Chapter 674 Do your best!

200014838 Chapter 674 Everyone puts their best efforts!

Liuyan's expression is focused and quiet. The ten fingers are rhythmically undulating on the keys. "" is an English folk song, which has been widely circulated in the era of Queen Elizabeth. It is said that it was written by Emperor Henry VIII. The melody of this folk song is very classic and elegant. It is a song describing sadness about love, but its favorite aspect is not limited to the field of love. Some people changed it to lyrics, and some people used it as a Christmas song. There are countless versions of it being adapted into instrumental music, including sketches, chamber music, and orchestral music. However, it is the first time that it has been adapted into a polyphonic piano piece. After this work was adapted by Kayan, the original simple melody became much more difficult. It largely reproduced the original melody with a bit of folk color, which attracted the attention of the audience and judges from the beginning.

"This song is good, and can adapt a simple folk song into such an exquisite polyphonic work. What's even more rare is that it still retains the original essence. It seems that Kayan has put a lot of effort into it." Listening to this song, Judge Zhou Guangren thought to himself, and looked at the judge Istoming next to her. Zhou Guangren found that his eyes also showed a very satisfied expression.

"This song "Green Sleeve" has largely retained the characteristics of the original song, and the polyphonic techniques are used just right, and the harmony of several places is just right. This is a rare fine song." Istomin sighed in his heart as he looked at Kayan's performance.

The other judges, especially those in Europe and the United States, showed satisfaction on their faces. They have been listening to this famous ancient British folk song since they were young and are naturally familiar with it. Because of this, they all have a bright feeling of how well Kayan adapted this folk song so well.

"This Kayan is not simple. He didn't show much excellence in the preliminary and semi-finals. He didn't expect that he, who was the first to play today, produced such an excellent adaptation. It seems that he has retained his strength." Looking at Kayan playing on the stage, Lang Lang thought to himself that before, he only regarded Kissin, Lu Wei and Valodos as the biggest obstacle to his winning championship, but now it seems that every player who has reached the final is not simple.

I looked at the contestants next to him. There was nothing strange on their faces, but Lang Lang knew that their feelings were probably the same as those of them at this moment.

"Haha, this kind of competition is interesting. In the previous preliminaries and rematches, these real experts were unwilling to show their true strength. They were not considered a competition at all. At best, they were just testing each other. This game was really a real confrontation." Looking at Kayan's performance, Lu Wei said with some emotion. He knew that from now on, everyone will do their best, naturally, including himself.

The sequence number Lu Wei drew today is No. 8. According to traditional Chinese habits, this is a very good number. However, if you consider the one in front of him, there are probably not many players present who like to ask for this number, because No. 7 is Kissin!

Looking at Lang Lang, Kissin, Lu Wei and Valodos, who occasionally looked at each other, Kong Xiangdong, who was sitting next to Lu Wei, couldn't help but feel a little emotional. When he arrived on this stage, he realized that he was not the best in the world's piano music scene. Compared with these four kilograms, he was still a little worse. Although he also entered the finals, Kong Xiangdong knew very well that compared with these four people, he had no chance, because, in order to enter the finals, Kong Xiangdong had already devoted all his strength, and it was obvious that these four people still retained a lot! That was not a competition at the same level!

Amid the cheers of the audience, Kayan walked off the stage with a smile on his face. The score of the open mouth was higher than his rematch score. Kayan was still very satisfied with such a result.

Watching Kayan walk off the stage, Kong Xiangdong stood up. Under the gaze of all the contestants, he patted Lu Wei beside him and said with a smile: Boy, I'll go up first, teacher!"

"Teacher, come on!" Lu Wei also patted Kong Xiangdong twice, with an encouraging look on his face.

"Haha, let me, the old man, be a person who can attract you." Kong Xiangdong said this with a hearty smile and strode to the stage.

This sentence is said in Chinese, so except for Lu Wei and Lang Lang, and Sun Yingdi, no one else understood what was going on. However, these people knew very well. Kong Xiangdong said this to cheer them up and reduce their pressure. For a moment, his favor for Kong Xiangdong increased significantly in the hearts of several people.

When he came to the "Light of Art", Kong Xiangdong sat down and felt the luxury and elegance of this top piano. The impulse to play naturally surged from the depths of his heart.

