world number one pianist

Chapter 154 Do You Think It's Over?No, this is just the beginning!
Yi Wen was stunned for a moment, never expecting that Ji Mengting would say that about him. Just when he was about to refute, Ji Mengting had already walked out of the stage door and onto the stage.

The lights on the stage were very bright, shining on Ji Mengting, making her extremely dazzling.

Everyone stared at Ji Mengting, even though it was already past eleven o'clock in the evening, everyone was already a little tired.

However, when they saw Ji Mengting, they immediately cheered up.

The main reason is that Ji Mengting's appearance at that time was so amazing that everyone looked forward to it.

They want to see what kind of works this beautiful girl can perform.

Is it superficial?Still have real strength?

Ji Mengting just glanced at the people around her, didn't say anything, and walked to the side of the piano, holding the piano with her left hand, bowed slightly, and saluted everyone.

Then, sit on the piano bench and quickly adjust the height of the seat and the distance between the front and back.

He took out the white cloth from the backstage and quickly wiped it on the piano keyboard.

After making sure that it was correct, she put her hand on the piano keyboard. After a short pause, her eyes suddenly focused, her hand raised, and then fell down.

boom!
An overweight chord in the left hand falls, and in an instant in the right hand, a series of extremely swift arpeggios rush upwards.

Chopin, works group Op10, work number one, piano etudes!
Psalm, fugitive song!
Her hands moved quickly on the piano, instantly cheering up everyone's slightly tired spirits as if they had been given a stimulant.

"This? This work?"

"Chopin's 10-1?"

"Wow, she actually chose this work! Amazing!"

Many people showed surprised looks.

The same is true for He Shen.

He looked at Ji Mengting in front of him with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Before that, he basically didn't tell Ji Mengting much about the music.

All things are basically relying on Ji Mengting to practice by herself.

He Shen just grasped her basic skills and pulled her into place.

Therefore, before this, He Shen didn't know what works Ji Mengting needed to play, but only knew that Ji Mengting made him feel at ease.

Now, he knows that the piece that Ji Mengting is going to perform is Chopin's etude!
That Chopin etude that I haven't fully unlocked the master level, but barely reached the professional level!

The corners of He Shen's mouth raised slightly, his body was no longer tense, but gradually relaxed, lying on the chair, looking at Ji Mengting with great interest.

Since you think you can reassure me, then...

Come on, let me see, after you follow me to lay a solid foundation, how strong are you just relying on yourself?

On the stage, Ji Mengting seemed to feel the gaze He Shen gave her, and her body tensed immediately.

Soon, she forced her body to gradually relax, her eyes fixed on the piano keyboard in front of her.

Chopin's piano etude, this work, basically everyone has heard it.

Not everyone in the world, but everyone in this concert hall.

In this concert hall, whether it is vocal music, wind music, or other music people, basically everyone has heard this work.

Chopin, Op10, No1, Psalm Fugitive.

C major, arpeggio ascending.

It looks like a very simple piece of work.

But the difficulty is not in the tone, or the technique of the arpeggio.

The difficulty of this is in the timbre and the position of the change!

Chopin's chant fugitive in C major is always in the process of transposing!

The tonality is constantly changing, and the feeling given by each tonality is also changing rapidly.

And, the music must never stop!
You can't stop the changing feeling every time you change the color and change it into another feeling.

Therefore, this work must be coherent and firmly move the fingers of the right hand.

Coupled with the extremely heavy bass of the left hand.

Together they constitute this fugitive chant!
When Ji Mengting just hit the first note, everyone's spirits were cheered up, and after Ji Mengting's right hand played the first complete arpeggio, everyone couldn't help but nodded, their eyes streamed. Showing a gleam of light.

"The beginning of this is quite good, and I am a little looking forward to how she will play next."

"That's right, the arpeggio at the beginning is quite beautiful and interesting, and it's starting to get interesting!"

"Have you noticed her left hand? Her left hand is actually playing a melody. The initial smashing down was actually paving the way for the rest."

"really……"

Some people from the primary school couldn't help but nodded their heads watching Ji Mengting's performance.

