Chapter 891 Musical Genius
Soon, several big men carried a piano to the stage and brought in a chair at the same time.
Xiao Bing sat down on the chair. The two hosts took a deep look at Xiao Bing. One of the female hosts asked in a low voice: "You really don't want to change the track? It's still too late!"
Xiao Bing smiled slightly, and the two of them shook their heads, looking quite regretful, and at the same time a bit disdainful of Xiao Bing. They walked to the bottom of the stage without saying a word. The two of them did not believe that Xiao Bing could It is impossible to even play half of the difficulty of playing such a difficult piece.
Not to mention Xiao Bing, even they could barely play half of it, and couldn't play the rest, because the rhythm of this piano piece was too difficult to grasp, and there were too many changes in the entire piano piece, which was difficult for ordinary people to control.
Not only these two people, but everyone present who knew piano was waiting to see Xiao Bing's joke. Even several music teachers' comments were heard by many people, and they were passed on to ten people. Damn it, a lot of people are saying it. Those music teachers said that Maggie’s brother was overestimating his ability. Even professional music teachers couldn’t play this piano piece.
At the scene, some people began to look forward to Xiao Bing, and some were ready to watch the excitement. However, there were still more people who didn't trust Xiao Bing than those who believed that Xiao Bing could play well.
Maggie's good friend Qiqi asked in a low voice: "Can your brother play the piano?"
"Maybe." Maggie's tone was not very sure, "I think there are very few things in this world that he doesn't know how to do, although I have never seen him play the piano."
Qiqi's mother sighed and said: "I heard the whole venue talking about it, saying that the music teachers don't think highly of your brother, saying that this piano piece is too difficult to play, and even those with professional standards may not be able to do it. Your brother I must want to bring glory to you, so I chose one with such a high difficulty level."
Maggie also thought so in her heart. On the one hand, she was greatly benefited. Brother Bing didn't want to go back before, but when he stood on the stage, he still focused on helping me to show off. On the other hand, Maggie was a little worried. Everyone in the venue was talking and waiting to see the excitement. Even professional music teachers said it was too difficult. Can Brother Bing do it?
Teacher Li Hongmin stood up at this time. She was sitting in the front row of the class, and Maggie was sitting in the third row. She came over and asked in a low voice: "Maggie, how are your brother's piano skills? She is yours." Parents, speaking of which, they also represent our class. A total of three parents are invited to perform on stage in this session, which is equivalent to a one-thousandth chance that your brother will be able to perform on stage. If the performance is good, it will naturally bring glory to our class... .”
Li Hongmin didn't finish her words. If the performance was ruined, then the class taught by Li Hongmin would also be embarrassed.
"I think my brother is fine!" Maggie said categorically. No matter what, she will stand on Xiao Bing's side now. After all, Xiao Bing came on stage for her, and now he has to suffer the thousands of people in the audience. She was ridiculed and doubted by teachers, students, and parents. She wanted to stand firmly by Xiao Bing's side. Even if the performance failed, she wanted to let Xiao Bing know that she was standing with him. No matter what, she would do it. I am willing to bear it with him!
After seeing so many people not believing in Xiao Bing, laughing at Xiao Bing, and doubting Xiao Bing, Maggie's heart was suddenly filled with anger, and she felt angry for Xiao Bing.
Xiao Bing could also hear the noisy questioning below, but he didn't seem to mind it. He just sat there indifferently, placed his hands on the piano keys, and then heard two notes playing. , with these two notes, the whole place fell silent instantly.
An expert will know if there is one as soon as he takes action.
Xiao Bing's rhythm at the beginning was like a lively Allegro, which immediately attracted everyone's attention, followed by the first variation of the Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini. The first variation is relatively simple. The Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini is not only a piano piece, but also includes violins, flutes and other instruments. It is simply impossible to play a perfect Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini with just the piano. In fact, even if Even if you have a band, it’s very difficult to do it, unless it’s the world’s best band.
There are a total of twenty-four variations in the Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini. When Xiao Bing played the third variation, the rhythm became more lively for an instant. The rhythm changed. It sounded like there was not much change, but The skills that need to be mastered can only be mastered by truly top piano masters. The music teachers immediately became focused. Judging from the first four variations, Xiao Bing does have a very good piano level, at least not weaker than These music teachers.
