment, Luca has almost forgotten the 500 yuan that Andre cheated on him before, and became extremely excited instead.

As for the set of Chopin’s Prelude just now, the feeling of hearing it in such a good location, and after deducting the accommodation fee and the expenses other than the ticket, there is really no problem with this ticket price!Absolutely great value!
"Is this the level of the champion of the Chopin International Piano Competition? Are the current champions of the Chopin International Piano Competition so strong?"

Now that Fu Diao has left the stage for an intermission, the people around him also dispersed. Luca didn't bother to hide his inner excitement. He squeezed the armrest tightly with his hands and looked at Ender next to him with great excitement. Lie said.

"The interpretation of this music is really amazing! Did you hear it? The part of Chopin's complete set of preludes just now, da da di da, the contrast between the weak and fortissimo! There is also the tension of the music before and after, it is perfect! This The level of interpretation of the prelude can be ranked among the top three among all the masters I have heard. If you add that those masters have recently become a little weaker and their performance level may become worse and worse, Fu's performance might be able to reach the first place!"

"Okay, okay, I know how you feel, don't get excited."

Seeing Luka like this, Andre couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "Now, if I call you to listen to Fu Tiao's concert, won't it be a loss?"

"..."

Luka froze suddenly, glanced at Andre beside him, took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and said, "Forget it, you won't lose money."

"It's good if you don't lose money. There is still half a concert to come, so I don't know what work Fu will play in the second half of this time."

"By the way, doesn't Fu have a program? A book introducing this concert?"

"It doesn't seem to be there. I looked around and I didn't see such a piece of paper in their hands...Maybe there will be paper publicity? I'll take a look."

After all, Andre patted Luca on the shoulder, got up and went outside to look for Fu Tiao's brochure or performance program.

After all, no matter what concert there should be, there should be a similar program list there for people to read.

But he couldn't find it after searching for a long time. Finally, before Fu Diao was preparing for the second half of the concert, he found a stack of A4 papers with words written on them on the table outside the concert hall.

He picked up the A4 paper with a little curiosity and glanced at it, and couldn't help being a little speechless.

This piece of paper is Fu Tiao's program list, which is very simple and concise.

Except for the header of Fu Tiao's solo recital on the top and the business card of the Royal Academy of Music in Brussels, there is no longer any decoration, just a long list of center-aligned programs in black default font.

On the front are 24 piano preludes by Chopin.

On the reverse side are Chopin's twelve etudes.

From Chopin etude Op10-1, all the way to Chopin's etude OP10-12, it's that simple.

It happened to be a set of works in the first half and a set of works in the second half.

I feel that if the time is longer, Fu Tiao may choose to play all Chopin's etudes for you.

"But in this case, it feels like the arrangement of this concert is not so reasonable?"

Andre returned to his seat with the A4 paper in his hand, handed it to Luca, and whispered.

"It feels like this. Although the time is full, it always feels like something is missing. Is the core of this concert? There is always a feeling of piling up materials."

"It's okay, it's normal to perform like this at a normal concert, right?"

Luca looked at the concert program in his hand, and didn't feel anything wrong, but felt very reasonable.

"The previous set of preludes is based on musicality, and the most important thing is to show the player's understanding and interpretation of music, while the latter set of etudes focuses on showing skills? In the case of ensuring the most basic musicality Under the circumstances, he can show his performance skills for music to the fullest, and I feel that this allocation is very reasonable."

"Well, that's right, but there are very few people who choose to play a set of Chopin etudes for the whole concert."

Andre just thought about it for a while, and didn't bother to think about it, because at this moment Fu Tiao had already walked out of the stage again.

Compared with Fu Tiao in the first half, Fu Tiao at this moment seems to have changed a little bit. This change is not in appearance, but in aura.

Fu Tiao's aura seemed to become stronger and more outgoing when he came to the stage.

Everyone applauded. Amidst the applause, Fu Tiao bowed slightly to the crowd and sat in front of the piano.

The applause gradually dissipated, and the concert hall once again fell into silence.

It's just that this time it didn't seem to be peaceful. Fu Tiao's aura was constantly agitating, and his hands were raised, hovering over the piano keyboard, motionless.

