pianist from the sea

Chapter 245 And Fu Tiao
The spirituality in the music is constantly trying to break through and is controlled by Fu Tiao.

It's just a pity that Fu Tiao and Klaus tried for a long time without success.

Obviously, this kind of thing doesn't happen overnight, and you won't say anything at all. Today I told you about this, you can understand it instantly, and then your musical expression will suddenly rise to a higher level.

This is actually a bit like a marginal effect.

Fu Tiao is now at a very high level, which is different from ordinary people.

Ordinary people may practice casually for a few days, and their level will improve by leaps and bounds. They will never become good, never know the piano, and be able to play some simple works on the piano.

In a few months, achieve the level from 0 to 10, or 20, 30, or even 40.

In a few more years, we can go from 40 to 50, 60, 70.
In the end, it will take more than ten years to achieve from 70 to 100.
But Fu Diao's score has already reached 100, the highest level that ordinary people and even those piano students and teachers can achieve.

What he wants to do now is to let his 100 points break through to 101 points, 102 points, and even 110 points.

The highest score on the test paper is only 100 points, and if you want to break through this score, then you may put in ten or twenty times as much effort as ordinary people, and your score may not increase by a tenth of theirs.

This is the marginal effect.

Klaus obviously didn't intend to talk casually with Fu Tiao and let Fu Tiao get a breakthrough in an instant.

He's just planting a nail now.

It may not be useful at first, but after a long time, it may be this nail that helped Fu Diao grow from a first-line pianist to a top-notch pianist.

Perform ecstasy live or recorded on a stage.

Everything takes time, and what Fu Tiao has most now is time.

Klaus helped Fu Tiao slowly sort out the two works they performed today.

The two works together only lasted 15 minutes, but Fu Tiao and Klaus played slowly for a full 120 minutes.

From the surface of the work, to the inner layer, to the composer's thinking about the work.

Klaus directly chopped up this piece of work, dissected everything from the inside to the outside, and placed it in front of Fu Tiao.

Just like at the beginning, it is not simply to tell Fu Tiao why he plays in this way, but to keep asking, to make Fu Tiao think about why this kind of performance is better, and that kind of performance is worse.

This is the teaching method of the German-Austrian School, which is more based on the essence of music, rather than playing those weird and weird contents.

And time passed slowly in such a simple question-and-answer dialogue. Fu Tiao looked at the work in front of him and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He looked at Klaus who was smiling beside him, and nodded with a smile, thanking him. .

"Thank you very much, Professor Claus, I have benefited a lot from this class."

"This is your own strength, Dior, don't underestimate yourself, even if your music has less musicianship, the impact on you is actually the difference between 90 points and 100 points, which is not a big difference .”

Klaus waved his hand.

"I hope you can learn more in this class. Many things in music need to be thought about. We are pianists, and we can't play like those ordinary people. Come down, the music is over, there are many things we need to pay attention to, and there are many things we need to think about..."

"Brain thinking is the first condition for us to become a pianist. A pianist who does not use his brain to play the piano will never become the strongest group of performers, even those of the Russian school who focus on basic skills. The same is true for those who think about music as much as we do.”

"Think, think, keep thinking, don't let your head stop, put all your time on the music, think about how you can make the music better, this is you, this is me ,The meaning of existence."

After all, Klaus got up, nodded Fu Tiao's head lightly, walked to the door and opened the door, and smiled at Fu Tiao.

"Dior, I won't arrange any homework for you today. I believe in your self-consciousness. You can choose the work yourself and give it to me. As for the time of the next class, it will be at this time today, the same time, the same time. The only difference is that my way of class will be changed, and I will not ask questions like today in the next class."

"Huh? Why?" Fu Tiao picked up his schoolbag and couldn't help but be taken aback: "Why not? I think this kind of teaching method is very good."

"Because of time, Dio."

Klaus smiled: "Although you are still young, you still have a lot of time, but my time is not necessarily the same, and the time I can give you for teaching is not as much as you think, so we still have to We must hurry up and do everything we can as soon as possible.”

"Well, so how will we proceed in the next class? Mr. Claus, I'm a little curious..."

"Just like a normal class, you show me the work you want to play, and I will give you some room for improvement after listening to it, and help you take a few steps forward. If you have any questions about my direction, you can Ask me, if you don't ask me, I probably won't explain it to you directly."

Klaus shook his head slightly, with a smile in his eyes.

"As for the specifics, you don't have to ask, and you don't have to worry about changes in teaching. I will adjust my teaching direction in order to make you a stronger performer."

"Is that so..."

Fu Tiao nodded thoughtfully, walked to the door, smiled and waved goodbye to Klaus.

