Chapter 201: Stunning skills, new achievements achieved
The beautiful and lively piano sound flows out from his beautiful fingers, intoxicating people and making their hearts ripple.
Lingshi's left hand began to dance, dancing with the piano keys.
"Ding Dong Ding Dong."
Listening to the clear and pleasant piano sound, people's ears seemed to hear the low sound of the bell.
"The bell has started!"
People's breathing gradually accelerated with Lingshi's performance.
The melody was speeding up, the beat was progressing, as if something was emerging.
The rapid notes would make people's heartstrings beat, and the changes in heart rate would also cause changes in breathing and body.
The whole audience was silent, the big concert hall was very quiet, everyone was motionless, only the figure on the stage was jumping, only the bell was ringing.
For a time, people's minds gradually sank into it, and they were amazed by his performance.
Unlike pop music, the requirements for piano composition are extremely strict, which is why modern piano music is difficult to be recognized.
Because in the long history of the piano, as the times progressed, one talented pianist after another emerged, making significant contributions to the piano that cannot be ignored, and there were also classics handed down from generation to generation.
Even if a note is not harmonious, the piano music will be ruined.
Even if a note is not harmonious, it will lead to the imperfection of a piano music.
This is a perfect performance, people's emotions fluctuate with it, sinking into it, and it is even more frightening.
Unlike most pianists, who are calm and immersed in the emotions that the piano music should have, wearing a mask at zero o'clock, no joy, anger, sorrow or happiness can be seen, and his emotions are all in the sound of the piano.
Liszt's "The Bells" is a three-part piano music with three themes.
If the first section is the calmness of the early morning, the second section of the bell is the excitement of the day, and the third section is the dance carnival at night.
When the performance progressed to nearly a minute, the first theme gradually came to an end, and the ten fingers that were as smart as elves flying at zero o'clock suddenly accelerated.
Under the passionate bell sound, his hands were flying, and his exquisite and fluent piano skills were amazing.
The first theme ended with the interpretation, and returned to peace again.
This variation was like riding the waves and riding the waves.
However, this peace only lasted for a short interval of less than a second, and people were not even able to recover from the intense afterglow.
The next moment, Lingshi's hands moved together and started a new round of themes.
"!"
The sudden variation, Lingshi's ten fingers were flying, and his superb round-playing skills began to show their edge. People were deeply attracted by his dazzling fingering and performance.
Unlike the first paragraph, the performance of the second paragraph was too intense, and the rhythm was so fast that it made people breathe quickly.
It was a wave of bells that rose and fell, as if there were hundreds of bells ringing together, which was shocking.
"Oh my god..."
When the two-minute-long performance changed dramatically, Lingshi's body tilted slightly, his hands swirled violently at the corners of the high pitch, and the endless bells exploded, making people's scalps numb and their eyes dumbfounded.
Seeing this, all the spectators were attracted.
After another round of performance, it returned to a brief silence, and people's heartstrings were tense and relaxed.
For a while, people were immersed in the piano wholeheartedly and couldn't extricate themselves.
However, the most terrifying thing about Liszt's "The Bells" is its charm, which will only get more and more intense as the performance progresses.
When the third theme, the gorgeous and brilliant paragraph exploded, everyone forgot everything and completely fell under the performance of this gorgeous technique.
When Lingshi's hands turned into a sky full of afterimages, flying on the keyboard, it seemed as if something exploded in people's hearts.
"Is he still a human?!"
When the performance progressed to the end, the gorgeous and brilliant, warm and cheerful singing and dancing atmosphere emerged in front of everyone, and everyone was suffocated.
Perhaps in many people's cognition, the difficulty of playing any instrument does not absolutely represent whether it sounds good or bad.
However, the pleasantness of "The Bell" is accompanied by the extremely high difficulty of playing, which is pulled to an extremely high level, which can be said to be the ceiling level.
When the ending and climax of "The Bell" exploded, it was destined to be a double feast of hearing and vision, and everyone would be attracted by this heavenly sound.
At this moment, everyone forgot to breathe and suffocated deeply.
Because under such a feast, people seemed to see countless bells exploding, and people were singing and dancing in a gorgeous and magnificent auditorium.
The four-minute music ended, but people did not notice the cessation of the piano sound, and were still immersed in it and unable to extricate themselves.
"Huh..."
In the shock of countless people, Kurosawa Hikaru came back to his senses from the piano state at zero time and let out a long breath.
Liszt's "The Bells" is extremely difficult to play, because in just four minutes of music, you have to constantly use techniques such as [round play] (alternating between the left and right hands), [rapid octave changes], and [staccato with large interval jumps] to play.
Among them, the most difficult section is the one that imitates the sound of bells by quickly jumping 4 octaves with one hand. It is not only a feast for the ears, but also a feast for the eyes.
