The world's number one pianist

Chapter 289 Master Class!

At this moment, all the actors who should be here have arrived on the stage in Jiangzhou.

And Zhou San is the most important actor among them!

Zhou San stood in the concert hall of Jiangzhou Conservatory of Music, looking at the orderly rows of seats in the distance, his eyes filled with satisfaction.

This place he spent most of his life building.

Now, it can finally be put to use!

Therefore, Zhou San looked at the concert hall in front of him with growing satisfaction.

He stood on the second floor, rubbing his fingers on the railing in front of him, feeling the warmth from his palms, and couldn't help but smile.

"I'm really looking forward to it, tonight..."

"Are you looking forward to it?"

Zhao Shenggang walked out from one side. He looked at the stage where there was only a grand piano, and then glanced at Zhou San beside him.

Zhou San asked directly without even looking at him. "Of course I look forward to it. This is the key to Jiangzhou's rise. Don't you look forward to it?"

Zhao Shenggang shook his head: "I have no expectations. I haven't made a breakthrough in Chopin's First Piano Ballade for so long. Is it possible that someone who is not as old as me can lead me to a breakthrough?"

"Who knows?" Zhou San also smiled, patted Zhao Shenggang's shoulder, turned and left without saying a word.

Zhao Shenggang was also standing on the second floor of the concert hall, looking at the stage downstairs with a silent expression. No one knew what he was thinking.

Zhou San ignored Zhao Shenggang in the concert hall.

He walked slowly towards He Shen's piano room. Before he reached the vicinity, he could hear Beethoven's gasping voice coming through the crack in the door.

Beethoven's Passionate Sonata, Piano Sonata No. 23.

He Shen played very beautifully.

It was many times more beautiful than the works Zhou San performed at He Shen's solo concert that he heard when He Shen just returned to China.

So beautiful that Zhou San couldn't help but be shocked.

Why can such a young man, who has only learned piano for so many years, be able to interpret music so beautifully?

As for myself, after studying piano for so long, where have I learned it?

Could it be possible that he learned it from the dog's belly?

Zhou San thought for a while, couldn't help but smile, and shook his head helplessly.

Everyone in Jiangzhou knew about He Shen's strength. No, the whole country of China, and even the whole world, knew about He Shen's strength.

Everyone knows one thing, that is, He Shen has become stronger after four years of hard work.

Today is the best opportunity for He Shen to represent Jiangzhou Conservatory of Music, interpret music to everyone and show his strength.

Zhou San stood at He Shen's door. After taking a few deep breaths, he knocked on the door.

Dong Dong...

The music inside paused slightly, and Beethoven's enthusiastic atmosphere slowly dissipated.

Click...

He Shen walked to the door, looked at Zhou San who was standing at the door, and nodded slightly.

"here we go?"

"Come on, everyone from other places has already arrived. They will enter in a moment, and then it will be your turn with Zhao Shenggang!"

"Um……"

He Shen glanced at the music score in the room, thought for a moment, walked out of the room without picking it up, and said to Zhou San.

"Let's go."

"Wait, are you going like this?" Zhou San looked at He Shen's clothes and hesitated: "Wearing short sleeves?"

The clothes He Shen wore were very casual, and he didn't look like he was attending a master class at all.

Even like an ordinary student in Jiangzhou Conservatory of Music.

Especially He Shen doesn’t look old!

Therefore, if He Shen wore such clothes, he would definitely be regarded as an ordinary student by everyone.

When He Shen heard Zhou San's reminder, he was stunned for a moment and glanced at his clothes. Only then did he recover and nodded slightly.

"Wait a minute, I'll change it"

He Shen turned around and returned to the piano room, took out the black suit hanging behind the door, put it on himself, and nodded to Zhou San.

"Okay, let's go."

"Um……"

Zhou San glanced at He Shen, hesitated for a moment, and didn't say much. He just shook his head slightly and walked towards the concert hall with He Shen.

Soon, the two arrived at the door of the concert hall.

