Chapter six hundred and thirty sixth night game
Xiaobu's competition was apart from Chen Sa! Others had no match for the competition, so they seemed very relaxed. At the same time, several people chose to watch Chen Sa's competition.
Although there are strict regulations on which game the Masters Cup audience watches, whether it is a preliminary or a rematch, there is no such restriction for these contestants. As long as they have the qualification certificate of the contestant, they can watch any game at will, which is also to promote technical exchanges between the contestants.
Chen Sa's group was in the third group. When Lu Wei and his men walked into the concert hall, many audiences were already sitting there waiting for the start of the competition.
Although I had watched the competition for a day, many viewers did not show any fatigue on their faces. This competition, which consisted of world-renowned pianists, was really an artistic feast, which made them very excited.
There are 15 contestants in each group. After a day of competing, the remaining contestants will be held until the evening. There are only three or four contestants left. However, in order to make up for the lack of time in the evening, after the competition, one or two judges will play some music to cheer them up. This is also a theme that the Stanway Masters Cup has come up with. The purpose is to make the content of the competition richer.
Listening to Chen Sa's introduction before, Lu Wei and his friends knew that there were four pianists participating in the competition in this group tonight, namely Browning from the United States, Brundel from Austria, Shunfu Nakamura from Japan and Chen Sa from China.
According to Chen Sa's previous draw, she will be the third one.
Looking at the three judges sitting aside, Lu Wei discovered something very interesting. The three judges in this group were two female judges and a male judge. Blumenthal is from Poland and is good at playing modern music works, which is somewhat similar to Lu Wei's specialties. Blancalde is from Switzerland and is a pianist with a relatively comprehensive quality. He has been involved in a wide range of music. His teaching career has given her a high reputation in the piano education field.
The only male judge was Buchbindel, from the Czech Republic. He was good at playing the works of Schumann and Schubert. He looked younger than the other two female judges.
The game started soon, and the first pound of the game was Browning from the United States. This was a very tall American wearing a decent black dress and a high bulge.
The slightly melancholy blue eyes and a head of unruly curly hair look poetic.
Browning's first song was Chopin's fantasy improvisation, and his playing technique was very proficient. His tone was very warm and he had a very good grasp of the rhythm of Chopin's works. Lu Wei could see that. The three judges were all satisfied with the expressions on their faces.
The next three works are Mozart's monastery, Liszt's etude "Chasing the Snow", and Tchaikovsky's "Ship Song"
Although Browning's performance has no highlights, his victory lies in stability. He grasped all four songs very well, and judging from his steady stage performance, he definitely has rich stage experience.
Soon, Browning's score came out, enough. Although the score was not very high, it was also very good.
The second one to play was Japanese player Shunfu Nakamura. He was wearing a blue suit and his thin face looked a little stylish, but his smooth hair made him look a bit rigid.
However, it seems that Shunfu Nakamura himself has a very good feeling. He sat in front of the piano and first played a Beethoven's sonata "The Beethosa".
"Actually!" After hearing the beginning, Lu Wei gave him a comment in his heart.
Although the expression on Nakamura's face looked so serious, the music under his command was not the same in Lu Wei's ears. Although the strong contrast in strength was also made, how could it make people feel that it was deliberately done, and it was a little less profound.
"It's really irresponsible to play Beethoven like this. This is Lu Wei's second thought. If Shunfu Nakamura played other songs, Lu Wei might not have evaluated the good or bad so quickly, but Beethoven's piano sonata would no longer be. It can be said that if someone played Beethoven's thirty-two piano sonatas in front of Lu Wei at this moment, even if the strength and speed of any bar are slightly wrong, it would definitely not escape Lu Wei's sharp ears. Although Nakamura's performance sounds smoother at the moment, it's okay to fool outsiders and those with average level. Lu Wei's ears are a few levels short of Lu Wei's ears.
However, the impression that Shin-fu Nakamura left on Lu Wei was very average, and his poor performance was expected by Lu Wei.
In the next few songs, Shunfu Nakamura still did not perform well. Except for the prelude of Haydn's play, the others were really unreasonable.
