world number one pianist

Chapter 215 Hua Guo, He Shen!
Anastasia Yasko, pianist of Xiongguo.

Although she is relatively small, she is actually the same as He Shen, reaching the age of participating in the Chopin International Piano Competition for the last time.

She knew He Shen, and she knew that He Shen was one of the best players in the qualifying round.

Although it is said that He Shen's score is only No.5, but fortunately, the results of the qualifiers are not counted as points, only the results of the main race are officially counted.

A top five player said to himself, don't be nervous?
One thing to say, Yasco became even more nervous...

She walked out of the preparation room quickly, and went to the waiting room on the side, panting continuously, and crossed herself with her fingers in front of her.

Try to use this simplest method, so that you can relieve your inner tension.

However, it is obvious that the effect is not good, it can only be said to be average.

She was still a little nervous.

Jasco took a deep breath, then let it out slowly.

After taking several deep breaths in a row, she finally calmed down.

This room was very quiet, only the sound of the player in front of her playing, echoing around her constantly.

The surrounding reporters, cameras, and staff all stayed aside very quietly, not giving her any pressure.

Now everyone knows that the players who are preparing for the competition are under the greatest pressure, especially those who have only one last chance, and they also represent the hoped players of a certain country.

She quietly listened to the performance of the previous contestant, and couldn't help but feel a little bored for a moment, so bored that she couldn't speak, she couldn't help but get up immediately, and walked slowly in this room.

"Jasko, Yasco, you can do it, don't be nervous!"

"You have practiced so many times, you have defeated hundreds of people and become the last 80 people, what are you afraid of?"

"Come on, don't be nervous, don't be nervous..."

Yasco's walking speed in this lounge is getting faster and faster, almost approaching the speed of brisk walking.

There was no intention of stopping at all.

She's very nervous right now, very, very nervous...

This is the top music competition in the world. If I can successfully win the ranking in this competition, then my performance career in the future...

Yasco's eyes could not help but light up slightly, and his pace gradually slowed down.

Now she no longer thinks about how she should play this game in her mind.

What she thinks now is very simple, which is what she should do after the game.

Only in this way can you relax a little bit in front of yourself.

If she continued to be so tense, she felt that she might have quit the competition early before she even got on stage.

My own spirit is too tense!

This is not very good for playing music...

Jasco stood still slowly, took another deep breath, and looked at the wall of the house.

The walls are all small red squares filled with thick sound-absorbing cotton, making the whole room extremely quiet.

She walked to a small stool on the side, sat down slowly, looked at the incandescent lamp above her head, and couldn't help laughing.

"When a game is over, I will never participate in the game again..."

"Competitions will only destroy the humanity of all contestants, and it will be difficult for us contestants to play very well."

"So, I won't continue to participate in any pianist competitions..."

"However, if I win, do I want to go fishing for salmon on the shore of Lake Baikal?"

"Or do you want to go to other places, such as Huaguo? I heard that Huaguo Chuanzhou hot pot is very good. Many of my friends like to eat it. I really want to try it when I have time..."

"There are still many places that I haven't visited yet. When the competition is over, I will never go to the competition again!"

"We must go to various places in the world to take a good look, take a good look around, and see the world."

"It feels like that's the only way to be considered, making music?"

Yasco sat on the chair, stared at the ceiling in a daze, trying to relax his spirit as much as possible.

What He Shen from the country of Hua said before was right, he was too nervous, too nervous.

Sure enough, now I have relaxed a lot, and my whole body has become much more relaxed, and I don't have to worry about this game anymore.

Thinking of this place, Jasco couldn't help but smile slightly.

Now she doesn't know whether her brain is tense or relaxed.

She doesn't dare to think about anything now, and feels that if she continues to think about something like this, her spirit may collapse directly.

Time passed by in her daze.

dong dong dong...

Suddenly there were two knocks on the door outside the waiting room, and a staff member spoke outside.

"Contestant No. [-], the previous contestant is nearing completion, please come out and prepare."

"..."

Yasco heard the sound outside, and his head, which was originally very calm, suddenly fluctuated again.

She forced herself to hide the emotions that were constantly surging in her heart as much as possible, and hid them in her heart, so that she would not go out to the game just like this.

Yasco waited for a while, and when the staff at the door knocked on the door for the second time, she nodded slowly and said.

"Okay, I'll be right here."

Jasco got up from the chair, picked up a black hand towel, and wiped the sweat from his palms.