The hands fell gently on the keys, and a melodious sound of the piano suddenly came to life, which was Tchaikovsky's "June Boat Song"

Judging this song from the height of the Masters Cup final, the difficulty is quite high. But only Lu Wei knows that these are the works of "Wild" Ding Wolfsky, which is best at. Kong Xiangdong is definitely the top in the world!

The hands gently undulate on the keys. The rich Russian melody sounded leisurely, and the sound of the piano seemed to tell people an ancient and distant story.

Kong Xiangdong's eyes seemed to be open and closed, and the expression on his face was leisurely and focused. At this moment, his whole body and mind were already immersed in the music.

"He could actually play "June Ship Song" so profoundly, it was him before." The one who exclaimed in his heart was the piano master Kissing! As a Russian pianist, Kissing is best at the work of Tchaikovsky, a famous composer in his country. Kissing has listened to "Six Ship Song" countless times, played countless times, but what he appreciated the most was Rubinstein's version. This cut, listening to Kong Xiangdong's Rubinstein-style performance, Kissing couldn't help but exclaim. At the same time, he began to pay attention to this pianist who had never paid much attention to the preliminary and semi-finals.

The sound of the piano is like a mysterious river. It is peaceful and leisurely. Listening to the sound of the piano, people can hear the mellow smell of vodka and the dusk of the Volga River that seems to cross a layer of golden light. Kong Xiangdong's expression on his face is pious and focused. It seems that he is using the piano keys in his hand to tell people an ancient story.

More than 10,000 audiences listened quietly. Among them, there were many music fans who had heard this work many times, but never once. This work gave them such a deep feeling. Such a pianist from China perfectly interpreted the essence of this classic Russian music to them. This is really amazing!

On the other side of the ocean, thousands of miles away, in the family building of the Central Conservatory of Music, Wei Xiaofan was in his room. Watching the finals of the Masters Cup, watching Kong Yangdong's pound, and playing the old friends over the years, he kept nodding and muttering to himself:

"Old Kong is not bad. I didn't expect that he could have such a feeling. He has been with him for so many years and has not been in the same state as he is today. Alas, it's a pity that there are too many masters in the Masters Cup. Even at this level, I'm afraid the champion will still be out of the way."

Speaking of this, Wei Xiaofan smiled again.

"I wonder how Lu Weina is? It's time to show his true strength when it's time to play. Oh. I haven't heard of his Beethoven for a long time. I really miss him. I don't know what song he would choose, but he should use Beethoven," Wei Xiaofan said, with a look of fascination on his face, and he felt a little distracted.

In five minutes and ten seconds, Kong Xiangdong ended his first work, which can be seen from the expression on his face. He was very satisfied with his performance just now.

"This art light is really not something that can be covered. The feel is so good. Oh, I really hope Lu Wei can win it back so that he can play it every day." Kong Xiangdong couldn't put it down and caressed the wonderful touch he brought to him when he was playing it just now.

After a moment of filming, Kong Xiangdong began to play his second song.

Liszt's "Hero"!

This is another super skill song. It seems that in the finals, almost every contestant chose Liszt in the etude. The super skill etude is so famous that when they started to choose, these contestants discovered that they could not find an etude that could be compared with super skill.

The etude "Hero" is the dagger of the etude of Liszt's super skill. This piece is known for its rapid movement and powerful chords. Its difficulty among the twelve super skills is also among the top five!

"Dongdong". Two heavy chords sounded. The sensitive bonding feeling of "The Light of Art" perfectly reflected the instant explosive power of Kong Xiangdong's powerful chord. Then, a series of sound streams that rolled like broken beads flowed out seamlessly with the alternating cooperation of left and right hands!

The hands quickly moved on the keys, and the big jumps of more than ten or even twenty degrees were common, with strange chords and melodies. Everything was showing the extraordinaryness of this etude. However, Kong Xiangdong's expression was always calm, and his strength was fully displayed in this friend!

"Haha, it turns out that Teacher Kong's super skill is good. Don't think that he doesn't play much normally, he really won't lose his tracks when he is on the court.

Looking at Kong Xiangdong's super skills, Lu Wei knew that he had a deep attainment in this area. Even if he was allowed to play this song "Hero", he probably only ends with this skill.