At the main entrance, there were already many students from Jiangzhou Conservatory of Music, standing there to greet them.

Other teachers and students from all places are welcome.

Although it looks chaotic on the outside, music conservatories everywhere stand with their camp.

The southern camp is led by Haicheng, the northern camp is led by Hua Guo, and the middle camp is led by Wuzhou.

All conservatories wear uniforms with the logo of their school.

Viewed from above, everything looks extremely neat and distinct!

Every place in the entire Jiangzhou Conservatory of Music was full of people.

Everyone stood honestly at the door of the concert hall, waiting for the concert to start.

He Shen stood in the distance, looking at the dense crowd of people, his expression unchanged.

"What's wrong? Are you scared or nervous?" Zhou San stood next to He Shen and asked with a smile;

He also knew that He Shen could not be afraid or nervous.

He Shen had seen scenes that were several times more difficult than this one. How could he be afraid and nervous in such a small scene?

Therefore, he just said it casually and did not appreciate it.

And He Shen just shook his head slowly.

"No, I just thought of the past. I thought of that time before, and it seemed like the same thing..."

"At that time?" Zhou San was puzzled.

"When I was at the Music School of Jiangzhou Normal University, I seemed to be standing in the background. People from all the local music schools in China came over to take master classes with Professor Danyi."

"At that time..."

He Shen said that this place was slightly silent again. After thinking for a while, he suddenly said.

"It didn't seem like it was like this at that time, and everyone hadn't been completely divided into three camps."

"At that time, there seemed to be two camps, the southern faction at Haicheng Conservatory of Music, and the northern faction at Huaguo Conservatory of Music."

"I really didn't expect Yue Li and others to be the centrists established by Wuzhou Conservatory of Music."

Zhou San couldn't help but nod the same way when he heard this place. He looked at Yue Li, who was standing in the middle of the crowd, scratching his head with his big muscular arms, and smiled the same way.

"It is said that no one at Wuzhou Conservatory of Music thought that Yue Li could actually achieve this."

"We just hope that Yue Li can lead the people in Wuzhou Music School to cheer up a little bit and not be completely crushed by Haicheng and Huaguo Conservatory of Music."

"But who would have thought that Yue Li would win the championship at the Liszt International Piano Competition."

"And those two people only won the runner-up and third place!"

"There seems to be someone who didn't get any quota? I can't remember which one it is."

"Therefore, after these things were completely put in front of everyone, the micro-development of Wuzhou Conservatory of Music increased several times in an instant!"

"Naturally, they became centrist leaders!"

"Just like you, He Shen..."

Zhou San glanced at He Shen beside him, touched his bald head, and said casually.

"After all, the people at Wuzhou Conservatory of Music are originally from an established conservatory!"

"It's actually normal for them to be promoted!"

"And we are a new music school without any foundation!"

Speaking of this place, Zhou San glanced at his watch.

The time on the clock is less than ten minutes before the master class starts.

Zhou San immediately patted He Shen on the shoulder, pointed to the backstage, and said slowly.

"Let's go, He Shen, the time is almost up, get ready to go on stage."

"Um……"

He Shen bypassed the people standing at the door and came to the back of the stage from the entrance to the backstage.

At this moment, apart from some ordinary staff, there was only one person behind the stage.

Zhao Shenggang!

Zhao Shenggang was standing there, looking at the stage in front of him through the gap in the backstage door.

Not a word was spoken.

Suddenly, he heard footsteps behind him and said casually without looking back.

"Coming?"

"Um."

He Shen walked to Zhao Shenggang's side and looked at the stage as well.

On the extremely clean stage, there are two pure black grand pianos.

Steinway D274!

Top of the line grand piano!

The school spent a huge sum of money to buy two grand pianos and placed them in the center of the stage.

Specially designed for double piano performances and master classes.

There are cameras arranged around the piano for live broadcast.

Zhao Shenggang looked at the piano in front of him and asked slowly.

"Your master class, what are you going to do later?"

"It's just like a normal master class, nothing else changes."

