The world's number one pianist

Chapter 100: Music disassembled to the extreme

The entire concert hall was already packed, with people sitting in all seats, waiting for Danyi's lecture.

There were even some people standing on the edge of the aisle, just standing there listening.

Not only people from Jiangzhou Art College, but also many people from other universities in Jiangzhou came to join in the fun.

After all, Jiangzhou University of Arts and Jiangzhou Normal University have music majors. Some other schools also have music majors, but they are not in the mainstream direction.

Many people came all the way here just to listen to Professor Danyi's class. It was completely obvious that Professor Danyi was very popular among everyone.

But Yi just sat there, and no one in the entire concert hall dared to speak. They quickly turned on the recording equipment in their hands, and then took out a notebook, preparing to record something.

He Shen looked at Dan Yi on the stage and saw that his hair was gray. Although he looked smiling, the smile was a little tired.

Obviously, it was because of Li Diyun's incident that a group of reporters kept harassing him.

After all, Li Diyun hasn't had a class with him for a long time and has already been considered as a teacher. Although he will pay attention to his recent situation, he will not focus all his energy on it.

And Dan Yi, in the first sentence he spoke, complained to everyone.

"Okay, don't be so serious, make it look like a trial. We won't talk about other things today. We will only talk about music today, just music."

After everyone heard Dan Yi's words, they couldn't help but laugh. They instantly understood what Dan Yi meant.

Just don’t talk about things in the entertainment industry. The classical music industry is just a classical music industry.

Professor Danyi chatted casually with everyone, and from time to time he would ask people to chat about their thoughts on music.

Just when He Shen and the others were gradually relaxing, Professor Danyi suddenly spoke.

"...However, our research on Chopin or other composers is often a bit too superficial, superficial, or too focused on form."

"Take Chopin's Ballade No. 1 that we have seen before as an example. Everyone has heard of this work. If you haven't heard of it... then you haven't heard of it. First of all, we can see the first paragraph at the beginning. What is this in one sentence? Many people will say that the first sentence is the Neapolitan sixth chord, ascending, and then I will tell you something about the Neapolitan sixth chord and tell you what it means and what it requires. The look and feel.”

"But, what we know is Chopin? What we know is the Neapolitan Six Chords. You need to continue to deepen your thoughts and think about the inner things of this work. It is still Chopin's first piano narrative. What does the first Neapolitan sixth chord start with? It starts with C, and it doesn’t have a complete direction, which means you don’t know what Chopin wants to play.”

"However, what key is this piece of work in? It is in the key of G. At this time, we began to wonder, why can't a clear key be heard at the beginning of a piece in the key of G? Oh yes! Neapolitan Sixth Chord , this is our idea of ​​explaining the Neapolitan sixth chord, rather than simply saying to the students that this place is just a Neapolitan sixth chord."

"Only when we get to this place can we continue to read the content behind and continue to think about what is contained in this work..."

"For example, the overall direction of this piece of work..."

But Yi was speaking on the podium with a smile. He did not tell the story behind this piece of music, or what Chopin thought of when he wrote this piece of music.

He is very simple. He dissects this piece of work, puts it in front of all of you, and tells you why you need to think like this.

Chopin wrote everything on the piano score. You need to look very carefully at every stroke of Chopin's writing. Two identical notes may be completely different!

For example, if you just look at the duration of each note, they are basically the same.

But if you look at the feeling of this sound, it is completely different.

For example, forty-six is ​​four sixteenth notes, which needs to be smooth and even.

But if you follow the sixteenth note first and eighth and last sixteenth, all you need is a tendency, and you need to make the music as a whole tend toward the second note.

This subtle gap appears in many works.

These are some relatively crude knowledge, basically everyone here can understand it, it is very simple.

Even people who don’t have much in-depth study of Chopard can easily follow Danyi’s logic.

But soon, the content of the lecture became more and more profound.

"... Regarding the performance methods of Chopin's various works, what we need to think about is whether we can perfectly interpret the feeling of Chopin if we use this method to perform the works."

"Take Chopin's Nocturne Op. 32 No. 1 as an example. We all know that this work is a reproduction of the second part. If analyzed, it should be..."

"A[a3(K46D7)+b4(DT)+c5(D-DD7)+a4(K46D7)+b3(DT)]+B[d5(Dt)+e11(D-DD)]+B'[d5 (Dt)+e14 (D-DD7)]”

"In the A section, we can see the progression of this place. Take the progression from K46 to D7 as an example. We should pay attention to the performance of this place..."

Looking at the work that was constantly decomposed and split to the extreme in Dan Yi's mouth, just short of being split into a small note, many people were confused.

Who am I? Where am I? What is he talking about?

Isn't this Professor Dan Yi a big shot in performance teaching? Why does he keep saying all kinds of mathematical symbols?

What the hell?

However, this is limited to ordinary passers-by. People in the university such as He Shen and Qu Shi are very interested in these things.

Especially Qu Shi, her eyes were burning, and she wanted to stand up and throw herself at Dan Yi's feet.

Her main direction of progress is also the theoretical direction. Through theoretical decomposition of music, personal emotions are thrown out as much as possible. This method of interpretation is simply in her heart.

He Shen didn't feel anything. Although the direction is different, what Professor Dan Yi said is very easy to understand, and he also found it interesting.

However... just when the time had passed for an hour and a half and the concert was about to end, Dan Yi suddenly spoke.

"Having said so much, why don't I recommend you some recordings that I think are particularly excellent recently."

"You can look for recordings from the previous rounds of the Golden Melody Awards, and listen to a contestant named He Shen. His Chopin Ballade is simply perfect."
