Chapter 1229 1229. Four-Hand Combo (35)

Sophie glanced at the boy and said, "I'm going to play the piano, but I have to invite this kid to join me. If I bump into something, I'll compensate you, OK?"

The boss pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "No problem."

His eyesight is vicious, in fact, he doesn't let the boy play the piano, it's not because he is worried about how the other party can handle the piano, but because he looks at the other party's clothes, and thinks that his family is poor and he probably doesn't have much money.

This kind of family is not his potential customers. He guesses that the boy has never touched the piano. He just watched others play it or saw it on TV. He was envious and wanted to take this opportunity to touch the piano.

If it was as he guessed, the boy could not become his client, and secondly, he didn't know how to play the piano, so he might play something badly, which would have a counterproductive effect on his work of attracting clients.

Sophie stepped forward, turned her head and smiled at Li Du and the others. The temperament cultivated by the piano for many years was like the spring breeze in winter, which could not be seen, but could be clearly felt.

The boss is a master at this, and an expert will know if there is one as soon as he makes a move. Before Sophie played the piano, he knew that he had made the right choice by inviting her to play the piano.

The boy was a little restrained, and whispered in English: "Are we together?"

Sophie smiled brightly at him, and said, "Yes, Piano-Duet, four-handed playing, you're fine, right?"

The boy glanced at her in surprise, as if Sophie's smile could burn people's eyes like sunshine, he immediately averted his gaze, and whispered: "God, we haven't cooperated before, that's too difficult."

Four-hand playing is a way of playing the piano that can cultivate the interest of piano beginners. As a lover, when sitting in front of the piano, everyone hopes to play beautiful, moving, sincere and infectious pieces.

But to do this, it takes years of hard work and talent, and it is absolutely impossible for beginners to simply use the piano to play a region of Tianyin.

Playing with four hands creates this possibility. In many piano research institutions in Europe and America, it is believed that this playing style was born in the family.

In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, almost all intellectual families cultivated their children's ability to appreciate and play the piano.

Children are too young and their learning ability is not strong enough. The full keyboard of the piano is too big for them, and it is too difficult to control.

So some parents have developed this way of playing. For example, the earliest professional score for four-handed playing was written by the famous master J-Haydn, and the name is "Teacher and Student". There is a saying about this score, it The title was originally "Father and Son"!

Speaking of four-hand playing, it is a bit advanced to drive the backward, but this is cooperation after all, and cooperation requires tacit understanding, especially if it is not playing the special score for continuous playing, it requires extreme tacit understanding.

The boy sat in front of the piano in silence, and Sophie sat next to him. The moment she sat down, the boy's body trembled, and then his expression became focused.

Sophie watched him stretch out his hand and said, "My name is Sophie Martin. How about you, my partner?"

"Cao Yulin, hello, Ms. Martin." The boy stretched out his hand a little shyly.

After letting go of her hand, Sophie smiled and asked again: "Sonata in A major, op.18-5, the second movement, how about it?"

This is a relatively simple four-handed piano piece. If you have been exposed to this kind of performance, you will basically be able to play this.

"good."

There are many piano scores in the IPAD that Sophie carries, she finds one and opens it, puts it on the music stand of the piano, and smiles at the boy again.

Then, she tapped down with both hands, playing the role of leading the lead. As her slender fingers danced gently on the piano, the piano made an elegant sound.

Cao Yulin took a deep breath, glanced at the music score and took it up.

When he stretched out his hand, the boss was slightly surprised. He saw that the teenager's fingers were slender than expected, and all the nail beds were deformed, and the nails were cut very deep.

This is a common hand shape of piano masters. If you touch the keys for a long time, the skin on your hands will be pulled repeatedly and there will be some fine lines, but this is not the main problem. The main problem is the nails. If the nails cannot be cut as much as possible until Wrapped in meat, if you hit the keys too many times, it may bleed and crack.

The hands of piano masters are not good-looking, and some of them are full of calluses because of hard training. Some don't have calluses, but they think the calluses will affect the feel, so they rub them off.

In short, just like the more excellent ballet dancers have more deformed feet, the hands of excellent pianists will not be amazingly beautiful.

Sophie's hands are well maintained. One is because her family was in good condition when she was a child, and her parents paid attention to protecting her. The other is that she later studied surgery and learned professional hand care.

The cooperation between the two was a little rusty at first, and the tunes they played were not very pleasant. Of course, this tune is somewhat niche, and it is not pleasant to ordinary people.

Appreciation of many piano pieces requires professional accomplishment.

Soon, the piano music became smoother, and Sophie smiled and turned to look at Huang Yulin, who kept her head down, staring at her hands intently.

The scene of a beautiful foreign girl playing the piano attracted many people. At this time, the official fireworks show had not yet started, so the edge of the square was not very noisy. People quieted down and could still hear the sound of the piano.

After the song was played, Sophie looked at Cao Yulin with great interest, and said, "What's the next song? You choose?"

Before Cao Yulin could speak, a girl below shouted, "Canon, play Canon."

Sophie looked at Cao Yulin, Cao Yulin nodded and said, "That's Canon, Canon in D major."

Canon is actually not the name of a piano piece, but a general term for a kind of polyphonic music, meaning 'melody'. But since Johann Pachelbel wrote the four-part Canon, the name has had exclusive rights.

This piece of music was not originally composed for four hands, so it seems that the change of tune is simple, but it is actually more difficult for two people to play together.

Cao Yulin pressed down the keys, and the lead tune began to play.

Sophie smiled and looked at Li Du while playing. It was the first time she played the piano for Li Du.

Li Du vaguely remembered that it was last summer, and a year and a half had passed in a blink of an eye, how time flies.

The song Canon is well-known in China, and it also conforms to the public's aesthetic view of piano music, so when it was played, more and more people were attracted, and the bunk was surrounded by a huge crowd.

Just when the song reached the end, there were several sharp sounds of "咻咻", and brilliant colorful flowers bloomed in the dark night sky, and the fireworks show officially started!

Li Du took a deep breath, looked up at the fireworks that almost illuminated half of the night sky, and listened to the piano music, feeling like he was going to get drunk.

This Lantern Festival is the most unique Lantern Festival he has ever spent.