He Shen said while looking at the stage in front of him.

"You go on stage first, start your performance, and then I start to explain Chopin's Piano Ballade No. 1 to you, that's it."

"Is that all?"

Zhao Shenggang glanced at He Shen but said nothing.

He turned around and continued to look at the stage in front of him, waiting for the final time to arrive.

Time passes minute by minute.

Finally, the prescribed time came.

Click!

Time's up!

All the doors of the concert hall were fully opened.

People from various local conservatories came to their positions following the guidance of the staff at Jiangzhou Conservatory of Music.

The originally empty seats were instantly occupied by people from various conservatories.

The originally extremely quiet concert hall became slightly chaotic at this moment.

But soon, after everyone had entered their seats, the sounds in the concert hall slowly disappeared.

Everyone is waiting for the concert to start!

Major music academies are systematically distributed in every corner of the concert hall.

Gino

Students from music schools and music departments in various universities are responsible for filling the gaps.

Everything seemed so orderly.

Zhao Shenggang looked at the increasingly quiet stage in front of him, took two steps back, and nodded slightly to He Shen standing aside.

"Then I go first?"

"good."

He Shen also took two steps back and made room for the door behind the stage.

Zhao Shenggang stood there and straightened his clothes a little, then gave the staff a look.

The staff immediately understood and opened the door of the concert hall.

Click...

Under everyone's gaze, the backstage door of the concert hall opened.

Zhao Shenggang walked out from behind the stage with extremely firm steps.

Lights down!

He stood in the center of the stage, looking at everyone around him with an extremely serious expression.

The people around looked at Zhao Shenggang, not quite understanding what he meant, just looking at him inexplicably.

I don't know why he hasn't started playing yet.

At the moment when the sound in the concert hall disappeared without a trace, Zhao Shenggang moved.

Zhao Shenggang bowed slightly to everyone, turned around and walked to the piano and sat down.

He quickly adjusted the front and back, height, and when everyone was not ready, he raised his hand, and then slowly pressed it down.

Buzz...

An extremely displaced and sad emotion surged from the piano.

At this moment, the eyes of countless people around immediately lit up slightly!

Chopin, the first piano ballad!

The purest Chopin first piano ballad.

Just as He Shen said in the first class.

As we all know, the beginning of Chopin's first piano ballad is the Naples sixth chord.

The Naples sixth chord is a chord obtained by lowering the bass semitone of the upper main chord.

The overall chord style is extremely free and erratic.

What Zhao Shenggang played was a pure sense of elegance.

Pure, without any problems.

All the interpretations were very standard.

However, it was extremely charming.

A restrained charm!

There was no special spitting out, but no place was particularly weak.

Just like a textbook.

You can't find any mistakes in him at all!

Because everything he interpreted was correct!

Countless teachers sitting in the audience couldn't help but stare at him.

Students couldn't understand, but they could clearly know the value of it!

As the saying goes, a textbook is a textbook without any mistakes, telling you the most correct answer in the simplest way!

What Zhao Shenggang played was a textbook-like performance!

"This kind of strength, although not impressive enough, is terrifying!"

"That's right, why did Zhao Shenggang go to Jiangzhou Conservatory of Music? If he came to other conservatories, he should have been the dean of the piano department of that conservatory a long time ago, right?"

"No weaknesses, no weaknesses can be found..."

"Similarly, no characteristics, but this characteristic of no characteristics happens to be his most special characteristic!"

"That's right! If this characteristic is used for teaching, it is very good! Because it can let students play by themselves, and it will not have any influence on their future musical development direction!"

"Almost can be regarded as the top group of piano teachers!"

"..."

Zhao Shenggang played on the stage, and countless students sat in the audience and listened honestly.

Some teachers discussed in a low voice.

And the barrage in the online broadcast became extremely enthusiastic.

"Who am I, where am I, why do I want to listen to such a concert?"

"I thought I could understand it, but reality hit me hard. I am a waste!"

"What the hell? The students of the master class are this kind of people?"

"People like this have to take master classes?"

