Debuting After Eight Years of Time Travel: 283. Amazing aura of a great artist! Is this talent? (Please subscribe!)

lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter that took eight years to debut!

Actually!

Wang Qian’s words made almost all the European and American musicians present feel offended.

Elton is not just a passer-by, but a real genius-level pianist in the eyes of many people.

Although, he is only the second pianist in the New York Philharmonic Orchestra, that is, a piano substitute. He does not have a role in large-scale performances. He only appears as the principal in some unimportant small performances.

However, no one will underestimate him because of this.

You know, the Philharmonic Orchestra is the second-ranked orchestra in North America and one of the top orchestras in the world. Pianist is the most competitive position, because the piano itself is the most widely spread classical instrument with the largest number of students.

When Elton went to the Philharmonic Orchestra to compete for the position of second pianist, there were hundreds of thousands of people competing, and most of the hundreds of people who came before him were not much worse than Elton. Almost all of the famous pianists are geniuses who graduated from the piano departments of Curtis, Juilliard, Eastman, Manhattan, and other prestigious universities. The competition is fierce, beyond the imagination of laymen!

Being able to stand out among so many talented graduates from prestigious schools and finally being selected by the Philharmonic Orchestra is enough to illustrate Elton's strength and talent.

Such fierce competition also shows that it is very difficult for classical musicians to find jobs now. Of course, this also explains the appeal of the Philharmonic Orchestra.

If he can replace Elsa, the current principal pianist of the New York Philharmonic Orchestra, in the future, then Elton will become a world-class master pianist in the top ten in North America.

Even though he is still a substitute now, he is already a well-known pianist in his own right.

So!

Elton is a pianist with absolute strength and talent. His talent and strength surpass most of the musicians who are learning piano at the scene!

So, what Wang Qian said to Elton: Your talent is too poor!

Almost all the musicians who were learning piano were offended.

If pianists of Elton's level are too talented, then what are most other musicians who are not as good as Elton?

Who are the limited piano musicians who are only better than Elton?

Most of the musicians at the scene from Europe and the United States looked at Wang Qian with unkind eyes. They all expected Elton to teach Wang Qian a lesson, to make him unable to get off the stage after the opening ceremony, and to end the class quickly. Wang Qian will become a joke to the whole world!

Some people couldn't help but complain in a low voice.

Someone exclaimed in a low voice: "God, he actually said that Elton's talent is too poor."

Some people looked at Wang Qian with anger on his face: "Elton held his first concert at the age of nineteen, and was one of the top ten young pianists in North America that year. Although it was his first world tour after graduation, It failed, but after five years of accumulation, he successfully held another world tour. I heard his concert once, and his live performance was very good. This Chinese boy actually said that Elton was talented. Too bad, he is too arrogant and ignorant."

Some people were disdainful: "It's ridiculous for an actor to say that a pianist graduated from Manhattan is too talented!"

However, most people remained silent.

Today, the people present are basically accomplished music artists. Others who are not music artists are also successful people who like art, such as Christine.

Even among the students from Curtis College, only a handful were present.

Therefore, there was no commotion, and everyone seemed very polite and reserved.

A few people made a few comments and then shut up and quieted down to avoid appearing vulgar in front of others.

So, silence is the main theme of today's class.

Everyone sat quietly in their seats, looking at Wang Qian on the podium with a critical eye!

Even though Wang Qian's words offended almost all of them.

Not many people stood up and spoke about it.

Because.

Elton, action has been taken.

They can just wait for Elton's results now.

Wang Qian stretched out his hand to Elton and made an invitation gesture: "Please, this gentleman come on stage and show us."

Elton walked out of his seat, then nodded and smiled at the people around him, then walked calmly to the podium step by step, quickly adjusted his state, and when he came to the podium, he was no longer there He lost the angry expression just now, with a trace of elegance and calmness on his face. He still held the microphone, stood next to Wang Qian, and said to everyone: "This Mr. Wang from China said that my talent is too poor. I think I need to prove myself, and prove to my school and teachers, that they were not blind when they chose me.”

At this time, Elton also made a small joke.

Telling jokes to liven up the atmosphere is almost a social instinct for many people in Europe and the United States, and it is also a necessary skill.

