Chapter 200 Final (Part 2)
"Yufan is on the court!" An Quantao shouted excitedly.
Mo Yan looked at Liu Yufan standing on the stage, and his eyes showed relief. This child was highly conscious and willing to work hard, and he was really a student he liked very much.
He looked at the judges next to him again. Shi Shucheng, who was sitting in the middle, also looked at Liu Yufan with a focused look on his face, not paying attention to Mo Yan's gaze. He naturally would not notice Mo Yan even if there were more than a thousand viewers in the audience.
Mo Yan looked at Shi Shucheng, and a complex look flashed through his eyes.
After moving the piano bench and adjusting the most suitable posture for playing, Liu Yufan calmed down, put aside all the thoughts of the miscellaneous, and adjusted himself to the playing state.
His final repertoire is Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata". This is not the most difficult piece he can play, but it is his favorite and most in-depth song.
The left hand slightly stroked the slightly warm keys. Driven by the wrist, the weight of the palm and forearm was evenly transferred to the keys. The seemingly invisible small movements of the wrist made the piano emit a low chord like an undercurrent, from light to heavy, from nothing to something, without a trace of abruptness and chaoticness, everything seemed so natural and free.
But his right hand, like a restless petrel, quickly flew up from the bass area of the piano keys, bringing up a series of small notes with tragic colors!
If you look from the side, Liu Yufan's right hand cavity just keeps a standard parallel state with the keys. The distance between the two is exactly the length of the fingers after bent. As the wrist moves on the keys, the wrist does not show any ups and downs, and it is almost impossible to notice its changes when transposition!
"What a standard hand shape!" Shi Shucheng praised in his heart. During the preliminaries, Shi Shucheng felt Liu Yufan's solid foundation. At this moment, he saw this fast arpeggio of his right hand that was more kung fu, and Liu Yufan was so perfect that Shi Shucheng was even more amazed!
The right hand exerted force in the high pitch area of the piano instantly. The two crisp chords were like droplets hitting the rocks, so crisp and thorough! The soft tone of the Yamaha piano was actually made up for by this powerful play, so that it sounded like the sound of a high-end piano playing!
Liu Yufan leaned forward, his lips tightly pursed, his expression focused and firm. His whole expression combined with the song "Moonlight Sonata", giving people a strong sense of visual impact!
Another string of more discordant arpeggios sounded, and the music became sharper and more conflicting, as if the contradictions were constantly intensified, and the dissonance chords sounded in the high pitch area seemed to declare the player's inner excitement and anger!
The moment he played the powerful chord, Liu Yufan's entire upper body vibrated. The movement looked extremely straightforward and vigorous. To the outsider's eyes, this may be just a physical movement for the sake of good looks, but only professionals like Shi Shucheng know the meaning of this movement. It is the visual effect caused by the burst of most of the body's weight in an instant and smoothly transmitted to the fingertips through the arms. Some are similar to the "shaking force" mentioned by martial arts practitioners. This is a very advanced skill, but most people use it in a mere form or not in place. Only those with superb piano skills can use this skill freely!
When Liu Yufan played the two straightforward burst chords, Shi Shucheng's eyes lit up! He was so familiar with this action that he used such skills in many songs. He was also familiar with the technical difficulty behind this action. The action that Liu Yufan just did just seemed too comfortable and so happy. Even just looking at his movements gave him a sense of comfort!
"This child must recruit Zhongyin Affiliated High School. This is a very outstanding genius student!" After watching Liu Yufan's performance, Shi Shucheng became more determined.
With more than eight minutes of playing, tense and tension music, always firmly grasping the hearts of the audience and judges. Liu Yufan's outstanding skills and atmospheric and delicate performance conquered everyone present!
When he played the last chord and threw his arms high from the keys, there was a long and warm applause from the audience!
"That's great! The song "Moonlight" played by Yufan is simply perfect!" An Quan praised. This song was not the first time he heard Liu Yufan play, but every time he listened, he couldn't help but make exclamations. He didn't know what level Liu Yufan had reached, but he just felt that even those recorded versions were far less satisfying than listening to Liu Yufan's performance with his own ears!
"Yes, it's so amazing! This child's piano is enough to look down on the entire river and sea." Peng Tielin also sighed.
"Jiang Hai? Teacher Peng, it's not that I'm a brag. Even if I get to the Central Conservatory of Music, I can still be ranked first." An Quantao said loudly.
