Chapter 202 Adeline by the Waterside (3 more monthly tickets requested)
"Perfect, so perfect, Mr. Zero Hour, your piano skills are simply amazing."
"Zero hour, you are now worthy of the name of master."
"It's different from the original, this is your version."
The judges at the judging table couldn't help but marvel.
"Mr. Zero Hour, I'm actually from Croatia. I wonder if you can come back and play another song? I really want to hear your "Croatian Rhapsody""
The blond foreign pianist spoke through the microphone.
The reason why he tried his best to recommend Zero Hour is because he is a Croatian, but he was unable to create such a song.
Perhaps this piano piece was far less difficult to perform than many piano pieces, but the idea behind it moved him greatly.
"May I?"
Upon hearing this request, Kurosawa Hikaru looked at the host on the side of the stage.
"Can."
The host received the instructions from the backstage through ear feedback and nodded immediately.
"Can I play one more song?"
After receiving this agreement, Kurosawa Hikaru asked again.
"It's 8:12 now. You can play freely until 8:50. At the end, ten minutes will be reserved to announce the final rankings of this competition."
The host heard the instructions from the background and responded.
Different from before, this time her attitude changed and she was extremely respectful.
Anyone who knows piano will know how terrifying the level of Master Zero Hour is after watching the performance just now.
This game is time-limited and will end at 9pm at the latest.
To put it bluntly, Master Zero Hour’s performance this time has achieved its purpose of promoting the popularity of the competition, and even exceeded expectations.
"good."
After receiving this agreement, Kurosawa Hikaru immediately felt relieved.
"Can I ask, what pieces do you want to play?"
The host realized that he was still willing to perform, and walked onto the stage with some excitement and asked.
"The first song of the encore is Croatian Rhapsody. Fans come from far away just to see this song performed live... There is also another song, which is also my original song."
Kurosawa waited for her to come up to him, faced the audience, and spoke through the microphone.
Through Liszt's "The Bell", after tonight, no one should dare to attack his fans.
After showing his absolute strength, he no longer needs to play difficult pieces and can play whatever he wants.
"Master Zero Hour is too doting on his fans."
“There are also new original piano pieces, which are well worth the price of admission.”
"The song "The Bell" by Liszt just now was worth the price of admission, and even made a lot of money. You don't know much about piano, so you don't know how exaggerated this piece of music is."
Kitajima Shizuka was very moved and explained after hearing what others said.
To put it bluntly, after tonight, Zero Hour’s name will truly be known as Neon’s number one pianist.
From tomorrow onwards, no one will be able to question the level of Zero Hour.
“Next, please enjoy the original music presented to us by Master Zero Hour.”
The host also showed his cards, stopped pretending, and directly called the master.
Immediately afterwards, Kurosawa Hikaru walked back to the piano and sat down.
As he took his seat, the whole place became quiet again.
This time, everyone's eyes were filled with expectations instead of doubts.
"Ding-deng-deng!"
Kurosawa Hikaru's right hand fell, and the sound of the high-pitched piano sounded.
If we say Liszt's "The Bell", it gradually bursts out its charm.
As a modern piano piece, the biggest feature of "Croatian Rhapsody" is that it is ear-catching, and its charm bursts out from the moment the performance begins.
The moment the sound of the piano sounds, people will be attracted by it.
It has nothing to do with technique, its passionate and high-pitched yet steady melody, even though it is a pure piano version, unlike the original version, which has the accompaniment of various instruments, but under Kurosawa Hikaru's superb and impressive level, it is destined to be a masterpiece. It's an auditory feast.
Different from the classical and heavy colors of "The Bell", after everyone in the audience realized the charm of Zero Hour, when people looked at him again, they felt completely different.
At this moment, his figure looked very relaxed, and he had a feeling of being free from the constraints of the world.
That charming and unique appearance, that elegant and confident figure, sitting in front of the piano, tapping the keys smoothly, making people enjoy it.
Not long after, the song ended and the Croatian Rhapsody, a gift to the fans, came to an end.
"Bah bang bang!"
"Alas!"
"So handsome."
"I have no regrets in my life."
By the time the song was over, the fans were hooked.
To prove his ability, he played Liszt's "The Bell".
To thank fans for their support, he performed "Croatian Rhapsody"
Next, it’s for yourself.
Kurosawa Hikaru stood up, waved to the audience to thank him, and also picked up the microphone to introduce the next track.
"The last track is called "Adelina by the Waterside", which is a romantic piano piece."
He had a low voice, wore a mask, and could not see his eyes. He just faced the audience and looked at Ninomiya Chizuru.
However, Chizuru Ninomiya, who was sitting in the first row, could feel Hikari Kurosawa watching her when she heard the title of the song.
"Did he compose a piano piece for that day, for me?"
Ninomiya Chizuru's beautiful eyes behind her frameless glasses trembled a little, her heartbeat accelerated and surprised, and an unprecedented sense of satisfaction and happiness surged into her heart.