There was a small round of applause at the scene, and many alumni who knew Elton or were graduates of Manhattan College gave him applause.

Then, many other European and American music artists also applauded Elton with dignity.

The applause was very warm, much louder than when Wang Qian came on the stage just now. Many people applauded vigorously, which was completely different from the indifferent look when they applauded Wang Qian just now.

Everyone supports Elton to prove his talent and strength, and he also proves it for everyone.

Elton was very satisfied with everyone's applause, and then turned around and glanced at Wang Qian proudly. The meaning was obvious - you saw that I am more popular than you here, right?

As a result, Elton saw that Wang Qian was also applauding him gently, with a smile on his face, as if he didn't care about everything that happened, and he seemed to support and encourage him.

This made Elton stunned for a moment, and he looked at Wang Qian carefully, trying to see if Wang Qian was pretending and if there was anger and tension in his eyes!

Then he was disappointed.

What he saw from Wang Qian's face and eyes was only smile and expectation, and an absolute self-confidence from the bottom of his heart.

This kind of self-confidence was something he didn’t even have, and it made him feel a little ashamed for this kind of self-confidence!

Because he doesn't have this kind of confidence.

Elton was slightly shocked, and then said: "Thank you everyone for the applause and encouragement. Mr. Wang Qian questioned my talent, so I want to play a very difficult piece of music for you here to prove it. Do you agree with my talent and strength? ”

There were some responses from the audience.

"Agree!"

"There is no doubt about Mr. Elton's strength."

"Welcome!"

"Elton, let's play a pirate song!"

"Elton, let's sing a storm."

"Wang Qian's own song "Flight of the Bumblebee."

Some people who have a good relationship with Elton started to interact with each other.

Elton looked at Wang Qian: "Mr. Wang, do you mind if I play a piece of music?"

Wang Qian stretched out his hand to the piano and said with a smile: "Of course I don't mind. To be honest, I'm also looking forward to Mr. Elton's performance! We are all musicians, and using music to dialogue is the most interesting thing. things."

Elton looked at Wang Qian and felt from Wang Qian the aura of a great artist, absolute confidence, elegance and light from the depths of his soul!

Yes, there is a feeling of light.

It seems that Wang Qian’s body is radiating light!

Hiss!

My heart took a deep breath.

Elton was slightly shocked. This kind of aura was something he never dared to imagine in his dreams. It was the perfect aura imagined by the artist.

He has met almost all the music artists in the world, including the top ten pianists, top ten violinists, top ten conductors, etc., he has been exposed to them all.

However, no top artist in the world has such a perfect, powerful and restrained aura as Wang Qian!

From a distance, he felt nothing, as if Wang Qian was ordinary and approachable.

However, upon closer inspection, he could deeply feel the aura of an artist that directly touched the depths of his soul!

The more he watched, the more he was infected by the rich artistic atmosphere, and the richer the musical perception in his heart became. Unconsciously, he was assimilated by the aura of the music artist in Wang Qian, which made him feel unconvinced. , anger, and the complex psychology of finding faults gradually melted away, and what was left was purely thinking about music!

Just looking at Wang Qian for a few seconds, Elton found that he seemed to be purified by Wang Qian.

Look away quickly.

Elton took a deep breath to calm himself down, and then he quickly and truly calmed down, completely immersed in the performance!

This

Elton slowly walked to the piano and sat down, feeling slightly shocked again!

This state

Almost the most perfect state during his performance.

Every time he performed before, it took several days of adjustment and deliberation to achieve this state during the performance and then produce the most desired live effect.

Available now

He fell into this state almost immediately.

Without a long period of deliberation and realization, I naturally entered the state immediately.

This made him feel amazing.

Then

He looked at Wang Qian again and saw the warm smile on Wang Qian's face and the slightly encouraging look in his eyes. He once again felt an inexplicable warmth rushing through his heart. His condition was better than ever. At that moment, his hands were He suddenly pressed the piano keys.

Dangdangdang

A violent opening piano sound sounded.

Wang Qian pricked up his ears and listened, his eyes watching Elton's performance.

Elton entered performance mode in an unprecedented state.

Wang Qian also sounded confident when listening and looked attentively.

