Since it is a key argument, the lecturer has to present the "Moonlight Sonata" more comprehensively. He selected three excerpts from the first movement, each of which is nearly half a minute long. Of course, he performed it in a form that is beneficial to his own point of view.

.

The audience did not intend to let it go easily, and they all concentrated on watching closely.

In the second movement, Yang Jingxing only played two representative short fragments, which took more than half a minute in total.

Some members of the audience seemed to have grasped something, and they kept each other informed.

The third movement of "Moonlight Sonata", the most famous, popular and most performed instrumental piece in human history, is a magical movement that has been performed by many piano masters in different styles without causing controversy and comparison. Not only the academic community has

The movement remains as tolerant as the ocean, and even loyal fans of a particular player will be willing to accept and appreciate different players' interpretations, even if they are contrary to each other, as each has its own merits.

Various words have been used by musicians, critics, writers and even arty politicians and businessmen to describe the third movement of the Moonlight Sonata: warm, strong, angry, boiling, passionate, deep, painful, unrestrained, conquering, bone-deep... and

There are countless interpretation methods and genres of different emotional colors corresponding to these words.

Even though there were countless mountains blocking the way, today's lecturer still found another way to justify his explanation. Especially to professional ears, the first few bars of the movement played on the stage were already considered audacious.

Of course, Curtis has a professional ear. When the lecturer finished demonstrating the first dozen bars of the movement, he paused briefly and immediately began to demonstrate the main theme of the second section. Many people in the audience could not hide their surprise.

Weird, what is this?

What's even more outrageous is that after the lecturer demonstrated the second theme, the rhythm and volume of the music were erratic and unorganized, and some parts violated the current music notation requirements.

I feel that the well-informed Curtis people have also begun to lose their composure. Some students have dumbfounded expressions, and some are full of restlessness and want to stand up immediately to expose and accuse the lecturer. Compared with the minority caused by the music style

I was surprised and suspected that the more negative expressions in the audience were obviously caused by the stinginess of the lecturer. When Yang Jingxing stopped a wonderful and beautiful paragraph suddenly, the frowns in the audience started one after another. It took a few bars of the first paragraph to regain their composure.

Focus.

Don't be too stingy. Yang Jingxing gave a three-minute demonstration of the third movement. This movement usually lasts only six or seven minutes. It can be said that the lecturer has demonstrated his understanding quite comprehensively, and it has a beginning and an end. Although this movement

The ending is also outrageous.

When the last note on the stage fell, those in the audience who maintained their demeanor raised their hands in time to show that they were not shocked at all and were still ready to applaud step by step.

But Yang Jingxing spoke faster: "How does it sound?"

There was silence and no one answered. Those who seemed more excited did not stand up. They were still watching around, as if they didn't want to be the first person or wanted to unite more people, but their movements were actually not as good as those who remained silent.

Staring at the people on the stage is impressive.

Yang Jingxing really dared to ask: "Does anyone think this Moonlight Sonata is not bad?"

As the lecturer looked at her, the girl with a handsome face and not too dark skin showed her responsibility, straightened her upper body and sacrificed herself: "I like it." The voice was not loud, but it was quiet in the crowded room.

The house seemed so lonely and helpless.

Yang Jingxing laughed, but he was basically smiling.

"Me too." A white boy in the front row nodded seriously: "It's not bad, I mean it would be better if you could listen to the whole story." Does this guy have a crush on a girl? He looked back and saw that he really got half of it.

The black girl's sideways glance.

With just the two of them, Yang Jingxing could only nod his head: "Okay, maybe this is too much..."

What do you mean? Are you looking down on people? Do you still want to show off to Curtis with this little thing? Several voices immediately emerged from the audience and expressed their enthusiasm that they not only liked it but also thought it was very good and special, and then more people nodded in agreement.

The room was almost lively. The Curtis people were very efficient in unifying their opinions and even immediately tried to express the reasons why it was good. The half-black girl was moved by the strong support from her classmates and teachers.

Yang Jingxing also had to speak louder: "Just imagine, which of Beethoven's previous sonatas has such potential?"

The audience quickly fell silent, but it was not a sign of weakness. Someone immediately responded: "Sad!"

Yang Jingxing asked: "How to do it?"

The boy looked confused.

Yang Jingxing still gave him face: "Don't give it a try..." This time he was too lazy to sit down and messed around with the essence of the Pathetique Sonata. After feeling that it was not the case, he asked others for help: "Who has a better idea?

?"

No one gives face.

Yang Jingxing began to talk to himself again: "Actually, I don't really like the Moonlight Sonata just now..."

The audience was stunned, and for a short time there was no anger at being fooled.

Yang Jingxing paced sideways: "But this does not prevent us from proving the inclusiveness of the work. I thought of a simple word to imprecisely summarize the reasons for this inclusiveness..."

The audience was on high alert.

Yang Jingxing was embarrassed and looked at the three Chinese students sitting together on the left to speak in their native language: "How do you say love and hate?"

The three Chinese students looked at each other, and the girl, who was probably only sixteen or seventeen years old, said loudly and clearly: "love-haterelationship."

People like Curtis, in order to appear that they are geniuses, do not know how to learn lessons. As soon as the Chinese girl finished speaking, the room was suddenly filled with enlightenment and enlightenment. These young people became more and more excited.

