Rebirth, please come with me, and show the "Five Small Pianos, which are the Master's Cup Roaring Piano. If you need to be familiar with the piano, you can contact the staff to try it out." The tour guide led everyone to a booth made of plexiglass of more than 200 square meters. On the stage, five pure black Stanway top-level small-plus grand pianos were quietly placed there. The four outside, like stars arching the moon, surrounded the one in the middle, which looked slightly larger.

"These five pianos are all 4. However, the one in the center is specially made, slightly larger than the four outside. In addition, in terms of material selection, it is also the best. The handicraftsman who made him are all the most experienced old technicians. It can be said that this is the best and best piano in this exhibition hall. We named it the Light of Art." At this point, the tour guide paused, and saw that everyone's eyes were focused on the piano in the center, and then continued: "It is worth mentioning that this Light of Art will become the prize for the champion of this Masters Cup. At that time, it will be awarded to the championship of the competition with the Stanway Artist trophy."

As soon as these words were said, even though many pianists had rich experience, they couldn't help but feel excited.

As pianists, they know the value of the Light of Art than anyone else. You must know that the Stanway piano that can be named is all collection-level fine products. Knife 4 is originally the top model of the Stanway piano. Based on this model, the value of the Light of Art is probably more than one million US dollars!

Lu Wei also showed a look of desire in his eyes. Looking at the row of smooth piano keys, he really wanted to go forward and play.

However, the commentator's words made him feel a little discouraged.

"Due to the particularity of the light of art, this piano will not participate in the audition today. It will only appear on the final stage. In the preliminaries before this, you will only use these ordinary additions on the periphery. Please forgive me." It was said that it was forgiveness. There was no room for negotiation in your tone.

"The light of art is a good thing at first glance." Lang Lang said with some envy, with unconcealed desire in his eyes. This look directly revealed his inner thoughts. Win the championship and own it.

"If I could get it, just like Horowitz did, run around the world."

Lang Lang said softly, as if he was talking to the people around him, as if he was talking to himself.

"No. You won't get him, he's mine." A familiar English sounded.

"Valodos?" Lu Wei and Langlang said this name at the same time.

"Hello Lu Wei, long time no see you. The last time you were at my concert, your performance was really unforgettable." Valodos greeted Lu Wei enthusiastically as if he had seen an old friend.

"You have won Mr. Valodos, and your performance is also excellent." Lu Wei smiled politely.

"Mr. Valodos, you said. The light of victory is yours. Are you so confident to win the game?" Somehow, although Valodos's words were a bit joking, Lang Lang felt a little uncomfortable when he heard it.

"Haha, Mr. Langlang, I have heard your performance. It's very good. Maybe in a few years, your level will surpass me. But unfortunately, it's not now. The light of art is mine." Valodos said, and greeted the two of them with a smile, turned around and left.

“He is so arrogant.

."Lang Lang smiled and shook his head, obviously not taking his words seriously.

"Perhaps, he really has some methods. "Lu Wei didn't think so. He had contacted Valodos and naturally knew him better. Although Valodos's motivation was a bit impure when he invited him to the concert, he looked a little impure, but from his performance, Valodos was not an arrogant person. Since he said that today and looked very confident, he probably had a breakthrough in some aspects in the near future.

Seeing that several pianists had already gone to the staff to apply for an audition, Valodos slowly left the exhibition hall alone. The audition time was not the only afternoon, and there was still one day tomorrow. It was not a good idea to expose his strength too early at this time.

Leaving the development hall, Valodos turned around and looked inside through the wide glass window. Although there were many people, he just looked in the direction of Lu Wei and Langlang. Then, a meaningful smile appeared on his lips.

"Langlang, Lu Wei, during the game, I will give you a surprise."

"How to throw it to try the feel?" Seeing that many pianists had signed up with the staff, Lu Wei couldn't help asking Kong Xiangdong.

"Don't worry, the genius will start after the official competition. There is time to try tomorrow. Don't expose your characteristics too early now. This is beneficial to the game." Before Kong Xiangdong said it, Zhao Yiming said it first.