At least, looking at it this way, Ji Mengting will definitely not be like a vase on the surface.

It's not the kind of video bloggers who only have a good figure and good looks. Their kung fu is really good!
At least slap those vloggers online!
And, this is not the end, this is just the beginning.

Ji Mengting's next performance has only just begun!
After the last note of the first group fell, the strength of Ji Mengting's fingers changed immediately, and became a little bit lower. After slowly retracting the strength, her fingers immediately played the next group of chords .

From C major, go to A harmonic minor.

This change instantly makes the feeling of all the sounds different.

And just after the a harmonic minor was finished, the strength of her fingers brought about another change.

"No, that's not right!"

Suddenly someone's eyes lit up, and their eyes were firmly locked on Ji Mengting's long legs, looking at her beautiful curves covered by the long skirt!
It's not that the man suddenly developed a fever in his stomach, which affected his brain!
It's this person... He found something wrong with the tone.

If it is just an ordinary performance, each harmony has a tone, and it is easy to produce a sense of fragmentation!

However, Ji Mengting did not!

Just like the red and light red paintings are placed there, if they are played normally, anyone can find that there is actually a gap between them.

There is no similarity between the two, and there is no blend at all!
However, Ji Mengting's legs moved a little, she was stepping on the pedal, and the two changed gradually!

"This is it! Delay pedal! She is using the delay pedal to connect the notes in her hand!"

"My God, how deep is her teacher's foundation???"

Some were slightly shocked.

Pedal technique is difficult.

Most people only know one of the most basic pedals, that is, the sustain pedal, which is to step on it to make the sound extremely hollow and thorough.

Creates a reverb effect.

This pedal is very useful for beginners.

It is also useful for beginners.

After all, the effect of this kind of reverberation is really nice, and that kind of buzzing feeling is simply not too cool!
It is especially suitable for fishing in troubled waters and fooling yourself.

However, for advanced level people, it is not very easy to use.

Because this kind of sound is too muddy, all the sounds are completely mixed together, so it is impossible to tell whether the sound is good or bad.

Therefore, in order to make the sound clearer and more thorough.

Under the effect of this reverberation, the clear and thorough effect is enhanced, so that all the sounds can be separated.

Reverb alone.

For this purpose, the delay pedal was invented.

Play the note first, then depress the pedal.

When the next moment comes out, release the pedal, and then press it down again.

Let the sound of the previous note reverberate in the piano while making the next note extremely clear.

So that the sound effect of the overall sound sounds particularly thorough.

Every sound can achieve the effect of reverberation!

Through the technique of the pedals, coupled with the technique of the hands, Ji Mengting's performance gradually began to become magical.

"This arpeggio technique is scary, how could she have such an arpeggio technique at this age..."

"Her basic skills are too strong? Who is her teacher?"

"Jiangzhou Normal University Conservatory of Music...Jiangzhou Normal University Conservatory of Music? Wait, did someone say that she is from the Jiangzhou Normal University Conservatory of Music???"

"What Jiangzhou Normal University Conservatory of Music, what are you talking about? Who is in the Jiangzhou Normal University Conservatory of Music?"

"In the Music College of Jiangzhou Normal University, there is... He Shen!"

"How deep?"

"..."

"..."

"..."

The people who were talking in low voices became quiet for an instant. They carefully looked at Jiangzhou Normal University with a hint of shock gradually showing in their eyes.

"Wait, what are you talking about, how deep is that?"

"Yes, that's He Shen."

"He Shen, the winner of the Golden Piano Award, is extremely favored by Danyi?"

"Yes, that's right, it's him!"

"I rely on..."

Everyone really didn't know what to say, they looked at He Shen with complicated expressions.

"What the hell, why do some people have good piano skills and such strong teaching skills? Isn't this too scary?"

"That's right, why are you curling up like this? Just to mock us?"

"Yeah, and why, your student is so good-looking!"

"Yes! Based on..."

Everyone was going to join in the conversation and support that person, but they suddenly froze and looked at that person.

wait, it seems...

He is right?

