pianist from the sea

Chapter 215 The Horror of Cold Hands and Feet...

Fu Tiao went to the bar to celebrate with everyone, but he and Kapustin chatted for a long time in the room behind the bar.

When he first arrived at the bar, he chatted with everyone, but after that, no one knew where he had gone.

It was not even particularly clear that he was in Paris.

Everyone didn't care, they just found a place to chat and drink, that's all.

For Europeans, this type of party chat is the most frequent party.

Everyone chatted awkwardly over there with a glass of wine, and they could chat for hours casually.

Some of them also played on stage.

I don’t know if it’s because Fu Diao played too powerfully on the stage before, but now almost no one is willing to play some virtuosic works, and everyone basically plays some simple, more lyrical works.

After all, compared to Fu Tiao's musicality and technique, it seems more acceptable that a single musicality is not as good as Fu Tiao's.

With everyone chatting, time passed quickly.

That night, Fu Tiao's video was uploaded to YouTube.

Some Chinese people uploaded these videos to websites such as PiliPili.

Because of Fu Tiao's requirements, everyone tried to make their videos as stable as possible, and as far as possible, there would be no factors such as jitter that would adversely affect the video.

Under the superposition of various factors, Fu Tiao's video was quickly pushed.

Zhu Wenliang, an ordinary jazz student at the Huaguo Conservatory of Music, his teacher has just assigned him a work, asking him to practice Kapustin's concert etude, Op40-3.
Although it was said that it was requested by the teacher, in fact, he himself told the teacher that he wanted to practice this piece.

After all, Kapustin's status in the hearts of people who like to listen to jazz is a lofty one.

No living person has ever written better than Kapustin's jazz.

Even if there is, many people think that they are jazz that is closer to modernist works, and they don't think this person is traditional jazz.

Zhu Wenliang flipped through the works in his hand, with a very calm expression, walked quickly to the piano room he had reserved, put down the music score in his hand, and took out his mobile phone.

It's not in the traditional sense of playing the piano while playing the mobile phone, or live broadcasting, but he intends to see if there are any suitable examples to learn from.

As a student of the Conservatory of Music, before he plays a piece of work, he has to listen to how other people play it, so that he can practice after he has a good idea.

Although it may be more similar to the playing style of those top pianists, for students like them who have not yet matured, it is already a supreme honor to be praised as similar.

He opened his PiliPili account named "Yan Chou" and quickly searched for the version that suits him.

The main reason why I didn't use music software like NetEase Cloud is...

he likes.

And the name of this account named Yan Chou is not because he is ugly, but because his name is Zhu Wenliang.

Because of the allusion of "Zhan Yan Chou Zhu Wen Chou" and his name, many people liked to call him "Zhan Yan Chou, Zhu Wenliang" when he was young.

Although basically no one would call him that after college, everyone communicated normally, but the nickname Yan Chou came to his heart, and he habitually named all his social media accounts "Yan Chou".

He quickly flipped through the videos on pilipili, looking for a version that suits him, but he didn't get used to it after watching a few.

Only the previous version recorded and performed by Kapustin himself is not bad, it sounds comfortable, and he likes it very much.

However, the interpretation of this version may seem too classical for him, and he always feels something is wrong, so he did not continue to focus on the version played by Kapustin himself, but to see if there is any Versions played by others.

He searched for many times but couldn't find it, so he couldn't help but sighed, found a familiar nickname, and sent a message to that person.

Yan Chou: "@法奥Piano, brother, are you there? Let's squeak!"

Faol Piano: "?"

Fao Piano: "Fart off! Don't dawdle, I have something to do here."

Yan Chou: "Nothing, just to ask you something, do you have any recommended Kapustin OP40-3 version, I remember you are also a Kapustin fan, you bookmark it There are many versions, so I'm a little curious..."

Fao Piano: "Capstin? 40-3? Are you sure? Wait..."

Fao Piano, who was on the opposite side of the phone, was lying on the bed at this moment, looking at the video that Fu Tiao had posted before.

Since Fu Tiao won the Chopin International Piano Competition, Fao has been very concerned about Fu Tiao.

He kept studying Fu Tiao's performance, thinking about what Fu Tiao's interpretation in those places represented, and why he played it that way.

The more he studied, the more shocked he felt.

Especially those audience-recorded jazz encores by Fu Diao.

Except for Fu Tiao's first jazz encore, which was recorded with a lot of noise and vibration, which made the overall sound effect extremely bad, the other times were very good.

It may be because Fu Tiao asked someone to record over there with a mobile phone. All the videos are extremely clear and stable, and there is no such buzzing vibration sound.

And now, based on his previous experience, he waited for a while the day after Fu Tiao's performance, and he discovered the encores of Fu Tiao recently posted by Fu Tiao's fans.

Just as he thought, Fu Tiao's technical sense and musicality are simply god-given treasures.

