Chapter 250 The Birth of a God-level Scene

"How to play trance-level live?"

Akadi looked at Fu Tiao without much doubt or surprise, just nodded slightly, glanced at the time, and said to Fu Tiao with a smile.

"Don't worry, there will be a sharing session later, although I may not be able to tell you how to play a superb scene, but at the very least, I can tell you what I thought in my heart when I played this work. "

Akadi patted Fu Tiao on the shoulder, signaling him to step off the stage first and wait in the audience.

The audience and staff outside the house dispersed a lot, but everyone was discussing this evening's performance excitedly.

The sudden god-level scene broke everyone's nerves and made them extremely excited, and they could even take it out and have a few words with people who know how to do it.

As for those who don't know how to do it, if you can tell him some familiar names and tell him about the works you heard tonight, it doesn't make much sense.

The staff under the stage heard the news quickly and hurriedly drove out the passers-by and the audience. For a while, only Fu Tiao and others were left in the room.

Fu Tiao looked around and found that the people around him could be regarded as shining stars.

He saw Lang Liangyue who had met him before, as well as Argerich, Barenboim and others.

Argerich also saw Fu Tiao, the frost on his face disintegrated slightly, he waved his hand at Fu Tiao with a smile, and said.

"Dio, come here."

"Ms. Marta!"

Fu Tiao walked up to Argerich, nodded and bowed slightly to her, and said softly, "Long time no see, Ms. Marta."

"It hasn't been long. The last time the two of us met was probably at this time last year."

Argerich raised his head, counted the time, and said with a smile: "I still remember how dazed and incomprehensible you were at this time last year, with a lot of fear of the unknown about the future, and feeling a little suspended when walking, but now You are completely different."

She took two steps forward, gently squeezed Fu Tiao's shoulder, and then stroked Fu Tiao's face with a smile on her face.

"You have now become one of the top pianists in the world. If I were a few decades younger, I might come to pursue you..."

"Ms. Marta..." Fu Tiao looked helpless.

Seeing Fu Tiao's helplessness, Argerich was very happy. He stretched out his hand to take Fu Tiao's hand, patted it lightly, and said with a smile.

"However, when I heard about your Chopin International Piano Competition finals, I guessed that there would be such a day, that you would be valued by major music festivals in the world, but I didn't expect to arrive so soon, Dior, my friend Gave me the video of your tour in Europe, you played very well! I think you will definitely be the top player in the world one day, just like us.”

"Thank you, Ms. Marta." Fu Tiao also laughed: "But I think I'm not perfect enough, and when I can play a god-level live performance, I will probably be the best in the true sense. A top pianist."

"God-level scene? God-level scene can only be said to be rare, hahahaha..."

Standing aside, Barenboim walked up to Fu Tiao with a thick cigar in his mouth, looked Fu Tiao up and down, laughed, and stretched out his hand to Fu Tiao.

"I've heard many people say your name, Dior Fu, my name is Daniel Barenboim, you can call me Daniel, don't be so formal."

"Okay, Mr. Daniel."

Fu Tiao turned his head and nodded to Barenboim.

Barenboim bit the cigar in his mouth and kept changing positions, seeming a little anxious.

But this is also normal.

Smoking is not allowed in the concert hall. Even if Barenboim is a top pianist, it is not good for everyone to break this example for him.

So as an old smoker, Barenboim can only hold back.

He glanced at the staff who were getting ready on the stage, couldn't help but sneered twice, and complained.

"Speaking of which, Akadi hasn't played yet. I've been waiting for him for two or three hours, and I can't hold it anymore."

"Daniel! You'd better smoke a little less!"

Lang Liangyue's voice came from behind Fu Tiao. Fu Tiao turned his head and found that Lang Liangyue and his little assistant Gina were walking towards them step by step.

Seeing Fu Tiao looking back, Lang Liangyue smiled and nodded at Fu Tiao, then looked at Barenboim and said helplessly.

"Old Daniel, you should know your body. If you continue to smoke and drink like this, your body will definitely collapse one day in advance. What did you say to me before, that you want to play all Beethoven's sonatas again, Do you really have this ability?"

"Liangyue! Are you looking down on me? I'm still your teacher anyway, so don't underestimate me!"

After Daniel heard Lang Liangyue's words, he immediately blew his beard and stared, "How can I not be able to do what you can do? Just to say, this year, oh no, next year, oh no, the year after... Forget it, anyway, in five years, I will hold a tour concert of all Beethoven's sonatas, and I will slap you in the face! You boy, you dare to question me."