"After all, he is a person who has been in the government organs for a long time. When encountering something, he thinks of low-key and hiding himself." Although Lu Wei didn't say anything, he thought to himself in his heart. In fact, the rebirth of the academic reproduction of the audition in Chapter 622 of the Directory of Chapter 622, Peng Ming naturally wanted to ask for his thoughts, but he didn't think so seriously. "Haha, Secretary Zhao is right, you are seed players, and you should indeed preserve your strength. In this way, I will register, first try out several pianos, and then tell my husband's feel and precautions." Chen Sa said with a smile.

"No, Sister Chen, don't say that. Everyone is a seed player. How can you just try the piano alone? It doesn't matter if you play it casually. It's not a formal competition. No one will play it too seriously. It's just a practice, and the impact is not great." Lu Wei said quickly, and the others also agreed.

Zhao Yiming didn't say anything. Obviously he agreed with Chen Sa's idea, but in front of so many people, he naturally said this without saying it.

"Haha, don't argue, everyone will try the same, let me go, and you can try again tomorrow when there are too few people." Chen Sa said, without waiting for everyone to say anything, he walked over first.

After a while, the pianists participating in the audition had already registered one after another and, led by the staff, walked to the booth in order.

Lu Wei looked at the people who walked onto the stage, about twenty or thirty. Most of them didn't know each other. There were nearly seven pianists participating in the competition. When others saw someone trying the piano, they all gathered next to the exhibition hall and wanted to take a look. Even if they didn't play it, they could basically judge some of the characteristics of the piano by listening to the tone of the piano.

The first pianist, led by the staff, walked towards a piano on the periphery.

"Watts, look at you, and learn about the characteristics of the piano, especially the static damping force and key stroke. Thank you for your hard work." A big nose "Uncle Sam said to a thin pianist with thick brown curly hair.

"I know Browning, it's just an audition, not a formal competition, so don't be so nervous." The pianist named Watts said to the American who looked slightly taller than him, who looked like the leader.

Then, Watts sorted out his clothes and walked onto the booth easily with elegant steps. Although it was just a simple booth, after walking a few steps, St. He showed Watts's demeanor. When he sat in front of the piano, his relaxed and natural expression was definitely not done. Without countless stage experience, he would never be able to do this.

Lifting his hands casually, Watts played the Stanway under the gaze of dozens of world-class pianists and staff of the Stanway Piano Factory.

A chronometer like a stream of water sounded. Wa Jiang first started from the lowest notes of the piano in the second group of everyone, that is, the piano, and continued to move up with his right hand, playing all the eighty-eight kilogram keys, and then played them backwards again.

This kind of chromatic exercise is too common for many pianists present. You can play smoothly with your eyes closed. Although Watts plays as smooth as a forge and has a very uniform strength, it is not surprising in the eyes of many pianists. If you don’t have any basic skills, you will not receive an invitation from Stanway.

What they pay more attention to is their understanding of the piano tone. Although they do not play directly, they can also roughly understand the characteristics of this piano through listening and distinguishing the tone.

"The tone is very bright and the sound area is very unified. It should be more suitable for playing modern works. Just after listening to this scale, Lu Wei said this sentence softly.

"Well, the bass part is thick and full. The treble part is very transparent. When playing this piano, the strength control should be slightly lighter. Lang Lang added.

"Yes, if you play Mozart's works, it's best not to use this piano, as the strength will be difficult to control." This is Li Yundi's voice.

"It's suitable for playing Beethoven and Chopin, the pedals should not be too deep." Kong Yangdong thought for a while, and Zhao Yiming didn't say anything. To be honest, he was really not very clear about these things that were too professional. However, by just listening to this short piece of music, he could hear so many tricks. He nodded secretly to these pianists, and his confidence became a little stronger.

Watts's performance continued, this time, he played the arpeggio.

I casually walked a few big three and small threes, big seven and small seven arpeggios, and the same mature techniques. Everyone nodded secretly. Compared to the scales, the arpeggios naturally have more singing skills. Such an audition can further understand the piano's key sense, but unfortunately, this feeling. It's only because Watts himself knows that others cannot make intuitive judgments through playing.

Afterwards, Watts played several more Hannon exercises. From single notes, double notes to chords, from sequential notes to pause notes, jump notes, from strong to weak notes, and almost all the basic piano playing methods were tried. However, he never played a complete song.