Not only that, but the combination of classical jazz in Fu Diao made him even more amazing.

He always felt that Fu Diao's performance might be better than Kapustin's.

If she had to choose, he would have chosen Fu Tiao immediately, not Kapustin.

Therefore, he looked at the video of Fu Tiao playing in his hand, thought for a while, and sent the link to Yan Chou, that is, Zhu Wenliang.

Fao Piano: "@颜世，诺, this is the link [video link], you can see for yourself, here are a few other angles of view, you can choose your own perspective."

Yan Chou: "Thank you very much! But what do you mean by angle of view? Can you explain?"

Yan Chou: "?"

Yan Chou: "Where are people?"

Zhu Wenliang didn't expect that in just a few seconds, Fao from the opposite side suddenly sent him a link, what more perspectives are there.

I just don't know why Faol ran away after posting the link.

After thinking for a while, he directly opened the link Faol sent him, and read it seriously.

This seems to be a video posted by a Chinese. The video is Fu Tiao's encore in the Gaveau Concert Hall in France.

Fu Tiao?France?Gavo Concert Hall?Encore?
He couldn't help but be taken aback.

Fu Tiao knew that the champion of the Chopin International Piano Competition was very popular this year. Many domestic media reported Fu Tiao's video there, and some people even boasted that he would definitely surpass Li Diyun.

Especially after Li Diyun habitually overturned, this kind of bragging became more common.

Even he, an ordinary jazz student, has heard the story of Fu Tiao and knows that Fu Tiao won the championship.

As for Fu Diao going to the Gaveau Concert Hall in France...

He didn't pay much attention to Fu Tiao, but he remembered that some people seemed to gossip before, saying that the relationship between Fu Tiao and the French School of Music was not particularly good. Why did he go to France to hold a concert?
It is not the top concert hall in France, such as the Paris Opera House, or the Paris Philharmonic.

It was a Gavo concert hall whose name he hadn't heard.

Zhu Wenliang thought about it for a while, but he didn't start listening to Fu Tiao's performance right away. He began to wonder what the concert hall where Fu Tiao played in was like.

As a curious baby, if he doesn't find out the truth of the matter, he has no way to calm himself down and listen to Fu Tiao's music.

He quickly looked up the information of that concert hall, and when he saw the contents above, he immediately understood.

This is a top concert hall in France. Although the overall scale is not particularly large, with only about 1000 seats, the status of this concert hall is extremely lofty.

Impressionist composers such as Debussy and Ravel had their premieres here.

Looking at it this way, the reason why Fu Diao performed in this concert hall is that the schedule is not arranged, or the reputation of people like Debussy and Ravel is valued.

After seeing the information of the Gavo Concert Hall, he returned to the place in the previous video, hesitantly looking at the encore above.

He knows that this work is difficult to be able to go to the main performance stage, but to play it with encore...

He didn't know why he felt a little awkward.

But thinking that it was recommended by Fao Piano, the friend of the Up master, he felt relieved for the time being.

He knew Fao. Although this person's performance level was relatively average among all pianists, or even the kind below the middle, his understanding of music was still very good, and he could hear every pianist clearly. How good or bad a player is.

And Faol's aesthetics is very similar to his, and he also likes to listen to the version that Faol thinks sounds good.

He finds it ugly, and Faol doesn't like the rubbish version, no matter how famous the player is.

So whatever version he wanted to hear, he went to Faol.

I have believed in Faol so many times before, so there is no need to refuse this time.

Without any hesitation, he directly turned on Fu Tiao's performance.

The camera in the video was shot vertically at first, but the photographer turned the video horizontally because he didn’t feel well, and Zhu Wenliang was about to suffer from his spine disease.

However, such adjustments did not affect the sound quality of the performance. The man's hands were very steady, and after the adjustments were completed, he completely stood still, waiting for the beginning of Fu Tiao's performance.

And Fu Tiao on the video, at this moment, was already sitting in his seat, raised his hand, and then pressed it down.

when!
The sound of the piano sounded, and an extremely powerful sense of classical jazz rushed over in an instant.

Zhu Wenliang, who originally had some doubts and doubts, was taken aback for a moment, looking at the Fu Tiao that was being played, his mind was full of question marks.

Wait, what was it just now?
Just this Kapustin Op40-3 played by Fu Tiao, this one is obviously jazz, but it sounds very classical.

If according to Kapustin's statement, it is a classical work, but there is a strange fusion of jazz?
This feeling directly hit Zhu Wenliang's heart.

This feeling is really great.

I really shouldn't question Faol's aesthetics just now.

After all, the two of them searched so many recording versions together, and everyone liked the same type, yet I was still questioning him just now?
Except for the recording of this video, which needs to be watched with twisted necks, everything else is fine.

