There is really no need to stand up and bow after the first piece is completed, especially in a competition where there are two performance pieces.
This can lead to some awkward situations for everyone.
Audience: 'Applause, or continue to sit quietly?'
Applause is not in line with etiquette.
Sitting quietly seems rude.
It seems that the players starting from the eighth place have forgotten some things about etiquette.
Lamoer is like this, and Qin Jian is like this too.
For the time being, it may be understood as ‘they are still quiet in their own music world and have temporarily forgotten the existence of the stage’.
but.
The difference between the two was quickly distinguished by a sudden burst of applause.
The confrontation between the stage and the audience was broken instantly.
"bravo!!"
In the corner of the middle row of the auditorium, Duan Ran had already raised his hands high, just before she clasped her hands together.
A loud round of applause, accompanied by a shout, sounded from her neighbor.
She admitted that in such a quiet atmosphere, the sudden voice really frightened her.
She turned around and saw a big man with a beard. He looked like he was from Vienna, or maybe from Germany.
In short, under his leadership, the auditorium fell in the next second.
"bravo!!"
"bravo!!"
"Wow~~~~~~~~~~"
"Wow~~~~~~~~~~"
Applause and cheers came and went.
Many judges stopped holding their airs and clapped along.
...
on the stage.
Facing the waves of applause, Qin Jian's quiet smile revealed a faint indescribable emotion.
He didn't know whether the trembling left hand was caused by the inspiration of Amadeus' last wish, or whether it was caused by the churning energy and blood in his heart.
At this moment, it seemed that he was no longer himself.
Under the warm yellow mist.
The dark cheering scene in front of me felt like I had gone through the time tunnel of k491 and returned to a certain scene on a certain day of a certain year and a certain month.
Holding your head high,
Uncontrollably, his left leg shook, and then he stepped forward again and walked to the front of the stage.
Holding his chest with his right hand, Qin Jian bent down again.
For a moment, it seemed as if holy chants were echoing in his ears again.
this moment.
He was not sure who bowed his head to whom.
But there was a question that lingered in his mind for a long time——
"Who touched heaven with a piano?"
There seems to be an answer already.
"Believe me, Yadah and Kira will spread to every corner of the world."
The emergence of belief.
Often it's just a moment.
...
Less than five seconds passed.
When Qin Jian raised his head again, he seemed to have gained some kind of spiritual sublimation.
The impurities in his eyes disappeared.
Scanning the audience with a faint peripheral vision, he turned and returned to the piano.
With a shake of his hands, the swallow's tail behind him floated high, and he sat down gracefully.
Standing proudly in front of the piano, he wiped his hands.
A determination showed from every little move he made.
...
...
The other side of the earth.
He Jing was full of emotions.
Even though there was a thin layer of mobile phone screen, she could still feel the change in Qin Jian's temperament.
She believes that a person's eyes cannot deceive.
In the office after the last monthly exam, when she asked the other party about the revolutionary etudes, the other party's eyes were evasive.
It was a "special period" when the delicate relationship between "sister and brother" had not yet thawed. As a teacher, she didn't ask anything.
And shortly afterwards.
After the crisis contact between the siblings, when Qin Jian played the third movement of the Pathetique in front of her for the first time, his eyes were still evasive.
But there is no doubt that it is almost the most moving third movement she has ever heard.
She still didn't ask anything.
Throughout the Huayun Competition, she could vividly remember Qin Jian's anxiety. When the Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini came to an end, she saw a flash of light in his eyes.
But the next day, the depressed look in his eyes puzzled her.
It seemed that the first place result brought him more trouble than joy, but she still didn't ask. As a sister, she just stayed with him.
But when it came to the Tokyo competition, due to various reasons, she was unable to accompany him.
However, she still remembered the scene when Qin Jian stood up and jumped off his stool when the final bell fell, turned around and walked towards the backstage.
His eyes were full of fatigue.
Perhaps it was the confusion and troubles of an independent individual growing up, so she remained silent once again.
...
But at this moment, recalling the extremely determined look in her eyes just now, she felt that she didn't need to ask anything.
Accompanied by the chirping of cicadas in the middle of the night, He Jing sighed, as if the weight on his heart had been lifted.
moment.
A pair of small dimples climbed up her cheeks.
...
"Dang-dang---dang-dang."
The sudden sound of music from her cell phone interrupted her thoughts.
The strange melody made He Jing's eyebrows raise involuntarily.
Her short hair and bare makeup instantly made her look a bit playful and cute.
"What surprises are you going to bring this time?"
...
Surprise or shock?
The expressions of the fifty judges in the audience gave the best answer.
After the mysterious introduction in the witch's dream ended, two sets of pious and quiet chords were pressed
The atmosphere on the stage changed again.
'theme'
The core elements of a variation.
The solemn mass theme spreads from the center of the stage like a huge wave that purifies the soul.
If K491 is a holy self-salvation, then the mass theme of K7 is undoubtedly a kind of cleansing for the world.
"It's Baja!!"
A judge from Vienna shouted in his heart that he believed in gods.
In his mind, no piece of music can compare with Bach's Mass in B minor.
But the development of music did not move towards the art of fugue or the Brandenburg Concerto.
The main melody of the piano ends in the blessing sutra of "The sound of cheers resounds through the sky".
Unfortunately, this is not a Bach mass.
The whole place was quiet.
Qin Jian raised his hands.
Instead of continuing the solemnity of the Mass, the piano seemed to rise directly to the sky above the church.
Under the Night Sky in B flat minor, variation 1.
Counterpoint expansion.
The melodic texture in the theme is extracted, but the tone of the music is still retained.
But in the development of the piano's statement, a large number of weak tuning processing adds a bit of mystery to the melody.
Until in the dark green light of dawn, the darkness of the night recedes.
At this moment, a young female judge from Oceania opened her mouth slightly.
"Scarlatti."
She felt that the music at this time was like a certain melody in Scarlatti's nocturne, but her reason told her that their structures were completely different.
...
Whether Scarlatti, Bach, or Mozart, Beethoven.
Every great composer uses the same notes, the same rhythm, and the same major and minor keys in their creations.
But in this seemingly stereotyped space, everyone is different.
As music evolves.
After the first variation, no one questioned the existence of the piece itself.
And then another question really took root in everyone's minds.
