The atmosphere of on-site request for interaction was extremely enthusiastic.
Yang Jiansen looked around and saw that a lot of people raised their hands. Li Jing next to him and Hao Jialing on the other side both raised their snow-white hands, wanting to be called by Wang Qian to interact.
Yang Jiansen originally wanted to ask Li Jing to put her hand down, but when he saw so many people raising their hands, Li Jing wouldn't be a big difference, so he immediately remained silent and looked at Wang Qian, waiting to see how Wang Qian would handle the situation.
In this kind of open class, interaction itself is the most attractive part.
Wang Qian took the microphone and said with a smile: "Originally, I wanted to talk about my experience in playing these four pieces and some key points step by step. However, it seems that everyone has practiced for a long time, and perhaps they feel that they have mastered it and don't need me to explain it."
The hands at the scene were still raised.
Wang Qian's eyes passed over Hao Jialing, Li Jing and others in the first row, then looked at Wang Jingshan and others in the second row. Finally, he selected a young man in the third row, pointed with his hand, and said, "Okay, sir, you go ahead."
The man was also wearing a casual suit and had a fair complexion. He stood up, looked at Wang Qian and said, "Hello, Professor Wang. I am also a professor at the Magic Sound Piano Department. My name is Yu Zhongya. I graduated from the New England Conservatory of Music."
Wang Qian raised his eyebrows.
This is another music school ranked in the top ten in the world.
As the first international metropolis in China, Shanghai has a good ability to attract talents.
Some people at the scene looked at Yu Zhongya curiously. Those who knew him knew that he must be no ordinary person. He graduated from a world-class university and was a professor of magic sound at a young age.
Wang Qian looked at the other person and said softly, "Hello, Professor Yu, what can I teach you?"
Yu Zhongya said hurriedly, "I don't deserve your advice, Professor Wang, you are too kind. I missed your first performance at Magic Sound, which is a pity. I heard that you said at the time that you had never practiced the world-famous etudes and world-class masterpieces, and that you practiced and studied the piano on your own, which led to your current piano playing skills and achievements, right?"
Yu Zhongya looked at Wang Qian.
The scene quickly became quiet.
Many people know this after listening to Yu Zhongya’s words.
This person may have bad intentions.
Yang Jiansen in the front row looked back at Yu Zhongya and winked, but was ignored by the other party.
Li Jing looked at Yang Jiansen with a smile, and the meaning was self-evident: You see, I didn’t ask, but someone else did!
Qin Xuerong didn't even look at Yu Zhongya, but just looked at Wang Qian. At this moment, there was only Wang Qian in her eyes.
Ru Ke, who was sitting in the back area, asked Jiang Yu curiously, "Jiang Jiang, is it true that Wang Qian can't play other people's songs?"
This is something many people are curious to know.
Wang Qian, you really can’t sing any of other people’s songs
So how did he become the world-class master performer he is today
Just play your own music
That's not something that can be achieved with just one or two songs.
A pianist needs decades of practice, practicing songs of various rhythms and songs of various emotions, before he can master the playing methods and rhythms of various songs. No matter what song he can play, he can do it with ease and at a very high level!
otherwise!
You can't become a piano master just by practicing a few pieces.
Everyone agrees that the four pieces Wang Qian has released are absolutely and indisputably excellent works, and have the potential to become world-famous songs.
However, it is absolutely impossible to become a piano master just by practicing these four pieces!
The range represented by these four pieces is too narrow.
No matter how talented one is, it is impossible to become a piano master just by playing these four pieces.
Jiang Yu glanced at Ru Ke and answered softly, "I don't know, but so far, I have never seen him play anyone else's music, not just piano music, he has never played any music at all. I have only seen him play his own music, and he only sings his own songs, not other people's songs."
Murong Yue also nodded in agreement: "Yes, I can also testify to this. In terms of genius, I would like to call him the strongest genius in the world."
Ru Ke and Yang Zixuan looked at each other and saw shock and disbelief in the eyes of the others.
They all thought that Wang Qian said that just to suit the situation or just to pretend, and that he said it on purpose to suppress the momentum of Curtis and Berklee College of Music.
They won't take it seriously.
Because they are all doctoral graduates from the Central Conservatory of Music and professionals in the industry, so they think that it is impossible.
