Chapter 389 Liu Yufan VS Lang Lang
~.-~ Chapter 389 Liu Yufan vs Lang Lang
"Huh?" Lang Lang was watching attentively. He heard the sound and immediately raised his head like a conditioned reflex, but found a young man of his age standing next to him smiling at him.
"Hello, who are you?" Looking at this young man, Lang Lang felt familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had met.
"My name is Liu Yufan, haha, I believe Director Meng must have told you." Liu Yufan said with a smile.
"You are Liu Yufan?" Lang Lang asked in surprise.
"Yes, you~~know me?" Liu Yufan asked uncertainly when he saw Lang Lang's unexpected appearance.
"Haha, hello, of course I know you, come on, sit down!" Suddenly, Lang Lang became enthusiastic.
Because of Lang Lang's rapid change in attitude, Liu Yufan had to sit down.
"Haha, my name is Lang Lang. Director Meng must have told you just now. Haha, I have long admired your name, and I am very happy to know you!" Lang Lang said, stretching out his hand at Liu Yufan, staring at Liu Yufan with his signature big eyes and smiling.
These words made Liu Yufan a little confused.
"I have long admired Daming? Is this Lang Lang talking to me?" Listening to Lang Lang's words, Liu Yufan felt a sense of laughter and crying.
This is right for him. Lang Lang's reputation in the piano industry should be bigger than himself no matter how he looks at it.
Hum? No, it's 1999 now. It seems that Lang Lang has not yet ushered in the most important opportunity in his life. Because the pianist was unwell and accidentally came on as a substitute, he became famous in one fell swoop. Now he should be just an ordinary student at the Cotis Conservatory of Music. Hum, it can't be said to be an ordinary person. This guy has won several awards internationally. He should be said to be a well-known pianist.
"You are too polite, Lang Lang, I dare not take it for a long time, haha." Liu Yufan became modest, but he still felt a little secretly happy. This is Lang Lang. Even if he is not famous now, he will be a stolen figure in the international music scene in the future. If you are said to be admired for a long time, that feeling, hehe, it's just one word, it's great!
"You are kind, aren't you? I've heard your song "He is a Pirate" and I really like it! To be honest, I admire you very much. You are also going to school in the alto area now." Lang Lang asked with a smile.
"Affiliated High School." Liu Yufan reminded, but he felt a little embarrassed. Look at him, he had already walked out of the alto and arrived in Curtis, but he was still in the affiliated high school. It seems that the two of them were born in the same year. This person is really annoying.
But this is no wonder Liu Yufan. The two started differently. Although Liu Yufan was a reborn person, he had been receiving piano education for more than five years in this life. But Lang Lang is a boy, and he started playing the piano since he was a child. His father was even more strict. In order to let him practice the piano, he took medicine and jumped off the building, so he forced him out. In comparison, Liu Yufan was much more relaxed. Although he had experienced three years like hell with Mo Yan, it was relatively scientific, unlike Lang Lang's father, Jing Laiman.
"Haha, the affiliated high school is also very good, I have attended it there. To be honest, I really admire you very much. When you go to school in that kind of place, you can still play such a song. It's amazing. If you want me, I've been scolded to death by the teachers of the affiliated high school. By the way, who is your teacher in the affiliated high school?" Lang Lang asked curiously.
"Ling Yuan. By the way, what about you?" Liu Yufan asked with a smile. When it comes to the relationship between the midrange level, the two of them are serious alumni. After a while, the two of them quickly felt much more familiar.
"Ling Yuan, that teacher is pretty good. I learned from Teacher Shi. But he always couldn't stand it. He said that I was crazy about playing the piano, and that my hands were useless. Haha, I was told a lot by him at that time. By the way, don't pass this to Teacher Shi's ears to me." Lang Lang said with a smile.
"Don't worry, I'll keep it a secret for you. To be honest, he has a lot of opinions about my playing method. Normally, it's an authentic academic school after all. The song "He's a Pirate" is a bit too much." Liu Yufan said with a smile.
"Yes, we are all those who are not doing their jobs." Lang Lang said with a smile, but he didn't care at all. His piano and his character have a striking style. In fact, people like this are not suitable for the academic performance style. It can be said that his decision to go to Curtis was a very correct one.
"By the way, how are you doing at Curtis now? Is your study there strict?" Liu Yufan asked curiously. In the eyes of music lovers, Curtis Conservatory of Music is a very legendary academy. Over the years, it has cultivated many performers. It can be said that this academy was born to train performers. For this academy, Liu Yufan, like many music majors, has a strong sense of curiosity and yearning.