She suddenly discovered that she was not completely free from nervousness, she was still nervous now, and there were countless sweats in her tense palms.

The sweat gathered in the palm of her hand, making her whole hand look wet.

She spread out the hand towel, spread it on her palm, and tightened it slightly.

Then, taking a deep breath, he got up and opened the door.

The moment she pushed open the door, the guns and short guns outside were aimed at her figure, her face.

It seems that everything on her is going to be recorded in the camera.

Including, all her emotions.

Yasco looked at the camera in front of him and smiled slightly.

The extremely nervous expression in the lounge before has completely dissipated.

Now she is a professional pianist!
All she has to do now is to try to give her best interpretation in this professional competition.

The staff looked at Yasko, not at her particularly indifferent expression, but at her hands.

Her hands were unknowingly knitting the black hand towel, making extremely deep folds in that piece of cloth.

She is nervous!

The staff stared blankly for a moment, but quickly shook their heads.

It's the biggest competition in the world, equivalent to an Olympic-level competition.

There are only a handful of times a person can participate in a lifetime.

The tallest one is about two times.

Really very few people can participate in the third time.

The contestant in front of her is now her last chance. If she fails, this road to heaven will be completely blocked to her.

It is understandable for other people not to be nervous, but it is basically impossible for this person not to be nervous.

As long as she cared about her own career, she was bound to be nervous.

clatter……

clatter……

clatter……

Reminded by the staff, He Shen walked out from the player lounge at the back and walked to the door of the personal lounge. Looking at Yasco, who was caught by the door with a long gun and a short cannon, He Shen couldn't help shaking his head slightly.

He had reminded the girl before that she should not be too nervous.

Now it seems that she didn't pay attention.

Since she didn't pay attention to it herself, there was no need for her to remind her more.

He Shen walked directly behind Yasi Ke, walked into the waiting room for the players, and waited for his round.

Yasco stood at the backstage door of the concert hall, looking at the closed door in front of him, completely oblivious to He Shen walking behind him.

Even if she noticed, though, she probably wouldn't care.

After all, the most important thing now is the competition!

This is the last chance in my life to rise to the top!

The last chance for the carp to jump over the dragon's gate!

Whether you can become the one who successfully wins the laurels among the tens of millions of piano children in the world depends on today!

Jasco took another deep breath.

boom!
The applause on the stage suddenly sounded, and it sounded like it should be the player in front, who had already finished playing.

The staff standing on the side also heard the sound on the stage, tapped their earphones, and seemed to be listening to the guidance above.

After waiting for a while, the door of the concert hall was slowly opened.

A gray wall appeared in front of her.

And the contestant in front also came down from the stage amidst the applause of the crowd, smiled at Yasco, turned and left the backstage.

Now, it's me!

Yasco glanced at the other people around him, took a deep breath again, let himself not be too nervous, and raised his legs to enter the stage.

"Sorry, please wait!"

Just when she was about to go on stage, the staff standing beside her reached out to stop her, pointed to the stage, and motioned.

"Wait for the staff to announce, and you can go up after the announcement!"

"it is good……"

Yasco took a step back slightly to give way to the space, and the voices of the staff above also sounded slowly.

"The next contestant, Xiong Guo, Anastasia Yasco!"

"Piano Choice: Steinway D274"

"Repertoire: Chopin's Nocturne in F sharp minor, OP48, No.2"

"Chopin Etudes in F Major, Op10, No8"

"Chopin Etudes in A minor, Op10, No2"

"Chopin's Scherzo in C sharp minor, Op. 39"

boom!
Applause rang out from the stage, and Yasco paused for a moment. After seeing the staff on the side nodding to her, he got up, jumped a few times on the spot, stretched his shoulders, and walked up the steps. stage in the concert hall.

The lights in the concert hall were bright, and everyone was applauding vigorously.

The judges, sitting at the front of the second floor, looked down at her and waited for her performance.

Seeing so many people, Yasco let the emotions in his heart slowly suppress, quickly walked to the edge of the piano, bowed his head slightly to the crowd.

Whoa!
There was another round of applause.

Amid the applause of these people, Yasco sat on the piano bench, picked up the black hand towel, and quickly wiped off the sweat on his hands.

Then, he put the hand towel on the piano, adjusted the seats, and nodded slightly to everyone.

The concert hall gradually became quiet...

Yasco sat on the seat, raised his head to the ceiling, and closed his eyes.

