Chapter 234 Chopin Mazurkas, OP24-1, 2, 3, 4
Standing in front of the backstage door of the music, He Shen took a few quick breaths to let out the remaining tension in his heart, and stretched out his hand to pinch the hand towel with the words of Ji Mengting and three people printed on it.

Let the sweat in the palm of your hand be completely absorbed by this hand towel, making it extremely dry and smooth.

Now, for He Shen, this should be the most tense game.

In this game, if he can't get his score back, it will be even more difficult in the next round, which is the final round of finals.

If He Shen's guess is correct, everyone will choose the same work when it comes to the finals.

Chopin's First Piano Concerto.

That is, the piece that I play best.

Since the vast majority of contestants only need to prepare this piece, the difference among the works is required to be the greatest!
Showing the differences of each player to the greatest extent is the requirement of the last round.

Although He Shen's works in the last round of competition basically reached the peak of Lv10, for those judges, the difference is not particularly big.

After all, what he interpreted was Chopin's feeling.

Therefore, the possibility of pulling the score is very low.

And now, it is the best time to increase the score!

He Shen gently tugged on the collar in front of his throat, letting out the stale breath in his heart.

At this moment, the previous player had finished playing, and walked off the stage amidst the applause of the crowd.

He looked at He Shen, just bowed slightly, and didn't speak.

As for He Shen, he didn't say much. After he left, he stood upstairs and stretched his shoulders.

The surrounding cameras are all around him, capturing all his expressions, trying to show everything about him to all audiences.

He Shen didn't pay attention to the cameras around him, he just stood at the stairs and waited for a while, the voice of the staff slowly appeared.

"The fourth contestant, Hua Guo, He Shen!

Piano Choice: Fazioli F308!

Repertoire 24: Mazurka, Op. 1, Serial No. [-], in G minor
Repertoire 24, Mazurka, Op. 2, Sequence [-], in C major
Repertoire Three, Mazurka, Op. 24, Sequence No. 3, in A flat major
Repertoire 24, Mazurka, Op. 4, Sequence No. [-], in B flat major
Repertoire five, 24 Chopin piano preludes, number 28! "

As the voices of the staff ended, the applause immediately sounded from the stage.

However, in addition to the applause of these people, there were also whispers from some people.

"Huh? Wait, this is... Is this the first day of the third round and you started hitting all the songs?"

"Well, it's interesting. He Shen, who is No. [-] in China, played against Porter, who is No. [-] in Poland. Both of them have the same repertoire. Now it's really just to see who can play better!"

"I originally thought that the last round would completely hit the music, but I didn't expect to start to completely hit the work in the third round."

"If He Shen's performance was not as good as that Porter from Poland, he would have been eliminated directly, right?"

"Of course, but I think that He Shen's level is generally a little bit better than that of Porter from Poland. After all, he is now second in the total score, and he is only one point away from the first!"

"But it's not certain, He Shen's playing style is not in the same direction as Porter's. Maybe both of them can advance? After all, Porter's playing is really good!"

"Indeed, to be honest, I really don't want Potter or any of He Shenzhong to be eliminated directly."

"Yeah, unfortunately, this is a competition, now it's all about He Shen's performance..."

Everyone looked at He Shen, with a trace of strange expectation in their eyes.

They also hoped that He Shen could play better than Porter, and hoped that He Shen could not play as well as Porter.

After all, they want both to make it to the finals.

Standing behind the concert hall, Potter, who had just entered the music room, couldn't help being stunned at this moment, looking at He Shen with an extremely complicated expression.

He didn't know why He Shen told him to cheer up and encouraged him.

But now, he knows...

He Shen's strength is too strong!
He Shen, who is so strong, accidentally chose the same piece of work as him, which is exactly the same, without any difference.

If there is such a small gap, it is actually fine, and most people can accept it.

But all the works are exactly the same, so it's a pity...

They will be placed directly together for a direct comparison.

Compared with everyone, who will be better!
He looked at He Shen, couldn't help shaking his head slightly, sighed, found the steps and sat down, thinking about something.

He Shen didn't care about the gazes of these people. After waiting for the staff's voice, he straightened his clothes and walked towards the concert hall without any expression.

Surrounded by two or three cameras, He Shen walked to the center of the stage, held the piano with his left hand, and bowed slightly to the crowd.