"You said Curtis, it's not strict, but to be honest, the art education there is just one word, great! The teachers over there are very high quality and absolutely world-class standards. I am studying with Teacher Grafman now. You know, it's the dean of the Curtis Conservatory of Music..." When talking about Curtis, Lang Lang seemed to suddenly become excited, and talked endlessly about the college to Liu Yufan.
"Sorry, I just mentioned the college and talked a little too much. By the way, let's talk about the show." Just now, a staff member came over to remind the two of them to prepare for the performance. This made Lang Lang stop talking to Xingxing, remembering the "main business" that Liu Yufan asked him for.
"Haha, OK." Liu Yufan didn't care at all. In fact, he had already played this song so well that he could not be more familiar with it. During the three years he studied with Mo Yan, this song Mo Yan was taught as a "big exam" song for graduation. Liu Yufan was deeply engraved in his mind with four movements and every detail.
"Let's just talk about division of labor. That, there are symphony accompaniments on site, but it's probably a bit awkward to play with the accompaniment. We have to adapt more to it." Lang Lang said, and then discussed with Liu Yufan. The two of them were very familiar with this song and quickly agreed on the music sections they were responsible for. From beginning to end, the song was very exciting and showy, so there is no question of who is more successful. If they play the part they are responsible for, they will have highlights.
"Try it?" After explaining the details, Lang Lang looked at Liu Yufan and said with a relaxed smile.
"Try it!" Liu Yufan shook hands with him with a smile, and responded confidently.
Then, the two of them laughed at the same time.
For such a large song, such a short discussion seems to be too hasty. But this is precisely the embodiment of the confidence of the two people. Both of them are clear about each other's strength, and there is no need to discuss more about some details. After a general meaning, the other party can quickly understand it, and it is very labor-saving to communicate.
On the stage, the two Stanways were ready. After the host reported the show, Liu Yufan and Lang Lang walked onto the stage from both sides according to the arrangement.
Looking at Lang Lang's black dress for performance, Liu Yufan secretly screamed ashamed. He still came with Phoenix Legend, but his subordinates prepared the performance costumes, but he was still wearing casual casual clothes. There was no way, he got used to it.
"Oh, I hope Director Meng will not dislike you." Liu Yufan sat in front of the piano and thought nervously.
The two of them sat down separately, looking at each other through the long Stanway triangular body, and both showed a smile that understood, but there was a sense of fighting in their eyes!
Yes, fighting spirit!
Although this is just a performance, it is more like a showdown for the two of them. They both have their own pride in the field they are good at and are eager to prove themselves in the performance. Therefore, with such an arrangement, the two of them are destined to do their best.
Liu Yufan was already a little excited. Although he had performed on the same stage with Kissin at the Tchaikovsky Conservatory before, it was Kissin who temporarily attracted the audience. He was just a person who made up the numbers, and the positions of the two people were not equal at all. But now it is different. This future emperor superstar in the piano world is on the same stage with him at the same stage, facing each other equally, like a fair showdown between two samurai. Whenever he thought of this, Liu Yufan couldn't help but feel excited!
On the stage, the prelude to "Defend the Yellow River" suddenly came from all the sounds, and the magnificent symphony accompaniment immediately brought the two people into the performance state.
"Yellow River Chorus" is Xian Xinghai's most famous musical work, divided into eight movements. Later, it was adapted into piano music by Chen Gang and He Zhanhao of the Central Conservatory of Music, and it was reduced to four movements, namely "Yellow River Boatman's Song", "Ode to the Yellow River", "Yellow River Anger", and "Defend the Yellow River". The most well-known is the fourth movement "Defend the Yellow River", which is also a piece that many pianists often play when playing Chinese music. Its popularity is so wide that many people mention "Yellow River", and their first reaction is to think of "Defend the Yellow River", and even mistakenly believe that this is the whole of "Yellow River".
The beginning of the song was completed by Lang Lang. He sat quietly in front of the piano and listened carefully to the accompaniment he heard from the return of the headphones. When the prelude had just been put, he immediately raised his arms and fell heavily on the keys!
With ten fingers on both hands, he would pop up to the end with every fall sound. Lang Lang's body also made exaggerated big moves, which seemed very tense!
Opposite, Liu Yufan stared at him quietly with a focused expression.
