After seeing his friends off and the vacation over, Yang Jingxing immediately threw himself into intense practice. "Rachmaninoff Piano Concerto No. 3" has three movements and lasts for more than half an hour. It has a huge and heavy structure and is the most difficult in the world.

To play this piece of music well requires not only technique, but also perseverance, endurance, and courage... Most people will be frightened and dizzy after reading two pages of a thick stack of music scores. Even many famous masters only have

Those who can look at the ocean with excitement and sigh, but still feel unconvinced, have lost their skills.

Big octave jumps are already a child's play in Lasanli. This piece covers almost all piano playing techniques and brings the piano's expressive power to the extreme. The powerful notes tilting like a storm across the entire piano range embody the

All the emotional power, sadness, joy, heroism, confusion... The finger independence that piano teachers have repeatedly emphasized is vividly reflected in this piece of music. You really have to do two or even three things at once, otherwise you will not be able to complete several tasks at all.

A perfect fit for each voice.

Yang Jingxing's first play was actually played by himself after listening to CD scores at Jiuchun's home. Not to mention bookstores, it was difficult to find this kind of music score in professional places outside the music school. He only used three music scores to pick up the scores.

One night, the lightning-fast chords and dense and intricate ornamentation in the music were really life-threatening.

Picking up music is a trivial matter, but it is only when you play it that you realize what true gold is and is not afraid of fire. Yang Jingxing practices every night, but it was already half a month after he played it for the first time.

When Li Yingzhen handed the two to three hundred pages of music scores to Yang Jingxing, she was as solemn as giving a letter of appointment and said: "Take a good look at it first, don't worry." There was also a band genealogy, which was even more terrifying.

Yang Jingxing flipped through it quickly and discovered the problem: "It's different from the version I heard."

The version given by Li Yingzhen has ossa, which means that some parts that are too difficult will be simplified in performance. No one will laugh at you, this is what masters do.

But Yang Jingxing didn't want to, so he played what he had practiced for Li Yingzhen to listen to.

After listening, Li Yingzhen stared at Yang Jingxing for a while, then stood up, pointed at Yang Jingxing, and asked, "How long have you been practicing?"

Yang Jingxing said: "Have fun at home during the holidays."

Li Yingzhen was very scolded: "You just want to reach the sky in one step!"

Yang Jingxing chuckled innocently.

The master and apprentice went to the library to find the authentic music score and checked if there were any errors in Yang Jingxing's own score. In fact, there were indeed, after all, there were so many notes.

Then Li Yingzhen asked Yang Jingxing to play again, while she listened and quickly turned over the music and made notes. Although Yang Jingxing's playing surprised her and she was able to perform on stage, it was not at the level he could achieve.

Yang Jingxing played the piece four or five times without even having lunch. Li Yingzhen kept discovering the lack of details and kept correcting them.

In the afternoon, students from the piano department came to class, but Li Yingzhen wanted to ask them to come back at another time. Yang Jingxing was embarrassed: "Professor Li, give him a class. I have to digest a lot of content slowly. What can you eat, I

Go buy it.”

Li Yingzhen was not polite: "Whatever, just a packed lunch, keep it light."

Yang Jingxing hurried over and finished eating quickly before giving it to Li Yingzhen, which was still two dishes and one soup. Maybe it was because Yang Jingxing had not made any big mistakes recently that Li Yingzhen scolded, and the sophomore student became a punching bag and was criticized so much. Yang Jingxing was so embarrassed.

Sorry to see it, I quickly retreated and went to the student piano room.

The student piano rooms are on the 15th to 18th floors of the new teaching building. There are quite a lot of them, but there are more students who want to use the piano. Students use the piano room with the piano card issued by the school, and students in the piano department can use it the most.

The composition department is not bad, but the education department and management department are a bit worse.

Because the piano room is tight, it is impossible for someone to occupy it for a long time. However, Yang Jingxing is an exception. He has special care from Li Yingzhen. Although he stays in the piano room for four or five hours at a time, the management teacher will never drive him away.

Even those from the piano department want to take it.

In the elevator, a boy who was not much different from Yang Jingxing greeted him: "Are you a freshman?"

Yang Jingxing nodded: "Take care of me."

The boy asked: "Aren't you from the piano department?"

"Composition major."

Boy, then he was a little surprised: "Is your name Yang Jingxing?"

Yang Jingxing was frightened for a while: "Ah! Am I famous?"

The boy laughed and introduced himself as a junior in college. He said that he had heard his teacher and some classmates talk about Yang Jingxing and that he knew a lot about it: "Have you studied piano with Li Yingzhen since you were a child?"

Yang Jingxing said: "That's right."

"No wonder... Professor Xie and I."

After arriving at the piano room, the tall boy obviously wanted to hear Yang Jingxing show off his skills. Yang Jingxing did not refuse, nor did he hold back. He took it seriously and played the Equal Temperament song.

They are all practitioners, and you can tell how good your kung fu is by doing a horse stance. The tall boy smiled and said, "Our courtyard hasn't had anyone in it for several years...haven't you participated in a competition before?"

Yang Jingxing modestly said: "Not even close."