Chopin, what is it like?
In what way should I interpret Chopin?

These things quickly passed through Jasco's heart, and she made her state of mind gradually approach the state of mind when Chopin interpreted the works.

In the concert hall, no one made a sound, they were all waiting for Jasco's performance.

Gradually, emotions gradually surged and echoed in her heart.

Gradually she grasped the slightest hint of Chopin's feeling.

Yasco opened his eyes, took a deep breath, raised his arms, and placed them on the piano keyboard.

Let your arms slowly suppress the sound of the piano.

hum...

A beautiful voice came out.

Yasco suppressed the tension in his heart and gradually merged himself with the piano and Chopin.

music, flow...

Flowing slowly among the piano.

The voice is incomparably beautiful and beautiful.

Although, among all the contestants, her voice is not the most beautiful, but...

It has surpassed most of the players.

It was just the beginning, and she already had a trace of the demeanor of a professional pianist.

Everyone immediately let go of their nervousness and watched her performance with a smile.

Let yourself sit on the piano bench and enjoy her performance.

Enjoy, music!
Yasco also seemed to have gradually forgotten the tension. She smiled and let her hands flow quickly on the piano.

Music, likewise, flows with her hands.

All the judges in the back couldn't help nodding slightly to this contestant.

This feeling is okay.

In that miserable state.

Next, it depends on how she plays afterwards.

If she can keep playing at this level, then she can definitely cross the line.

All the judges looked at each other and couldn't help chuckling together when they saw what the other judges were thinking.

For this player, it seems that their thoughts are the same.

For a moment, everyone leaned their bodies on their backs, enjoying the music and the piece played by the contestant named Yasco in front of him.

Jasco, also immersed himself in the music, gave up other influences and interferences around him, and just played so easily.

She also gradually began to enjoy music.

Time passed by so quickly, and the first work came to an end in an extremely warm process.

There was a slight smile on Jasco's mouth.

Now, she should enter the next round of the Chopin International Competition, and she will be more stable.

The performance of this piece of my own is actually pretty good.

No, I can't say it's good. My own work is already great!
Next, is the second work!
Yasco put his hand down, closed his eyes again, and slowly thought about what he wanted to interpret in his music, so as to slow down his mood a little.

Then, he raised his finger and pressed it down extremely lightly.

hum...

The feeling that belongs exclusively to the F major key came out of her hands in an instant.

The moment the sound came out, almost everyone couldn't help laughing.

This contestant, if she didn't guess wrong, she should be stable.

The interpretation of this work is also at the passing level.

The level is really, really good.

At this time, several judges had even given scores in advance.

19 points, a passing score.

Everyone believes that Yasco is stable, and she will definitely be able to enter the semi-finals.

Go to the second round.

Jasco thought the same.

The corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and she closed her eyes again.

Change your inner emotions.

Her current schedule is over halfway.

A total of more than 20 minutes and nearly 30 minutes of performance, she has already interpreted more than half of it, and she is only a little bit short of the last!
Just short, the last bit!

"If this game is over, maybe I can go back and have a good rest?"

Such a thought suddenly flashed in Jasco's mind.

But soon, she shook her head, put the thought aside, and let herself gather her spirit again.

At this time, it is not the time to think about other things at all. The most important thing now is to interpret the work well.

As much as possible, don't make any mistakes.

Yasco took a deep breath, raised his hand, and pressed it down violently.

Whoa!
The sound of the piano appeared incomparably swiftly. This beginning immediately made everyone nod again.

This interpretation is very good!
It seems that the 4 works and the 3 works are all very good works, so this contestant, if he guesses correctly, can definitely enter the next round.

Absolutely professional playing.

Including, Yasco thinks so too!
however……

thump...

The wrong pronunciation appeared, Yasko's face suddenly froze.

She looked at her hand and didn't react for a while.

I...did I play the wrong note just now?
etc?I...wrong pronunciation?

No, no, it's not a problem of wrong pronunciation. The question now is, what is behind the wrong pronunciation in this piece?
Jasco was stunned.

She didn't have any hesitation, because this work was only the beginning, she immediately pulled the work back to the beginning, and played it again.

Then, to no one's surprise...

She was wrong, she was wrong again!
Her voice was played wrong again!

Jasco's eyes widened suddenly, and her hands froze in the air.

She didn't know how many times she played this piece.