In fact, Shunfu Nakamura played well, but because the halo of the Master Cup was too dazzling, the seemingly good performance seemed so moderate.
Similarly, Toshifu Nakamura got very good points. His grades were ranked in the middle in the second group, and his advantage was the Chinese pianist Chen Sa.
When passing by Chen Sa, a complicated look flashed across Shunfu Nakamura's face.
His score is very subtle now. Among the dozen players in the front, Nakamura's score is now ranked ninth. If the selection ratio in the preliminary round is based on the selection ratio, this position is a very dangerous position, because each group will eventually eliminate six to seven players, and the last nine players are left to enter the rematch.
In other words, if Chen Sa's score is better than him, he will miss the rematch. However, if Chen Sa and the players behind her are all below him, then he will be able to enter the rematch with the last place.
"I don't know how good this Chinese female pianist looks at Chen Sa's background. Shunfu Nakamura thought to himself.
Then, he glanced at the three judges opposite him, and a hint of unrecognizable expression appeared in his eyes.
Shunfu Nakamura is a pianist, but he is not very famous in the world music scene. The reason why he was able to qualify for the competition has to be mentioned in his family.
Nakamura's father is the second largest shareholder of a large Japanese automobile manufacturing company and has strong financial resources. However, Nakamura, who has loved piano since childhood, has not had much interest in learning corporate management. After graduating from high school, he insisted on rejecting the arrangements at home and chose to continue studying piano. In the past few years, he has also won certain honors in the world music scene. His family has gradually changed from not supporting him at the beginning to supporting him. Take this Masters Cup for example. If it weren't for his family's efforts to open up some joints, he might not have fallen to his qualification for the competition.
Of course, Nakamura, who is arrogant and arrogant, always believes that this is obtained by his own strength. He is also full of confidence in this Masters Cup and wants to achieve a better result to enhance his influence in the international music scene again.
However, the net, the net's achievement is really ", under the gaze of Toshifu Nakamura, Chen Sa, dressed in a red dress, was already sitting in front of the piano. As his hands fell on the keys, a melody full of rhythm sounded.
Lister's "Hungarian Rhapsody"!
Chen Sa chose such a passionate song for her first work.
Chen Sa looked very grand. Now he pulled the stand in front of the piano, which immediately attracted the attention of the judges and the audience.
"The power is transparent and the rhythm is very accurate. This female pianist is not simple." Jury Buchbindel held his jaw with his right hand and looked at Chen Sa's performance with concentration. From this young female pianist, he saw a kind of spirituality.
Chen Sa looks a little plump, and the snow-white arms exposed under the red dress are as plump as Western women, but now it looks a bit more atmospheric to her performance. In the second song "Hungarian Rhapsody", there are many places where there are strong chords, and the strength and heaviness of Chen Sa at this moment are no less than the effect made by a male pianist.
Such an atmospheric performance naturally formed a strong contrast when it came to a beautiful pianist with oriental temperament. Many music fans showed unexpected surprises on their faces, but they did not expect that they could see such a wonderful performance in the preliminary round.
Chen Sa chose an etude and a sonata next, which were the works of Cherny and Mozart. Her atmospheric performance left a deep impression on all the music fans and reporters.
When Chen Sa's final results came out, Shunfu Nakamura's face suddenly became ugly.
Although Mu's four-point score was not the highest score in this group, this score had left him far behind, and at the same time, it also shattered his dream of entering the rematch.
In the subsequent game, Nakamura no longer wanted to watch it anymore. With a calm face, Nakamura Shunfu quickly walked out of the concert hall, followed several followers behind him, and saw his bad-looking face. He didn't even dare to vent his breath.
"This damn Cassil, if it weren't for the broken piano he provided me, how could I have achieved such a bad result?" Nakamura cursed, then took out his cell phone and called.
Although I don’t know who Nakamura is calling, I know that he is in a bad mood in this bag.
At this moment, Principal Valsey was chatting with two beautiful girls he had met in a bar, and he could see that he was in a very high mood.
