The long chime in the concert hall fell and the hall became quiet.
Eight o'clock sharp.
Qin Jian took a deep breath, shook his shoulders, then opened the door and walked towards the stage.
As he appeared, warm applause erupted from the stage.
The Nanyin Concert Hall is not big. Standing in the center of the stage, Qin Jian immediately saw his parents and family sitting in the middle, as well as Ye Yi and Ye Taotao sitting next to them.
Qin Jian bowed slightly to the audience.
Then he came to the piano and put the microphone in his hand at his feet.
He sat down straight.
He Jing's first solo concert in her life.
It will be him who opens the show.
‘Pathetque:2.Adagio tabile’
Beethoven Piano Sonata No. 8.
Pathétique, second movement.
Cantabile Adagio.
Raise your hand, lower your finger.
The flowing hands and fingers carry a bright A major melody, like a lyrical song without words, slowly coming out.
Warm and pious.
In just a few short sections, there was no more noise in the entire hall.
Pure Steinway hammers shine clearly on every note.
....
In the process of deciding on the opening song, Qin Jian thought for a whole day, not only not to steal the spotlight from the protagonist, but also to create the best atmosphere of the concert through the opening.
After repeated deliberation, he finally decided on the quiet and peaceful second movement of Pathetic. Moreover, in terms of both performance technique and repertoire understanding, Pathetic is his specialty.
....
"Uncle Qin Jian plays well."
Eight rows of twelve seats, Ye Taotao whispered.
Although the child's voice was not loud, it was still heard by Qin Gang sitting on the right.
Qin Gang turned his head when he heard the sound, and Ye Taotao was so frightened that he quickly covered his mouth with his hands and turned his body to his sister on the left.
Ye Yi quickly apologized to Qin Gang in sign language, and then gave Ye Taotao a reproachful look.
Ye Taotao pursed his lips and lowered his head as if he knew he had made a mistake.
Ye Yi's unconscious sign language movements made Qin Gang startled. This girl didn't seem to be able to speak.
This made him even more embarrassed, "It's okay, it's okay."
He just heard the child beside him mention the name 'Qin Jian' and glanced at it subconsciously, without any other meaning.
And Ye Yi's eyes suddenly focused on Qin Gang's face.
In such a small space, I fell into embarrassment.
moment
"Ahem, are you Qin Jian's friend?" Qin Gang asked in a low voice.
When Qin Gang asked, Ye Yi came back to his senses, became inexplicably nervous, and then nodded.
"Oh, hello," Qin Gang nodded politely, "I am Qin Jian's father."
really.
Ye Yi became even more nervous now, and for a moment he didn't know how to express himself. His little face turned red.
Although she knew that it was almost impossible for the other party to understand sign language, she still respectfully signed "Hello".
And just then.
The last bright chord symbolizing hope fell gently in the hall.
The stage fell silent.
The next second.
Applause erupted slowly from the audience.
It sounded slowly.
No one wants to break the sense of peace and tranquility left by the music.
As the applause fell, a piece of lyrical and pleasant light music sounded from the speakers in the hall,
The volume is just right.
...
"Hello everyone."
"Welcome everyone to come tonight."
Along with the music, Qin Jian stood up with the microphone and came to the center of the stage and bowed to the audience again.
"I am the host of tonight's concert, but in the program list in your hands, I should be the guest."
"Yes, I am also a guest, and I am a special guest."
The audience burst into laughter and applause.
Qin Jian put down the microphone and smiled until the audience became quiet again.
"The protagonist of tonight's concert is my teacher, my role model, and my sister."
"to be honest."
"This concert came out of the blue, and she only learned four days ago that she was going to hold this concert on this stage.
"So hers was in a hurry."
"It was only last night that she decided to finalize the final program for this concert."
Qin Jian paused and took a few steps back and forth on the stage.
"Um."
"But I dare say that every piece of music tonight was carefully selected by her."
"Please trust me."
"This concert will definitely leave you with a wonderful memory."
"Thanks."
The audience applauded again.
"Tonight's concert is very important to her. It is the first concert in her life."
"She has always seemed a very calm person. In my impression, ever since she was a child, she has always looked confident about what she wants to do."
Qin Jian said and smiled.
"result."
"Just now backstage, she asked me, Qin Jian, I'm a little nervous, what should I do?'"
"I thought about it, and without saying anything I picked up the microphone and hurried on stage."
"Because her questions made me nervous too."
The audience laughed again.
"Hopefully she's adjusted backstage now, because after this concert, she's going abroad."
"What I want to say about this is, my dear sister, there may be more handsome hosts abroad than me, but there are no hosts as dedicated as me -"
"Let's buy you some time to adjust your mentality."
"The above is my opening speech."
"thank you all."
Qin Jian bowed again.
As the applause fell again.
“Finally, let’s talk about three points about on-site order.”
"First, I hope everyone keeps their communication devices muted. Our performers on stage are more afraid of sudden phone calls from off stage."
Many people in the audience took out their mobile phones and started adjusting.
"Second, I saw that there were many young music lovers on the stage today. I hope all parents can take good care of their children and maintain order at the scene."
"Third, friends who want to take photos and videos to post on WeChat Moments, please turn off your flash. I hope all the highlights today will be in the center of the stage."
"at last."
"Let us first use gentle applause to introduce our protagonist - He Jing."
There was gentle applause from the audience, and at the same time, the soft music in the speakers gradually became weaker.
moment.
He Jing, dressed in a silver dress, walked onto the stage from the backstage entrance with a smile.
The next second.
The applause from the audience only grew louder and louder.
Qin Jian opened his hands.
The two siblings hugged each other gently.
"Is my opening statement too long-winded?"
"I think the time is just right."
He Jing smiled.
Qin Jian nodded, "Come on," and then turned and left the stage.
As Qin Jian stepped down, He Jing walked to the stage.
He glanced around and finally landed on Qin Gang and Fang Xuehua.
Hold your chest with your left hand and hold your chest with your right hand.
Bowed deeply.
Then he came to the piano and sat down.
moment.
He Jing raised her left hand.
A heavy single tone struck the stage.
The right hand followed closely, and the middle and index fingers fell one after another.
