The Ossia cadenza ended and the atmosphere in the concert hall was no longer exciting.
After the flute, the principals of the oboe and horn sections also appeared one by one, talking to the piano under Sabina's baton again.
Qin Jian's left hand reorganizes the melody and rhythm, while his right hand maintains coherent lyricism.
The rhythm processing with rubato makes the music enter a romantic atmosphere. At a crese, he uses skillful pedal breaking technology to make the fast running during acceleration clearer.
Sabina, who is always paying attention to the changes in the piano, lowered the volume of the string section as soon as she felt the changes in the sound.
Qin Jian also seized the opportunity created by the other party for him, and while speeding up the process, his fingertips gradually tightened their strength.
Then the music slowly disappeared in the quiet thinking. After the dramatic expansion, Qin Jian played the theme again.
The melody full of Slavic humanity revived, and the whole stage seemed to be filled with new vitality.
It's just that this vitality has come to an end, and the harmony mixed with a little pessimism has disappeared majestically into the lonely arpeggios.
The piano and orchestral music switch back and forth between profound and dramatic themes and gentle questioning themes, ultimately showing the purest Russian style.
The conductor made a closing gesture and all the orchestra members stopped.
The Qin key in front of the piano played the last set of chords at a full volume of pp. When he raised his hands, his body paused.
The picture freezes.
The first movement ends vividly.
There is usually a short pause after the first piece of music, about 15 seconds, firstly to give the performers a little rest time, and secondly to allow the audience to relax.
The first movement of La San + grand cadenza is enough to make any performer breathless.
However, Qin Jian looked pretty good under the spotlight at this moment. Apart from his face being sweaty, there was no other abnormality.
This is true on stage, and everyone in the audience also needs to wake up after experiencing this dual ultimate auditory + visual experience.
I have to say that the first movement just now was really exciting.
Throughout the second half of the first movement, from the beginning to the end of the cadenza, almost every listener reached varying degrees of intracranial climax.
After listening to the hearty ossia cadenza, everyone was hooked.
moment.
After wiping his sweat, Qin Jian lightly wiped the bass range of the keyboard and put the handkerchief aside. He was very satisfied with the first movement just now.
Especially Huacai, he is not sure whether the emotions he conveyed through ossia can be felt by everyone.
But from a piano player's perspective, he gained a lot from the cadenza just now.
This should be the first time that he has completely released his self-restraint on stage.
Even at the most intense moment, he himself didn't know why his emotions entered that crazy state.
"call--"
Taking a deep breath, Qin Jian glanced at his left hand. Under the first bottle of crazy potion, the admiration value had increased to 34,500+, but he was not surprised at all. This was an orthodox classical music festival.
After deducting 2346 points of worship points, he entered the state of the second bottle of Chris's crazy potion.
Finally moving his shoulders, he finally looked at Sabina.
Sabina had been waiting for his look for 5 or 6 seconds.
If the first movement just now is regarded as the first rehearsal for the two of them, then the quality of the rehearsal is perfect. Not only that, during this process, the two have become more familiar with each other's conducting and performance style.
Mutual understanding.
They nodded to each other, Qin Jian smiled, as if to convey his gratitude, and Sabina turned around and raised her baton.
The music continues with an adagio intermezzo.
...
The music is played by an ethereal and soft string section, and the oboe plays a melody similar to the first theme material.
The piano joins in in the form of a lyrical triplet, the music shifts to D-flat major, and the harmonic colors appear warm and bright.
Throughout the first half of the second movement, Qin Jian continued the way he played in Moscow, focusing on creating a sense of imagery and occasionally using free rhythm to extend a certain note he liked.
This was his reflection on La San that he had been pondering for more than half a year.
If Qin Jian in the first movement expresses the picture from the undercurrent of calm to the struggle of resistance, then in the second movement he plays Rage's confusion about the future.
This echoes the ossia cadenza in the musical structure of his whole piece. The ossia he understands is the confrontation between Lach and not going with the flow.
Another kind of cadenza represents the composer's other inner response to that difficult and turbulent era.
Although he is on a ship, there is a storm behind him. Although he has a courtyard, he is in a foreign land. Although he lives in peace, it is no more than wandering.
Qin Jian thought - in this other brilliance, Rachmaninov should have the ambition to brave the wind and waves and return to his motherland to stop wandering.
But a cadenza is just a cadenza after all, like a hysteria and a utopia in a dream.
After waking up from the dream, facing yesterday and today, maybe Lage will also ask "To be or not to be"?
The melody under Qin Jian's fingertips at this moment is sometimes lively, sometimes lonely, sometimes affectionate, sometimes wild.
Lage's escape from the progress of the times is affectionately interpreted, while also questioning.
There are so many gorgeous and beautiful melodies in the hall at the moment that many people are unable to associate this beauty with the tragic and heroic music of La San.
Bruno no longer played with his thumb, he was sensitive to the fact that the color flowing in the music was no longer just the tragic color of the music form.
He stared at the figure in front of the piano, as if he wanted to see through him.
Every modulation of the music is not only accompanied by exciting or bright chords, but also a sensitive contemplation.
He was certain that this sensitive musing had nothing to do with Sabina's command.
"This isn't just fun."
This time, Bruno was really interested in Qin Jian.
As the texture of the movement continues to expand, and with the help of the band, the piano's musical ideas become more powerful.
The piano speed continues to speed up and the intensity continues to increase.
The feeling of uneasiness and tension spread from the center of the stage to the entire hall again.
Throwing his head to the left, Qin Jian turned his wrist with his right hand in an acrobatic manner, and used the natural force of pushing his arm to drop a series of continuous notes. He claps with his left hand, and the chords follow.
Sabina understandably allowed the band to recreate a tragic mood.
Finally, at the end of the second movement, Qin Jian raised and lowered his arms, completing the descending octave chords with both hands, and the music exploded with majestic momentum in the air.
It seems that all the escapes and doubts have finally faced reality. The sound of gunfire is still mixed with the desperate shouts of nobles and the neighing of fierce horses.
During the scene in Moscow, Qin Jian stopped here.
But at this moment, he felt that it was time to wake up from the poet's imperial dream.
A moment without any gap.
He led the conductor and the orchestra into the third movement without interruption.
