The exchange continued, and the students in the piano department gradually showed the good quality of not being ashamed to ask questions, and began to discuss some technical and theoretical issues with Yang Jingxing, but more of them were just experience. Everyone has studied for many years, and they know what is good and what is not.

There is no big difference in artistic value orientation, it’s just that some people can do it and some are still a little behind.

How can the open broken chords in Chopin's Etude No. 1 be both fast and powerful? How should the chromatic scales in Etude No. 2 be flexible without extraordinary talent? The eight-handed eight in "Majepa"

Do you have any tips for making contact?

Yang Jingxing was talking about some of his own experiences while demonstrating. He seemed to be able to do everything well. It was simply too easy for him to change his style and techniques. He seemed to have absolutely no need for excellence that was hard to change after years of hard training.

However, everyone's interest seems to only stay at the technical level of difficulty, as if Yang Jingxing is a performance machine who can only answer or satisfy everyone's curiosity.

The head of the department discovered the problem. After Yang Jingxing showed off for a while and received some exclamations, he stood up and turned around to remind the students: "Although most of you don't know much about Yang Jingxing, I hope everyone will not fall into the misunderstanding. They are not taking exams as part-timers."

, be more pragmatic, be more profound, and try to learn something useful to yourself. Confucius also said that when three people walk together, there must be one teacher."

The students expressed their humbly acceptance of the director's teachings. The director turned to Yang Jingxing and said, "Yang Jingxing, we have heard you play the piano not once or twice. The previous times were also very good, especially in terms of technique. But today I am even more happy."

, Why? Because today you heard yourself and Yang Jingxing more clearly, and you have integrated into it more deeply, right? "

When the director asked with his eyes, the teachers and professors all expressed their affirmation. Professor Feng nodded and commented: "The personal color is more prominent and stable."

"That's very good. Professor Li has trained you very successfully." After the director praised you, his tone suddenly became more severe: "But today is a performance exchange meeting, not a training class for exams! The teacher thinks you are excellent and will give you this opportunity. No.

Because you can play three will-o’-the-wisps, you’re not here to teach everyone these gorgeous skills. Do you understand?”

Yang Jingxing nodded: "I understand...but everyone usually listens to professors in class, what else can I say?"

Li Yingzhen gave a stern order: "Just tell me your truest thoughts deep in your heart!"

Yang Jingxing nodded: "I'm a little scared."

Amidst a burst of laughter, Yang Jingxing said quickly: "But since we want to communicate, I will invite all the students who have praised me today to perform, and then I will share my own opinions. Let me state in advance that these are purely personal opinions, and they are not related to those who eat.

The taste is the same.”

The host hurriedly stepped forward to take over: "Okay, now let's invite today's first student guest, Yu Xinting. She will play the third movement of Yang Jingxing's C-sharp minor sonata for everyone."

Everyone welcomed, Yang Jingxing stood up and gave the stool to Yu Xinting, and added: "It's selfish, I let her play mine because I'm afraid she will compare me to others, and I can comment at will."

Some people had a laugh. Yu Xinting laughed so hard that she was embarrassed. She bowed to the teachers before sitting down, and then looked at Yang Jingxing, who had switched places with her and was opening the music sheet. These procedures were all determined by Li Yingzhen in advance, but

Yang Jingxing's lines were unexpected and improvised.

Li Yingzhen also made a surprise attack. She stood up and said to everyone seriously and kindly: "Some people have heard Yu Xinting play this piece in the concert hall last time. Many people have the score, and I believe there are also people who can play it."

However, you should have some experience more or less. I remind everyone that when listening, you should pay attention to the development and contrast between several themes. At this time, do not think of things like the scorching sun in the rain, and understand this work carefully... Xin Ting,

Let’s get started.”

Everyone in the rehearsal room is very serious, appreciating, evaluating, hosting, standing, sitting... The most serious one is Yu Xinting, and she is too serious, as if she wants to regain her original performance in the concert hall.

The feeling of passion and selflessness, but she was not very successful, the appearance was similar but not the meaning, and some accidental and good emotions were missing. Of course, because of such a long period of practice, many details came out.