The fifth and sixth variations are relatively simple. The speed of the seventh variation begins to slow down to medium, like a medium allegro. The most important thing is that the connection of each variation is extremely difficult. This school’s Music teachers have studied the Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini. Among them, the music teacher with the highest piano attainment can only enter the tenth variation at most. After that, it is basically more difficult to play smoothly. That piano teacher had participated in the provincial piano competition and won second place. He was also ranked in the top 30 in the country. His piano attainments were evident.
Xiao Bing quickly and smoothly played the eighth variation, the ninth variation... When it was about to play the tenth variation, all the music teachers opened their eyes, waiting to see what Xiao Bing could do. The ninth variation cannot be transitioned smoothly.
Each variation in the Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini has subtle changes, and each variation has its own difficulty, but the most difficult ones are the transition from the third variation to the fourth variation, and the transition from the sixth variation to The transition from the seventh variation to the tenth variation. From then on, almost every variation has a big change, and the difficulty increases accordingly. In other words, although this piano music has never changed from It's very difficult at the beginning, but it really starts from the ninth time when it reaches a level that even professional pianists find difficult to master.
At the beginning of the ninth change, the piano music entered a new realm, sometimes elegant, sometimes brisk, sometimes lively and humorous, sometimes free and unrestrained, until it finally reached a gorgeous peak, making people immersed in it from beginning to end, as if immersed in a world. It's like a sea of joy, a free and unrestrained paradise.
During the first nine changes, everyone just felt happier and more relaxed, as if their hearts were led to relax. However, until the tenth change, everything finally changed completely, and things began to appear in front of everyone's eyes. In the picture, he seemed to be in a happy kingdom, and people began to appear one after another around him. These people were singing and dancing, and he also danced in the same way.
The eleventh change is a change, the twelve changes are a change….
The further back, the more immersed everyone became, and even some people's bodies could not help but sway slightly.
As time went on, the music teachers became more and more shocked. Gradually, they no longer cared about the shock, and were completely immersed in this relaxed and unrestrained piano music.
When the piano music finally ended with a free, cheerful and gorgeous rhythm, the entire venue was still silent. It was not until Xiao Bing stood up and bowed deeply to those below that everyone broke away from the scene one after another. Then one by one stood up and applauded. Whether they were teachers, students or parents, they all stood up, as if they could not express the excitement in their hearts otherwise.
Xiao Bing smiled slightly and slowly walked down the stage. Suddenly, a female music teacher in her thirties ran to the stage, holding a microphone and shouted at Xiao Bing's back: "Sir, you What is your name?"
Xiao Bing didn't stop, but he responded with a loud smile: "I am Maggie's brother."
Seeing that Xiao Bing did not answer directly, the person continued to ask: "Even some of the top pianists in the country cannot play this piano music to the 24th variation. How did you do it? Are you Is he a piano master in China?"
Xiao Bing smiled and said, "It's just a hobby."
hobby? Damn it, are you lying?
This is just a hobby for you. Who do we teachers who specialize in teaching music count? Are we just half-baked?
We don't do this. Just now we were laughing and despising you, thinking that you would definitely not be able to play this difficult piano piece. Now it's okay to slap you in the face because of your strength. How can you underestimate others like that?
Of course, Xiao Bing did not ignore them, and what he said was indeed true. For Xiao Bing, piano is really just a hobby, and martial arts is Xiao Bing's forte.
After all, Xiao Bing cannot be said to be the best in the world in terms of piano, he can only be said to be world-class. However, in terms of martial arts, although Xiao Bing is not the best in the world, he is also the world's top super master. There are indeed many among them. Big difference, but saying this really makes people want to vomit blood.
The man said unwillingly: "You haven't answered me yet. How can you play this rhapsody?"
Xiao Bing was silent for a moment, and then said with a faint smile: "Since Rachmaninov created this rhapsody, it is natural that people can play it. There is no piano music in the world that people cannot play. A nothing."
The man was stunned for a moment. The words didn't seem to answer him, but they made him and other music teachers realize. Yes, if one person composes a piano piece, it will naturally be played by other people who like piano. There is no piano music in the world that cannot be played, it’s just that the level is not good enough, but they are too proud, or they are like frogs in the well, they feel that if they can’t play it well, neither can others. But Xiao Bing used facts to make them understand the truth: don't underestimate anyone if you can't do it yourself.
The audience burst into warm and crazy applause again!