Even he, who has the talent of a master piano, has already engraved the score of the piano piece "The Bells" into his body and mind, but in order to avoid mistakes, he still played it more than a dozen times in advance in the office, which led to this perfect performance.
"It should be a success."
Kurosawa Hikaru stood up and faced the audience. Through the mask, he saw that in the large concert hall that was packed with seats, everyone was dumbfounded, looking at him in shock and admiration, and he suddenly felt relieved.
He was really angry today because countless people were attacking his fans on the Internet.
The first comment he saw during lunch break was just the beginning. There were many more comments that were unsightly and made him angry.
There is so much quarrel about him, a war between his fans and various figures in the piano world.
What makes him most angry is that the fans who love and admire him are at a serious disadvantage and are being unilaterally beaten.
Because the piece "Croatian Rhapsody" is not considered top-notch in the piano world, and the difficulty of playing it is indeed very low. Some people even imitate it directly.
It is precisely for this reason that he chose Liszt's "The Bell" from among the many piano pieces he mastered at the proficiency level, and practiced it diligently before starting the performance.
"Snap, snap, snap!"
In the midst of silence, the judges at the judging table were the first to come to their senses and applauded enthusiastically.
"My God, Zero Hour, your performance is so perfect! You are exactly what I guessed, you are a world-class master! It's a great decision to recommend you to perform live."
It was a foreign pianist with blond hair and blue eyes, a straight and thick nose, wearing a suit, speaking English in a tone of great shock and amazement.
However, as a top student at Tokyo University, Kurosawa Hikaru is very proficient in English and can understand what he is saying.
"Did he recommend me?"
Hearing these words, Kurosawa Hikaru couldn't help but look at him more.
He had found it strange before. Since professional pianists criticized him in various ways and did not recognize his level... why did Kawai Piano go against the norm and choose him as a special guest against all odds?
But if someone recommended it, this would be excusable.
At the same time, the system's voice suddenly rang:
Congratulations to the host, you have activated the achievement [Unstoppable Charm] and will be rewarded with 3 draws. "
Achievement: [Unstoppable Charm] - An absolutely powerful person, even an enemy, will be impressed by your charisma.
Activation conditions: Make people change from hostility to admiration - times 10/10.
“This achievement is truly bizarre.”
Realizing this, Kurosawa Hikaru couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
At the same time, all the spectators gradually came to their senses.
"Wow--!"
For a moment, the whole place was in an uproar and the voices were as loud as thunder.
People who were already fans were so excited that they burst into tears. They were so moved and excited that they couldn't control themselves.
"Master Zero Hour, I love you so much, I will be your fan for the rest of my life!"
Shizuka Kitajima was the first to break out, standing up and cheering to express her enthusiasm.
"Zero hour! Zero hour!"
Seeing this scene, many fans lost their reserve and stood up one after another to party.
"thank you for your support."
Faced with this overwhelming enthusiasm and admiration, Kurosawa Hikaru temporarily ignored the achievements and the number of draws, but took a few steps forward to wave to them and responded.
It's not like he doesn't have fans. In Zhui Feng Dojo, Brother Shinichi's students who are much older than him are all his fans.
But unlike face to face, these fans come from all over the country and have never met him. They are fans who love him just because of his piano videos.
Although these fanatical fans directly labeled him the "Non No. 1 Pianist", which made him controversial and inflamed, attracting criticism from the entire Internet.
But the problem is not big, even if he has this high hat, he has the ability to pamper his fans and respond to their expectations and admiration.
What's a pity is that Kurosawa Hikaru didn't have a microphone, and his words of thanks were directly drowned out by the cheers.
"How can he be so strong?"
"Master Zero Hour..."
In the auditorium of the large concert hall, many black people were shocked and turned to fans one after another.
In the world of piano, strength speaks for itself... After watching Liszt's "The Bell" live, they felt that Ling Shi was indeed qualified to be called Neon's No. 1 pianist.
What's more, his piano skills are definitely among the top three in the world.
"He played a section too fast and didn't get my approval."
However, there was still someone who was going against the wind, and that was the man with glasses who had scolded Kitajima Shizuka at the entrance of the Tokyo Bunka Kaikan.
Unlike others, because his resentment was deeper, he couldn't swallow this breath.
"Do you know piano? Master Zero Hour's performance can be said to be the best interpretation of "The Bell" so far in the 21st century."
"I still don't get your approval. Who are you? You have such a big face."
However, his muttering to himself was overheard by the people next to him, which immediately attracted a group of people to attack him.
"You have never played the piano, you just like to listen to the piano. Don't act like you know the piano well."
Friends who knew everything about him couldn't bear hearing these words.
