Chapter 289 Bell, flying bumblebee (5000)(1/2)

 "Boom!——"

Don Yetus's solitary shout caused the accumulated energy to be released.

"bravo!" "bravo!" "bravo!!!"

Thunderous applause roared in, and when Master Schillings stepped down from the podium, shook hands with Fan Ning and took the curtain call, the already extremely loud sound was suddenly raised by another level, almost to the point of overturning it.

Hall roof!

"My title is still... still too cautious and cautious. When the "Tioline Cultural Weekly" was founded, it issued the ambition and declaration of "unreservedly celebrating the truth of art". Now this ambition is gradually drifting away...

"

The editor-in-chief, whose palms were a little numb from the slap, began to wonder whether he had become more conservative in recent years: "...the words 'arrogant' and 'pragmatic' can ensure that my press release does not make mistakes, but it is definitely not the case."

Unreservedly praising the truth of art'! How is this a 'little tribute' or a 'pioneer attempt'? The virtue of self-effacement cannot overshadow the praise of others, and the adjective 'small' can only describe the simplicity of its length and structure.

, but with all the sublime elements, it is a 'small but great tribute' and a 'generous beam of light of inspiration from his Second Symphony to the audience in advance'!!"

"My titles are always of the highest quality." Ferrege, a senior reporter for "Hoffmann's Gramophone" who was greatly shocked at the scene, is now quite proud of his offensive and defensive naming skills, "... if the composer's answer sheet

If it is not satisfactory, then "N2 and G9" embodies significant contrast and sharp criticism. Now that Mr. Fanning has successfully discussed the sublime, with the same title, the readers' interpretation has changed - think we

He has a sharp eye and has every reason to predict that his subsequent "Second Symphony" can be compared with that "Highest Peak"..."

Music critics are always the most rational people, but among the more than 2,000 audience members who gave a standing ovation, the six or seven big names who can dominate 80% of the public opinion in the music critic world were shocked and worried.

A different emotion or thought.

Master Schillings did not take the curtain call first, but stood aside with a smile and clapped together with the artists on the stage and the audience in the audience.

Fan Ning walked to several locations on the stage facing different fans.

He stretched out his arms, pressed his chest, bowed, and cheers came one after another.

“The composer and pianist is a leader in the spiritual world tonight!”

"This is no longer just notes, music and art! This is a noble power that transcends time, space, geographical and cultural boundaries and exists in everyone's heart!"

The more general audience turned the endless excitement and praise in their hearts into even warmer applause and "bravo" sounds.

Wonderful art, divine grace, the marriage of love and power...those radiant melodies and exciting lyric fragments are still echoing in the heart of "The Voice of Janus" special music critic Hansen Lick who came from across the ocean.

.

Obviously, what this New Year's concert brings to the audience is no longer at the level of enjoyment, festival, and celebration.

Its meaning is close to sublimity, truth and the ultimate joy of mankind.

The reason why I use the word "close" is...

"Second heir!" "Second heir of Gilles!"

The "bravo!" sounds from the audience and the names of the conductor and pianist started to be mixed with the shouts of some music fans.

You must know that those who can be qualified to be called "torch bearers" or heirs of great masters may only be lower-level masters. They spontaneously placed the title of Fanning after Schillings, so for the song "Beckham Nine"

"The evaluation attitude is quite obvious!

——There are already very few people in this world who have a "crescent" understanding of Fan Ning's "character".

Of course, this does not mean that Fan Ning has been upgraded to the "Crescent". "Quality" is the sum of the world's recognition and remembrance of an artist, the difference between "a very few people think" and "almost everyone thinks".

Some people are unable to cross over in their lifetime, and some people successfully cross over during their lifetime but are washed away by time after death.

To be precise, this performance further consolidated Fan Ning's level of "forging a lion".

The artists on the stage began to accept flowers, and many audience members walked around from the steps at the back, giving large bouquets to the chorus members in formal dresses.

These boys and girls had just recovered from the nervousness of going on stage. At this moment, they felt that they had never been treated so warmly. They looked shy and incoherent as they thanked the fans.

It’s too lively on stage!

Of course, symphony concerts are always crowded and lively, but never before has there been so many people and so many elements at the same time as tonight's New Year's concert!

——In addition to the more than 80 musicians who can enjoy the treatment of being surrounded by flowers today, there are also pianist Fanning, conductor Schillings, and 6 people including Niemann, Marquise, Capron, Virgil, Lausanne and Elizabeth.

Singers in full costume and 61 members of the affiliated choir.

There were many artists, but even more flowers were presented by music fans. Soon the stage turned into a sea of ​​colors.

Originally, Schillings' halo as a master should be greater than that of Fanning.

But Fan Ning’s piano is so dazzling, telling this great story from the beginning, not only leading out the band, duet and chorus in sequence, but also firmly connecting them together. The wonderful performance can be said to run through the entire work!

This alone is enough to put him on the same level as the master, and if another factor is added: he is a composer...