The student is good-looking, and she is like a big lady, and she can play the piano well!
The teacher himself is strong, the winner of the Golden Piano Award, and is favored by the top professors in China!

This, what is this?Is this the winner in life?

Envious, too envious, this is too envious...

Pure life winner template ah!

Although, everyone knew that there was definitely no such relationship between He Shen and this student.

but!

Even if it doesn't matter, who wouldn't be envious of such a student?
Woohoo, I'm really envious.

Everyone looked at He Shen with envy, and the jealousy in their eyes was almost burning out.

He Shen didn't feel anything about it, he just looked at Ji Mengting on the stage indifferently, silently calculating in his heart, what went wrong with Ji Mengting.

For example, where she used the pedals in the wrong place.

There is a big difference between half stepping on the delay pedal and fully stepping on it.

And the timbre in some places is a bit unstable.

It doesn't show the timbre of any place well, and the characteristics it should have.

and so……

These are the areas where Ji Mengting's work can continue to improve.

Besides, He Shen touched his chin and shook his head slowly.

I don't know how long Ji Mengting practiced this piece, but she began to have some thoughts of her own.

If we simply discuss her work, she should have just reached Lv4 level, a little unstable.

In this case, she is slightly worse than the student from the Huaguo Conservatory of Music.

The problem now is, I don't know how long she practiced this piece.

If she was practicing along the way while learning the basic skills from herself, then there were still some fights.

Because I basically didn't teach Mengting too much, and I only taught her some basic skills about music.

But if she had practiced this piece for a long time, she would have started practicing it before entering school.

Then, it's really hard to say.

The guy from the Huaguo Conservatory of Music is called Yi Wen.

Although it looks like a fool, it doesn't look like playing the piano at all.

But his level is really not covered!People do have this strength, and they can be proud in front of everyone.

Ji Mengting didn't know what He Shen was thinking at all. All she thought about now was to keep working hard to make the music in her hands better and more beautiful!
Never, never, never, let your teacher lose face!
The breath in her heart made Ji Mengting feel more and more musical when she played this piece of music.

Her level had been fluctuating around Lv4 before, but gradually, she stagnated at Lv4 level, and then slowly climbed up.

This work of hers is no longer a work of Lv3-Lv4, but a work of Lv4!
He Shen watched Ji Mengting's performance and nodded silently.

When the others watched Ji Mengting's performance, their eyes almost popped out.

There was no trace of fatigue because it was too late.

Except for those who pay attention to Ji Mengting because she is so good-looking.

The tired spirits of the others became extremely energetic under the impact of Ji Mengting's wave after wave.

pity……

This piece is too short, not enough for Ji Mengting to be promoted from an ordinary Lv3 to Lv5.

This work is too short.

Ji Mengting slowly took her hand off the piano and let out a long breath.

By myself, I should play pretty well.

At least, I didn't lose face to my teacher.

and so……

Ji Mengting smiled suddenly, relaxed her hands, and put them on both sides of her body, raised her head slightly, letting the lights of the stage shine on her face.

Feeling the heat brought by the light, Ji Mengting's body became more and more relaxed.

The tiredness brought about by the mental tension before struck instantly.

For a while, she wanted to sleep on the stage like this.

But soon, she immediately shook her head to wake herself up, then stood up and saluted slightly to all the audience.

Whoa!
The applause from the stage was like thunder, and everyone was clapping hard for Ji Mengting's performance.

Without any exception, everyone is applauding.

"Good! It's a really good performance!"

"I didn't expect He Shen from Jiangzhou Normal University's Conservatory of Music to teach such a person. There will be a good show this year."

"That's right, the eight major music academies usually divide up the competition places. This year, Jiangzhou seems to want to take a share too?"

"Hahaha, it's interesting, I hope they can fight you to the death, let us see more excellent works!"

"..."

Everyone applauded while discussing Ji Mengting's performance, looking forward to her next works.

Ji Mengting looked at the people below the stage, especially He Shen's position, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but raised. She bowed vigorously towards He Shen's position, and then walked slowly towards the bottom of the stage.