"How dare I question you, I just remind you to pay attention to your own body, stop smoking and drinking every day..."

Lang Liangyue was speechless, and said to Barenboim; "Also, it's okay for you to smoke and drink, but don't spit it in my face from now on. I don't smoke. I've tolerated you for a long time. .”

"You boy, your wings are hard, and you feel that you are awesome, so you started to hate your teacher, right? Believe it or not, I will announce to everyone that I have nothing to do with you anymore? Hey, I still don't believe it, you kid can still control me?"

Seeing Daniel like this, before Lang Liangyue said anything, Argerich rolled his eyes first, and kicked Barenboim's leg directly, annoyed.

"He's right, Daniel, you really should quit smoking. It's lonely enough to be alone on stage. I don't want anyone to be able to cooperate with me on stage again."

"Marta, are you talking about me? Do you also smoke? Although the women's cigarettes you smoke are not comparable to my cigars, what's the difference between you and me? Don't think that you can do whatever you want just because you are my junior sister! "

"what are you saying?"

Argerich and Barenboim almost got into a fight while talking.

Although the two are not married at all, and nothing like that has happened, the relationship between the two is closer than that of a husband and wife. Argerich always likes to hold Barenbo in order to avoid being too lonely on stage. Im on stage together.

Barenboim is also happy to play with his junior sister.

Therefore, you can often see two people entering various places in pairs, but there is no affection between them, and some only have the kind of care between relatives.

As for whether anything happened between the two of them, that's not what Fu Tiao, Lang Liangyue and others need to care about.

Seeing that the two seemed to be arguing, Lang Liangyue took Fu Tiao outside, away from the two, shook his head, and sighed.

"Don't pay attention to those two people, they often do this, and they are pretty good."

"It's okay, I don't care, but..." Fu Tiao looked at everyone in the room and asked curiously.

"Speaking of which, why are there so many people in the room? And there are so many exceptional pianists, such as you, on the scene? Shouldn't you all have successfully played those god-level live or recorded ones? Why? Will it still be like this?"

"Because... we are not satisfied with the status quo."

Lang Liangyue smiled at Fu Tiao, looked at Argerich and Barenboim who were arguing quietly behind him, looked at Kissin who was communicating with friends in the distance, and looked at the incomparable gentleman in the distance, like a fairy Zimmerman, who is usually alone and independent of the world, said casually.

"Whether it's me, Argerich, or Zimmerman, none of us will be satisfied with the status quo, because the god-level live we can play is not playing as we want, but Depending on luck and strength, the weaker the person, the less likely they will be able to play a god-level live performance. We cannot improve our luck. We can only rely on the experience of others to make our performances even better. Get close to the god-level scene."

"Only in this way can we fit our guesses about the god-level scene in our performances again and again, so that we can be more integrated with the music and have a greater chance of performing a god-level scene."

Lang Liangyue looked at Fu Tiao, and asked helplessly, "You don't think that we play this kind of god-level live, basically do whatever we want, and play whatever we want, right?"

"No..." Fu Tiao shook his head, "I'm just curious."

"There is nothing to be curious about. Everyone present is like this. They learn from each other's experience to make their playing smoother, that's all."

Lang Liangyue shook his head and looked at the stage.

This time, there was no reminder to the audience as before, all the lights were dimmed, and the stage lights were turned on to the brightest.

The staff simply turned up the stage lights and did not make any adjustments, and Arkady also walked out from the backstage of the concert hall under such lights.

Whoa!
applause.

Even though there were not many people in the room, everyone still gave Arkady enough applause.

Under the applause, Arkady bowed slightly to the crowd, and said with a smile.

"Thank you for your support, pianists and artist friends. I am very glad to be able to discuss with you about music and art in this place. Now it is very late and time is limited, so let's make a long story short and start our content today. .”

The applause sounded again, and all the sounds in the concert hall disappeared. Argerich and Barenboim stopped arguing, but looked at Arkady on the stage with extremely serious expressions.

Under such circumstances, Arkady said slowly: "First of all, I want to briefly discuss what exactly is Brahms. For me, what exactly is my thinking about Brahms."

Lang Liangyue poked Fu Tiao lightly, and added to Fu Tiao: "The meaning of this place is that if it is different from what you think of Brahms, the following content will be selectively absorbed."

"Ah."