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Fan Ning, who was bowing for the nth time, was aimed at more than a dozen gift tubes. Amidst the hearty laughter, colorful ribbons were thrown out, and he was covered with flower petals and gold and silver foils flying in the sky.

.

The leader was his piano teacher Sir Viadrin.

Fan Ning ingeniously ordered a batch of gift boxes and placed them in the small slots between the seats in the distinguished guest area in advance. This is not common in serious concerts, but today is a New Year's concert, and everyone just feels

The Mr. Director came up with ideas one after another, and the atmosphere became more enthusiastic. The audience who had not noticed this element before cheered even more excitedly.

"Its 'creation' does not represent my free will at this stage, but its 'performance' is what I expected. I just want to put what is still there on the snowy New Year's Eve of this old industrial world into the future."

Friends gathered together to share the happiness and joy of the festival..."

Another large wave of gift tubes made a "bang bang" sound.

Fan Ning laughed and brushed away the gold and silver foil from his hair, and then saw the young Master Nieman jump off the stage and grab two of them, then spin the launch handle towards his friend Schillings.

He also saw Kaplan's face flushed with joy, and his wife and daughter came on stage to help him carry the ribbons on his body; he saw Lu sitting behind the timpani in the "dead spot", holding two hammers and smiling at the mess in front of him.

On the stage, I saw the Marquess and Marquis of MacAdam and several chief maidens throwing flowers to the audience seats, causing cheers after cheers.

"Thank you. The children sang so well and lived so happily. All of this is really touching." Hamilton was helped up to Fan Ning and held up a small bouquet of magnolia tremblingly.

Fan Ning saw tears glistening in the wrinkled corners of the old lady's eyes, and he quickly bowed deeply after taking it.

"Hope you have a good night."

One person returned to the audience seat, and the other returned to the passage on the side of the stage.

But obviously, this first round of carnival after the dinner was not enough to satisfy everyone's appetite.

At some point, the scattered applause of more than 2,000 audience members became unified.

"Wow!--"

Fan Ning, wearing a tuxedo, returned for the curtain call again and then sat in front of the piano.

"Yeah! -" "Wow! -"

The audience was excited.

"It's a piano encore! Not orchestral music!"

"Great, now I can really listen to the piano solo. What will he play? A Romance by Gilles?"

"No, it's definitely a new work! Don't you know the grand occasion of that night at Santa Ramburg?" The two fans had a brief discussion, and then quickly fell silent together with the hall.

After a few sporadic coughs disappeared, Fan Ning stretched out his right hand and struck a crisp octave D-sharp double tone in the high register of the piano.

"Ding ding ding dong dong dong, ding ding ding dong dong dong, ding dong dong, ding dong dong..."

Then, his right hand started a clean long-distance jump around the G-sharp minor theme melody below and the small bell-like D-sharp fixed tone above, while his left hand accompanied it with extremely economical chord tones.

"Is this the sound of bells? New Year's concert...New Year's bells...this is very appropriate for the occasion!"

As early as Fanning struck the first few octaves, a considerable number of discerning listeners felt his unique musical character.

The first encore is the third piece of Liszt's "Paganini Etude" - "The Bell"!

Soon, the crisp, ethereal, and highly technical musical theme at Fan Ning's fingertips captivated the audience.

After listening to the performance of Paganini's "Second Violin Concerto in B minor" in 1831, Liszt was greatly shocked. Based on the rondo theme of the third movement, he composed "The Bells" in 1834, which is full of rhapsody and improvisation.

"Grand Fantasia", but after writing it, he found that it was too difficult and almost no one could produce the effect except himself. So in 1838, after making a lot of simplifications, he included it in the first edition of "Paganini Grande Etudes" and presented it

To Clara Schumann.

But Liszt really didn't expect that it was still too difficult for pianists to play perfectly, so he had no choice but to simplify it again in 1851, eliminating more virtuosic passages and retaining only the most exciting ones.

part, and added some "funny" cadenza - this third draft, which was downgraded to "the easiest simplified version that can be played and quickly mastered" in his eyes, is the most widely circulated song in Fan Ning's previous life.

"The Bell" is almost one of the first works that most fans think of when Liszt is mentioned.

Of course, a basic common sense is that the gap between people is sometimes unimaginable. The skill gap between Liszt and those pianists of the time may be greater than that between pianists and piano boys. In his eyes, "visible performance and quick mastery"

"The most simplified version" is something that no normal person would believe, such as the audience listening to Fan Ning's performance——

They originally thought that the composer had written a New Year's ballad depicting the sound of bells, but within a minute of listening, they gradually showed stunned expressions.

After the crisp and melodious first theme ended, in measure 22, Fan Ning began to present the second theme by playing alternately with both hands.

The wrong accent mark on the downbeat and the chromatic harmony create a swaying and joking image, and the theme jump of sixteenth notes is mixed with the rapid thirty-second auxiliary sound group, which shows

The high demand for key touch accuracy has begun to frighten many piano learners in the audience, especially ladies with relatively smaller hand spans.
