Chapter 301 The last lesson
"Director Su, why did you suddenly want to quit? Is something wrong at home?" Li Wanke, director of the Personnel Department of West China Conservatory of Music, looked at a resignation letter placed on his desk, with a surprised expression on his face.
Sudan is an old teacher at West China Conservatory of Music and has been a colleague of Li Vanke for many years. In Li Vanke's impression, although Sudan is a little proud, his professional quality is still very strong. In recent years, he has led the piano department of West China Conservatory of Music and has won many domestic and foreign awards, and can be regarded as a pillar of the Huayin Piano Department.
Now, without any warning, Sultan is actually going to resign, which makes him feel like he is celebrating April Fool's Day when he is at work early in the morning. If he hadn't known it was July, he would have thought Sultan was joking with him on April Fool's Day.
"No, it's some personal reasons for me. Section Chief Li, I have considered it very clearly. I hope you can approve my application." Sudan said lightly.
The moment she walked out of the VIP private room of Datang Hotel, Sudan's whole mood was complicated. On the one hand, she couldn't accept the fact that she lost to a young man, and she couldn't accept the changing fate of a stable life. On the other hand, Chu Yang's superb piano skills also shocked her greatly. After staying in West China Academy for so many years, her unchanging teaching career has almost wiped out her passion when she graduated. Even if she played her favorite Chopin works, it was difficult to find her passion. However, Chu Yang's song "Fantasy Improvisation" made her long-lost heart feel restless again!
Especially the words Chu Yang said to her, "Practice well and you can practice it." She felt even more warm!
After thinking about it for a night, Sudan finally figured it out.
Leaving Huayin and joining Huayin Pavilion may have lost a stable and decent job on the surface, but who dares to say that this is not a new opportunity? She is only 38 years old and her life is in a golden period. If she is in Huayin, the head of the piano department is the highest point in her life. At most, she will bring some piano students and earn some tuition. But in Huayin Pavilion...
Thinking of Chu Yang's superb piano level, Sultan's heart became hot again.
"Director Su, you should think about it carefully. After all, it's not easy to get to this position after so many years." Looking at Sudan's determination, Section Chief Li tried to keep it a little regretfully. If it were another teacher, he would never have said so much. Although the university teachers were relatively stable, many people would not resign. However, Sudan is different. She is one of the veterans here and left like this. It is definitely a loss to the school. Even from his personal emotional standpoint, it is a pity to see such a colleague who almost entered the school in the same year just left like this.
"Thank you, Section Chief Li. I have already thought about it, so you don't have to say anything more. I will tell him alone with the principal. But the school can rest assured that I am not changing jobs to be a teacher in another college, but I just want to change my work style. After teaching for so many years, I am a little tired." Sudan said, turning around and leaving the Personnel Department.
"A little tired?" Section Chief Li thought about Sudan's words and thought about it.
Sudan left the administrative building. He looked at his watch and found that there were still five minutes left before class. Five minutes later, there was a big class for her. Although she had decided to leave West China Academy, she still decided to finish this class before leaving. On the one hand, it was to experience the class here for the final end and to give the students an explanation.
The large staircase classroom of West China College is sitting scattered with more than 200 students. Compared to this classroom that can accommodate 400 people, there are not many students listening to the class. However, when the students in the piano department of West China College are combined, there are only more than 300 people. You can imagine how high the attendance rate of this big class is.
At West China Music Academy, Sudan has a high popularity and prestige among students. After all, so many years of teaching experience and level are there.
The ringtone rang, and Sultan walked into the classroom with the ringtone.
The students below immediately stopped talking and talking the moment she walked into the classroom, and the whole classroom became quiet.
"Hello, students, the main content of our class today is to explore the creative background and artistic achievements of Chopin's "Fantasy Improvisation". "Sultan stood on the podium, paused, and slowly spoke out the content of today's lecture.
When university professors teach big classes, they usually prepare in advance and everything they say has fixed content. However, the lesson that Sudan gave today was obviously a temporary idea.
When he heard Teacher Su talk about this song, Chu Menghan's face in the audience suddenly showed an extremely strange look on his face.
She still remembered the scene yesterday in the hotel. Her former waste cousin actually transformed into a piano master, and even a Huayin master like Teacher Su was defeated by his hands. Such a huge contrast made her unable to react now.
