Dad's Entertainment Life

Chapter 719 Chopin in October ([-])
Tong Tong who was eliminated was not unwilling, but continued to watch the game with Lin Qirong and Zuo Youran.

She felt that she had learned a lot this time, and she had nothing to regret. Instead of getting lost, she might as well continue to practice seriously, and there was still a performance waiting for her.

The final result of the competition was announced, the 20-year-old talented pianist from Italy won No.1, and then came second to No.6.

There was also a special award, which was awarded to Tongtong very unexpectedly.

When the result was announced, both Tong Tong and Lin Qirong were stunned. What's going on?

However, as a special award, it can be awarded to any contestant. Looking at the expressions of other people on the scene, it seems that this result is not surprising.

When Tongtong took the stage to receive the trophy and certificate of the special award from the chairman of the Chopin Music Association, Reginald, the chairman rubbed Tongtong's hair kindly.

"Please keep working hard, you have a very good talent, don't waste it. We look forward to more exciting performances from you in the future."

"Thank you, Mr. Chairman." Tong Tong replied obediently, "I like piano, and I will continue to work hard."

"Yes, interest is the best teacher. I hope that you can truly fall in love with the piano, instead of competing for the sake of competition and playing for the sake of playing."

Reginald sighed and announced the official end of the Chopin International Piano Competition.

Tongtong failed to make it to the finals, but unexpectedly won a special award, and became the focus of many media reporters. It took a long time to interview them.

Other piano musicians also came up to greet them.

"It turned out to be Mr. Lin's daughter. No wonder she has such an excellent musical talent." A pianist smiled and was very familiar with Lin Qirong.

After all, he is also a world superstar.

"Thank you." Lin Qirong looked at Lin Qirong who was cuddling obediently beside him, and replied happily.

Anyway, this is an unexpected surprise.

After the competition, the Chopin Music Association held a reception dinner, which was also a concert.

Many famous musicians held their wine glasses and quietly enjoyed the concert. In addition to the award-winning contestants, there were also some special guests performing, including many famous pianists.

Hayden and Tongtong also got such an opportunity.

This time is not a competition, and there is no need to play Chopin's works exclusively. Everyone can choose their best works more freely and bring the most exciting performances.

So the whole concert is very exciting, and every performance will arouse warm applause.

Tongtong came on stage and started his performance in front of many of the best musicians.

The rhythm is very bright, passionate and high-pitched. At the beginning, everyone thought it was a cheerful song, which was suitable for such an occasion.

But gradually, the wine glasses in everyone's hands stopped, and their eyes turned to Tongtong on the stage, watching her slender fingers jumping on the keys, playing a series of notes, and performing the music like a dream.

In the bright rhythm, they seem to have seen a picture, the ruins of a city in the ashes after the baptism of war, the tragic picture of the setting sun reflected in the blood, tears and dust.

After the war, gunpowder smoke that has not yet dissipated hangs in the air.The sky is a little low, I don't know if it's the omen before the rain, or the smoke of gunpowder, the clouds present a melancholy gray in the sky.

The collapsed walls paved the ground with messy gravel, and the dust fluttered in the air before finally settling and returning to the soil.In the ruined walls after the war, an unknown white flower bloomed.

The little white flower whose name I don't know is swaying slightly in the wind.

It watched people come and go, watched chariots, tanks threatened to destroy its roots and soil, and also watched birds occasionally stop in a panic, trying to find a little bread crumbs in the crevices where the people were gone.
Only when night comes does it see peace.

The chairman of the Chopin Music Association, Reginald, did not know when he stood up, staring blankly at Tongtong on the stage, as if he had returned to that era, returned to that war, and experienced that human catastrophe again.

It was a catastrophe that the whole of Warsaw and all the Poles are unwilling to recall. The glorious city of Warsaw was submerged by the flames of war. Groups of Poles fell under the butcher knife, and the country also perished...

No matter how many years have passed, people still can't forget it.

He didn't expect that he would think of this matter again in such a song at this time and at this place, and the emotions in his heart were detonated again.

Unknowingly, his eyes were filled with tears, because of the sound of Tongtong's piano and because of that painful history.

Behind him, more people also stood up with tears in their eyes. They were either from Warsaw, or from Croatia, Ukraine, Libya, Afghanistan...
They have one thing in common, that is, their country and their hometown have been or are suffering from the baptism of war, and they have a deep feeling for the pain caused by war.

