Qin Jian had the idea for this wedding gift, which was not a surprise, when he was in Warsaw.
At the dinner table after the official tour press conference the day before yesterday, Qin Jian expressed his sincere thoughts to Shen Qingci.
After gaining the consent of the two, the current scene took place.
For the losers, this is also a high-quality performance opportunity.
Shen Qingci and Liao Linjun are currently the pillars of the domestic classical music circle. They have won awards in various competitions at home and abroad in their early years. Most of the guests attending their wedding are basically from the domestic and foreign classical music circles.
Famous people.
Being able to perform live with many big names in the industry is definitely a rare experience for ordinary music students.
So no one is willing to refuse such an opportunity.
...
The next morning, Qin Jian compiled two lists, one was the list of members traveling to Germany and the 31 finalized candidates, and the other was the list of performers who participated in the wedding, with the unsuccessful candidates plus various ministers.
After handing over the list of people going to Germany to Teacher Liu, Qin Jian went to the piano room and handed over the list of members participating in the wedding performance to Chen Tangjie, and also gave him two orchestra scores.
Among the many wedding marches, those by Mendelssohn and Wagner are the most famous.
The former is the prelude to the fifth act of Mendelssohn's "A Midsummer Night's Dream", which is cheerful and passionate.
The latter is the mixed chorus "Wedding Cantata" that begins in the third act of Wagner's opera "Lohengrin". It was later changed to an orchestral version, which is solemn and solemn.
“We should use Wagner for the opening and Mendelssohn for the exit.”
Qin Jian warned, "These two works are trivial. I will distribute the scores so that everyone can practice them first and take the time to rehearse a few times. There will be a rehearsal on the afternoon of the 23rd. I will not be around then, and someone will contact you. You
Just lead the team there."
Chen Tangjie nodded: "Can you make it back on the 24th? If you don't make it by then, it will be in trouble."
"What's the trouble," Qin Jian said, "If I can't come back in time, won't I still have you? What's the difference between us?"
Chen Tangjie opened his mouth and said, "Okay, then I will take everyone to prepare first."
Qin Jian smiled: "I have to prepare too many things these days. The wedding rehearsal here depends on you. Be careful when rehearsing. I have marked all the precautions in the score."
"Don't worry," Chen Tangjie responded, and then asked: "Does the club need to prepare anything else for tomorrow night's concert?"
"No more fuss, the invitations have been sent out. I will go to the venue later to check and decide on the stage location. The rest will have to wait until tomorrow."
"Wait a minute." Chen Tangjie suddenly slapped his thigh, "The poster hasn't been printed yet!"
Qin Jian waved his hand: "Let's not do it this time. I didn't plan to print posters. Everyone knows about the concert. If you want to see it, you will definitely go there."
"What about the program list?" Chen Tangjie asked next.
Qin Jian: "I have other plans for this."
Chen Tangjie: "Okay, if anything happens, just give me a shout and everyone will be here on call."
Qin Jian: "Well, you can continue practicing the piano. I'll be there soon."
...
After leaving the piano room, Qin Jian went to the theater building.
The on-site layout of the school's main concert hall has come to an end. The long LED screen at the top of the stage scrolls with the words "Gold Medal Winner of the 17th Chopin Competition...".
"Brother Jian, you came just in time." The person who spoke was a sophomore officer of the school student union, "Do you think the stage set needs to be adjusted?"
As he said this, several student union members gathered around to greet Qin Jian.
Qin Jian stood on the stage and looked around, then turned to smile at everyone and said, "Thank you for your hard work. The stage is fine. I just want to see if the LED screen above can be changed."
As he spoke, he pointed to the scrolling note above his head, and everyone looked up.
Qin Jian: "No need."
The student union officer nodded understandingly, "What?"
Qin Jian hesitated for a moment.
"Just, Qin Jian, a sophomore from the Department of Music, gave a special report on Chopin."
"that's all."
...
...
The "Chopin Report Performance by Qin Jian, a sophomore from the Department of Music" was officially performed on the stage of the Concert Hall of the Huaguo Conservatory of Music at 19:30 on the evening of November 17th.
The audience at the concert was all teachers and students of the school and some alumni of the Chinese Academy of Sciences who had graduated.
Judging from the concert site, this is just an ordinary campus concert.
But there is no doubt that this is an extremely popular concert. Twenty minutes after the concert started, it was difficult for the entire concert hall to be filled with people.
The concert hall with only 354 seats could not satisfy everyone's enthusiasm.
The space between the last row of seats in the hall and the back wall, the aisles between the auditoriums, and the backstage scene were all packed with spectators.
In the afternoon, Qin Jian specifically told the venue management students who were responsible for maintaining the order of the concert, "There is no need to close the door during the concert. Some freshmen students can only rush over after class."
As a concert without posters and track lists, Qin Jian set a precedent for student concerts at Hua Guo Yuan College.
Before the concert started, students in the piano department were all guessing what piece Qin Jian would open with.
Some people guessed the Polonaise, some people guessed the Ballade No. 1, and some people guessed the Scherzo in B flat minor.
This kind of remote interaction has undoubtedly shortened the distance between people on stage and off stage.
But in the end, Fang Xiaoyu guessed it right.
Qin Jian opened the first half with the Revolutionary Etude. This work, which has great significance to him, became his opening piece for this concert.
The resolute melody exudes an extraordinary sense of stage in the elegant figure.
After being baptized by the Chopin Competition, Qin Jian's stage style has become finalized.
His playing movements are free and smooth, his expressions are changeable and not monotonous, but he never feels stuck in self-absorption.
He uses pure performance to show the audience the colorful charm of music itself.
After the revolution, he went on to play the complete set of Op28 Preludes. This work, which was widely discussed in the industry at the Gold Medal Concert, has become his repertoire.
But on today's occasion, he had no reservations.
Op.28 is followed by the Polonaise and the Ballade in G minor, two of his classic pieces from Chaucer.
After the second half started, he returned to the stage and bluntly told the audience that there was no program for this concert.
He asked everyone what else they wanted to hear, but only Chopin's works.
This question immediately shocked the audience.
Including all the teachers, no one thought that this concert would develop in this direction.
There is no publicity, no posters, and no admission restrictions. The performers are just like in the practice room, asking the people next to them what else they want to hear.
"Winter wind! President! There must be winter wind!"
The first person to respond to Qin Jian was a violin member of the Figaro Spring sophomore class.
So Qin Jian of the Qin family played the winter wind.
"Brother Jian, please play the B major nocturne again!"
So Qin Jian played the Nocturne in B major.
"Senior Brother Qin, can you play a puppy waltz?"
This soft voice sounded quite big, as if it took a lot of courage.