With Ji Mengting's departure, the crowd in the audience seats also began to gradually disperse.

Tomorrow will be an even more brutal game.

They need a lot of time to prepare and strive for the best possible ranking.

If they have music colleges and music departments in these universities, they can get good rankings here.

Maybe we can get more funds in the future?

After all, this is not an ordinary competition. Behind this competition, there are many, many, particularly deep things in it.

However, He Shen didn't care, and neither did Ji Mengting.

They don't care about anything that requires deep thought.

After all, all thoughts are based on strength.

With strength, everything can be broken with force!

Ji Mengting walked off the stage, and when she was about to find He Shen, a particularly annoying person walked up to her.

With a hippie smile on his face, Yi Wen put his pockets in a dawdly manner, and said to Ji Mengting.

"You should have noticed it? Your playing is not as good as mine!"

"Everyone may enter the school at the same level, but now, you are not as good as me!"

"So, I am stronger than you!"

"Then, it also proves that my teacher's teaching level is better than yours!"

"Wait, I will prove that I am stronger than your teacher!"

"What winner of the Golden Piano Award? What is Dan Yi looking for?"

"For me, it's just an experience without any value!"

"What? Have you admitted defeat? Hahahahahahahaha"

Yi Wen laughed with his arms crossed.

Ji Mengting stopped in her footsteps. She didn't want to pay attention to Yi Wen at first, but now, he has already faced her directly and output to her teacher.

Then, you must respond to this too!

Ji Mengting looked at Yi Wen and said coldly.

"Do you think this is the end? No, this is just the beginning."

"From the beginning to the present, I have never received any little guidance from my teacher in terms of music. This piece of work has been taught by myself until now."

"And my teacher just taught me the basics."

"I use a piece of work that is all self-taught without a teacher's guidance, and it can be compared with your teacher's work that I don't know how many times."

"What does this mean, I don't need to say more?"

"If you want to prove that you are stronger than me, please crush me, instead of being complacent about being a little bit better than me."

"do you understand?"

"Next, I will prove how I will crush you when my teacher tutors me in music!"

After finishing speaking, she immediately passed by Yi Wen's side and walked outside.

Yi Wen's face froze instantly, he looked at Ji Mengting's leaving back, blinked his eyes, and scratched his right cheek.

After she completely disappeared, he put down his hand, squatted on the steps, and was in a daze.

His performance in the first round did not completely crush Ji Mengting, but only slightly surpassed Ji Mengting.

But with this kind of performance, his performance is not only the first in Huaguo Conservatory of Music, but even surpassed many sophomore and junior students.

As for the senior students?He doesn't know.

Because the senior students were rarely in the school, he didn't see much of those people's performances.

And this kind of performance is actually at the same level as Ji Mengting, who is only self-taught?
She is bragging?Did you say that on purpose for the sake of victory?

Yi Wen shook his head, although he is foolish, but he is very accurate at seeing people, Ji Mengting, he doesn't seem like such a person!

Then yourself...

Yi Wen thought about the lessons the teacher taught him after he entered school.

That's right, his teacher followed him a lot, and the content of this work helped him understand this work better.

While understanding this piece of work, I will improve his foundation by the way.

Therefore, he has reached the level he is now.

If so...

Thinking of this, Yi Wen immediately shook his head vigorously, clenched his hands into fists, and said to himself very firmly.

"No, no, Yi Wen, she lied to you, she didn't practice for a few days, she didn't study by herself!"

"This piece must have been produced by her after practicing a lot!"

"So, Yi Wen, you must not be discouraged like this, you must firmly believe that you are the strongest!"

"I... am the strongest!"

After Yi Wen said it to himself several times in a row, his eyes became extremely firm again, and the confidence that had been hit by Ji Mengting returned instantly.

He stood up from the steps, put his hands in his pockets, and continued to walk outside in a hurry.

However, in his incomparably firm gaze, it seemed that it was not firm.

For him, there were only the last two rounds of the game.

He must completely defeat Ji Mengting in these two rounds, and tell her that the Huaguo Conservatory of Music is the strongest!

However, there seemed to be a crack in his eyes.