Amid the applause of everyone, He Shen got up, sat on the piano bench, and adjusted the distance and height.

Then he took out a hand towel from his pocket, wiped the sweat off his hands again, and put it on the back of the piano after making sure his fingers were dry.

When the towel fell on the piano, there was obviously no sound, but in the entire concert hall, it seemed that the pause button was pressed, and everyone's voices disappeared.

Only the extremely subtle breathing of the crowd remained.

All of them put their eyes on He Shen's hand, waiting for He Shen's performance.

He Shen raised his head slightly, looked at the glowing ceiling above his head, and closed his eyes involuntarily.

The mood of music gradually began to brew in his heart.

The emotion that belongs exclusively to Chopin's Mazurka works for piano No. 24 is surging.

And, the magnitude is getting bigger and bigger.

He Shen stretched out his hand and put it on the piano keyboard. After taking a breath, he gave up the control on his arm and let his hand fall freely in the air!

However, just as it was about to fall, the moment it touched the keyboard, He Shen's force was instantly picked up, giving an upward force, offsetting part of the gravitational potential energy.

when……

The sound of the piano came out of the piano in an instant with an extremely mellow posture, and instantly spread to everyone in the concert hall.

hum...

With both hands of He Shen, he pressed the keyboard of the piano, followed the force of the hammer, and lightly hit the strings of the piano.

The sound waves rippling from the resonance of the three strings spewed out in the air instantly, reaching everyone's ears.

Music, let's start!

Chopin's Mazurka, in the period of No. 24, gave a new and completely different interpretation of Mazurka!

It can even be said that the bold piano composition skills used in this work have reshaped a completely different and brand-new Mazurka!
He Shen's hands ran quickly on the piano, and the music also flowed quickly with his running.

He Shen's interpretation of music is getting deeper and deeper.

Among the Mazurkas, the feeling that belongs to Mazurkas alone.

Among Chopin's Mazurkas, there is a feeling that belongs only to Chopin.

In the Mazurka counterpoint, there is a sense of harmony that belongs exclusively to it.

All the feelings are integrated together, and the music becomes particularly perfect in He Shen's interpretation.

He Shen's eyes were completely placed on his hands, and his spirit was extremely concentrated.

Looking at the music in his hands, he couldn't help clenching his teeth slightly.

FB, Lydia mode, augmented fourth characteristic interval, unique feeling of Lydia mode!

The stress position is at the position of the last retake at the end of each measure, this is a unique feature of Obelek dance music!
Double-phrase structure, the last beat of the second section adds a sixth-degree pentatonic-dominant seventh chord, this is an original music writing technique created by Chopin, known as the feeling of Chopin chords!

From the fifth-level chord to the second-level chord, that is, the reverse function of the subordinate chord to the subordinate parallel chord, this is the unique national dance language of Mazurka dance music.

The empty fifth is used to imitate the sound effect of the flute, and the special usage of Yiyin...

All the information appeared in He Shen's brain.

His brain began to work crazily, thinking about all the information in the music.

All the information in the music was sorted out, and finally attributed to my own hands, so that my hands could interpret all the things that should be in Chopin's music.

The music flowed through He Shen's ears, leaving only endless information.

The sense of harmony, the sense of phrase, the sense of melody...

Everything is under He Shen's control.

This extremely strong control made everyone's eyes widen slightly.

"Wait, what the hell? What is this?"

"The control, the incomparably precise and beautiful control, controls his own hands, and interprets all the musical effects he wants on the piano with incomparable accuracy!"

"This sound, this sense of technology!"

"No, the sense of technology is actually secondary. This player, he has tried his best to dissipate the sense of technology in the music. After all, it is difficult to hear his interpretation. He is showing off himself in the music. How difficult is this piece of music!
He actually put the characteristics of his music on the musicality!
Let the music in your hands move closer to the musical direction as much as possible, so that the music has more musical characteristics, instead of an ordinary mazurka without any characteristics!

This is He Shen's interpretation of this piece of music! "

The eyes of everyone couldn't help but straighten, and they didn't know what to say for a while.

They looked at He Shen, at He Shen's slightly bent back, at He Shen's hands running wildly, and at He Shen's extremely calm eyes.

They even felt that the person in front of them was not He Shen, but... Chopin!
He Shen's interpretation of music almost directly reached the same mentality as them.