The scene fell silent again!

However, many people still showed a hint of surprise in their eyes!

Because

Elton's performance exceeded the expectations of all those who were familiar with Elton.

Next to Elton's seat sat Mars, his old classmate at the Manhattan School of Music. Mars looked at Elton playing with surprise in his eyes, and said to the old classmate on the other side: "I didn't expect that Elton would be like this. There has been so much progress in just a few years. God, the intro to this Pirate Rhapsody was played almost perfectly."

Mars has not heard Elton's performance for five years, so he feels that Elton's performance has improved so much now compared to five years ago, and is almost reaching the level of a world master, which makes him very urgent. Feeling and shame.

An old classmate who graduated from the Manhattan School of Music said: "Yes, I can't believe it either. In fact, I just listened to Elton's performance last month, and he didn't have such a good performance level at that time. This pirate rhapsody was performed without any flaws."

After hearing this, several people around him nodded lightly.

Nearly all of them sitting together knew each other. Most of the people in this area were alumni from Manhattan College, so they were familiar with each other, and they were even more familiar with the world-famous song "Pirates' Rhapsody".

This piece is one of the top ten most difficult piano pieces in the world, and it is also one of the indispensable pieces for many pianists to hold concerts. It is relatively pleasant to listen to, yet very difficult, and can prove their own level.

And this song also has a very good symbolic meaning, symbolizing the signs of the great European immigration era hundreds of years ago, and also symbolizing the violent and **** days of European immigration that started as pirates.

So!

This song is emotionally charged and fast-paced, just like the storm in another song, but it also has an obvious smell of blood and the low tone of death!

After all!

Pirates symbolize conquest and plunder, bringing blood and death, not peace.

Max, the dean of the Piano School at Juilliard School, looked at Elton and frowned slightly, and said to Malone beside him: "I heard a small performance by a philharmonic orchestra in New York three days ago. Elsa rested It was Elton who played the piano. Coincidentally, the complete version of this piece was played at that time. There was a clear difference between Elton’s performance at that time and now. It’s hard to believe that he improved so much in just three days. "More."

Ma Long did not take his eyes off Wang Qian and Elton on the podium, and said softly: "There are two possibilities. One is that Elton may have suddenly understood some of the inner meaning of this piece of music in the past two days, so when he played Great progress. Another possibility is that Wang Qian had an impact on him!"

Max shook his head slightly: "Elton's technique has become perfect. The only flaw is that he doesn't have enough inner understanding of the music and the piano, and his emotions are not infectious enough. Maybe he is still too young, and he doesn't have enough experience and thinking. . I don’t believe he can make up for this shortcoming in just a few days, it will take time.”

Ma Long: "So, maybe it was this Wang Qian from China who influenced him."

Max squinted his eyes and looked at Wang Qian carefully.

Ma Long also put aside some of his prejudices and began to stare at Wang Qian carefully.

The two world-class older generation music artists looked at Wang Qian, and the more they looked at him, the more they felt in their mood!

Because, the more they looked carefully, they found that they were unconsciously affected by the aura on Wang Qian's body, and the whole person became calm and focused!

The two old men looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes. Then they quickly calmed down and continued to listen to Elton's performance and continued to stare at Wang Qian to discover the secrets in him.

This piece was originally a very long piano concerto and is often performed by many well-known orchestras.

However, when playing piano solo, you will only play a short section of the climax, which is also the most difficult part, to show off your skills.

So!

Only five minutes.

No one in the audience spoke anymore.

Stared and listened to Elton for five minutes.

Elton was completely immersed in this piece of music. When playing, he pressed the keys with both hands and waved them powerfully, like a pirate standing on the deck wielding a sword. The expression on his face was occasionally ferocious. And cruel, like pirates fighting and plundering at sea

This emotion is integrated into the piano and music.

Many people who listen to music live feel the same way.

When the last note falls.

Elton's hands instinctively stopped, but he was still immersed in the artistic conception of the piano music. He sat in front of the piano and stared at the piano in a daze.

However, everyone at the scene quickly woke up, and many alumni from the Manhattan School of Music and their friends applauded vigorously!

Papa, papa, papa

The applause rang out.

Extremely enthusiastic!