"Okay, then I'll leave first, Mr. Claus."

"Okay, I wish you all the best, Dio, have a nice day."

After all, Klaus poked his head out, looked at another girl who had been waiting at the door, nodded, and waved.

"Ying, come in."

"Ok!"

Fu Tiao turned his head, and at this moment he realized that there was a girl standing beside him. The girl glanced at Fu Tiao excitedly, hesitated to speak, and finally just nodded briefly, and entered Klaus with the sheet music in her hand. inside the house.

This girl is Chen Ying, the girl who has been chasing after Fu Tiao's European tour concert before, and also the girlfriend of Wu Hong who accidentally put Fu Tiao's recording on the Internet
Seeing Chen Ying like this, Klaus shook his head helplessly, and flirted with Fu Tiao.

"Dior, I think you'd better keep a low profile, otherwise many people in our piano department will run towards you like chasing stars. I don't want our Berlin University of the Arts to become a place chasing stars."

"Okay, no problem, but Mr. Claus, don't you think that before you say this, you should put my class time in a time when no one is around? Otherwise, I will definitely run into people no matter what time it is." of."

"Hahaha, this is my negligence. I will readjust the time. If there is a change, I will notify you by email. Do you have my email? If not, you can ask someone in the secretariat and give it to me Just send me an email to let me know."

"Yes, I'll send you an email when I get back."

"Okay, see you later, Dio."

Klaus waved at Fu Tiao again, closed the door, and returned to the room to teach the next person.

And Fu Tiao walked outside the house alone.

This is the first class he and Professor Krauss have had.

The feeling of attending class this time is actually completely different for Fu Tiao than it was for He Shen before.

I don't know if it's the difference in levels between the two, or the difference in Fu Tiao's own state.

Fu Tiao thought about it, but he didn't come to any conclusion.

He glanced at the time, then walked directly towards the piano room.

In any case, practicing the piano is the first priority.

Even the top pianists still need to practice.

Even a pianist like Argerich, who can basically become a god, although she is too lazy to practice the piano from time to time, she often says that she can become the top pianist without practicing the piano.

In fact, people often complain about her, saying that she is not what she is said on TV.

Before I went to pick up the plane, I might have agreed on where to go for a stroll after receiving it.

But she can suddenly come over and tell you that she hasn't practiced the piano for a long time, and she wants to practice the piano, and then cancel all the schedules, and stay alone in the room all day thinking about music.

Even the boss wants to practice the piano like that, what right do you have not to practice the piano!
Practicing piano for 40 hours a day, charging towards becoming lingling!

After Fu Tiao left the main building, went to other nearby teaching buildings of the Berlin University of the Arts, and found a piano room to practice piano, he no longer cared about other content.

His current task is very heavy.

Not only the performances at the Ruhr Music Festival, but also the Piano Chamber Quartet at the Salzburg Music Festival, and some works that I need to practice for Krauss to improve my professional level.

In one week, he may need to complete nearly seven piano works.

On average, every day, one song a day.

This is not just about bouncing off, you also need to memorize and deal with it.

Thousands of bars, tens of thousands of notes.

Even if many notes are related, if you want to memorize them completely, the difficulty is basically equivalent to memorizing a novel with about [-] words in a week.

It may even be easier to memorize novels with tens of thousands of words. After all, you only need to memorize them, and there is no need to process the music a second time.

The difficulty can be imagined.

But everything is not a problem for Fu Diao, he came here to improve himself.

No matter how hard it is, no matter how tired it is, it is worth it.

On the side of European conservatories, the degree of hard work and professionalism of the performance department is much higher than that in China.

They won't have a lot of non-professional content, and they will let you spend all your time professionally.

Every day is practice, rehearsal, and performance.

Very tiring, but very fulfilling.

Only here you feel like a professional and not simply a student.

……

……

……

While Fu Diao was concentrating on practicing piano and rehearsing, the Ruhr area released the content of this year's Ruhr area music festival.

Zhang Hao, a student of the Piano Department of the Folkwang University of the Arts.

The Folkwang University of the Arts is an art university as famous as the Berlin University of the Arts.

It is also one of only two art universities in Germany.

Unlike many assets and teaching buildings of the Berlin University of the Arts, which are located in the city center, the teaching buildings of the Folkwang University of the Arts are located throughout the Ruhr area.

From the most central Essen, the main teaching building of the Folkwang Conservatory, to the piano room of the piano department in Duisburg next door, and then to the other side of Dusseldorf, part of the teaching buildings on the Dortmund side.

Even though Düsseldorf and Dortmund have their own conservatories, the Folkwang Academy of Music still has their tentacles deep into it.