Although Yu Xinting already knew the score by heart and almost sounded it right, Yang Jingxing still turned over the score.

After Yu Xinting finished playing, everyone gave a small round of applause. Under the attention of Yu Xinting and others, Yang Jingxing stood up and said happily: "There is also a selfish intention. She can improve my composition major by playing."

Not many people were willing to agree with Yang Jingxing's pitiful sense of humor. He had no choice but to continue and said to everyone in a very pertinent manner: "Purely from the author's point of view, I think Yu Xinting's performance can be rated 90 points, out of 100. Very good.

Excellent, after all, the music itself is what it is. From a purely performer’s perspective, I think I can play it to 912 points.”

Everyone's laughter made Yu Xinting look down at the piano keys in embarrassment.

Yang Jingxing continued with a sincere attitude: "Tell me where the gap between the two points is in my opinion. In the third section, she played the do, la, sol on the right hand like this..."

Yang Jingxing stood and stretched out his right hand to demonstrate Yu Xinting's playing on the keyboard. Yu Xinting checked her body a little to make room.

Yang Jingxing seemed to have entered the state: "I think it's a little lighter here. If it were me, I would be a little heavier, and then there would be a slight pause, but very small..."

This is an extremely small detail. Yang Jingxing has also discussed with Yu Xinting before, but he mostly talked about some general directions of musical phrases and sections, and rarely analyzed them note by note. First, Yu Xinting

At that time, I didn't have time to digest and absorb the details. Moreover, there are thousands of notes in a work, so it is difficult to correct it in this way.

"If we don't think of ways to strengthen the theme in the audience at this time, they will lose their patience and attention..." Yang Jingxing rambled on for a long time about a two-bar section.

Perhaps Yang Jingxing's pretentious seriousness and sincerity deserved a response, and he sounded thoughtful. The teachers and students all nodded, with Yu Xinting almost taking the lead.

Li Yingzhen's expression became much gentler and she suggested: "Xinting, play the first five bars as he said."

Yu Xinting was basically able to meet this requirement. She did it again, and many people nodded in approval.

Yang Jingxing, however, was very demanding: "Can it be a little bigger? Can it remind you of the beginning of Chopin's Fourth Scherzo..."

Standing on the podium for the first time, Yang Jingxing was able to extend his talk. The atmosphere in the room was finally like an exchange meeting, and no one was dissatisfied with the suspicion that Yang Jingxing was giving him a favor.

According to Li Yingzhen's request, Yang Jingxing went down the score one by one to find out the problems that Yu Xinting had when playing his own works. Most of them are details, which are difficult for ordinary students to discover on their own without comparison and pointers.

detail.

Gradually, teachers and classmates also began to join the discussion. Most of the teachers supplemented and explained Yang Jingxing's views and intentions, and the students mainly asked questions and asked for advice. Although it is a relatively unfamiliar piece of music compared to traditional music, it was not a quiet moment.

, a small question can inspire a lot of viewpoints, and some people have begun to understand the emotional connotation of the work. Yu Xinting seems to be happy to be a teaching tool, and is not afraid to expose her own shortcomings.

About a quarter of an hour later, we reached the middle part of the movement, where there was a wonderful conflict of themes, and everyone was talking more enthusiastically. A boy just stood up to ask a question, but he immediately sat down again because Chen Yu in front raised his hand.

Compared to how calm she had been for such a long time, her hands were still raised quite high.

Yang Jingxing said politely: "Please."

Chen Yu did not stand up, but acted like a professional and rigorous reporter: "Excuse me, are these analyzes of yours from the perspective of the author or the perspective of the performer?

Chen Yu is quite serious, but others definitely think she is more humorous than Yang Jingxing, which caused a lot of laughter in the rehearsal room where she had been studying for a long time.

Yang Jingxing also smiled: "For me, there is no conflict between the two, they are unified."

Chen Yu asked again: "So what kind of re-creation do you hope others will have when they play your work? Listening to your performance, do you agree that there will be re-creation?"

The powerful people even asked questions with a stronger momentum, and everyone followed Chen Yu and became serious.

