Chapter 500: Incomparable
Rebirth 1998 Chapter 500 Can't compare
This person's performance is pretty good, but it's too rigid. Humph. I didn't feel like this when I was playing the song." Lu Wei was explaining the difference between the two songs "Turkish Sonata" with the little girl beside him. Beethoven's dissatisfaction suddenly sounded in his ears.
"No. I think Teacher Kong plays very well." Listening to Beethoven's voice coming from his mind, Lu Wei communicated with consciousness.
"Teacher? You said he is a teacher? You blamed your original piano foundation for such a good one!" Beethoven snorted disapprovingly.
Lu Wei also felt that there was nothing to deal with when it came to Beethoven's disdain for Kong Xiangdong. Although Kong Xiangdong was also a world-class steelmaker, in the eyes of Beethoven, who was amazing in the piano, he was probably just an ordinary person who played it well. Although he wanted to refute Beethoven's words, Lu Wei felt that he didn't know how to talk about it. He had to choose to remain silent.
Fortunately, after Lu Wei ignored Betto, he was also calm for a while.
After the first song was performed, Kong Xiangdong stood up to greet the audience. After applause, he played a Mozart sonata k28. It is a light and elegant song. At Kong Xiangdong's level, he plays such a song. Naturally, he is at ease. The light and flexible ten is like dancing a noble dance on the keys. It is calm and composed. The music flows in the air like a string of transparent and cheerful water droplets.
"Wow, Uncle Kong plays so well. This song is so good." The little girl who just talked to Lu Wei said in a low voice to her mother beside her.
"Shhhh, Anjingya, Teacher Kong is playing the piano. You will hit the person next to you. How rude is it." The young mother's path.
"Oh~~" After being criticized by her mother, Yaya looked like a good girl and began to look at her with relish. From her serious expression, she really liked this song very much.
"Well. This song is very suitable for his style. Mott's thing is that it carries a royal bunch. It is square and neat but lacks a free and easy sound. I don't like this kind of music." In Lu Wei's mind, Beethoven's voice sounded again.
Listening to Beethoven's words, Lu Wei felt a little funny. Mozart and Beethoven, one is a pure classical music master, and the other is a pioneer who gathered the great success of classical music and set the forefront of romanticism. The music of the two people can be said to be completely different from the same style. Lu naturally understood that Beethoven did not like Mozart's music. But he did not expect that Beethoven would say so directly.
But then I thought about it, wasn’t this Beethoven’s character? He hated evil like hatred and his nature was like a fire. From his music, he could see his character. Any Beethoven’s music was full of anger and struggle and challenges to tradition. He was an alternative that was inconsistent with the times. His greatness. No one understood him when he was alive. Until after his death, people gradually understood what a great soul was wrapped in that unruly and wild appearance!
The first movement of k28 ended. Kong Xiangdong as usual stood up to greet the audience. The song had three movements in total. All of them were finished. It would probably take about twenty-five minutes. Kong Xiangdong naturally would not finish all three musical scores. After a little preparation, the third song rang again.
This time, it was replaced by the famous piano etude "Zhong" adapted by Liszt from Paganini's violin. It is one of the most well-known musicals among the great "piano demon king" Liszt's many super difficult works. The level of this song is even more famous than the original violin music. It has become a song loved by many musicians at many piano concerts. It seems that people hope to prove their level through such a song.
"Dear audiences, what you will hear next is the work of the famous pianist Liszt - "Clock". This work was created in 180-1834. It is a piano solo, G-sing minor, slightly quick-pitched. 6/8. It is adapted from the Hungarian writer Liszt based on Paganini's violin "Clock". This is the third of the six piano pieces "Paganini's Theme Etude" written by Liszt to dedicate to the German pianist Kraschurman.
According to records, after listening to Grini's concert in Paris, Liszt was amazed at his superb creation and performance skills. He was determined to become Paganini on the steel. The following year, he created the full title "The Gorgeous Great Fantasy Based on Paganini's "Clock". The "Clock" was written based on this song. The music basically uses three-section style. Due to the use of many theme changes and repetitions, it also has the characteristics of variations and rondos. This etude fully utilizes the skill of the piano. It is a very difficult piece. OK. Please enjoy it together!" Li Bin's sweet voice sounded and introduced it to the audience. The previous two songs. Li Bin did not report the show. But this song alone gave such a detailed introduction. It can be seen that this was also the organizer's arrangement.