Almost everyone was full of admiration and sincerely gave their warmest applause.

Even though the teachers, students and alumni of several other colleges did not have a good relationship with Manhattan College, they sincerely gave Elton their own applause at this moment, recognizing that Elton’s performance this time was indeed very good. wonderful.

Visiting groups from the three major music academies in China also applauded enthusiastically.

He Chaohui said in a low voice: "I have to say that Elton's level is really high. I can't get this feeling when playing this Pirate Rhapsody. I've only heard this in China. Excellent performance! ”

Yang Jiansen said: "He is worthy of being a top student who graduated from Manhattan College. He has been making progress for more than 20 years after graduating. He is now the second pianist of the New York Philharmonic Orchestra. The Philharmonic Orchestra is truly worthy of being the top orchestra in the world. In this way A good pianist can only be the second substitute pianist."

Peng Donghu said slightly worriedly: "What are Professor Wang going to say? Look at how Elton got angry. If you just play this piece of music, I don't think anyone can play it better than this, even Professor Wang." No matter how good your performance is, it’s just about the same at best”

Peng Donghu’s words silenced everyone from the three major colleges present.

Coming out of the artistic conception of the music, they knew that they would face the most realistic problems next.

Although Elton is of extremely high standard and played this piece of music almost perfectly, he is his enemy

Elton came on stage not to perform for everyone, but to prove himself and to challenge Wang Qian!

What will he do with such a superb performance?

Can Wang Qian cope?

Everyone's face was full of worry.

Qin Xuerong, Qin Xuehong, and Liu Shengnan all had pretty and nervous faces.

However, after looking at Wang Qian, everyone calmed down a little.

Because!

Wang Qian on the podium was still smiling and applauded along with everyone else. He also applauded enthusiastically and gave Elton the applause.

Sophie whispered: "This Elton is extraordinary. He held a small concert in France last year, and my father took me to support him. He also played this piece at that time, but it was far away. It’s not up to the current level. He really performed exceptionally well this time and was so lucky.”

Taylor has never heard Elton's performance, but he roughly knows that this person's level is definitely not up to the level of a world-class master. At most, it is the level of a well-known pianist, and ordinary well-known pianists cannot perform as well as he just did. Such artistic conception is definitely at the level of a world-class master.

If Elton really has this level, he will not be the second piano of the Philharmonic Orchestra. Even if he cannot completely replace Elsa, he is definitely qualified to compete fairly with Elsa, or he may go to other places. The big band strives for the lead pianist and will not be willing to be a substitute.

Taylor frowned and said: "Maybe he suddenly had a feeling and performed beyond normal. I don't know what he will ask for"

The two of them were also worried that it would be extremely difficult for Elton to attack Wang Qian in this state.

Many other audiences at the scene no longer had worried expressions. Most of them had expressions of gloating and looking forward to watching the show, looking forward to how this kid from China would end up next.

You said I have no talent?

That person played this difficult piece of music at the level of a world-class master in the blink of an eye!

What do you say?

Applause!

It lasted for nearly a minute.

Everyone’s applause was extremely warm and lasting.

This is because some Manhattan College alumni deliberately set the pace and continued the applause for so long to show their differential treatment of Wang Qian.

See it

We only give warm applause to true masters of music.

So you didn’t get any applause at first

Unspoken meaning!

Everyone understands.

When the applause gradually stopped.

Elton slowly stood up from the piano. There was no anger or trouble-making emotion on his face at the beginning. Instead, there was only a kind of calm thinking and heartfelt gratitude!

This is the realm that Elton has been pursuing. He originally thought that he would need at least ten years of accumulation to achieve it, but now he has achieved it under the influence of Wang Qian.

Everyone calmed down and looked at Elton, a little surprised that Elton was not as proud as they thought and immediately attacked Wang Qian!

Elton stood up and bowed politely to everyone. Then under everyone's shocked eyes, he turned to Wang Qian who was standing next to him, bowed lightly, and said softly: "Thank you very much for your guidance just now. I gained a lot from it."

Thousands of pairs of eyes stared at this scene, and many people had dull eyes. It was obvious that they did not expect such a scene to happen, and they could not accept that such a thing would happen!

What about the planned attack?