They listened to this work, even though they had heard this work countless times, but when they heard He Shen's interpretation, they felt...

This is how it should be!
Chopin's music should have this feeling!
It is even said that this is the real Chopin!Only in this way can it be regarded as Chopin!

Everyone in the audience was shocked. They gradually began to forget the Chopin played by Porter before. They let their attention be completely on He Shen's Chopin.

In everything, you cannot rely on comparison. If you compare, you can always find various shortcomings.

For example, Porter played Chopin's No. 24 piano Mazurka before. His two-tone part obviously has a little bit of loopholes.

In fact, it is normal to have loopholes. Many contestants will play wrong sounds when interpreting.

This is human nature.

However, He Shen did not...

From the beginning to the present, he has not made any mistakes.

Even if his interpretation did not reach a perfect state, none of his mistakes in the music appeared.

There are no loopholes anywhere.

It is precisely because of this that Bai Lijun and Porter, who made the first piece of performance exactly the same, seem extremely passive at this moment.

They each have their own mistakes.

And He Shen... no!
Sitting on the steps, Potter suddenly raised his head, leaned out cautiously, and looked at He Shen on the stage with extremely complicated eyes.

He knew that he might be eliminated in this round, but he didn't expect that He Shen could play so well?

But not long after he got off the stage, Bai Lijun, who was still backstage, turned his face extremely stiff.

He Shen, compared with his interpretation, became extremely bad.

Although it may not have much impact on his score, it has a great impact on He Shen's score.

That is to say, the person in front of them gave about 23 points, and you alone surpassed him by a lot. Could it be possible that you would give him a lower score than 23 points?

Totally impossible!
Even if each judge has their own selection criteria in their hearts, but under such an obvious comparison, it is difficult for them to find a reason, a reason for giving He Shen a low score!
If so...

Bai Lijun turned his gaze to the Maple Leaf country camp.

In the center of the Maple Leaf Country camp, sitting Bruce Liu and Liu Yu, still smiling generously.

He sat there as if he didn't care about anything.

However, if you get close, you can clearly see that his smile is much more restrained than before.

When he heard He Shen's interpretation, he also thought of this.

If the performance of the same piece by their own players is not as good as theirs, then the judges are likely to give a high score that is not particularly accurate.

Then you may be in danger...

Liu Yu and Bai Lijun thought of this at the same time, and their expressions became a little bit ugly.

Bai Lijun felt guilty that he might have caused a little obstacle for Liu Yu's victory.

And Liu Yu was sitting there thinking, thinking about how he should interpret next, so that he can barely make up for his score, so that the score of this round will not be widened by a particularly large gap.

If you are unlucky and the gap in this round is stretched too much, then it will be ugly...

When he thought of this, he couldn't help but get a headache.

However, all of them did not show a particularly big movement, and the changes in their expressions were only very subtle changes.

Unless someone who pays special attention to them and knows them very well, it is almost difficult to notice this change.

Liu Yu looked at He Shen, couldn't help but sighed, and leaned his body back a little to calm down his emotions a little.

Now, He Shen's Chopin Mazurka basically doesn't have many problems, and he should be able to get a very high score, a score that surpasses what He Shen can get when he interprets normally.

Now let's see what kind of feeling can be interpreted by Chopin's Prelude after He Shen.

Chopin's 24 piano preludes, 24 completely different emotional styles.

These things can not improve the score through comparison, but can really see a person's understanding of Chopin.

Liu Yu now only hopes that He Shen's prelude can make a slight mistake and keep He Shen's score at 23-24.

In this way, he still has the hope of chasing him.

If He Shen's interpretation is too perfect, then if he wants to catch up with He Shen, he has to explode!
The thought of this place made his pressure even greater.

He looked at Deng Songshan who was sitting on the judge's seat, with an extremely complicated expression on his face.

"Teacher, you... how would you choose?"

At this moment, Deng Songshan, who was sitting on the judge's seat, looked at He Shen with an incomparably deep expression, and no one could see what he was thinking.

There is one thing to say, for Deng Songshan, he doesn't like this kind of particularly pure, only Chopin's interpretation.

He feels that every performer should be himself, interpreting his own thoughts on music.

Rather than interpreting a person who has passed away!
Relying on his own unique style, he won the Chopin International Piano Competition Champion.

Not just him, but Argerich as well.

