Below the stage.
The applause never stops!
Lin Yuan bowed and left the stage, walking behind the side curtain and leaving the finishing touches to the host.
However, the applause still lingers!
"Teacher Xianyu..."
Noticing that the applause showed no sign of stopping, the host couldn't help but speak.
Lin Yuan, who was about to leave the stage, paused slightly.
"The return signal."
Lu Sheng laughed: "At the first concert, the audience hoped that he would return. Today's concert was a real success!"
“It’s been a while since I’ve seen an encore performance.”
Zheng Jing also smiled slightly: "He will come back."
"I think so."
Yang Zhongming raised his eyebrows.
Encore performance, this is the unspoken rule of the Blue Star stage.
The so-called encore performance means that on the stage, if the audience's applause continues until the performer finishes the performance and leaves the stage, there is still no sign of stopping, that is the signal for the encore.
With this signal, Lin Yuan had two choices.
The first option is to just walk away, since the official performance is over anyway.
The second option is to politely walk back to the stage and give everyone an encore performance.
Such stage rules also exist in China.
However, in our great China, the term "encore" was first popular in the crosstalk circle, and was later adopted by other types of stages as a form of feedback to the audience.
And now.
Lin Yuan chose the latter.
He turned around and returned to the stage.
The host couldn't help but tease: "It seems that no one wants to go home, and Teacher Xianyu is also a little reluctant to leave, so let's continue to give the stage to Teacher Xianyu."
"Thanks."
Lin Yuan opened his mouth, but in his heart he was thinking about what to perform next
Of course Lin Yuan knew the unspoken rules of encore performances. At this time, he could usually choose to perform some of his more famous representative works, or play the song he had just performed again, and the audience would buy it.
But this is the Golden Hall.
Why not do something unexpected
Thinking of this, Lin Yuan simply sat back in front of the piano and said with a smile:
"Let's have something interesting. The next piece is called Flight of the Bumblebee. It will be a very special piano piece. Its biggest feature is that it is fast enough..."
Boom boom boom.
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Yuan's fingers began to fly on the black and white keys!
Typical A minor key.
A lively and interesting allegro!
The music begins with a rapidly descending chromatic scale, followed by a rolling up and down flow of sound!
Fly fly fly fly!
Those are flying fingers!
The dazzling playing speed, interpreting the gorgeous and rapid melody, makes the audience's adrenaline secrete rapidly. When hearing such music, the audience seems to feel the speed of the fingertips running and the fiery passion bursting out of the body and mind, as if every pulse in the body has a sense of rhythm!
Amid the passion, the surging heat is matched with the omnipresent sense of rhythm!
"Oh My God!"
"What a speed!"
"The piano keys are getting hot!"
“The legendary feeling of hot piano keys!”
"quick!"
“Too fast!”
“This is the ultimate showmanship!”
"No."
“More than just skills!”
"Imagine a battle scene like this, with wild bees flapping their wings and attacking their enemies!"
“So exciting!”
In less than a minute, Lin Yuan had finished playing.
However, the spirit of the whole audience was mobilized, and excitement was written all over the face of the audience!
Lin Yuan moved his five fingers slightly.
Still a little tired.
Fortunately, I have good skills.
You know, the song "Flight of the Bumblebee" that Lin Yuan just played is one of the fastest piano pieces in the world!
certainly.
This piece can be performed even faster on violin.
However, Lin Yuan's violin skills were not as good as his piano playing skills, so he was not chosen.
Off stage.
The applause rang out again, like a tide, but the faces of the audience were filled with a sense of wanting more!
"One more!"
"One more!"
"One more!"
I don’t know who shouted first, but countless audiences followed suit!
This moment.
All of Qu's fathers showed surprised expressions!
This is not a street performance, nor is it a bar performance...
This is a concert in the Golden Hall!
The world's most advanced stage!
Under such a stage.
It is almost impossible for the audience to shout "one more song" in unison.
The upper class has always been proud of their status and unwilling to lose their composure in public. Moreover, when it comes to music, apart from most of the pretentious people and professional music makers, how many people present can really understand it
However, today, such a scene actually happened!
It's like a miracle!
Lin Yuan knew that he couldn't avoid the next performance, so he simply raised his index finger to his lips.
Suddenly.
No matter if they were wealthy, second generation or Qu's fathers, the whole audience almost subconsciously fell silent.
And in this quietness.
Lin Yuan's hands reappeared on the black and white piano keys: "The song we're going to play this time is called "The Bell"."
Liszt's The Bells!
As a famous virtuoso and the nightmare of countless piano students, this piece of Liszt is even more difficult than "Flight of the Bumblebee"!
Piano solo, in G sharp minor, allegretto, 6/8 time.
Lin Yuan is playing.
The initial difficulty is not exaggerated.
However, as the music went on, the audience's expressions changed, and the song fathers widened their eyes in astonishment!