Listen to the audience
The warm applause. Wang He was very happy on his face sitting on one side of the stage. The standard concert will undoubtedly make his piano store reputation a higher level and further enhance his influence in the piano industry in Qinhuangdao City.
Wang He also became energetic when he heard Kong Xiangdong playing the bell. Although Kong Xiangdong played well, Wang He didn't agree much. Because at his level, it was completely fine to play these two songs. Although he seemed to be better than himself just now, Wang He didn't think so. He always felt that Kong Xiangdong used the piano too well. If he used this 17 million piano, he might be able to play it almost the same.
However, Wang He didn't dare to think so about this song about Liszt adapted from Paganini's "Clock". There was a while ago. Wang He had tried to practice this song. In fact, his thoughts at that time were also to chew off the song. Fortunately, he showed his level in front of others. But unexpectedly, it was just the score on the first page. He practiced for a full week and finally played it. After sighing that the song written by Liszt was really not played by humans, Wang He completely cut off his thoughts about this song.
When Wang heard that Kong Xiangdong was going to play a song, he wanted to see what he could do to play this perverted song.
After a brief prelude, the theme of "bell" appears in the treble area. The crisp and pleasant treble area tone and overtone play form a short and powerful sound, forming a series of vivid and realistic small bells.
Kong Xiangdong's right hand was like an accurate machinery, beating skillfully on the piano. The little finger of his right hand gently touched the keys. Stanway faithfully feedbacked every tiniest change of force. The transparent sound was like the precise beating of a clock. The crystal clear music seemed to flow all the way to the heart.
"Okay. It's so good! How can I practice it? It's so easy to play it. Oh. I can't compare it. I'm worthy of being a master." After only a while, Wang He sighed in his heart. This is the real level. Compared to others, his skills are not enough to see at all. It's ridiculous that I just naively thought that if I changed to a good piano, I could be as good as others. Fortunately, I didn't say this, otherwise I wouldn't be laughed at to death.
Most of the people in the audience were shocked by Kong Xiangdong's superb piano skills. The complex and clear music and the right hand that moved rapidly on the keys gave people a double visual and auditory enjoyment. This wonderful performance was the first time that many people saw it.
"It's so hard!". This - the first thought in my heart. Many audiences present were piano teachers who came here. Seeing this song "Clock", everyone showed a convincing expression and said intimately: "This is the real piano skill!". And those piano children were completely stunned and secretly sighed about how to practice to achieve this level!
"Well. This etude is quite standardized. But it's too slow. It's good to play." Beethoven said without thinking after listening for a while.
After listening to Beethoven's words, Lu did not refute. Although Kong Xiangdong's performance was indeed very standardized in technology, it was still a little bit worse than the real show of skills. Lu Wei didn't even have to look at the metronome to know that Kong Xiangdong's current speed was definitely not as fast as the original song's requirement. Although the speed was reduced in exchange for a clearer texture, Lu Wei's this destroyed the overall feeling of the music.
He had heard of Kissing's version. Only that version reached the original speed required by the music. However, although Kissing's performance was full of rhythm, there was a little mixed up in the climax part with a dance-style style at the back. It was also not perfect.
As early as a while ago, when Lu Wei was trying to play this song, he was surprised to find that he could actually play smoothly and clearly at the original speed. This is thanks to his solid basic skills this year. Therefore, Lu Wei admitted that what Bedo just said, "Kong Xiangdong is still as good as himself." After all, this is the fact.
The song ended. Dong received a tide of applause. It was obvious that this song shocked the audience. The first two songs were far away.
After signaling to the audience, Xiangdong walked to the side of the stage and asked for the microphone in the host's hand.
"Next, I want to invite a special guest. He was once the winner of the gold medal at the China International Piano Competition. He was a student of the Curtis Conservatory of Music in the United States. Of course, he was also a disciple and friend. For some reason, he had some problems a few days ago. But now everything has passed. Today, I invite him to attend my concert and sincerely wish him the better on his future piano path! Lu Wei!" Kong Xiangdong said, stretching out his hand below the stage.
Chapter completed!
