701. Adams' hole card? Ancient techniques make their debut
At that time, the Warsaw media did not forget to mention Branjano while questioning him.
In those days, Edmundo's halo from Branjano seemed to turn into a collar of thorns on his head.
Afterwards, Robert specially invited him to a home-cooked meal and told him not to be influenced by the outside world and to prepare well for the next competition.
Under great pressure from the outside world and himself, Edmundo, with the encouragement of his family and friends, had an explosion in the second round.
Big explosion.
He proved to everyone with his perfect performance why he made it to the second round.
Just overnight.
The Warsaw media seemed to be one-sided and all began to praise him vigorously.
For a while, he was placed at the forefront of public opinion.
He knew he had to perform better in the third round to reassure those who still doubted him.
Don’t doubt yourself when faced with difficulties, and don’t feel complacent when receiving flowers and applause.
Edmundo is ready to continue to explode.
And the touching words his teacher told him last night, 'Go and give it a try, no matter what the result is, you will be the pride of Polish piano.'
At that moment, the national sentiment buried deep in his heart was completely ignited.
...
"Wow"——
That passion is still burning to this day, and he bowed deeply in the face of the applause from the audience.
Then he turned around and sat in front of the piano.
After the applause fell, he continued to adjust the height of the piano bench.
The last female player's incredibly long legs put him to shame, and he had to sit higher than her opponent to make it more comfortable when raising his arms.
After finally adjusting the piano bench to the appropriate height, Edmundo pushed the gold-rimmed mirror frame on the bridge of his nose.
The next second.
"Dang!"
The rough chords were like the north wind passing through the ice field, and the whole hall felt like being invaded by a cold wind for a moment.
Gorgeous and dazzling sound flows in the wilderness, 'Op.28-16, Prelude in B flat minor, bold Presto'
Edmundo decisively started his playing.
It is somewhat similar to Qin Jian's start in the third round. He also chose a prelude, but he did not start with the first prelude.
He chose to start with a bold Presto.
The edgy scale theme rages repeatedly in the crisp low-pitched whirling rhythm.
From the very beginning, he showed a final-level momentum that excited the audience.
In A-flat major 17 after Op. 28-16, his playing became soft again, like an affectionate man expressing his love for his sweetheart in a wordless song.
Two melodies with extremely contrasting emotions, one tight and one loose, one behind the other, made the atmosphere of the scene completely enter his Chopin world.
In the audience, Branjano leaned back in his chair and looked at the young figure on the stage with satisfaction. He was very satisfied with Edmundo's opening.
An Jieyi beside him could not see any change in his expression.
Edmonds then played seven more preludes, finally stopping at No. 24 in D minor.
The passion at the end is like revolution, and the structure of the whole song is even more magnificent.
Close hand.
Edmund wiped his sweat and held up his glasses.
Raise your hands and lower your fingers to continue playing.
‘Sonata No. 3, Op.58’
There are four movements in the whole area, and every subtle breath and pause under Edmundo's fingertips can determine the context from the beginning to the end of the phrase.
The highest secret of the Polish piano school is great phrase singing, there is no doubt about this.
No matter how beautiful Chopin's melody is, it still requires in-depth understanding to be revealed.
Edmonds' Polish blood was his sharpest pickaxe.
The moment the piano sound of the last movement settled down, a set of exquisitely crafted and beautiful works of art appeared on the stage.
"His sonata can compete for the best sonata of this year."
In the corner of the audience, Yiglaz whispered to Shen Qingci.
Shen Qingci nodded. From an artistic perspective, Edmundo's set of sonatas can be said to be one of the best among all the sonatas in this cycle.
The only ones that can compete with it are probably the sonatas of two German and Austrian players, Fred and Adams.
Based on the previous rounds of performances, Ivanov, who is from the purely Russian school, should have been able to compete in the sonata section, but Ivanov's sonata left nothing but chicken feathers.
However, Rachel, who plays in the modern genre, and Qin Jian, who cannot be defined into a specific genre, did not bet on the sonata in the third round.
However, Edmundo's performance was not over yet, and Shen Qingci was a little curious about how the other party would play the mazurka next.
He could see that the opponent had a belief in winning as soon as he came on the stage, and in the first half hour, the opponent did indeed put on a wonderful performance.
This is not wrong in his opinion, but does the other party have enough physical strength and energy to continue playing so profligately?
Shen Qingci couldn't help but put a question mark in his heart.
As far as he knew, the famous player Edmundo had not participated in any competition before this Chopin Competition.
...
Edmundo's performance continues.
In the final mazurka, he continued the sonata performance.
...
The exciting melody dances all over the sky.
Elegance is equally divided into every note, leading the work to purity, and the natural free-speed flow runs through the entire work.
At the last moment, the music takes a bigger turn at just the right place.
The Polish young man in front of the piano waved his arms even more excitedly!
As if to prove that only Chopin played by Poles is the most orthodox Chopin!
"Dang!!!----"
The coda seemed to ignite all the blood in Edmundo's chest.
However, the new sparks ignited by the final phrase dissipated in an instant and floated to every corner of the hall.
Because the music has stopped.
Edmundo breathed heavily, as if he had been in a dream.
The depression in his heart had disappeared, but suddenly he felt empty.
...
“bravo!!!!!!”
A Warsaw music fan on the second floor of the stands stood up excitedly, shouted, raised his hands above his head, and clapped vigorously.
‘papapa!!’
“Wow————————————”
The Warsaw Philharmonic Hall was drowned in applause.
At this moment, no Warsaw person was not excited by it, whether they were on the scene or in front of the screen.
Edmundo proved himself once again.
Branjano clapped, clapped very hard.
But this time, the expression of An Jieyi beside him changed. Although he also clapped, there was a little uneasiness in his eyes.
the other side.
"It's so exciting! I didn't even think about it before, but now it seems that Rafat is indeed a good teacher!"
Igraz is proud of his fellow Poles.
"really."
Shen Qingci nodded. He admitted that Branjano taught Edmundo the most orthodox Polish school of thought, and he also praised Edmundo's talent.
But one thing he kept in his heart was that Branjano only participated in one competition, although he won the championship.
But once is just once.
...
Backstage rest room.
"Well, how can I put it, his emotions are too much."
Qin Jian tried to explain Duan Ran more clearly, "He released too many emotions in this round. Although I don't know why he was so eager to perform, I am basically certain that his performance in the finals will never exceed
Today’s scene.”
"Why?" Duan Ran still didn't understand, "Judging from his steady improvement in these rounds, he should perform better in the finals, right?"
Qin Jian smiled: "Then tell me what is a better performance?"
Duan Ran thought about it for a while and felt that he was really being questioned.
"Uh~ It's more... Anyway... then what do you say~"