And this idea is not only shared by them, many teachers and students at domestic music colleges also think it is impossible.
so.
At this moment, in such a public occasion, Yu Zhongya asked a question that many people present wanted to know the answer to.
Facing the thousands of eyes eager to know the answer, Wang Qian nodded calmly and replied, "Yes."
Crash...
There was immediately a lively discussion at the scene.
“It’s actually true!”
"Will Professor Wang lie?"
"I can't believe it, it's incredible."
"I think Professor Wang might be lying..."
"If it's true, then what's the point of our more than ten years of study and practice?"
"Of course it is meaningful. Without more than ten years of hard study and practice, how could you be where you are today? Don't compare yourself to Professor Wang. There is only one Professor Wang in the world. There is no comparison."
"I hope that's not true."
"Even if it's not true, Professor Wang didn't attend any music school, and he became a master just by practicing on his own, which is already amazing."
"Why?"
…
Many people whispered a few words.
Obviously, everyone was shocked by this answer.
Moreover, most people still don’t believe Wang Qian’s answer.
Common sense tells them that that is impossible.
Yu Zhongya also quickly asked: "Professor Wang, if it is true. How do you manage to practice piano skills comprehensively? Or are you only able to play these four pieces so perfectly? Why don't you practice other piano pieces?"
Three questions of the soul.
The whole place quickly fell silent again.
Everyone stared at Wang Qian with wide eyes.
Qin Xuerong looked a little worried. He turned around and looked at Yu Zhongya hatefully. He kept this person in mind and decided to make him sad if he had the chance in the future.
Yang Jiansen whispered, "Zhongya's questions are too much. There is no need to dig into some things. Professor Wang's ability level is there, and that's enough."
Li Jing said softly, "Director Yang, I think it's better to clarify some issues. We are still in China now. Even if there is any embarrassment, it is within our circle of friends. If Professor Wang encounters such difficult questions abroad in the future, he has no experience in dealing with them. Wouldn't he be embarrassed in front of the whole world?"
Yang Jiansen shook his head and said nothing.
Although, he also agreed with Li Jing's words in his heart.
It is better to embarrass yourself at home than to embarrass yourself internationally…
The words may be rough, but the truth is there.
However, he still didn't want anything unexpected to happen to Wang Qian's reputation.
Because he has already placed his bets on Wang Qian.
Hao Jialing whispered, "Professor Li, I think that even if Professor Wang can only perform his four pieces so perfectly, it is still amazing enough and enough to occupy a place in the world. Those world-class masters only have a few perfect masterpieces and cannot play all their pieces impeccably."
Li Jing glanced at Hao Jialing and said calmly, "What you said makes sense!"
Then, she stopped talking to Hao Jialing and stared at Wang Qian, wanting to see how Wang Qian would answer.
or…
There is no answer.
That would be equivalent to tearing off a layer of Wang Qian's outer coat in public and extinguishing a layer of his halo.
Wang Qian is no longer so dazzling in the field of piano.
This is definitely something that the young generation of domestic pianists such as Li Jing and Yu Zhongya would like to see.
In that way, she and young pianists like Yu Zhongya will have more opportunities to become famous.
otherwise!
They may all live under Wang Qian's shadow in the future.
Although Wang Qian is still considered a famous pianist and composer in China based on the four pieces he has released, he is not as dazzling as before.
Because he is no longer perfect!
Wang Qian still faced thousands of eyes calmly. Seeing Qin Xuerong's worried look, he still smiled confidently. Then he looked at Yu Zhongya and said softly, "Professor Yu, this is a very good question. A pianist needs to develop in an all-round way and needs to practice various etudes persistently to achieve success. I have indeed not practiced other people's music, but I have my own etudes."
"As I said before, the songs I published are all my own exercises. I have also tried to practice songs of various rhythmic difficulty, but I have not published these songs yet. Because most of them are just some practice fragments, not enough to become a song. I am still sorting them out, and when they are gradually sorted out in the future, I may publish them for everyone to listen to."
The whole place became even quieter than before.
Everyone stared at Wang Qian with wide eyes.
Obviously.
Everyone was stunned by his answer.
Have you written your own etudes of various difficulty levels
this…
Is it possible
Everyone in the music field immediately shook their heads, saying this was impossible.