"I always feel that Fu Tiao's aura seems to have changed? It has become a little sharper? It's completely different from the previous feeling?" Andre whispered: "Did you feel it?"

"Well, it's a bit, it feels a bit..."

Before Luka finished speaking, Fu Tiao's hands fell down suddenly.

boom!
The sound of the piano sounded, and an extremely thick bass cut through the silence. Accompanied by the slightly hurried and confused upward decomposed chords, Chopin's etude Op10-1 and chant fugitive appeared.

The first time he heard this music, Luca's eyes couldn't help but twitch, he clenched his fist hard, and tapped lightly on his thigh.

"Sure enough."

"Really?" Andre didn't know why.

"Chopin Op10, Chopin's early music, Fu Tiao adjusted his aura to make his aura more in line with Chopin's early days, when the country was about to collapse, and the resentment and spirit of fleeing all over Europe, that is to say, Fu Tiao intentionally controlled it. The music he plays is much younger than before."

"Ok?"

Andre couldn't help being startled, turned his head to look at Fu Tiao, and began to listen to Fu Tiao's interpretation of the music seriously, and then his eyes widened involuntarily.

As Luca just whispered, Fu Diao's interpretation of music does not only exist in the music itself, but he has also made some efforts outside the music that ordinary people have not noticed at all.

For example, the slight change in the aura just now.

This kind of feeling not only makes Fu Tiao's own aura more suitable for Chopin, but also does not affect the audience's perception when they hear Fu Tiao's interpretation of Chopin.

Just like the sea, everything is changing.

Andre couldn't say anything at this moment, he looked at Fu Tiao and didn't know what he should say now.

perfect!

He has only one idea now.

For an ordinary jazz teacher like him, his familiarity with Chopin should be relatively high, and he has also heard Chopin from many people.

You must know that this set of works is not only performed by a few people such as Fu Tiao, this set of works can be regarded as the most widely known set of works.

Chopin's etude is even a must-have work in the entrance examination.

Normally, the entrance examination of the Conservatory of Music will have the following four works, one polyphonic work from the Baroque period, one sonata from the classical period, one etude from the Romantic period and one modernist work.

The polyphony of the Baroque period refers to Bach's twelve equal temperament.

The sonatas of the classical period are the sonatas of people like Beethoven, Mozart, and Haydn.

Needless to say, the etudes of the romantic period, more than 70% of people will choose Chopin's etudes, and some of the remaining people will also choose Liszt's etudes.

If you go to listen to the works of the art test, if you even listen to the head, you will find that the works most people choose are those.

What east wind, chant, black key, sea, rapids, butterflies and so on...

Except for the slow etude of Chopin Op10-3, almost all other fast etudes have been played badly.

You don’t even look at the performances of these ordinary students, you just go to the Internet to search for some works played by masters, and you will find that even those masters play a ridiculous number of Chopin etudes.

In other words, no matter which masters play Chopin, they have basically played this type of etude.

Regardless of whether they are really played as etudes for moving fingers or as music, the status of Chopin's etudes in the piano world has basically been placed here, and few people can play piano works without touching Chopin etudes.

No matter how little they touch, they will at least touch one or two songs, so that they won't even touch them at all.

As a professor of the Conservatory of Music, even though he is only a professor of jazz, Andre has listened to many, many Chopin etudes.

There are only a handful of Chopin etudes that can be considered perfect by him.

Now there is one more in front of him.

Listening to Fu Tiao's music, he didn't even know what to say now, his whole brain was blank, empty, and there was nothing.

He just wanted to sit there quietly and enjoy Fu Tiao's music, and he didn't care about anything else.

Not to mention Chopin's first work, the second work Op10-2, also known as "Ants Climb a Tree" in Chinese, is terribly played by Fu Diao.

In addition to the chromatic running melody of three, four, five fingers on your left hand, you can also clearly hear the main melody played by Fu Diao's thumb.

Every melody is performed clearly at an extremely fast speed, without any ambiguity.

If you don't see it with your own eyes, but just listen to Fu Tiao's performance, you will even feel that there is not one person playing on the stage, but two.

The melody part performed perfectly.