This feeling can be said to be flattered. Faced with such a big surprise, even the most expressionless person cannot contain this joy.
This name is so special that it is really hard for her not to understand that Kurosawa Hikaru composed the piano piece for her.
This is exactly the case. When Kurosawa Hikaru saw the scene of Mizui Yiren that day, he had an extremely eager impulse in his heart to present this piano piece to Miss Ninomiya.
"What a romantic name."
Hearing this name, Miki Shiraha was a little surprised.
Normally, ordinary people may not know the meaning of this piece of music, but as a student of the Faculty of Literature at the University of Tokyo, she knows something about Greek mythology.
The name Adeline comes from a story in Greek mythology.
She is the king of Cyprus, a beautiful girl sculpted.
The king looked at her every day, infatuatedly, and eventually inevitably fell in love with the statue of the girl.
Because his love was so sincere, it moved the gods. The goddess of love Venus sent down her power and turned the statue into a real beauty and married him.
The moral of this myth is a story of going from unrequited love to gaining true love.
At the same time, Kurosawa Hikaru sat in front of the piano again, and played "Adeline by the Water" with the fall of his fingers.
Different from the two songs just now, this is a romantic piano piece.
As a modern piano piece, it has another feature, that is, it is catchy.
When the piano sounded, the delicate, soft and steady melody will pull your heartstrings into it.
"So beautiful..."
In just a moment, Ninomiya Chizuru's heartstrings sank, and the memories of that day in the Asura Valley were outlined.
Everyone likes different music, because of personal experience.
When a piece of music can resonate with the audience emotionally, no matter how difficult it is to sing or how difficult it is to play, it will become one of the audience's favorite music.
"Wow"
Yuki Ichinose was intoxicated by the beautiful piano music.
She didn't know piano or notes, but she liked listening to songs, singing and good music.
That's why a picture was drawn in her mind while she was listening.
It was a clear and winding, dreamy and beautiful river.
A woman stood beside the water.
The woman had a beautiful face and elegant posture. She should be wearing a silk dress, dragging on the grass.
In the soft morning light, her existence was full of beautiful and dreamy colors.
Her skin should be as melting as water, her eyes were bright, and her delicate and beautiful face was intoxicating.
And outside this picture, a man was looking at her infatuatedly and was fascinated by her.
"Brother Guang..." This scene touched her and reminded her of the experience in the shoe store that day, and her heart was extremely sweet.
That day, when she put on her high heels, Brother Guang sat on a chair and looked at her. He was deeply attracted and amazed by her figure. His affectionate and loving eyes made her unforgettable for life.
She noticed this at the time and felt sweet and happy about it.
Now this piano piece has brought back memories of that day, which makes her like it very much.
"..."
On the other side, Sanmu Baiyu listened to the melody that was sometimes high-pitched, sometimes low-pitched, sometimes gentle, and sometimes sad, and felt the twists and turns in the myth, and was deeply attracted by it.
In front of her eyes, the scene of the goddess by the water also emerged.
In addition, this song was like a fish hook, which evoked the memory she deliberately forgot.
It was in a camera store. She entered it under the guidance of the clerk, but at the corner, she suddenly heard the sound of SLR shooting, and subconsciously turned back to see the scene.
In the window with cameras on both sides, on a corner road, a man stood there with a camera and took a sneak shot of her.
As she noticed, the man put down the camera and stood up.
He was wearing a clean and tidy white shirt, his short black hair was well combed, and his black eyes were as bright as the stars in the long night. He was handsome and elegant.
It was obviously a sudden candid photo, but after she saw the appearance of the candid photographer, she did not feel disgusted at all, but became interested.
Because his eyes were very clear and affectionate, as if he was deeply attracted by her appearance.
The man was attracted by her appearance. She had seen it many times before... but for some reason, the impression left on her that time was extremely deep.
"What a pity."
Thinking back to this scene, Miki Baiyu couldn't help whispering in her heart.
If Senior Kurosawa didn't have a girlfriend, if she could have met Senior Kurosawa earlier... maybe it would be better.
"Adeline by the Water", a song lasting more than 2 minutes, is not very long, but not very short either. It tells a love story with twists and turns, and there are detours in the process of moving forward, which makes people feel bumpy.
This story, interpreted from another perspective, is about a man's desire and eagerness for his dream lover.
"Is that what you think?"
This romantic piano piece with twists and turns touched Ninomiya Chizuru so much that her eyes even turned red. She was deeply attracted by Kurosawa Hikaru who played this piece elegantly and affectionately on the stage. She couldn't help herself.
Unlike any ordinary couple, the story between her and Kurosawa Hikaru is destined to be bumpy because of their identities.
3 more monthly tickets, there should be another one later.
I strongly recommend the video "Lang Lang-Zhong (Liszt) High Quality Sound" on Station B. If you are interested, you can go and watch it. I was shocked.