The various etudes used in major music conservatories today have been written and accumulated by generations of master composers over hundreds of years.
No one master composer can write etudes covering all levels of difficulty.
That's equivalent to forming a system of its own!
There has never been such an awesome person in the history of music in this world.
After being shocked, Ru Ke whispered to Jiang Yu, "Do you know? Have you ever heard him play other etudes?"
Jiang Yu shook his head and lowered his voice: "I haven't heard it. We work together and are usually busy practicing the songs he gave us. I have never seen him practice the piano privately, let alone heard him play other exercises."
Murong Yue whispered, "When he was working with us, he hardly practiced the piano. Many people have advised him to focus on the piano. But he said that piano is just a small hobby of his, not everything! He doesn't take the piano seriously at ordinary times."
After hearing this, Ru Ke and the others looked at each other again, and were indirectly Versailles again!
What you have worked hard for your whole life but have not achieved is just a small hobby that others can easily do...
later.
Yu Jingruo also asked Li Qingyao about Wang Qian for the first time: "Qingyao, you have been with Wang Qian for so many years. Have you ever seen him practice piano and calligraphy?"
Both of them knew Wang Qian during college. At that time, Wang Qian was very talented and capable in the field of acting and was a potential good actor.
So, at that time, they didn’t know what other talents Wang Qian had.
Later, Wang Qian married Li Qingyao.
Yu Jingruo left.
Therefore, Yu Jingruo wanted to know more about Wang Qian's life at this moment, so he asked Li Qingyao without hesitation.
Li Qingyao still wore a mask. She glanced at Yu Jingruo and felt a little ashamed when she saw his pure eyes. She said softly, "I haven't seen him. He and I were only together for two or three years. After that, I was busy with work and didn't have time to care about him."
Yu Jingruo nodded and asked softly, "Do you feel sorry? Do you regret it?"
Li Qingyao looked at Yu Jingruo again with disgust in her eyes. She hated being asked these questions.
However, when she saw Yu Jingruo's still pure eyes, as if he was not in touch with the world, the disgust in her heart gradually dissipated, and she said lightly: "A little bit!"
Yu Jingruo still nodded and stopped asking questions. She could feel that Li Qingyao didn't like this kind of questions.
The conversation between the two ended there.
Both of them focused their gazes on the podium again, looking at the person in Central Asia with some unfriendly eyes.
Yu Zhongya was also somewhat shocked by Wang Qian's answer for a few seconds, but he quickly came to his senses and did not sit down. He asked again: "Professor Wang, you are saying that even if you don't systematically practice other piano exercises, you only need to practice the exercises you wrote yourself, which is enough to master all the piano playing skills, right?"
This question.
Still sharp!
It can also be said to be provoking trouble!
Can you do it all yourself
Everyone's eyes were fixed on Wang Qian, reluctant to look away.
Because this is a scene that no one could have imagined.
For today's class, Yang Jiansen, director of the Magic Sound Piano Department, personally went to the train station to pick up Wang Qian.
So, why would the people from Mo Yin make things so difficult for Wang Qian
This painting style is obviously not harmonious.
Many people couldn't help but come up with conspiracy theories - did Moyin deliberately set a trap for Wang Qian
Did Moyin want to deliberately embarrass Wang Qian in public
How does this benefit Moyin
Many people don’t quite understand.
In fact.
Yang Jiansen is more anxious than anyone else now.
Because, if something like that really happened, Moyin would not benefit at all, and he, Yang Jiansen, might even be blamed for it.
If possible, he would go and deal with Yu Zhongya personally now.
However, he could not move and could only watch quietly, feeling extremely uncomfortable and tormented.
Wang Qian still had a smile on his face, although these questions seemed very sharp.
In fact, he had seen it all on the Internet.
He is so famous now that many people on the Internet have come to him to criticize him from various angles and fields...
It's just that he didn't answer and didn't pay any attention.
However, he was mentally prepared because he knew that he would face these problems sooner or later.
Now, this is the scene he had imagined.
He looked at Yu Zhongya and nodded: "Professor Yu is right, this is the fact. Professor Yu, do you have any questions?"
Yu Zhongya's body tensed up nervously. He didn't expect Wang Qian to answer his prepared question like this, without any denial.
Admitted it, and still insisted!