It wasn't about the difficulty of the piece. When she practiced alone, she really didn't know how many times she practiced. She had already practiced this piece sufficiently.

Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for me to make a mistake because it is too difficult.

But now...

Yasco looked around, feeling like he was in an abyss now, everyone was looking at her and laughing at her.

"Jasko, you played the wrong note!"

"Tsk tsk, you can play the wrong notes in this piece, you should go back quickly, don't even think about playing the piano!"

"Yasko, your career has stopped at this place, and you will never have any chance to improve!"

"Go back to Xiong Country, don't even think about playing the piano!"

"As a professional pianist, you are not worthy to play the piano!"

"..."

Yasco's pupils gradually tightened.

No, no, no...

What is the next sound?
What did you play just now?

I just played A minor, so what key should I go to now?
Is it to go to the fifth grade, to E major, or to E minor?

Or should I come to the relational tonality now, to C major?

Wait, no, no, no, no...

What key did I play just now?
Was he really in A minor just now?

Or is it that the current A minor is the fifth level, and I should return to the first level of the modulation now?
music, music...

What is music really like?
Jasco's hands were constantly experimenting on the piano, and her eyes gradually revealed a look of despair.

can't find...

She can't find it at all...

This work, this work she has practiced countless times, she has completely forgotten what melody she should play now...

Chopin, Chopin...

No, it is no longer a question of whether Chopin is not Chopin, but now it is me, what should I do next.

Yasco's arms became more and more stiff, and his whole body became more and more desperate.

She frantically tried, trying to find an exit, an exit that allowed her to continue playing.

However, she just played the wrong one, and now her mind is full of mistakes.

error.

error.

Still wrong.

All are mistakes!
She completely blocked her own path, and there was no chance of continuing to play.

Her life as a pianist is over...

Yasco raised his hand, reached out to pick up the hand towel placed on the piano in front of him, and wiped the sweat on his forehead and the sweat left on his face...

She stared blankly at the ceiling, the light in her eyes had already lost.

ended……

everything is over……

The competition is over, and my career as a pianist is also over...

Her nervousness, the nervousness caused by mistakes in her brain, made her lose the ability to continue thinking.

She doesn't have any thoughts in her mind now.

The whole person has completely froze in place.

She squeezed the hand towel in her hand, wiped her hands again, took three deep breaths, and then calmed herself down.

For her, the game was over, and no one would give another chance to a player who broke in the middle.

She has already received the death penalty from all the judges.

Then...

Yasco smiled miserably, and put the hand towel back on the piano.

That being the case, then don't worry about anything, and continue to play the last scherzo to the end.

As myself, the last funeral song.

It's also about your own life, joking?

She closed her eyes, rearranged her inner emotions, then raised her hand, and slowly pressed the first few notes of the Scherzo in C minor.

All the judges and all the audience looked at her without any expression in their eyes.

Everyone knew that she was finished, so what would she do next?

Continue to give up on yourself?still……

……

He Shen sat in the background, listening to Yasco's performance, and sighed slowly.

He already knew this would happen.

Sure enough, it was not beyond his imagination.

Jasco, she was so nervous, and then it was over...

but……

He Shen didn't wait for the staff to remind him, he stretched out his hand and pushed open the door of the lounge. Countless guns and short cannons gathered around him immediately, locking his expression firmly.

He Shen's expression didn't change in any way, he reached out and took out the hand towel that Ji Mengting gave him, and slowly wiped his hands.

Yasco's performance at the end was not bad. At the end, she had given up all her thoughts, put herself in a state of no desire and desire, and laughed at her failed performance.

In this way, the effect of her performance is even better.

If nothing goes wrong with her previous 10-2 practice, with this scherzo, she can definitely enter the next round without any doubts.

It's a pity... there is no if.

The sin she made herself, she can only bear by herself.

After the music ended, the staff in front of He Shen opened the door of the concert hall. Yasco walked down the steps slowly, glanced at He Shen in front of her, didn't speak, just lowered his head, and left the stage with a heavy weight .

If it's someone else, it's actually okay, their age may not be too much beyond the requirements of the game.

But Jasco had no chance, and she was completely defeated in her last match.

Her career as a pianist was cut off just like that.

Competition is so cruel.

He Shen glanced at Yasco, shook his head involuntarily, and turned to look at the door of the concert hall that opened in front of him.

At this moment, the staff on the stage had already raised the form in her hand and spoke to everyone.

"The next contestant, Hua Guo, He Shen!"