And when Op10-3 parting, which is a slower lyrical movement, Fu Tiao's performance is even more terrifying.

Without paying special attention to the technique, the beauty of Fu Tiao music has exploded to the extreme, even stronger than the beauty of the first half of the concert. This kind of beauty does not need to be interpreted much, or even explained. You You can feel the beauty in it.

Many people couldn't help pinching their legs after hearing it, so as not to get too excited.

The beauty of this kind of music is like the calm waves licking the soles of the feet, itching.

And when it comes to the fourth torrent, Op10-4, there are even more changes.

After Andre heard Fu Tiao's torrent, he couldn't help the torrent.

There are many changes, like the sea, you can never find out the emotions in it.

Every minute and every centimeter is changing, but this change is not random, but has its own basis in it.

When the fifth work, Chopin's Op10-5 black key came out, Andre instantly understood the logic of Fu Tiao's set of works.

It was Fu Diao himself.

From the beginning, until now, everything is changing.

Chopin's age is also changing, and everything Chopin has experienced is also changing, but the only constant is Fu Tiao himself.

The boundless sea, the ever-changing sea, the surging and wide sea, the unique sea.

Fu Tiao is the sea, which holds everything like the sea and interprets every piece of work.

While restoring the original content of the work itself, it can also express enough self.

This level, this strength...

"Only talking about Chopin, Fu Tiao's current level and strength may really be No.1 under the top class?"

Andre looked at Fu Tiao in front of him, couldn't help but swallowed lightly, covered his mouth and whispered to Luca beside him.

His eyes were full of shock, he couldn't imagine that Chopin could play so perfectly.

The focus is not on the niche works in the first half, but on works that are so popular that they cannot be more popular.

Fu Diao didn't feel any strenuous effort in playing this kind of works. Judging from his performance, you can even say that these works he played are easy and freehand.

It's hard for Andre to say what Fu Tiao's specific level is. He can only simply judge that Fu Tiao may reach the top of Chopin's first-line, and the distance from those top masters may be only a flash of inspiration and some recordings prove it.

After all, his current strength, especially his ability to play Chopin is definitely not as good as Fu Tiao, and he even feels that some piano teachers in their school may not be able to play Chopin better than Fu Tiao, so he really can't listen to it. Come out and find out where the Fu Tiao is not played well.

For everything that Fu Diao played, he could only yell awesome, but he couldn't say anything else.

And Luka next to him is similar, his expression still seems to be a little stiff, watching Fu Tiao's mouth twitch slightly.

When he heard Andre's voice, he couldn't help but turned his head and glanced, grinning.

"He is a champion, what are you? The champion of the Chopin International Piano Competition."

"But the previous few Chopin International Piano Competitions were not so strong, I remember..."

"Shh!"

Just as Andre covered his mouth and whispered to Luka, he was suddenly slapped on the head by someone behind him. When he turned around, he found that the man was glaring with his eyes wide open, and put a finger on the Before his lips, he hissed vigorously: "Quiet!"

"..."

Andre looked at the people behind him, then glanced at Fu Tiao in front again, sighed deeply, leaned his body back on the seat, listened to Fu Tiao's music quietly, and enjoyed Fu Tiao's music. int.

The music quickly progresses to the final chapter, op10-12, the revolution.

Just like its name, under the background of the failure of the Warsaw Revolution, the pain and sadness in the music are used by everyone wave after wave, and under this sadness, there are still extremely tenacious people who do not want to surrender. will.

The pain and sadness are released to the fullest, but the music is sad but not sad.

Under Fu Tiao's control, everything has been given the most accurate and appropriate explanation.

When you listen to Fu Tiao's performance, you can't even say any other words to describe Fu Tiao's interpretation of this set of works except perfection.

With the fall of the final chord, Fu Tiao's hand waved violently, and with a trace of sweat leaving the tip of his hair, the flickering under the light made Fu Tiao even more radiant.

At the same time, thunderous applause resounded throughout the concert hall.

Almost everyone stood up and shouted for Fu Tiao with all their strength.

"Bravo!"

　I owe the chapter when I get better, and I’m still pulling it now, woo woo woo orz