You know.
Most of the audience who come here, whether they understand music or not, have at least learned to play the piano.
Because they have studied, they have an idea of the approximate difficulty of playing a piece of music.
If the previous song "Flight of the Bumblebee" was simply fast, then this one is a bit outrageous!
Play with both hands alternately;
Rapid octave changes;
staccato with extremely large interval jumps;
The most outrageous part is when Lin Yuan plays four octaves with one hand in a fast jump.
Like the sound of a bell!
The variation technique brings out Lin Yuan's gorgeous playing skills and the effect of the bell sound to the fullest.
In front of the piano.
Lin Yuan closed his eyes and did not even look at the piano keys, but his performance was as smooth as water.
The passage repeats itself in many changes, like a variation or a rondo.
If someone was standing nearby and saw Lin Yuan's playing skills at this moment, they would definitely be dazzled!
Of course there was no one around him.
Everyone was in the audience, expressing the same shock and enjoyment.
…
Different textures and techniques are varied in various tonal ranges.
In the audience.
Yang Zhongming also closed his eyes, but his fingers were pulling something unconsciously.
"Staccato."
"Jumping bow."
"interesting."
Opening his eyes again, Yang Zhongming spoke softly.
Zheng Jing was a little surprised: "Aren't these violin playing techniques?"
Abigail looked at Lin Yuan on the stage deeply: "Yes, Xianyu is using the piano to imitate the violin. He is making unprecedented attempts on the piano, such as finger rolling on the same note, long strings of chromatic progressions, trills with one hand and melody part, continuous octave progressions and long-distance octave jumps with the left hand, etc. It's gorgeous."
Gorgeous but ok.
Yang Zhongming glanced at A Gai.
"Should I admire the excellence of this piece of music itself, or should I say that his technique is astonishing?"
Lu Sheng smiled bitterly.
Xianyu is truly a genius that makes people despair.
This performance has exceeded the capabilities of an average pianist.
Not to mention that the song itself has extremely high artistic value.
What
Is this an encore performance
What does your encore look like
It was clearly an entertainment segment, but this guy actually played it so hardcore!
beside.
Ye Zhiqiu looked strange:
"From the perspective of the exam, the bell is undoubtedly above level 10. The big jumps, the broken intervals of more than ten degrees, various octaves, chromatic scales, trills, and runs are all very difficult. Moreover, the length is not short, and a certain amount of endurance is required to complete them."
Yin Dong curled his lips:
"What kind of devil are you? Don't torture amateurs with such music. Let professional pianists have a headache instead."
…
Under normal circumstances, one encore show is enough.
Lin Yuan has performed two songs in a row, but the applause from the audience seems to be even louder than before!
There was even a look of madness on the audience’s faces!
"marvelous!"
"The song just now was called "The Bell"? "
"I really heard the sound of bells!"
"Is this an encore performance!?"
“It’s not inferior to the quality of the official performance at all!”
“Making a killing!”
"If he puts all these songs together, they would be enough for him to hold another concert!"
“It’s not over yet!”
"continue!"
"applaud!"
"Clap your hands for me!"
"We'll try to squeeze him dry in today's encore!"
Of course, there is no such thing as squeezing everything dry. As the saying goes, three times the limit.
Three encore performances are enough, if there are more, Lin Yuan will feel tired.
therefore.
Amid the applause that sounded like the waves of the sea, Lin Yuan still made an agreement in advance: "Next is the last song, let's play another instrument."
As he spoke, Lin Yuan found a classical guitar.
Everyone knows that Xianyu can play a variety of musical instruments.
Xianyu has representative works on many musical instruments.
For example, for piano, there are "Moonlight Sonata", "To Alice", "Wedding in a Dream" and so on.
For example, for violin, there are "Song of the Wanderer" and today's "Butterfly Lovers".
For example, the saxophone didn’t exist before, but it is here now, like today’s “Going Home”.
Another example is the Guzheng, which has masterpieces like "House of Flying Daggers".
There are also "Horse Racing" and "Erquan Yingyue" which he composed for erhu.
But among all the musical instruments, the guitar was missing.
Obviously, guitar is also a popular instrument and is used in almost all pop songs.
therefore.
Lin Yuan plans to add his representative guitar work.
"This song is called "The Romance of Love". I hope you like it."
After saying that.
The performance begins.
This song is widely circulated around the world and is part of the repertoire of all famous guitar players.
An immortal work of guitar music!
This is a work that almost everyone who learns guitar on earth cannot avoid!
Lin Yuan's fingers were sliding.
This is a typical single three-part form, in moderate tempo and 3/4 time.
Starting with a major chord, the melody progresses slowly in a descending scale.
The fourth section.
Go up an octave with the notes that make up the tonic chord.
The first climax is coming!
Between the melodies, Lin Yuan's fingers moved back and forth on the descending scale, as if exploring something.