This is the strength of the Art University.

Unlike the Berlin University of the Arts, which is curled up in Berlin and reaches out to the neighboring state of Brandenburg at most, their art university can really be called a behemoth.

And the students of the conservatory of music under this behemoth, the resources they get are also the most excellent.

After all, there is no classical music resource like the Ruhr Festival in Berlin.

As a first-year student of Folkwang Piano Department, Zhang Hao sat bored on a chair near the school after his professional class, gnawing bread and swiping his phone.

He has been in Germany for almost five or six years, and he has long been used to this simple white meal.

With a lot of grass, bread, ham and cheese, a simple and nutritious Caucasian meal is completed.

While swiping his phone leisurely, he smiled and nodded to say hello to his classmates and passers-by.

He has lived like a German.

Not long after, a girl with a super figure, even though the weather hadn't warmed up yet, was already wearing an exposed waist and a fishnet, and a girl with long golden hair sat beside Zhang Hao with a slap, her legs raised, her body slightly He moved closer to Zhang Hao, looked at Zhang Hao's cell phone, and said to Zhang Hao in a sweet tone that was completely different from the bold dress and cool appearance.

"Hao, how are you? What are you doing now?"

"Very good, how about you, Nina?"

Zhang Hao looked at the girl beside him with a smile, put his hand around her arm, and put his mobile phone between them.

The girl named Nina is his girlfriend, a third student majoring in jazz at the Folkwang Academy of Music.

Learned to play the drums.

When she was unable to perform due to physical problems with the keyboard in her band, Zhang Hao just learned a little bit, so he came over to help.

As a result, the two fell in love with each other so eye-to-eye. After a series of Tie Hanhan's two-way running that led to excessive running, the two went through untold hardships, and finally succeeded in being together.

Zhang Hao felt that being able to find Nina was the happiest thing in his life.

"Nina, do you have no class today? You came out so early today?"

"No, I was thinking about you, so I'll come out to see you first." Nina asked with a sweet smile while looking at Zhang Hao's phone.

"Hao, what are you looking for? Is it a show? Have you had a concert recently?"

"Well, the performance, but it's not my concert, but I'm thinking about where we will go to the concert this weekend. I feel that we have heard many of the people who came recently, and it's a bit boring..."

Zhang Hao spread his hands with a helpless expression.

"You know, I'm very strict with things like concerts, I don't want our sweet night to be ruined by a broken concert, if that's the case, I might as well play it for you at home. "

"Haha, Hao~"

After the two flirted, Nina suddenly spoke.

"Hao, I remember the Ruhr Piano Festival is about to open, right? Have you booked tickets?"

"Not yet, I've forgotten about it, I'll take a look."

Zhang Hao smiled and took Nina's arms away from her waist. After quickly entering the information of the Ruhr Piano Festival on the mobile phone, the information of the 2016 Ruhr Piano Festival popped up instantly.

This is a red and white website, just like the flag of Poland, Indonesia or Monaco.

Half red, half white.

And on the front page is the news about the 2016 Ruhr Piano Festival.

Zhang Hao put his hand on Nina's waist again, rubbed it lightly, and said cheerfully.

"There are quite a lot of people coming this time. Although the tickets are not open for sale yet, basically all the people who are going to perform at the music festival have been released. Let me see..."

"The older performers who played this time include Zimmerman, Argerich, Barenboim, Hamelin, Kissing, Sokolov, Sir Schiff... Well, this year's performance is really good. That’s great, it seems that all these top bosses are here this year! I don’t know if we can get tickets by then.”

Nina put her arms around Zhang Hao with a smile and said, "There shouldn't be a problem. Apart from Argerich and Barenboim, other people's tickets are not too difficult to get. Haven't we also snatched tickets before?"

"Oh yes, I forgot."

Zhang Hao happily scratched his head, then continued to look down.

"Let me see who is the new performer this year..."

"Well, South Korea's Jo Sung-jin is coming? He won so many runner-ups and was invited to this music festival? Interesting..."

"Oh, this Richard Hamelin seems to be coming too. This is interesting. I remember that after Richard Hamelin lost to Zhao Chengzhen and Fu Tiao last time, he went to participate in other competitions, and finally To be a world champion."

"Huh? Wait? Mitsuko Uchida??"

"Huh? Lang Liangyue? Lang Liangyue is coming too??"

"..."

He gradually became confused when he saw the name on it.

Numerous new pianists appeared in this place, and everyone's achievements were enough to be called the top group.

Then among the top names, he saw a name he was looking forward to still.

"as well as……"

"Fu Tiao?"