"Am I too young? Why can't I understand the current situation at all? Isn't this person the head of the piano department? Is this person used as a demonstration example?"

"I finally know why Jiangzhou Conservatory of Music will not provide tickets to the outside world."

"Ah? Why?"

"It's very simple, because tickets are provided, you can understand it?"

"Fuck..."

Everyone looked at Zhao Shenggang in the video and didn't know how to evaluate it for a while.

After all, Zhao Shenggang's level is already here.

No matter who it is, even if Argerich comes, he can't find Zhao Shenggang's mistakes.

It can only be said that Zhao Shenggang's playing is not special and boring.

And it can't be said that there are mistakes.

This is Zhao Shenggang's strength!

This is why Zhao Shenggang has led the piano department of Jiangzhou Conservatory of Music and the piano department of Jiangzhou Art University Conservatory of Music for so many years without being driven away!

His strength is very strong!

However, most people's focus is not on him.

But...

He Shen!

At this moment, not only people from China, but also people from Japan, are also paying attention to the master class of Jiangzhou Conservatory of Music.

Fan Tian Kyohei sat on the chair in his studio, squinting his eyes, looking at the scene in front of him with a smile, without saying a word.

His fingers kept rubbing a lighter that looked simple on the outside, but it felt very expensive.

He looked at Zhao Shenggang on the TV broadcast in front of him, but he didn't care much. He only cared about He Shen who would appear later.

Zhao Shenggang's level is good, but he didn't take it to heart.

Because there is no special feature.

It may be very useful for teaching, but for people like them, his interpretation is particularly monotonous.

Kobayashi Ai yawned, got up from the bed, and turned on the broadcast.

Because she only won the fourth place in the Chopin International Piano Competition before, she did not completely devote herself to the music career.

Instead, she continued to study at the Curtis Institute of Music in the United States.

She had heard before that He Shen was going to hold a public concert. That is to say, she didn't particularly like He Shen, but she still wanted to take a look at this Chinese who had defeated her and everyone else, and see what his current strength was!

Bruce Liu, Liu Yu, turned on the projection in his home in Maple Leaf Country, holding a cup of coffee, lying on the sofa and watching the broadcast.

After losing the Chopin International Piano Competition, he participated in the Van Cliburn International Piano Competition.

In this competition, he crushed everyone and stood in the position of champion with an incomparable attitude.

He squinted at Zhao Shenggang on the screen, not caring, but muttering to himself.

"He Shen, I haven't seen you for so long, your strength..."

"How is it?"

The higher the level of the boss, the more attention he paid to He Shen.

Although Zhao Shenggang's performance in front of him was very strong and very good, it was still a little bit worse for them.

After all, all of them were masters in their interpretation of music!

This Lv8, who is not a master, has just found his own way and has not completely walked out of his own way.

They don't pay special attention.

Everyone's eyes are on the stage, waiting for He Shen to appear.

Although these expectations cannot be conveyed to Zhao Shenggang through the Internet.

But Zhao Shenggang could feel it very clearly, a pressure!

A particularly strong pressure!

Zhao Shenggang tried his best to slow down his breathing and finished the last note steadily.

Buzz...

The sound dissipated.

The concert hall was extremely quiet.

No one dared to break this peace.

Everyone on the stage looked not at Zhao Shenggang, but at a distance.

At the sliding door behind the stage.

Click!

The door slowly opened.

Da...

Da...

Da...

He Shen's footsteps were extremely clear in this concert hall.

He walked slowly to the piano next to Zhao Shenggang, stood up, bowed slightly, and sat down.

Wow!

The applause of the whole audience suddenly rang out.

The barrage on the Internet occupied the entire screen like a screen-sweeping screen!

The smile in Fan Tian Kyohei's eyes gradually disappeared.

Kobayashi Aishi sat there honestly, with an extremely serious look.

Bruce Liu and Liu Yu also drank the coffee in one gulp, leaned forward, and looked at the screen in front of them.

Everyone is looking forward to He Shen's master class
