Chapter 161 Youth group? Freshly released schedule
An office building in Shinjuku District, Tokyo.
In a clean and tidy office.
"Mr. Kobayashi, the schedule information sent by the organizing committee has been verified and translated. Do you need to send it to the musicians associations of various countries now?" In front of the desk, a girl in professional attire said respectfully to the old man in front of her.
"Sorry, Caizi." The old man's voice was gentle.
Caizi handed the list to Xiao Linzell and said again: "This is the list of special judges and orchestras drawn up by the association. Please take a look again."
Xiao Linzell scanned the list and saw that the name of the Yanjing Philharmonic Orchestra was already on it. He smiled and nodded, "No problem."
As the girl left, little Linzel stood up and came to the floor-to-ceiling window.
not far away.
A huge building complex in the shape of a vaulted pyramid full of modern design is bathed in the morning light.
Magnificent, exquisite and elegant.
Tokyo Opera Concert Hall, Japan's most prestigious classical music cultural exchange center.
On September 10, 1997, it opened with the premiere of J.S. Bach's "Matthew Passion" conducted by Linzer Jr., making it one of the most watched Asian concert halls in the world.
It is also the home of the Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra, and every year the world's leading orchestras visit and perform here.
As the main Asian venue for this international music competition commemorating the 250th anniversary of Mozart’s birth, it will once again assume an important mission.
As if looking at an old friend, little Linzel's eyes were filled with the same persistence and confidence on the podium.
"please."
....
On the same day, musicians associations from various Asian countries received the Mozart Competition regulations from the Japanese Musicians Association.
The official audition email channel for the Asian Division of the International Mozart Music Competition was also opened that night.
.......
At noon the next day.
Ink Garden, Room 206.
"Buzz-"
The cell phone on the piano vibrated.
Then the smooth flow of the #F major scale in the room followed the last two fingers of the performer.
Qin Jian retracted his hands. On the panel in front of him, the balance flow of his ten fingers had reached 38.3%.
"Not bad, it has risen by 10 points in the morning."
Nodding with satisfaction, Qin Jian took a sip of water.
Picked up the phone.
An email from Liao Linjun.
"Hey, I haven't seen Sister Lin Jun since the game."
Looking at Liao Linjun's name, Qin Jian thought of the finals and the scenes in the coffee table piano hall.
Click [Mail].
A title pops up.
[Mozart International Music Competition Regulations-Asia Division]
"Foreword, Vienna has a strong presence on the international art stage... This International Mozart Music Competition is an event that we value very much... for contestants from all over the world..."
The signature is "Karl Berger, President of the Vienna International Art Exchange Association".
The email has a total of twenty-five pages.
Qin Jian took a brief look at the previous introduction, and after basically understanding the situation of this competition, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Judging from the list of judges and co-organizers in each continental competition area, this competition must be huge.
In comparison, the size of Huayun Sai seems too thin.
Then scroll down.
The contestants are divided into four groups, namely the professional group, the open group, and the Mozart works group.
Each group is divided into youth group, teenager group and children group.
The individual competition items are divided into keyboard group, vocal group, string group, wind group and percussion group.
The competition items of the ensemble group are divided into piano four-hand ensemble group, orchestral ensemble group, and other instrument ensemble group.
Except there are no symphony or opera competitions.
This competition covers almost all musical categories of classical music.
Qin Jian was dazzled as he selected what he needed from the group information.
Sudden.
Qin Jian's eyes tightened.
"What the fuck..."
On the screen, Article 3 of the registration instructions for the participating categories.
[The age of the group is based on those who are one year old before March 15, 2014]
Qin Jian quickly turned it over.
"****."
Qin Jian didn't know whether to be happy or sad.
[Youth group 13-17 years old]
[Youth group 18-35 years old]
Two lines of eye-catching large characters seemed to hit his sensitive nerves.
That's right.
On February 22nd, Qin Jian will officially turn eighteen.
"What can I say..."
The youth group competition and the junior group competition are completely two worlds on the same stage.
After a brief sigh.
Qin Jian once again realized a serious problem and quickly turned to the ensemble group.
【Ensemble 15-35 years old】
"fine."
.......
Qin Jian continued to turn over the pages.
competition stage.
The first stage is the preliminary round (audition).
The second stage is the preliminary round.
The third stage, the finals.
In the first stage of the competition, the participating videos will be sent online to the official organizing committee of the competition area by email.
As an invited contestant, Qin Jian directly skipped the content information about the audition stage.
Continue to turn over.
[Instructions for participating tracks]
"Here comes the point."
【Professional piano group】
In the preliminary round, complete an etude and a sonata within thirty minutes.
In the final, complete an etude, a sonata, and a piece of your own choice within forty-five minutes.
[The preliminaries and finals cannot be repeated. Please see the appendix for the selection range]
...
...
【Mozart Works Group】
In the preliminary round, you will choose a Mozart sonata of your own choice, with a time limit of fifteen minutes.
In the final, you will choose a Mozart concerto of your own choice, with a time limit of thirty minutes.
...
After getting the information he needed, Qin Jian logged out of the mailbox.
"Two etudes, three complete sonatas, one complete concerto, and one work of your own choice."
"call."
Suddenly, Qin Jian felt a rush of pressure.
Just then, the phone rang again.
Liao Linjun’s phone number.
Qin Jian answered the phone, "Hello, Sister Lin Jun."
Liao Linjun's voice rang on the phone, "Have you read the email?"
"Looked at it."
"Okay, send me your competition track before the fifth day of the Lunar New Year."
"I understand, thank you Sister Lin Jun."
moment.
Liao Linjun's advice rang again on the phone, "Time is running out, so prepare well and come to Yanjing early after the Chinese New Year."
"good
...
After hanging up the phone, Qin Jian washed his face.
Sitting in front of the piano again.
Lost in thought.
Of the etudes, only Winter Wind is ready-made, and one piece is still missing.
There are two ready-made sonatas by Beethoven, but one Mozart is missing.
The concerto still lacks a Mozart.
There is also a piece of your own choice.
"..."
Qin Jian carefully calculated that he would have to practice at least four pieces before March 17th, including a complete sonata and a complete concerto.
Moreover, the existing Beethoven Sonata in F minor seems to be difficult enough to compete in such an international competition.
At this moment, Qin Jian once again felt troubled by his poor music library.
Participation in the professional group competition is compulsory.
As for the Mozart composition group, Qin Jian inexplicably felt that he was also obliged to participate.