Accompaniment.
harmony.
Full of brilliance.
exciting.
The end of the song.
Emotions tend to calm down.
It was like a lake blown by a breeze, rippling out and slowly moving away into the distance.
The beautiful and simple melody is completely integrated with the clear broken chords, full of the tenderness of entering the water.
The music ends in such a peaceful atmosphere.
But unlike before, the applause this time was not as intense.
But this doesn't mean that everyone doesn't like it.
Quite the opposite.
Precisely because they like it, the audience is reluctant to break the mood of this last song.
Even the applause was restrained with love.
“This is the last song.”
"We should be content. We have added three encore performances, all of which are new works. The quality is no less excellent than the previous official performances. There is no more sincere encore performance in the world."
"From today on, Xianyu is my favorite musician."
“Buy me tickets for tomorrow’s concert!”
"What job?"
“Work can be delayed, but the concert won’t wait for me!”
"Didn't they say that Xianyu will bring a symphony tomorrow?"
"I can't wait now!"
“So this is what it feels like to be someone’s fan?”
"Xianyu is the god of music!"
…
Someone was whispering.
Some people looked after the past.
Lin Yuan bowed formally and left.
This time, the applause was enthusiastic again, and everyone stood up to see him off!
Back row.
The fathers of Qu couldn't help but stand up.
“He deserves respect.”
“One of the youngest and best musicians of our time.”
"Interestingly, just now, he also had a representative work in the field of guitar."
"Yes, it's a great song called Romance of Love."
"No matter what instrument he plays, it won't surprise me."
"But his best skill is still the piano."
"So, the top music masters all have a musical instrument that they are extremely good at?"
"Xianyu is the piano, and Yang Zhongming is the violin?"
"If I remember correctly, Abigail played the saxophone very well."
"Look forward to tomorrow."
"I have a feeling that maybe tomorrow will be the time for the main course to be served!"
The audience is discussing.
Father Qu is discussing.
After Lin Yuan left the stage.
The host came on stage and arranged for the audience in the Golden Hall to leave.
The staff opened the door and led the way in an orderly manner.
However.
When the audience and Qu Dad walked out of the Golden Hall, the door was already surrounded by media from all continents of Blue Star!
Crackling.
Flash lights went off one after another!
"What do you think of Mr. Xianyu's concert?"
The impatient reporters asked impatient and completely unexpected questions.
This moment.
The Qu fathers looked at each other in bewilderment.
The audience smiled knowingly.
I already know how to answer.
"Today's Golden Hall is sparkling because of Xianyu's music; and tonight's starry sky is also dazzling because of Xianyu's music."
“He is the embodiment of art.”
“He is the god of music.”
"In my heart, he is greater than great."
"… "
As the reporter was interviewing, he suddenly felt something was wrong.
To be exact, something is very wrong!
Are these people drinking fake liquor in there
How come after listening to the concert, everyone seems to have turned into envious fanatics
Vaguely.
A veteran reporter present suddenly felt that this scene was somewhat familiar.
I remember that after Xianyu’s concert that year, the audience seemed to have a similar reaction.
That time, many people even fainted and were taken away by ambulances.
This time no one fainted.
But the performance of these people seems to be more exaggerated than someone fainting...
Xianyu is going to be praised to the sky by them!
What is the "God of Music"
What does "He is greater than great" mean
Even the 50 Cent Party members don’t dare to speak like this!
Not to mention that this group of people includes many top figures in various fields.
There are all kinds of people including world-famous wealthy people, top stars in the entertainment industry, old aristocrats in the upper class of Central Plains, and so on!
What made the old reporter feel even more strange was.
In addition to ordinary audiences, there seemed to be something wrong with Qu's father's interviews and speeches.
“We need to acknowledge that people are different.”
"The gap between Qu Dad and Qu Dad can be as huge as a chasm."
“In front of him, I feel like a student who has just started learning music.”
"Thinking about tomorrow's symphony, I'm so excited that I can't sleep. I don't know what kind of miracle Xianyu will bring."
Okay.
Fish blowing per capita
Are professional players no exception
…
Fortunately, big guys like Yang Zhongming are still relatively normal.
Facing the interview with the reporter, Yang Zhongming smiled and said:
“This concert will still move people no matter how many years later when they look back on it.”
Abigail said:
"I saw a genius letting loose on the stage. His talent was so willful that he could squander it at will. You could never see the limits of this young man."
Zheng Jing was even more straightforward:
"We are a bunch of crazy people who have high expectations for his symphony after listening to today's concert. We are just waiting to see if he can lead these people to go crazy tomorrow."
Yes.
Today is crazy;
But more people are looking forward to whether tomorrow can be even crazier.
certainly.
The night is long.
Not to mention what happens tomorrow, tonight’s surprise alone is enough for the whole world to slowly digest.