What are you going to do on stage?

What does it mean when you bow and thank someone in the blink of an eye?

Advice?

What advice did he give you?

Obviously you walked onto the stage aggressively, and then neither of you said a word!

There was no conversation about this song!

Any advice?

What did you point out?

Thousands of people have this question in their minds. Many people are emotional and want to say something, but they have not said it.

Marlon and Max looked at each other, and both saw the confusion in each other's eyes. Both of them could roughly understand what Elton said, and they could also roughly guess what happened on the podium just now.

However, the two of them were still a little unconvinced, so they did not continue talking, but just watched, wanting to see more facts to prove their guesses.

Several other world-class master musicians who are similar to Malone and Max also have a little thoughtful expression on their faces, and they have obviously thought of something!

However, among the thousands of people present, only no more than ten people understood something.

No one else knew what happened.

Even He Chaohui, Yang Jiansen, and Peng Donghu didn't know what happened. They looked at each other and looked at each other in confusion.

Qin Xuerong, Qin Xuehong, Liu Shengnan, Xiao Dongmei, Ruke, Chen Xiaowen, etc. all looked puzzled!

Taylor, Sophie, Chiba Zhenju, and Nakamori Miyuki looked at each other, frowning and thinking about what Elton meant by that.

Then, everyone still stared at the two people on the podium.

I saw that Wang Qian accepted Elton’s etiquette very calmly, thanked him, and said softly: "You don’t need to thank me. It was you who accumulated it to this extent, and then under my guidance, you did it." Such a performance. Therefore, you must have enough foundation to do it."

A smile appeared on Elton's face, then he looked at Wang Qian and said: "So, sir, you admit my talent, right? Do you admit that what you just said was wrong?"

At this time, Elton still did not forget the purpose of coming to the stage.

Wang Qian said that he has poor talent, which he absolutely cannot tolerate.

So, he still has to prove himself!

With a performance of this caliber, you can’t say he’s less talented, right?

Of all the pianists in the world, who can play more perfectly than he just did?

Elton looked at Wang Qian, expecting Wang Qian to recognize his talent and admit his mistakes!

Then, he still won!

Although, he was grateful for the help Wang Qian gave him just now.

However, he still has to defend the dignity and honor of himself, the school and his teachers.

But.

Wang Qian looked at all the quiet spectators at the scene, shook his head gently and said: "No, Mr. Elton. It's just because you didn't have enough talent that you couldn't do it before. You did it with my help." Yes, if you were talented enough, you would have done it long ago. By the way, can I ask what the song you just played is called?"

Elton was stunned for a moment, then frowned.

He was thinking about refuting Wang Qian's words, but he couldn't think of a point to refute at once, because he really couldn't do it before. It was indeed under the influence of Wang Qian that he quickly entered the state and performed exceptionally.

However

What did he ask?

What's the name of the song?

Elton frowned and looked at Wang Qian: "Mr. Wang, don't you know what this piece of music is called?"

Wang Qian looked at Elton calmly: "Yes, I don't know. This is my first time listening to this piece of music. Although it is a great piece of music and your performance is also wonderful, But this is indeed my first time listening to it.”

The quiet scene was once again in an uproar.

Anger and disbelief appeared on many faces.

"Impossible, he has never heard of Pirate Rhapsody, how did he learn the piano?"

"He's joking!"

"Maybe it's true, because he hasn't studied music systematically."

"He's insulting us!"

"He is insulting the piano"

"Drive him away, I don't want to see him, he doesn't deserve to be there to teach us music, he doesn't deserve it!"

Many people suddenly became angry, thinking that people who don’t even know this piece of music have the right to tell them about music? What qualifications do you have to stand on it?

Among the thousands of people present, most of them graduated from several prestigious universities and could easily listen to world-renowned music.

Professor Dawson said to Max and Malone: ​​"When I first met him, he said he had never heard of storms. I was shocked at the time. Then, I believed him."

Ma Long asked seriously: "Has he really not studied music systematically? Hasn't he really practiced these pieces?"

Max and several music and art masters around him also looked at Professor Dawson curiously, wanting to know more information about Wang Qian from Professor Dawson.