Then, he didn't hesitate and said loudly again: "Then, Professor Wang, among the four etudes you have released, there are no pieces that are too difficult. Can you show me the etudes you practice with difficult rhythms? I want to see what is the basis for you to achieve your current performance level. Maybe it will give me and all the teachers and students learning piano here some inspiration and help."
now.
The entire scene was so quiet that it was indescribable.
Even the students were silent.
Because they were afraid of missing something by speaking, and afraid of disturbing Wang Qian by speaking.
Everyone just stared at Wang Qian, waiting for his answer.
Of course, this is actually what many people at the scene are looking forward to!
Wang Qian gives lectures every time!
New works will be released!
Whether it is a new song or a new poem.
None of them were absent from Wang Qian's class.
Even during his last lecture at Zhejiang University, he directly published several poems, shocking the domestic literary world.
This class starts.
Many people are looking forward to whether Wang Qian will release new piano pieces
No one expected it.
It was actually in this form of coercion that Wang Qian was forced to publish his new work.
A difficult exercise
Or did you write it yourself
This is so embarrassing.
Wang Qian smiled again, looked from Yu Zhongya to everyone in the audience, and asked, "Do you want to listen too?"
Everyone quickly answered: “Yes!”
The students shouted at the top of their lungs, “We want to hear it!”
There was also anticipation in Yu Zhongya's eyes.
Although, he was deliberately making things difficult for Wang Qian.
But if he fails, he will be happy.
Because that would prove that Wang Qian's piano level was beyond his imagination, which would also be a gain for him.
Yu Zhongya sat down, and a young blond woman next to him said fluently in Chinese: "Senior, your question is too extreme."
Yu Zhongya smiled and said, "I pursue the truth and the essence of things. I don't bother to ask meaningless questions. Juliet, I said you would have a surprise when you come today. Did I not disappoint you?"
Juliet nodded: "It is indeed a surprise, but it is also a surprise you created artificially."
Yu Zhongya asked, "Oh? Aren't you surprised by the four songs Wang Qian played just now?"
Juliet: "His playing level is beyond my imagination, but I am also very proficient in playing these four pieces. It is not a surprise. He just gave me some inspiration, which I may use in my next concert. Now, your constant questioning has brought me surprises."
Yu Zhongya looked at Wang Qian: "Perhaps, it's not a surprise, but a shock!"
Juliet also stared at Wang Qian and said, "I'm looking forward to it."
The two stopped talking and looked at Wang Qian.
Juliet is also a student at the England Conservatoire, but she just graduated not long ago.
This time she came to Shanghai specifically to visit Yu Zhongya and inquire about the piano recital this senior was giving in Asia. Then today she was invited by Yu Zhongya to come to Shanghai to listen to Wang Qian's lecture.
Juliet is of British-Chinese descent. Her mother is Chinese and her father is a descendant of the royal family. She lived in the capital of China for a few years when she was a child and learned fluent Mandarin. She has been learning piano since she was a child and is gifted. She is a doctoral graduate from the England Conservatoire and wants to develop in the field of piano.
Because her mother died early, she had a bad relationship with her father. She refused to go to the Royal Academy of Music and chose the England Conservatoire instead.
Therefore, she plans to develop in Asia now, hold a few concerts in China to build her reputation, and then gradually go international and return to Europe to prove herself.
In the eyes of many music students from prestigious European and American universities, China is a region with relatively backward music and art, and is one of the novice villages where they go to fight monsters and level up.
Juliet had never expected to hear such a high level of piano performance at Magic Sound.
She couldn't find any faults in Wang Qian's four pieces of music just now, which reached perfection.
She has also been practicing these four pieces for the past month or so, and plans to play them in her first concert, adapting to the local customs.
Moreover, she personally likes these four songs very much.
However, she found that her performance was far from the level that Wang Qian had just achieved.
This made her decide to postpone the time of her concert and go back to study and think carefully about the feeling Wang Qian's performance just now gave her.
And at this moment.
Wang Qian turned around and walked towards the piano on the podium, saying, "In fact, there are traces to follow when practicing the piano. The music also has its own rules, which everyone should know. The so-called difficulty is nothing more than a faster rhythm and a larger span of notes. In order to increase the difficulty of practicing the piano, I thought of a way."
