861. Spring Festival Gala After New Year's Eve Dinner
Indeed, no one told Qin Jian why he had to fall in love and get married before having children.
So when faced with He Jing's fierce rhetorical question, he could only respond with an "oh".
The topic did not go beyond the scope, but it did not continue.
The two siblings then talked about the topic they had not finished talking on the phone last time, about the naming of piano teaching methods.
He Jing still expressed her hope to name this piano teaching method after Qin Jian, but Qin Jian himself still wanted to name it after "Chris".
Of course, "Sister, after all, this is your training institution, and ultimately you make the decision."
As for whose name this teaching method is named after, it is not the key to the problem. What He Jing is confused about is, "What does the name Chris mean to this teaching method?"
Before making a decision, she needed to know why Qin Jian insisted on using the name 'Chris'.
moment.
"Buck Romeo Chris Doveley."
Qin Jian spit out a name, "The inventor of the harpsichord."
“I read a book about Chris making pianos and was very inspired by it, so.”
After a pause, he sat up from the sofa and said, "The first and third chapters of this teaching method and the first two sections of the fourth chapter are all extracted from Chris's piano-making craftsmanship."
He Jing nodded quietly, subconsciously.
This was the first time she heard Qin Jian talk about the origin of this teaching method.
As Qin Jian's first professional teacher, she was often troubled by Qin Jian's rapid progress during this period two years ago.
Because she didn't know which big hand was pushing Qin Jian invisible from behind.
As time passed, she gradually attributed everything to
All the credit goes to Qin Jian's suddenly awakened talent.
After hearing Qin Jian talk about it today, she became very interested in the background of this teaching method.
In the next half hour, Qin Jian talked about how he refined today’s ‘Chris Piano Teaching Method’ from Chris’s piano-making techniques.
He Jing was greatly shocked after hearing this. She could only say that Qin Jian had the ability to create illusions.
She couldn't help but ask how the other party connected the 'depth of the key feet' with the wrist strength of the 'legato action'.
There is also something about - taking out the "sound" from the keyboard at a deeper or shallower level.
These highly imaginative things may seem unbelievable at first, but upon closer inspection it is not difficult to discover some mysteries.
As Qin Jian said, this teaching method is independent of the ideological dogma of the four mainstream piano schools.
It is purely a teaching practice manual that tells how to pronounce and how to touch the keys to play the piano.
"So it's pure enough."
Qin Jian said frankly, "I hope this teaching method can help some people who like piano, including adults. I believe its practical value far exceeds most teaching content on the market."
He Jing must admit that she has long been aware of the value of this teaching method. Judging from her two years of experience in working at ICM, this teaching method does not even need to be promoted. It only takes one year of practice to make it more effective.
attract attention within society.
In the past two years of her work, she has recorded various large and small field cases, many of which are problems that even the so-called omnipotent 'icm piano teaching program' cannot solve.
However, after she read through Qin Jian's teaching methods and then went back to analyze the problems that appeared in those teaching cases, she could not say that she directly discovered the solution, but at least she found a different thinking direction than before.
"In fact, I thought about it carefully later. For this teaching method, the United States may be the best practice base."
Qin Jian sighed, and then said with emotion, "All the mainstream schools in Europe still emphasize their unchangeable characteristics to this day, but I always have a hunch that this characteristic will be removed in the future."
"If it is not removed, it will become a useless thing that limits development."
"This is no longer two hundred years ago. There are no classical works produced today, and it is impossible to usher in a period of great explosion of classical works in the future."
"In other words, within the range of existing works, the development of piano performance technology can only move towards a great integration."
"Of course, this is just my personal opinion."
"But from this point of view, the development advantages of the American modern school have been highlighted. I think you have stayed at Eastman for nearly two years and you know this better than I do."
He Jing could not deny this.
"Zong Yao played a Prokofiev sonata when he came back from this trip. To be honest, I was surprised after listening to it. It has only been more than three months since the end of the competition, and his performance completely changed.
After meeting a person, both style and technique have undergone transformation, tending to be completed with clear thinking."
"I think this is inseparable from his accumulation in the past year and a half, and it is also inseparable from Julia."
"And the March of Girobasi that you played last time.
"You are all being influenced by the American School."
"It's a good influence."
"When it reaches a certain level, when the technology that has been tempered for hundreds of years conflicts with modern music, we should go to deeper places to explore instead of going back hundreds of years to find answers. In my opinion, this is development.
.
"So going back to this teaching method, I think the soil in the United States is more suitable for it than the soil in Europe."
He Jing: "What about here?"
Qin Jian: "The piano is an imported product. We don't have piano works rooted in the soil, so naturally we don't have our own school of thought. We basically follow the old path of the Russian school."
He Jing asked again: "Have you ever thought about developing a school of thought that belongs to us?"
Qin Jian smiled.
He Jing also laughed after asking.
moment.
"This problem is too complicated at present," Qin Jian said.
He Jing put on her coat and walked to the wine cabinet to take down a bottle of red wine. She turned around and asked, "Want some?"
"Half glass."
Qin Jian got up and went to the bathroom to wash his face.
When I came back, two goblets were already placed on the coffee table.
He Jing has a cup and he has half a cup.
Regarding the issue of piano teaching methods, the two siblings chatted until late at night.
Until He Jing's bedroom door was pushed open, Mr. Qin had already gotten up.
The old man was about to go downstairs, but He Jing dissuaded him, so he went to the kitchen, closed the door, and smoked alone.
"Sister, go to sleep, can you still sleep for 4 hours?"
"last question."
"Um?"
"Since you are so clear, why don't you go to the United States? Is it because of Duan Ran that you go to Vienna?"
"Part of it. Also, during this trip to Vienna, I want to understand Beethoven and Bach."
“To find works that are rooted in the soil?”
"Haha, maybe."
"I know, good night."
"Good night sister."
——
At 4:30 a.m. on the first day of the Lunar New Year in 2016, the two siblings had a more in-depth chat.
During this chat, He Jing found a clearer direction for her work.
