Qin Jian's brain became highly active, and his fingers were itchy with eagerness to try.
"oh?"
The focused guidance that he hadn't started for a long time gave him a somewhat different feeling, different from the previous strong sense of uncontrollable foreboding.
At this moment, he could clearly feel that every nerve seemed to be wandering around his thoughts, but they were ready to move.
This is a whole new experience.
"It seems that my own emotions have a tendency to become the dominant focus and guidance."
Suppressing the inexplicable feeling of comfort in his heart, Qin Jian calmed himself down.
Looking down at the black and white keyboard in front of him, he tried his best not to recall the scene of the game.
"bring it on."
The moment he raised his hand, the speed of the piece he was about to play and the required range of performance appeared in his mind.
“Presto fuoco”
"Complete in 57 seconds - 60 seconds."
This is a habit he has developed in recent months in preparation for the Xiaoxing competition.
Then the shape of the entire piece seemed to be constructed in a combined manner and appeared in his consciousness.
Moreover, when the focus guidance is turned on, the work model becomes more three-dimensional, showing every detail in detail.
He saw the bold Presto bursting into flames, saw the sixteenth-tone group standing quietly within the 2/2 bar line about to come out, and saw the broken chords boiling...
The various textures seemed to be filled with shadows one after another, and one name after another flashed through his mind...
It seems that all he needs to do next is to play it all with his hands.
"~"
Slowly, Qin Jian withdrew his hand under all the expectant eyes.
The onlookers were greatly puzzled——
Is this young man about to back down now? His posture just now looked impressive~
He just wants to sit in front of the piano and experience it and take a photo?
The young clerk was thinking that if the other party asked for a refund of 10 euros, he would have to refuse, because this happened all the time, and just give him a pack of cigarettes.
Nini's father did not stop the camera work. He kept the camera and slowly moved to the left front of the piano, as if he wanted to record this scene more directly.
Duan Ran was still looking at the back in front of the piano with a smile. She had a feeling that something good was going to happen again.
Whispers gradually arose among the crowd.
After about five or six seconds, Qin Jian took off the watch on his left hand.
"10:34:54."
Looking at the ticking of the second hand, he put the watch on the music stand.
"56." He muttered.
"57." Take a deep breath.
"58." Exhale.
"59." Take another breath.
"60." Raise your hand.
"10:35:01!"
Finger drop!!
Putting both hands together, Qin Jian pressed out the first chord.
“Dang!!!!”
Duan Ran reacted immediately to the key of B flat minor.
As soon as the chord sounded, the intensity was fff, and for a moment the whole street seemed to be enveloped by the oppression of this chord.
The crowd of onlookers fell silent. Almost no one among them had heard such violent piano sounds at such a close distance.
Qin Jian's brain became completely excited at this moment, and his jumping nerves quickly rotated around the work model in his consciousness, as if to remind him that it was time to play the next chord.
However, Qin Jian's hands did not follow this guidance.
Under the lens of the camera, a trace of amusement appeared on the corner of his mouth.
After consciously delaying his hands for about 0.5 seconds——
Lift and drop again!!
"when!!"
The delayed second chord sounded, and the excitement in Qin Jian's mind subsided a little, and he felt that he had to match his hand speed.
This interesting feeling made Qin Jian's smile even bigger. He slowed down again and pressed the third chord with a delay of 0.5 seconds.
"when!!!"
Chopin's Prelude in B flat minor. Nini's father, who was filming, heard this piece through these three chords, but he had never heard such an opening.
The third chord pulled the nerves apart again. This time, even the shape of the original work model seemed to be affected, and it kept fluctuating.
After carefully observing the time of 0.5 seconds again, Qin Jian put away the smile on his lips.
While staring, he raised his arms high, his originally upright body tilted at a 70-degree angle, and exerted force on his waist. A force from bottom to top instantly passed through his shoulders to his arms, and poured into his ten fingers.
"when!!!!"
"when!!!!"
The fourth and fifth chords appear!
Two fast and uninterrupted more powerful chords rushed toward the model of the work like two ferocious beasts.
One blow! It was on the verge of collapse.
Two strikes! On the verge of collapse.
One second later.
"Dang~"
At this moment, Qin Jian felt a 'click' sound in his mind.
The sixth crisp chord changes the time and intensity of the appearance again, like a gentle breath that completely blows away the solid model.
It seems like a long time has passed, yet it seems like only a moment has passed
Qin Jian felt a clarity in his mind.
So far.
He erased all foreign traces of 'Preludes Op.28:16.in b Flat Minor' from his mind.
But the active nerves were not buried under the ruins. Qin Jian felt that they were just hiding in pieces.
"Then let's rebuild."
In a moment of thought, Qin Jian's hands moved again.
A prelude, which can be as long as a few minutes or as short as twenty or thirty seconds, is usually used as the prelude to a longer work.
But Chopin's preludes do not have this concept of prelude. Each of his preludes is a complete picture or impression.
At the age of 27, Chopin composed 24 preludes.
Chopin's 24 preludes were written in 24 different keys from C major to B minor according to the twelve equal temperament method. The arrangement method was a cycle of fifths, and finally 24 pieces were formed.
Therefore, many scholars believe that these 24 preludes are closely related and should be performed as one completed work.
Some performers hold this view, but there are also many who insist that each prelude is constructed by Chopin with a short musical idea as the center, so the 24 pieces should be treated separately.
But no matter from which perspective, there are too many classic versions in history.
Every performer who is proficient in Chopin will have his own set of inner principles for the 24 preludes.
Or a thousand Hamlets.
Qin Jian does not belong to the former or the latter for the time being.
The scores of the 24 preludes were lined up in his mind. It was difficult for him not to regard the 24 as a whole. However, under the influence of Liao Linjun, the 24 major and minor keys represented respectively in his ideology.
respective colors.
Therefore, they are both integrated and independent to Qin Jian.
In this process, Qin Jian also had his own understanding. Looking at them separately, Qin Jian believed that besides color, what constituted them separately was not simply Chopin's music.
“A performer’s starting point is inseparable from a detailed explanation of the work.”