"Yufan, good!" Looking at Yufan who was bowing on the stage, Jiang Ya's beautiful eyes were dazzling. The moment Yufan was playing on the stage, she really had an illusion, as if the person in front of the piano was no longer the Yufan she was familiar with, but a real piano superstar, showing her grand style!
In the audience, Su Anran, who had just finished playing, looked at Liu Yufan on the stage with a complicated expression.
She is a talented student in the alto piano department, and her vision is naturally extraordinary. After listening to Liu Yufan's performance, she already fully understood that she was really inferior to this young man who looked less than 20 years old. However, this result made her a little difficult to accept. You know, she is a talented student in the alto piano department, the "pride of heaven" in the piano industry. After graduation, she is almost destined to be a pianist. Is he not just a student in an ordinary high school? How could he reach this level? How did he practice?
"Liu Yufan~~" Looking at Yufan on the stage, a strange look flashed in Mo Xi's eyes. She really didn't expect that she would meet such a strong opponent on such a stage. With his performance, he was almost comparable to him, but she had been studying at the world-famous Curtis Conservatory for three years!
"Yufan, to be honest, your performance just now really made me admire you!" Without surprise, Shi Shucheng began to comment in person, and the words were amazing from the beginning.
It is quite difficult to be able to spit out the four words "eye with admiration" from his mouth.
"Thank you, Teacher Shi." Liu Yufan smiled slightly and said politely.
"You're welcome, really, I didn't expect you to play "Moonlight Sonata" to this level. To be honest, just this song can be a teacher at the Central Conservatory of Music at your level." Shi Shucheng said half-jokingly.
The joke "Wow~~~" was like a stone stirring up a thousand waves, causing an uproar in the audience.
"It's too exaggerated!"
"Go to the Central Conservatory of Music to be a teacher? He is just a student!"
"That's amazing, this guy!"
...
Obviously, no one expected that Uncle Shi would have such a high evaluation of him, and everyone's faces looked surprised.
Wang He, who was standing aside, opened his mouth wide in surprise. Looking at Liu Yufan on the stage, his expression was full of complexity and bitterness. Unexpectedly, he, who was a young boy a few years ago, now had such luck and received such high praise from Shi Shucheng, a master of the great master. With this sentence, Liu Yutong could almost reach the top in the Chinese piano world!
He didn't understand why Shi Shucheng gave him such a high evaluation. To be honest, although his performance just now was also good, Wang He didn't hear that it was that good. Of course, this also has something to do with his own level, and he couldn't see many of the wonderful things.
At this moment, Wang He even began to regret that he shouldn't have let Liu Yufan participate in this competition.
Thinking of such an excellent student slipping away under his nose, and what he did back then was considered a shameful person. If it spread to his ears one day, and when he starts to shake in the piano world, can he still have his own good fruits?
What Wang He didn't know was that Liu Yufan had already learned about his small tricks through Ma Wendong's network of relationships.
After hearing Shi Shucheng's praise, Liu Yufan just nodded slightly and thanked him without a very surprised expression.
Seeing Liu Yufan's unscathing attitude of being favored and humiliated, Shi Shucheng nodded slightly again. This child has a very good temperament and has the potential to become everyone.
"Your song is very good, I have nothing to comment on. You can continue the improvisational competition. I look forward to your performance." Shi Shucheng said with a smile.
The two graduate students sitting next to him, Chang Hua and Du Mingyin, were filled with envy. What a high praise. The boy in front of him is so amazing! If he can get Teacher Shi's eyes so beautiful, his future will definitely be bright!
"Okay!" Liu Yufan nodded at Shi Shucheng with a smile, turned around and faced the big screen, and chose a number casually.
The next moment, a piece of stalk appeared on the screen, and a small single melody came from the sound.
This is a typical minor tune. There are four sentences in total, and they are also compiled according to the rules of starting, inheriting, turning and turning. However, the few of the changing notes give the song a few different feelings.
Until now, the impromptu question that Liu Yufan drew should be considered the most difficult one. Seeing this question, some contestants showed gloating expressions in their eyes. To be honest, Liu Yufan just received such high evaluation from Shi Shucheng, and some contestants were inevitably envious and jealous. Not everyone has such a broad mind, and not everyone has such a high appreciation level. You can hear the extraordinary things in Liu Yufan's performance.
After listening to the song carefully, Liu Yufan looked calm, thought for a while, and then walked towards the piano.
Chapter completed!