Professor Dawson said softly: "I don't think he is telling lies. The songs he played at the beginning were all named after etudes, which he wrote when he was practicing piano. They are specially used for practicing by himself, so they are all his own etudes."

Max, Malone, and several other big names in European and American music and art were slightly shocked when they heard this, but at the same time they really didn’t believe it and couldn’t believe it.

Because this is so unbelievable.

There is no systematic study, no practice of world-famous music, so you just practice out of thin air based on basic knowledge, write etudes out of thin air, and then achieve such a level? He also wrote To Xuerong, Magic City March, Girl's Prayer, Dream Wedding, Flight of the Bumblebee, Magic City Rhapsody, such wonderful and beautiful songs?

Can't believe it.

Even though they had seen these messages from Wang Qian's information on the Internet before, they just laughed it off and didn't believe it at all. They felt that the official voice of The Voice deliberately wrote this to sensationalize!

But now, Professor Dawson has said this, and they have to think carefully about its authenticity.

Professor Dawson’s character and credibility are trustworthy.

On the podium, Elton stared at Wang Qian with wide eyes and replied: "This pirate march is a famous piano piece from two hundred years ago"

Elton also wants to explain in more detail.

However, Wang Qian interrupted him directly: "Oh, it is called the Pirate March, and it really deserves its name. Mr. Elton, don't you want to see what talent and strength are?"

Elton looked at Wang Qian, but he had not yet recovered.

Under his gaze, as well as the gazes of thousands of people in the audience, Wang Qian walked to the piano, sat down, and said softly: "Believe me, this is the first time I have heard this piece of music. It’s also my first time playing!”

Then

Under everyone's gaze.

Wang Qian stretched out his hands and suddenly hit the piano keys.

The violent notes spread throughout the audience instantly!

The violent storm and fierce fighting suddenly appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

Just a few notes of the prelude directly sketched out in everyone's minds the scene of a pirate battle in a storm, violent and tragic.

Compared with Elton's performance just now, it is more violent and clear, the emotion is more intense, the picture is clearer, and the sense of substitution is stronger.

Elton just stood there, staring straight at Wang Qian.

Because!

He saw.

Wang Qian has closed his eyes.

And!

He also saw.

Wang Qian’s left hand just pressed firmly on the two keys on the left, while his right hand moved crazily to press most of the keys

This

This

This is almost like playing with one hand!

His eyes are still closed.

Except for the two keys that his right hand could not reach because the tempo was too fast, Wang Qian completed all the other notes with his right hand.

And.

No errors have occurred yet.

Moreover, the rhythm and emotions are extremely perfect!

Elton felt that it was even more perfect than his performance just now.

The tragedy and violence are clearer and more bloody, and among the **** and violent emotions, there is also a kind of faint joy, creating a sense of joy in looking forward to a good harvest!

This

This

This

Elton was hit hard.

Every note and every movement of Wang Qian hit his heart like a sledgehammer, making his face turn slightly pale!

This

Is it just talent?

Thousands of people were present!

It was even more silent.

All the comments just now disappeared completely.

The anger and doubts on many people’s faces just now disappeared completely.

The rest is immersion, appreciation, and a lot of disbelief!

Some spectators in the front row looked even more shocked, because they were very close and could see Wang Qian's playing process more clearly, as well as Wang Qian's superb playing skills.

The program team very thoughtfully projected the filming footage onto the curtain behind.

Then

Everyone in the audience could clearly see every detail of Wang Qian's performance.

So!

Everyone in the audience became even quieter.

Many viewers in the back felt it was much harder to breathe!

This is an ultra-difficult performance that almost no one at the scene can do, nor have they ever imagined.

While maintaining such ultra-difficult skills, it can also express emotions flawlessly, giving every audience a strong sense of involvement!

It seems that the whole piece of music is much better and more attractive than what Elton played just now. What you hear is not individual notes, but clear pictures.

All of North America, and even many people around the world who watched this TV show, fell silent in front of the TV.

Even the major social platforms seem to be much quieter at this moment.

Everyone!

At this moment, everyone was looking at the player with his eyes closed, his left hand fixed on the two keys, and his right hand moving wildly, almost turning into a shadow.

The storm was violent and bloody.

After the end

It is a joyful harvest.