Yang Jingxing, who was looked up by Yu Xinting, said: "My only hope is that someone is willing to play my stuff, and it would be best if they have fun playing it."

Everyone applauded, Yu Xinting bowed her head again, Chen Yu waited for a moment and then nodded: "Thank you, please continue."

It took Yang Jingxing almost another quarter of an hour to finish analyzing Yu Xinting's performance, showing how high-end his own works were.

However, Yang Jingxing still felt a little ashamed: "I'm sorry, I've wasted so much of everyone's time here."

A boy in the front row said loudly and loyally: "Don't be so modest. This sonata is very good, and the lectures are also good."

Everyone gave this boy applause and cheers, and the host took the opportunity to smile and say a thousand words: "Thank you Yang Jingxing, thank you Yu Xinting, thank you all, and next, please ask An Xin to play Mendelssohn's Solemn Variations for everyone."

An Xin came forward and Yu Xinting gave up her seat. Then she and Yang Jingxing declined the chair to each other. Perhaps because they were afraid of being embarrassed in front of everyone, Yu Xinting sat down without insisting, leaving Yang Jingxing to continue standing.

An Xin is the leader in the freshman piano department at Puyin. She played a piece of music that everyone is familiar with without any mistakes. It has both general outline and details, which is remarkable. At least no one showed any impatience for ten minutes.

There are many others who are impressed.

Yang Jingxing applauded with everyone, and then said: "Anxin is one of the hardest working classmates I know. I believe she can realize her ideals."

An Xin didn't even look at Yang Jingxing, she just smiled lightly.

A girl hid and said loudly: "Compared with the night watchman, you tell a joke."

As expected, everyone laughed. An Xin and Yu Xinting looked at each other, and their smiles became even brighter.

Yang Jingxing smiled dryly and started talking about business: "An Xin's overall performance is very good..."

It is another detailed study, and Yang Jingxing is good at analyzing it from the perspective of composition, such as the inner part of the sixteenth note in the first variation and the sextuplet in the second variation, so that we can roughly see the author's intention. An Xin gave Yang Jingxing face.

, listen carefully and implement his guidance humbly.

Because it is a piece that everyone is familiar with, it gets more responses. Although the professor is no worse than Yang Jingxing in class, he teaches more students, so he does not explain the details to everyone so carefully every day. What's more, Yang Jingxing now doesn't talk about performance theory.

No matter what, at least the theoretical knowledge of composition is much richer than that of professors in the piano department.

But Yang Jingxing didn't select so many details this time. He only selected a few outstanding ones and analyzed them carefully, and talked about the others in one or two sentences. He became more and more like a teacher with clear priorities. There were six students behind him as well.

We're waiting for the performance. We can't spend more than half an hour per person.

After analyzing An Xin's performance, the host suggested taking a break. The teachers and professors still had a sense of identity and went out to have tea.

Yu Xinting and An Xin discussed going to the toilet and asked Yang Jingxing to sit for a while: "You have to stand for a long time!"

Yang Jingxing sat and replied to the text messages sent by Wang Rui and Gao Pianpian wishing the exchange meeting a success. The boy who had given him the loyalty of a man before came to talk to him: "I didn't see it, but you can really talk." The boy laughed and teased,

There was no deliberate admiration or long-standing admiration that stranger classmates usually showed towards the night watchman in the North Tower.

Yang Jingxing smiled: "Thank you, thank you very much for supporting me."

The boy said: "You're welcome, why didn't you see anyone from 306?"

Yang Jingxing said: "They have gone to work."

The two chatted for a while, but many people came to watch and participate. After two or three minutes, seven or eight people stood around Yang Jingxing, and he stood up.

One girl cherished the opportunity and got straight to the point: "How do you write a pop song? You don't need money, right?"

Another answer: "Don't you understand? Quality education, all-round development."

There are also repeated questions: "Where are Qi Qingnuo's group?"

Someone also answered helpfully: "Others are at work now, people from the Chinese orchestra!"

So someone called out their concern: "Yang Jingxing, are you under a lot of pressure?"