Therefore, he hopes that the Chopin International Piano Competition can give more players more personal stylized directions.

Since the appearance of Li Diyun from Huaguo, the direction of the entire Chopin International Piano Competition, in his opinion, has gone astray.

What everyone wants to see is a new Chopin, not a new player.

Therefore, he was extremely disappointed. He felt that the Chopin International Piano Competition was going downhill.

Fortunately, there are more and more people who think like him. At least [-]% of the judges absolutely support the Chopin International Piano Competition. It should have a personal direction, not pure Chopin.

He also felt that this year should finally be possible, and there will be another Chopin player full of personal style.

pity……

How deep did they meet!
An interpretation of Chopin can almost be regarded as a superb Chopin player.

What he carried on his body didn't have much special feeling about himself.

All he has in his body is only one feeling, that is Chopin's feeling!

Extremely pure, Chopin's feeling!
Deng Songshan didn't like it.

Argerich told him that He Shen may be the kind of player who plays what he looks like.

Deng Songshan didn't believe it.

After all, the last player who was so strong and played what he looked like was called Zimmerman.

Therefore, Deng Songshan did not show any welcome to He Shen's appearance, and even felt a little disgusted.

He felt that the appearance of He Shen might make their efforts go to waste.

The Chopin International Piano Competition has been developing in the direction of pure Chopin for more than ten years.

And time has also proved that it is extremely purely developing towards Chopin, without any future. In recent years, there are not a few particularly strong players. After they came out, most of them disappeared.

As for the Chopin International Piano before Li Diyun, it can be regarded as the most concerned competition in the world. The players who come out of this competition are basically all masters!
Most of them, after they won the Chopin International Piano Competition, their careers are extremely successful.

Just like themselves.

But now?Now the players are required to be particularly biased towards Chopin himself?

Hardly anyone is particularly talented!

Due to countless reasons, Deng Songshan and others, those who require players to have a particularly strong personal style, want to interfere in the competition so much. They hope that the Chopin International Piano Competition can return to the right track.

But now...

Deng Songshan looked at He Shen and became confused.

He Shen's Chopin is really wonderful!
All the Chopin that He Shen played before almost broke the wall in his heart bit by bit, making him start to doubt whether his choice was really right?
And when He Shen followed the group of contestants with strong personal style and began to confront the music head-on, he finally began to truly reflect.

My own choice... maybe wrong?
Deng Songshan looked at He Shen, his eyes could not help but narrow slightly, his teeth clenched.

"Come on, prove it to me, Chopin's 24 piano preludes, prove to me with this, prove that you are right, you are the kind of player Argerich said, playing what, like what! "

"24, completely different interpretations, 24, completely different preludes..."

"What kind of Chopin can you interpret?"

"I'm curious……"

"Are you right, or am I right!"

Deng Songshan looked at He Shen with incomparably serious eyes.

Argerich sat on the side, seemed to feel something, looked at Deng Songshan, couldn't help shaking his head slightly, smiled lightly, and didn't take it to heart.

And He Shen naturally didn't know what Deng Songshan was thinking.

After interpreting the last piece, Chopin's piano mazurka, which represented a great breakthrough, he put his hands off the piano.

Next, is the most difficult item.

Chopin's 24 Piano Preludes.

Although, He Shen has already brought all of these 24 piano preludes to the peak level of Lv10.

However, when he was about to perform, He Shen still couldn't help feeling nervous.

This work is not easy.

Nearly four and 10 minutes of engrossing, put my attention completely on the music.

Every piece of work requires a completely new emotion and a completely new thinking.

This is not an easy task.

No, it can even be said that this is definitely an extremely difficult thing!
With a deep sigh, He reached out and took out the lollipop in his pocket. Under everyone's shocked eyes, he peeled off the paper clothes that had been opened in advance, and put the lollipop in his mouth.

The sweetness rushed towards He Shen's brain in an instant.

This sweet smell made He Shen's mood calm down instantly.

He didn't pay attention to the strange eyes of the people around him, but raised his hand and looked at the piano in front of him, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

Next, is...

Chopin, 24 pieces, piano preludes!
　I did a quick test today, and it turned from positive to negative, but I still have a cough, which is quite severe.

　　It might feel like a fake vagina.

　　I don't know when the cough will be better.

　　Then my home network was installed on the 16th, Gan!