Tongtong's impassioned piano piece is full of sadness and strength, war and new life, which resonated with them.

At the end of the song, there was thunderous applause.

Reginald walked onto the stage tremblingly and bowed deeply to Tongtong.

Tongtong was taken aback by him, and quickly stepped aside.

"It's okay." Reginald smiled gently, "The piece of music you performed is really touching, and it touched me a lot."

"Really?" Tongtong asked happily, "This is created by my father, this is the first time to play it."

"I see, Mr. Lin is indeed a master of music." Reginald naturally knew Lin Qirong, "Of course your performance is very good and you brought us such a wonderful performance.

I think the repertoire still limits your performance in the competition, otherwise this piece of music alone is enough for you to win No.1. "

"No, I think this kind of limited repertoire is very good, let me know that I still have a lot of shortcomings, and I still need to continue to work hard.

Dad also said that the works of those great musicians are eternal, and being able to absorb nutrients from their works is very good for our own growth. "

Reginald exclaimed, "You have a good father."

Tongtong smiled sweetly, "I think so too."

"Anyway, thank you again for bringing us such a great piece of music." Reginald said with a smile, "You are welcome to come to us more in the future, and we welcome you to come and perform as guests at any time."

This is a semi-official invitation.

"Thank you, I'd be happy if I had the chance." Tongtong nodded gratefully to him before walking off the stage and throwing himself into Lin Qirong's arms.

Dad said that this music should be played with heart, and she did it, but why do so many people look at her with such strange eyes?It's so weird.

"It's awesome." Lin Qirong rubbed her hair and smiled, nodding to the gazes around her.

This piano piece "Croatian Rhapsody" has really shocked these countries that have suffered from war.

In fact, why isn't he like this?

There is sadness in this piece, but also silent desolation.The chords of the song are so beautiful that people always feel a little sad and strong when they hear this song.

Tongtong's unexpected performance made the next performance seem to lose all meaning at once. People's hearts were still immersed in the song just now, and they seemed absent-minded about the performance of the remaining guests, and the banquet ended hastily.

After returning to the hotel, Lin Qirong ushered in the visit of Reginald, chairman of the Chopin Music Association.

"Thank you Mr. Lin for creating such an excellent piece of music, it really moved us."

Lin Qirong said modestly, "It's nothing, I can't deserve your compliment."

Reginald said seriously, "Mr. Lin is wrong, a piece of music is alive and can move countless people.

This piece of music is like this, in our minds, it is no worse than any other famous piece of music. "

"Thank you."

Reginald calmed down, "I don't know if Mr. Lin has time. If possible, we very much hope that Mr. Lin can hold a concert in Warsaw and perform this piece of music for us live."

Lin Qirong shook his head, "I'm sorry, although I know how to play the piano, my playing level is not even comparable to that of my daughter, let alone you masters.

Besides, I have to return to China and cannot stay for too long.

In fact, in my opinion, if you play this piece of music yourself, it may have a better effect, after all, you have the same feelings. "

Reginald pondered for a while before slowly nodding, "Then we would like to thank Mr. Lin in advance."

Indeed, such music, performed by their orchestra, will have a better effect.

"No matter what, we all want to thank you for creating such a piece of music. For today's music circle, an excellent music creator is too precious, and an excellent piece of music is also very precious.

Our Chopin Music Association will be your best friend, and you are welcome to visit and perform in Warsaw at any time. "

"Thanks, I think we'd love to, it's a beautiful city."

"Yes, I'm proud of the city I'm in."

The next day, Lin Qirong and others boarded the plane and returned to Huaxia.

For Tongtong, this was a very unforgettable experience. She performed well in the Chopin International Piano Competition, even compared with players who were many years older than her, but she stopped in the second place because of lack of stability. wheel.

In the end, she shocked the audience with her song "Croatian Rhapsody", moved countless people, and became the most shining presence.

No one doubts that in the future, she will be someone the whole world needs to look up to, a true piano princess.

Because of her talent, but also because her father's name is Lin Qirong.

　From the album "The piano player" 2003 track number 12, composed by composer Tonci Huljic (Hejik). "Croatian Rhapsody" performed by Maksim Mrvica (Maksim Mrvica), the music described with a lively rhythm the ruins and ruins in the ashes of Croatia after the baptism of war, and the tragic picture of the setting sun reflected in the blood, tears and dust.The melody of this song is passionate and high-pitched. It is an emerging famous song in the 21st century and a representative work of Maxim.