Yang Jingxing came again: "I don't think this is a relationship. Is there any such thing as lovehate interweave?"

Everyone looked at each other, some shook their heads, as if there was no such thing, but some people seemed to think that this statement was not a problem after repeating it twice.

It’s really lacking, but Yang Jingxing is not afraid: “In Chinese we say lovehate interweave, which I think is more vivid, especially for this sonata. In Chinese we call interweave interweave, and music texture weave. The same weave means.

It's weave, it's gossip... That's why I think Moonlight Sonata is a great work, the relationship it contains between love and hate."

The audience seemed to be quite interested in gossip.

Yang Jingxing teased again: "Understanding music can transcend worldly troubles...a beautiful wish."

The students were happy.

Yang Jingxing was serious again: "It's probably this desire that made Beethoven constantly surpass himself. Thank you for thinking so."

The students also paid solemn tribute to the great composer.

Yang Jingxing walked in the opposite direction and sorted out his thoughts: "Genius and talent, technical theory and personal characteristics..."

A curly-haired white boy shouted directly and rudely: "If you don't like the Moonlight Sonata just now, how would you play it?" The accent sounded like he was not a local.

Not only did no teacher stand up to criticize, but the people in the room seemed to support the boy's question, and they all looked like they wanted to hear the answer. Some of them looked eager.

Yang Jingxing declined politely: "Let us continue chatting about talents..."

There was almost a burst of laughter, and the dean and Grafman also laughed.

Yang Jingxing was very strong and kept his expression straight: "Since we are talking about Beethoven, we might as well talk about Mozart, one of the most undoubted geniuses in the history of human civilization. We can imagine with great regret that if Mozart did not die young, if he could be healthy

What will happen if we live to be sixty or even eighty years old?"

I got rich, suddenly got rich, this is probably the expression of the audience.

What Yang Jingxing said is not new: "Mozart created the pinnacle of music history, but he is still far from his personal peak..."

The audience also listened carefully.

Yang Jingxing also used the knowledge Qi Qingnuo shared with him: "There is a translator in China who said that if Beethoven gave us the courage to fight, then what Mozart shared with me is infinite confidence..."

It turns out that Curtis's students also like to listen to the chatter, and all of them enjoy it with great gusto. The solemn academic atmosphere before the lecture begins is probably an act. However, some students also find opportunities to suggest to the lecturer: "Can you tell me about Mozart?"

Piano sonata or concerto? Thank you."

It was such a word that woke people up from their dreams. The students nodded in a pious manner to express that they also loved learning very much.

Yang Jingxing was a little embarrassed: "Mozart is so special. I think we can know Beethoven through his music, and Mozart should know his music through him. Have any of you tried to become Mozart's friend?"

It was indeed a gathering place for geniuses, and there were actually four or five people who nodded in agreement. The curly-haired white boy who raised his hand looked like an aristocrat and was even a little proud: "I think I know him quite well. Mozart was an optimistic and humorous person who conveyed happiness."

, I appreciate this spiritual friend very much."

Yang Jingxing: "Can you choose a few favorite works?"

"The piano concertos after No. 20, some sonatas, Violin Concertos No. 4 and 5..." The boy introduced himself first: "I play the piano, my name is Dominic Horn, and I'm from Hungary."

Face is given to each other, and Yang Jingxing was even surprised: "It was you who won the Best Concerto Award in the Chopin Competition?"

The boy suddenly became humble and said: "Yes." It was only two months ago, and winning second place in the competition and the Best Concerto Award on the bicentenary of Chopin's birth is quite significant.

Yang Jingxing nodded: "I listened to part of your game recording. It's very good, smooth and coordinated."

The boy became more cheerful again: "Thank you, sir."

Yang Jingxing did not dare to comment too much on the runner-up, so it was safer to talk nonsense: "Compared to Beethoven, it might be more interesting to compare Chopin with Mozart. Their piano works look so different. I think this difference is mainly because

The development of composition and performance technology, but beyond technology, I guess Chopin also regarded Mozart as a good friend."

Seeing the lecturer walking towards the piano again, some audience members also adjusted their sitting postures, seeming to be more serious about enjoying music than listening to nonsense.

Yang Jingxing started a section before he could sit down, and then took care of more people: "This is Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 6."

The audience nodded, and what was said on stage was correct.

Yang Jingxing played another melody and told everyone: "The Polish song ring from Chopin."

Those in the audience who like to nod continue to nod, and those who like to think use their brains even more.

Yang Jingxing did not give any time: "This may be a coincidence, but there are many such coincidences. I regard these as the wealth that Chopin drew from genius and can use it for his own use. This is an aboveboard approach, sensitive and intelligent discovery

We can look at more examples of things that are beneficial to ourselves..."

The lecturer started playing again and explained a little, but it was still obvious that many students could not keep up with the rhythm. After all, most of the students were just geniuses in a certain instrument, not musicologists. What was even more annoying was Yang Jingxing.

He only wanted to present the evidence quickly without considering the integrity of the music at all. He even played only half of a phrase. To put it nicely, he only played it to the end. In fact, he was stingy at all and did not care about the feelings of the audience at all.
To be continued...