Hearing all this in front of him, he couldn't help but fell silent, listening to Fu Tiao's performance in a daze.

From the decomposition and stacking of those jazz chords at the beginning, to the running of the ring finger melody of Fu Tiao later, his goosebumps never went down once.

The feeling of playing Fu Tiao is really great!

He really likes the effect of Fu Tiao's performance.

Incomparably clear and smooth melodic lines, as well as those melodic changes, and layers like polyphony.

Just from the Kapustin works he has listened to so many times, he really can't find any dissatisfaction in Fu Tiao.

This is not what shocked him the most. What shocked him even more was Fu Tiao's adaptation after the end of this work, which he himself made.

Although the melodic performance may not be so interesting, to be honest, the shocking sense of Fu Chao's technique makes up for it all.

Let your attention be completely on the techniques played by Fu Tiao, not on the melody.

Pure dazzling skills bring the most extreme enjoyment.

Fu's dazzling skills directly overturned his imagination, making him even willing to give up thinking.

It's all downright horrific, and just as, so much fun.

After Fu Tiao finished playing, he immediately flipped through the comments below.

The first was Faol's.

"My favorite pianist played my favorite work, what is two-way running? This is called two-way running! I really like this version, if you are also a Kapustin lover, or Fu For lovers of the tune, you must listen to this version he played, and I declare him to be a god!"

Below a whole bunch of various master balls, snapping Faol Piano.

And further down, there are other people's comments.

"Fu Tiao's interpretation of this work is really amazing. It is completely different from Kapustin's. Compared with Kapustin's version, I like Fu Tiao's version."

"Indeed, many details are handled very well. The feeling is really good. I like it very much. I really hope that he can play all eight concert works."

"What's enough for eight songs? Tell others that we can't listen to music, and just interpret all of Kapustin's works!"

"Passionate, delicate, sunny, free, perfect playing!"

"After watching Fu Tiao's performance, um, I know it, and then I picked up the score... Um, are these two the same song?"

"I blow up Fu Tiao's performance!"

"..."

All praises, even if it was shot from a bad angle, you still need to tilt your head to watch it. This video has more than 1 views.

You must know that the piano performance video itself is a niche, and Kapustin is a niche among the niche.

This kind of video can have eight or nine thousand views, which is already very good.

Now it can reach [-] views in less than a day, which may have been driven by the popularity of Fu Tiao itself.

Seeing all this, for some reason, Zhu Wenliang suddenly became excited, and he immediately sent a message to Fao Piano.

Yan Chou: "Awesome! Where did you get the video? How do you know that Fu Tiao played this encore? What the hell, this is really amazing!"

Yan Chou: "To be honest, I was trembling when I listened to Fu Tiao's performance. I really didn't expect Fu Tiao's jazz performance to be so good..."

Yan Chou: "Fao, do you have any other videos of Fu Tiao playing? I want to see it! Recommend me some versions!"

Fao Piano: "Search Fu Tiao Encore by yourself. All the jazz in Fu Tiao are encores. Except for the one in Amsterdam, every other station is fine."

Yan Chou: "Thank you! Fu Tiao's jazz is really noble, Fu Tiao is the best in the world!"

Fao Piano: "Well said, Fu Diao is the best in the world!"

After Zhu Wenliang and Faol went mad together, they went to do their own things.

But the same thing is that the two are slightly excited.

Fao continued to look at Fu Tiao's works. He planned to study Fu Tiao's performance method and see if he could make a video.

But Zhu Wenliang kept flipping through the works in his hands, listening to Fu Tiao's performance, and getting ready to start practicing.

At the same time, he did not forget to send the fragments of Fu Tiao's performance to his teacher, and told the teacher his own reference.

Although I don't know if his teacher will read it, but no matter what, he must send a copy.

He kept dragging the Kapustin played by Fu Tiao, began to listen carefully to the details in Fu Tiao's music, and then began to practice.

If this piece of work is simply discussed and practiced, he probably understood it after using it a dozen times.

The key is how to interpret the work itself.

He played the work in his hands slowly, thinking about his own performance in his head, practicing without any stagnation in his hands.

once, twice, three times...

Ten times, twenty times, thirty times...

The more he listened, the more shocked and frightened he became.

I don't know why, but it was just goosebumps when he heard it before, but now listening to the details of Fu Tiao's performance, he felt inexplicably that he couldn't play the piano anymore.

Why does he always play the same note with the same speed and strength, but it is not as good as Fu Tiao?

Fu Tiao him...

How much work was done on those details?

Why have I listened to it so many times and tried to imitate it so many times, but I can't even imitate one percent of Fu Tiao's charm?

Playing Fu Tiao...

Too scary, right?
Zhu Wenliang looked at the piano in front of him, and listened to the comparison between himself and Fu Tiao's recording, and couldn't help swallowing.

Cold hands and feet.
