The world's number one pianist

Chapter 28 Golden Melody Award

Hearing that He Shen agreed to his request, Zhou San was refreshed and his heart slowly calmed down. Reading

He was still afraid that He Shen was the kind of classical pianist who would never want to participate in the competition.

"Okay, since you agree to participate in the Golden Piano Award, I will send you the website address now, and I will take care of the registration. You just need to prepare for the competition."

After that, he waved to He Shen and left first.

The most important thing for him now is to prepare for the back-up and see if he can find an opportunity to squeeze He Shen into his team.

If he can squeeze another He Shen into his team, then he will...

The dream is too beautiful, Zhou San dare not think too deeply.

Not long after Zhou San left, Wang Pei poked his head out of the door, looked at He Shen, and immediately smiled and waved.

"How is it? Is it settled?"

"Yeah, it's still settled."

"What do you mean by "still settled"? If it's settled, it's settled. If it's not settled, it's not settled. How can it be settled?"

Wang Pei pulled a chair over and turned it around. He sat on the chair with a click. He leaned on the back of the chair with his arms and asked He Shen curiously.

"Could it be that he also negotiated some conditions?"

"Yeah, he needs me to participate in the Golden Piano Awards. If I can win the championship, there will be room for maneuver."

"Hiss, so..."

Wang Pei clicked his tongue twice, and did not comment on whether Zhou San's operation was reasonable. He asked with interest.

"And you, are you going to participate in this Golden Piano Awards?"

"Yeah."

He Shen nodded, and his cell phone suddenly rang. He Shen opened it and a strange number sent a string of URLs. At the end of the URL, there was a note of Zhou San.

"You gave him my phone number?"

"Ah?" Wang Pei was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that He Shen was talking about Zhou San, and immediately explained: "Your number was previously placed in the column of musicians' contact information. He probably saw that, what's wrong?"

"Nothing..."

He Shen shook his head and opened the link. A score made of golden treble clef appeared at the top of the webpage, with three big words "Golden Piano Award" written on it.

Scrolling down, there are some general information about the Golden Piano Award.

This Golden Piano Award is a music event jointly held by seven states. It was established by Zhongzhou and is the only permanent comprehensive music award in China.

It is held once a year, and the types of instruments are different every year.

The first year was the National Singing and Bel Canto Singing Award for Vocal Music, the second year was the Piano and Violin Award, the third year was the National Instrument Award, and the fourth year was the Western Instrument Award.

It is held every four years, and it is held in different states every year.

This year, it happened to be the turn of the Piano and Violin Award, and the venue of this year's event is very close to He Shen.

This year's Golden Piano and Violin Awards were held in Jiangzhou, jointly organized by the Jiangzhou Normal University School of Music and the Jiangzhou Art Institute School of Music.

He Shen looked at the registration date above and found that it had closed a few days ago, which is why Zhou San told him that he would help him with the registration.

So what repertoire do I need to play in this competition?

He Shen quickly glanced at the process of the competition. The process of this competition was not long and was divided into only four stages.

Preliminary, semi-final, semi-final, final.

The preliminary selection selected 48 people to enter the semi-final, the semi-final selected 18 people to enter the semi-final, and finally 8 people to enter the final.

The repertoire requirements for the preliminary selection are a technical etude, any movement of any sonata, and a self-selected piece, with a total duration of less than 15 minutes.

The requirements for the semi-final are much simpler, 15-20 minutes, any local Chinese work, and an additional work.

The semi-finals are simpler, lasting 50-0 minutes, and you can choose all the movements of any sonata, and then you can choose all the others.

The requirements for the finals are more complicated, and you have to choose one from several concertos.

He Shen did not look at the concerto in the finals, which was too far away for him.

Although he had practiced concertos before, it was better to practice with an orchestra. It was too rigid to practice alone with a recording.

However, if you ask the orchestra to accompany you to practice, the practice fee for one time is almost several thousand to tens of thousands of yuan, which is equivalent to asking dozens of people to practice overtime with you, so the price is naturally very high.

For people like He Shen who have no experience in playing concertos, the finals are just the beginning of the competition.

He Shen put away his mobile phone and put it in his pocket.

Wang Pei asked with a smile: "How is it? Have you finished watching it?"

"Yeah." He Shen nodded

"It's still the same old routine, that is, etudes, sonatas, concertos, these three sets, and then match them with some other music or something, you should be fine, right?"

After saying that, before He Shen answered, he muttered to himself.

"That's right, except for the concerto you have never played with an orchestra, how can those solo performances be difficult for you? After all, you are the strongest in the piano department of Hengduan Wuzhou Conservatory of Music in our class, and even in the three classes before and after!"

Listening to Wang Pei's flattery, He Shen smiled and ignored him. He just patted his shoulder when he walked past him, then stretched out his hand to push open the door of the recording studio and walked out.

Zhao Zitong was sitting alone on the sofa at the front desk, holding her phone and looking at something, fascinated. When He Shen came to her side, she woke up and quickly put the phone in her arms, grinning.

"Hey, He Shen, what are you looking at? Don't you know that it is very impolite to peek at a girl's phone?"

"Oh."

He Shen responded casually, ignoring her provocation, and continued.

"Let's go, it's almost time, let's go back and continue practicing the piano, you haven't finished your task today."

"Ah? Do you still have to practice the piano today? Isn't it over to watch you play the piano today? Why do you still have to practice the piano..."

He Shen suddenly heard her unconsciously call him teacher, and his footsteps paused slightly, but soon, he continued to walk forward normally, explaining as he walked.

"Practice piano, you need to practice every day. Even for me, if I don't practice for one day, I know it, if I don't practice for two days, my relatives and friends know it, if I don't practice for three days, the audience knows it."

"Huh? He Shen, you are so good at playing the piano, but you still have to practice piano all the time? Also, you practice piano with me for so long every day, where do you have time to practice piano yourself? Do you lie on the piano all day long?"

He Shen did not answer, but walked forward. Zhao Zitong found that He Shen was walking farther and farther away, and couldn't help but stomped his feet hard, hummed twice, and hurried to catch up, and continued to chatter in He Shen's ear.

He Shen glanced at Zhao Zitong with the corner of his eyes, and didn't say much, letting her question and complain at will.

After all, in a sense, he is indeed lying on the piano all day long.