The boy guessed: "But the game is boring now, so I won't bother you anymore."

As soon as the people left, Yang Jingxing immediately started to play the third movement. For the cadenza of the first movement, he re-selected the major chord version and had to practice it several times. Then came the passages and sections that Li Yingzhen said were not perfect. Li Yingzhen’s listening comments

She is truly an expert among experts. She can immediately point out many small details that Yang Jingxing did not discover on his own.

There are many piano rooms on the first floor. The sound insulation effect of the walls is very good, but the doors are not good. Walking all the way from the bright and clean corridor, you can clearly hear the sound of the piano coming from inside every door.

After Yang Jingxing practiced for two hours, he suddenly heard a knock on the door and asked him to come in. Six people were invited in. Three men and three women, including the tall boy from before.

The tall boy was embarrassed: "We have been listening for half an hour. This is my classmate and girlfriend." He introduced a girl next to him, who looked very gentle.

Yang Jingxing seemed to be so familiar: "Beautiful, you're not here to show off, are you?"

A few people laughed and introduced each other. There were two sophomores from the piano department, two juniors from the piano department, and one from the conducting department.

The boys in the conducting department were very dissatisfied and said, "Just play it all again, we're so anxious!" Yang Jingxing had been practicing small sections just now, touching here and there, and he was greedy.

Others chimed in: "Yeah, that's already great!"

Yang Jingxing flattered him: "They are all seniors and seniors, please give me more guidance."

Yang Jingxing started playing, and the others stood and listened. As they listened, the boys in the conducting department became excited, and their movements of tapping the time became bigger and bigger. When Yang Jingxing entered the second movement, he almost kissed the ground. Chapter 1

In the third movement, his gestures were so exaggerated that he scared everyone around him. It was unclear whether he was conducting Yang Jingxing or Yang Jingxing was conducting him.

After playing the song, Yang Jingxing was sweating profusely. The boy in the conducting department spoke up first, shouting: "Okay, great!"

Several other people also applauded, and the sophomore girl asked: "Why haven't I heard of you before?"

Another asked the old question: "What games have you been to?"

Yang Jingxing was humble for a while before sending these people away and continuing to practice.

Of course, you still have to take classes in your major. Otherwise, the composition department is boring. It means sight-singing and ear training every day, listening and listening, but it is not appreciation! Then there is harmony, analyzing the chords of the music bar by bar...

There is still a lot of homework to do! Although it is almost like elementary school math for Yang Jingxing, he still completes it seriously.

He Hongchui didn't pay as much attention to Yang Jingxing as Li Yingzhen did, but he still cared about him. Although he didn't have any classes with him yet, he met with Yang Jingxing several times alone and assigned him some self-study tasks and writing tasks. This kind of writing task is not called

You give full play to your inspiration and talent to create, but there are strict format requirements, stipulating what kind of chords you want to write and what kind of connections you want to use...it's also boring!

October 13th, Friday, was a light rain and a bit cold. In the afternoon, Tao Meng called and asked if Yang Jingxing was free during the weekend. She wanted to come to the Conservatory of Music to visit.

It's miserable, Yang Jingxing's time during the day has been occupied by Li Yingzhen. The old professor is willing to sacrifice his rest time to tutor you for free. You, Yang Jingxing, can't say you want to meet your high school classmates.

Yang Jingxing asked: "Is it okay at night?"

Tao Meng said loudly: "Of course not, I have to go home at night."

Yang Jingxing said: "Then next weekend, I will pick you up."

Tao Meng said disdainfully: "Forget it, I don't want to go yet." She hung up the phone.

Yang Jingxing called back again, warning: "If you hang up again, I'll get used to it, so I won't fight you!"

Tao Meng said nothing and hung up again.

It seemed that Yang Jingxing was not used to it yet, so he called again: "To be honest, who are you? I often doubt that you are not Tao Meng."

Tao Meng was annoyed: "Can't you hear my voice?"

Yang Jingxing said: "So I'm just suspicious. Let me ask you, how many moles does Tao Meng have on her face?"

Tao Meng might have to look in the mirror to confirm: "...There isn't even one."

Yang Jingxing shouted: "Sure enough! There is one in front of her left ear, saying, who are you?"

"...You're so young, you don't care! Hey, are you bored?" Tao Meng became gentler.

Yang Jingxing changed the topic: "I really can't do it this weekend, next time."

Tao Meng said: "It's up to you, I may not have time... Can you adapt to college life?"

Yang Jingxing said: "Apart from the fact that there are no beautiful women at the same table, everything else is fine."

Tao Meng chuckled: "Every time we have a big class, there are five or six people in a row sitting at the same table."

Yang Jingxing asked: "Are you sitting in a row alone?"

"How is that possible!"

Yang Jingxing was sad: "Broken promise!"

Tao Mengfan: "I always sit with girls."

Yang Jingxing praised: "That's pretty much it, keep up the good work."

Tao Meng asked: "How did you go to class?"

Yang Jingxing described: "More than a dozen people, one person per table, scattered here and there, except for sight-singing and ear training."

Tao Meng was very interested: "What is sight-singing and ear training?"
