323. One step away, the bewitching flower, the pure tears
Off stage.
Shen Qingci nodded and raised his hand.
At the moment when his hands were about to clap together.
"Uh-huh!!!"
A bright light hit the center of the dark stage and fell directly on the black and white keys.
A pair of long, slender hands stood still between the black and white grids.
The ethereal choir and orchestra sounded again, seamlessly connected to the last beat of the last bar in the darkness.
The next second.
The hands moved.
His strong hands were raised high.
Like the light of a firefly falling.
"when!!"
"when!!"
Two soul-stirring chords awakened the sleeping piano.
It was like two gorgeous fireworks splashed in the night sky.
One is called Shen Shen.
One is called Enchanting.
The halo gradually spreads outward from the keyboard.
At this moment, the audience saw clearly.
The conductor, who was wearing a standard military uniform, abandoned his baton and sat in front of the piano.
He waved his hands.
His expression was calm, but his movements were ferocious.
Every blow he made seemed like the steel strings couldn't bear it.
But the fierce and hot sound of the piano pushed the music to a climax again.
“It’s one step away!!!!”
There was a scream from the audience, unable to control their emotions anymore.
"a step far!!!!"
An exclamation followed.
at this time.
Huang Cheng, who was in the backstage control room, was wearing headphones, looking at the stage picture on the screen, and gently pressed the left button with his left hand.
...
"Uh-huh!!"
Another light hit the stage.
Everyone looked around subconsciously.
Under the second beam of light, Ning Qianxia was frozen in the picture.
It's like drawing the ground on one side of the piano as a prison.
like a statue.
In those dark seconds, no one knew what was happening on the stage
Only the left hem of her bohemian dress was torn off a large piece, and her left leg was completely exposed to the air.
Looking down her legs, next to her crystal white left foot is a rag shoe, and beside the shoe are a few pieces of gray linen.
The high-pitched vocals of the four-part chorus and the passionate orchestra create the most stable harmony stage for the piano.
This gives Qin Jian the greatest room to display his wild imagination in front of the piano.
He spared no effort in squandering his talents.
At this moment, everyone's eyes returned to him.
At this moment, they recalled this young man's resume.
He is the piano champion of the Huayun Competition, and his rhapsody on a theme of Paganini amazed everyone.
At the Tokyo competition, in the individual finals of the youth group, his enthusiastic stomping in the third movement caused endless debate among the judges.
Stay.
"That's all."
Faced with doubts, he used silence and madness to defeat the crowd in the Mozart group, sweeping across Asia to become the leader in Mozart performance. As the number one in Asia, he flew to Vienna with the Chinese voice and went to the classical music center. home.
On the stage of the Golden Hall, he performed Mozart's Elegy K491 and won a very important trophy for the Chinese piano community.
He is the first Chinese to win the piano championship in the Mozart Music Competition.
He is regarded as an idol by China's new generation of classical music dream-seekers, and he is hailed as the young Mozart of the East by Western classical music critics.
It is rumored that after the game he rejected the olive branch offered by the Vienna State Conservatory of Music, which is coveted by many people, and he rejected the 27 concert stages offered to him by Austrian radio.
He rejected what everyone thought was the fastest shortcut to fame.
The end of May.
He disappeared into Vienna's airport.
When he reappeared in the public eye, he became a musicology freshman at the Huaguo Conservatory of Music.
Many people know him, but very few have seen him play the piano.
Gradually.
His piano sound seemed to be forgotten along with his status as an ordinary college student.
At the end of September, when he sat in the center of the stage again, sitting in front of the piano.
At this time, he did not play Rachmaninov, Beethoven, Mozart, Chopin, and he did not even participate in the piano part of the Habanera.
He just changed a catchy tango dance song.
a step far.
But when the sound of the piano really sounded.
Everyone seemed to see it.
The young man who was once arrogant in the arena came back with a dazzling tattoo on his left hand.
...
One step away, a tango ditty full of the decadent sentiments of capitalism.
...
At midnight, someone had a flash of inspiration.
...
"Why should I jump?" Ning Qianxia's voice was very soft, she held the phone and lay gently on the pillow.
She had just climbed into bed with her exhausted body and sang bel canto all night. She no longer dared to speak with force. The intensity of Qin Jian's rehearsals had brought her voice to the edge of its limit. She was already too tired. She just wanted to sleep at the moment.
.
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a moment.
"I have already thought about it, and I plan to use One Step to connect the last four bars of Carmen's music. I think it is very suitable for both the harmonic connection at the end and the rhythm change."
One step away, Ning Qianxia smiled softly, she already understood Qin Jian's thoughts.
"But why should I jump?" she asked again.
There was silence on the phone again.
The silence lasted for a long time this time.
"Ding." Suddenly a soft piano sound rang on the phone.
Ning Qianxia frowned, "You have to stay up late again."
There was a wry smile on the phone, "It's not that I've been thinking about choosing music. I can't sleep anyway, and I'm about to go on stage. To tell you the truth, I've been a little anxious lately."
"Where are you?" Ning Qianxia sat up slowly.
"I am at school."
"I asked where you are?" Ning Qianxia asked again.
"Teaching Building 309."
"Wait for me." After hanging up the phone, Ning Qianxia got up from the bed, casually put on a dress and walked out the door.
"Qian Xia, it's so late, what are you doing?" The little cutie poked her head out of the mosquito net.
"Dance."
Ning Qianxia said and pushed the door open, "You don't have to wait for me to go to sleep."
...
"How did you come?"
"Play it to me."
"Sorry, you can't come in this classroom."
"I know, you play it, I'll listen in the corridor."
...
The midnight tango resounded in the corridor.
moment.
Under the light and shadow, in the dim corridor, a figure danced gracefully to the rhythm.
She rotated without any upward movement, with an indomitable momentum.
She stood on her toes, with all her feet resting on her toes.
Just like this at this moment.
On the stage, she was swaying under the beam of light. In the desperate music, she indulged in her dance steps around the black flowing piano. She turned around and jumped, raising the skirt of her right hand.
I skipped the side profile of the pianist.
Qin Jian raised his hand again and pushed the music to its final climax.
One blow is like commanding thousands of troops on the stage.
The orchestra and choir no longer suppressed, singing with full force.
Light and shadow intersect.
She controlled every part of her body, tilted her whole body perfectly in the music, and looked directly at the person in front of the piano.
At the end of the music.
Two beams of light overlapped in front of the piano.
Ning Qianxia pulled out the flower from her chest at the last moment before the end.
Throw the rose high in your hand.
Qin Jian pressed the last chord and raised his head slightly.
The entire concert hall was quiet.
Everyone is looking at the flower in the sky.
It was like a light feather, landing on the left hand side of the keyboard.
Ning Qianxia wanted to reach out and touch the flower through Qin Jian's back.
Her hand was only an inch away from the flowers.
Her feet were only one step away from the piano.
But at this moment, the end of the music completely disappeared.
The gypsy girl seemed to be no longer wild.
A drop of pure tears fell from the corner of her eyes.