Fu Tiao nodded and continued to listen to Arkady.

Arkady continued to the crowd.

"All of us clearly know that Brahms, as a classicist in the Romantic period, has been recognized by everyone as a strong successor to Beethoven, or the last classical music As an artist, I firmly abide by some standards of the Viennese Classical School, so for me, rather than interpreting Brahms in a more romantic way, I am actually more inclined to use the Classical School to interpret and express. "

"Take my first work as an example. When I pay attention to this work, I pay more attention to the bass curve of the work, the expression of the work on chords, and the emotion in the music. The lingering, these things everyone knows, but at the same time, I am still thinking, why these Brahms are more inclined to use classical chords to interpret the expression of romantic chords?"

"There is a very obvious difference in the feeling, from the self-transmission expression to the behavior transmission mechanism. Compared with Beethoven's bright and bright, he has pushed his music to a deeper level, showing the traditional Greek vigor and tradition. , his chords will be thicker, and his works will be more determined and confident, with more galloping boldness, and the counterpoint skills interspersed in his music, making the music more majestic and magnificent."

"at the same time……"

Arkady quickly explained to everyone how he felt about Brahms in his heart, and told everyone how he understood and interpreted Brahms.

Just like what Lawrence said to Fu Tiao when he was studying with Lawrence before.

Compared with other pianists, Brahms' most distinctive feature lies in his use of musical chords.

He is not like those ordinary pianists who use chords more as a simple accompaniment. Brahms is very serious about expressing chords as a whole of music and the interpretation of music style and color.

Although Brahms is not particularly difficult to understand and express like Chopin, he has a special way of expressing music.

But Brahms is not something that can be played casually. He also has his own unique color in it, and it also requires a little bit of special skills.

It's just that this technique is much simpler than Chopin's mysterious Chopin feeling.

After all, his characteristic is this traditional chord expression.

Faced with Akadi's explanation of Brahms, the people off the stage did not feel impatient, they just listened very carefully, feeling his thinking about music.

This is the core of his construction of this year's god-level scene, his foundation.

Only by understanding his thoughts and then thinking about his interpretation of the god-level scene can he most effectively help himself control the god-level scene.

If there is no way to understand his thoughts, then obviously, it is also difficult for him to understand the construction of the god-level scene.

As for those whose thoughts are relative, there is no way.

The idea is completely different. You can't say that they don't do what Akadi does, right?This is too strange.

Therefore, when listening to Akadi's description, many people gave up the idea of ​​continuing to study and study, and turned to simple listening.

And some people are more serious.

For example Fu Diao.

He didn't actually have a particularly complete thinking about Brahms. He just knew that Brahms should pay attention to the control of chords, but he didn't think that the simple five words of chord control have such deep meanings.

He listened carefully to Arkady's explanation, and reflected, analyzed, and added to his explanation and Brahms in his heart.

Brahms, who was originally slightly flat, gradually felt a little bit three-dimensional.

Lang Liangyue was different from Fu Tiao, he only came to listen to the god-level live sharing, and he accepted other people's playing methods as long as he could accept it.

So he just listened to it, and he knew that Arkadi's Brahms direction was different from his, and absorbing his was not beneficial, so he didn't listen much at all.

only……

Lang Liangyue looked at Fu Diao, who was listening attentively, with great interest.

He always felt that Fu Tiao seemed to have changed.

Akadi doesn't care what the people off the stage think, he just makes a simple sharing, as to whether it is useful or not, that is beyond his control.

After briefly describing his understanding of Brahms, he thought for a while before addressing the crowd.

"As for the god-level scene..."

At this moment, no matter whether they cared about it or not, people who were in the same direction as him or in the opposite direction all gathered their attention, fixedly staring at Arkady in front of him, waiting for his explanation.

Under everyone's gaze, Arkady spoke slowly.

"I'm actually not clear about the appearance of the god-level scene. I just follow my own habits, bathe and change clothes, and understand and control the stage as much as possible before the performance starts, so that I can better control the stage. I don’t really care much about the performance.”

"This is my habit. Before every game, I have to study the venue non-stop, and then before today's performance, I suddenly felt that feeling, that is, the feeling that I am integrated with this venue. I can I can easily control the flow of the music in my hands, and I can even feel the sound effect of my music in every corner of this venue."

"Under this kind of control, I merged this field with Brahms. Under the field that has gradually lost control over time, I finally presented what you can hear today..."

"God-level scene."