The scene returned to silence again.
No one spoke anymore.
No one raised their hand anymore.
Wang Qian continued: "I was in the countryside at the time, and life gave me inspiration. I saw a few children poking a hornet's nest and being chased by a swarm of bees, which gave me some ideas."
After saying.
Wang Qian put down the microphone and sat down in front of the piano.
Snap, snap, snap…
Warm applause.
Then it arose.
Everyone knows.
Wang Qian is about to start playing the music.
Obviously.
It certainly wasn’t the four pieces that were just played.
Then, it must be a new work.
Therefore, the applause was particularly enthusiastic.
There was surprise on everyone's face; this was the part they were most looking forward to.
While Yang Jiansen was clapping, he said to Li Jing: "You guys just like to stir up trouble! But..."
A barely perceptible smile appeared on Yang Jiansen's face.
Obviously, he liked this result.
Not at this!
This forced Wang Qian to write a new work.
Li Jing said softly, "I didn't cause any trouble. It was Yu Zhongya. Director Yang, go talk to Yu Zhongya, don't talk to me."
Ru Ke, Yang Zixuan, Jiang Yu and Murong Yue at the back were also clapping crazily.
Wang Qian sat in front of the piano. He didn't continue talking, nor did he look at anyone at the scene. He just closed his eyes gently, still brewing his emotions in his heart and creating a clear picture in his mind.
A swarm of wild bees are flying around like crazy!
Dense and fast, the buzzing sound fills my ears.
The applause gradually faded away.
The whole place returned to silence again.
Wang Qian suddenly stretched out his hands and pressed them on the piano.
The whole person became excited.
The ten fingers of both hands almost turned into phantoms on the piano keys, pressing the keys non-stop!
A burst of rapid and dense notes sounded.
Everyone was shocked.
because!
This is just the prelude.
Many people feel extremely nervous, as if something dangerous is chasing them.
A feeling of tension grows in my heart.
Everyone stared at Wang Qian without blinking, afraid that they would miss the wonderful moment in a blink.
Wang Qian's hands seemed to be attached to the piano keys, and his ten fingers seemed not to have moved.
but…
Everyone who heard the continuous notes knew that Wang Qian was playing the piano!
As the dense and rapid notes continued to enter everyone's ears.
Many people have an illusion.
seem.
It wasn't the piano that I heard.
Instead, it was a dense buzzing sound.
It was as if there were countless bees flying around my body.
Sun Jing, who was sitting next to Chen Xiaowen, looked back and forth several times, trying to see if there was a bee flying around his ear.
Chen Xiaowen held Sun Jing down and said softly, "Sister Sun, don't move!"
Sun Jing whispered, "Xiao Wen, did you hear that?"
Chen Xiaowen nodded: "That's the sound of Professor Wang's piano, not real bees!"
Sun Jing's eyes widened: "Piano sound?"
Chen Xiaowen: "Well, Professor Wang used dense piano sounds to simulate the sound of bees. This is the first time I have heard such piano skills. It is incredible."
Sun Jing was silent, then stared at Wang Qian on the podium.
…
Jiang Yu stared at Wang Qian without blinking, but the ten fingers of his hands were gently tapping on his legs, as if he was following the movement of Wang Qian's fingers, but he often paused, obviously unable to keep up with the rhythm. His eyes were full of disbelief and a hint of shock.
Ru Ke and Yang Zixuan, who were also top students who graduated from the Central Conservatory of Music, all had their eyes wide open at this moment, equally filled with shock.
The teachers and students of Mo Yin were also looking at Wang Qian quietly. Many of them had excited faces, and many of them had shocked eyes!
Juliet's eyes did not leave Wang Qian. She said to Yu Zhongya in a low voice, "Senior, this is indeed a surprise. I have never heard this piece of music before. This is also the first time I have heard such a vivid piece of music. Do you hear the bees flying?"
Yu Zhongya nodded: "I heard it!"
Juliet: "I really want to go on stage and play a song with him."
…
Wang Qian didn't care about what was happening in the outside world. He was completely immersed in the song.
The whole person's expression seems very excited, the emotions are extremely full, and the body is full of passion!
Everyone who just looked at him was infected.
Listening to the music, I was directly immersed in the scene.
Countless wild bees are flying over!