She didn't even remember how she got out of the hotel. After she arrived at school, she called her home and told her mother about what happened today. On the phone, her mother looked surprised and disbelief. She even said that she didn't know such a thing, and she also said that she would read it wrong and regarded others as that waste cousin!
Today, Teacher Sudan is going to teach "Fantasy Improvisation" in class. Did she forget that it was this song that caused her to suffer all the humiliation yesterday?
A faint premonition surged in Chu Menghan's heart.
"Teacher Su is not really~~~ that one." Chu Menghan thought to himself.
"We all know that Chopin has written many works in his life, but there are only four improvisations. The most popular one is this "Fantasy Improvisation". This work is extremely difficult to perform, with profound content and fantasy, so it is called a fantasy Improvisation."
Sudan did not read the lesson plan for preparing lessons, but just stood there and talked casually. From the creation background of this song, to the analysis of the song, to the characteristics of each piece, he was so silly that he had an obvious understanding of this song. Moreover, under her explanation, these things that were originally boring became quite vivid and interesting, and many students were fascinated by it, as if it was the first time that this song had so many stories.
"Okay, let's enjoy this song together." Sudan said, taking out a small USB drive, connecting it to the interface of the classroom computer, and copying the next W"A---V" file from it.
The file is very large, with more than 50 megabytes, which is a lossless format. After copying it to the computer hard drive, Sudan directly pressed the play button. After a moment, a heavy, powerful, and accent with a little sadness echoed through the classroom sound!
"This is the version played by Chu Yang?" Listening to this song "Fantasy Improvisation", Chu Menghan's face suddenly showed a shock! A light and smooth ripples sounded in her ears. The delicate and enthusiastic performance made her hear it all at once. This was Chu Yang's performance yesterday, and there would be no mistake!
How could it be? How could Teacher Su play his performance in class?
Listening to this beautiful melody, Chu Menghan's mind was in chaos.
After listening to the song, more than 200 students all showed an intoxicated look. This song is already very famous, and almost every student in the piano department knows it, and many of them have even played it, but because the song is too difficult, few people can play it to the speed required by the original song.
After Sudan's prior explanation, their understanding of this song became more profound. At this moment, the more they felt that the wonderfulness was truly amazing!
"Teacher, this version of the performance is really great. Is it the version of Li Yundi? But it doesn't seem to be very similar. I have heard his performance online." A student couldn't help but raise his hand and asked. He is a Chopin fan, and he is excited when he talks about Chopin's works.
"This is not Li Yundi's version, but I personally think that this version is better than Li Yundi's version." Sultan said.
The student below nodded repeatedly, and seemed to agree with Sudan's words very much. At the same time, he handed over his USB drive and asked Sudan to copy a copy for him.
Some people took the lead, some followed the trend. At this moment, more than a dozen students wanted to take out the USB flash drive and let the Sultan help them copy it. Seeing the scene a little messy, Sultan immediately asked them to stop and promised them to put the documents in the public mailbox of the piano department, which calmed the storm.
Then, as usual, Sultan performed it himself, and then called a few students who had practiced to come on stage. After correcting their several technical movements, it was only a few minutes left before get out of class was over.
Then, Sudan stood on the podium and announced a shocking news to the students below.
"Dear classmates, today is the last time I stand here to teach you. After today, I will resign from my position here and go to Huayin Pavilion to serve as a piano teacher. Of course, I still welcome everyone to take my class and reveal a little secret to you. The song "Fantasy Improvisation" I played in class just now was played by Chu Yang, the piano teacher of Huayin Pavilion. If you are interested in Chopin's works, you are welcome to go to Huayin Pavilion to study and exchange. Well, today's class will end here and end."
After saying these words, Sultan turned around and left the classroom. Behind her, the classroom was already in a turmoil because of these words!
"Professor Su actually resigned? Go to a private art school to work as a piano teacher?"
"Who is Huayin Pavilion? It's so powerful?"
"Who is Chu Yang? I haven't heard it, but that "Fantasy Improvisation" is so amazing!"
...
The classroom was in chaos. Chu Menghan looked at Teacher Sudan's back as he left, but his face was filled with extreme shock!
Professor Su actually resigned!
She felt that the world was really crazy!
"I'm going to Huayin Pavilion and learn the qin with Chu Yang," Ma Tie, who had been sitting next to her without making a sound, suddenly said firmly.
Chapter completed!
