Golden Greenery

Zhuo Yang didn't care about the audience gathered by the big guys, and walked to the side curtain amidst their surprise and dissatisfaction.

He came to Kou Kou and slowly knelt down on one knee. "Koko, Zhuoyang will never let you down in this life." He buried his head in her arms, gently hugged her soft waist, and murmured: "Koko, thank you, thank you."

Koko stroked Zhuoyang's hair lovingly and responded to him softly: "Koko will always be brother Zhuoyang's, forever."

After a moment of tenderness, Zhuo Yang picked up a sheet of music from the coffee table and said to her, "I want to sing for you."

Returning to the stage with the sheet music in hand, Zhuo Yang once again apologized to the audience who were already whispering among themselves. "I'm sorry to keep you waiting for so long. This is a new piece of music I composed on my way to Warsaw. I named it "Unparalleled in the World"."

Putting the music score on the music stand, Zhuo Yang began to play the song "Unparalleled in the World". This was an unplanned improvisation, and it was not a work by Chopin. Everyone listened in confusion.

Soon, everyone was infected by the praise and admiration revealed in the music. The music style was no longer just the strong Chopin romantic style Zhuo Yang had before, but added a touch of the palace in Bach's music to the romance. It has a gorgeous atmosphere and a strong passion of Johann Strauss.

"Unparalleled in the World" combines multiple styles into one, but is not cluttered at all. Gorgeousness, passion, and romance are perfectly blended and integrated into one, completely venting the emotions of praise, praise, worship, and gratitude that you want to express.

Zhuo Yang was immersed in the playing, and everyone in the audience was deeply shocked by the new style vaguely born in the movement. It is incredible that such a young Zhuo Yang started to touch and break through in the creation.

Creating on the way to Warsaw? Everyone in the audience knows that he came in a hurry yesterday because of the "heavy snowfall". So the song "Unparalleled in the World" can only be completed in two or three days, or even shorter. But such a short time was not enough to complete the work, but Zhuoyang picked it up and started playing. This is no longer daring, but a confident expression of talent.

Mark West was also baffled by what Zhuo Yang had done. After watching Sun Yumei leave, he quietly walked to the side of the court door to see what was going on with Zhuo Yang. Unexpectedly, at one glance, his scalp was numb with shock. The so-called music score in front of Zhuo Yang was simply a blank piece of paper.

On the flight from Zurich to Warsaw yesterday, Kou Kou fell asleep leaning on Zhuo Yang's shoulder. During the two-hour flight, Zhuo Yang's eyes never left her for a moment. He looked at Kou Kou's beautiful face with love, thanked her for her unparalleled affection, praised her for her unparalleledness, and was obsessed with her for her unparalleled beauty.

At that moment, the song "Unparalleled in the World" played in Zhuo Yang's mind.

Time was running out, and Zhuo Yang didn't have time to carefully craft "The World is Unparalleled" into a song, but at this moment, he couldn't wait to play this hymn to Kou Kou in front of him. Music is born from feelings, and it should be what you feel. There is no need to elaborate on it step by step, and there is no need to forcefully refine it. The most perfect thing is to not deliberately demand perfection, and that is the real perfection.

The six-minute-long "Unparalleled in the World" was completed in one breath. When the long arpeggio in the left hand ended the most passionate statement of the song, suddenly, the audience burst into thunderous applause, and everyone stood up and applauded for a long time.

Zhuo Yang played a song "Unparalleled in the World" for Kou Kou, and the classical music bosses at the scene thought he was praising Chopin.

"Zhuoyang New Year Concert Chopin Forever" ended successfully with the magnificent music of "Concerto II.11\

,"A total of fourteen and a half pieces of music are flawless, including the "Sonata in B flat minor" which was only played for half of the piece. Zhuo Yang's astonishing performance of "Unparalleled in the World" provided the perfect footnote for his previous willful interruption of playing. At this time, everyone no longer thought that he disrespected Chopin, but restrained it because of their heartfelt worship and admiration. Constantly singing the praises of desire.

Taking advantage of the opportunity of hosting the Golden Chopin Competition last year, many activities were held in Warsaw to commemorate Chopin. Everyone recited all of Chopin's poems to praise him, but today Zhuo Yang was inspired to use his creations to commemorate this music giant. , but it is also the first in a series of commemorative activities.

What's more, this song "Unparalleled in the World" is of such a high standard that all the authorities present in the industry praised it for its beauty, enthusiasm, elegance and magnificence. The rich and hot emotions in the music were deeply touching, and the eclectic style of music was majestic and uninhibited. Everyone was deeply shocked. Zhuo Yang's exploration and experimentation of new styles shocked everyone present.

The big guys praised one after another. Bita Belinska, a beautiful piano upstart who was once known as "Zhuoyang's lifelong rival", expressed her heartfelt gratitude to him in person. Speaking of which, this was the first time that Zhuoyang and her officially After so many years of contact and competition, the two of them had never even spoken to each other before. The young Austrian pianist Gustav Zweig, who came second in the "Golden Chopin Competition" last October, also expressed his sincere admiration to Zhuo Yang.

The withdrawal of Bita Belinska and Zhuo Yang did not affect the quality of the "Golden Chopin Competition". On the contrary, compared with the regular competition held every five years in ordinary years, the overall level of the contestants was slightly higher. The significant golden competition attracts young masters from all over the world.

However, perhaps it is because Zhuoyang and Belinska have whetted the appetite of the industry and raised the upper limit of people's expectations. Therefore, despite their excellence and prosperity, the judges always feel that there are some flaws.

After the preliminaries, semi-finals, and promotion rounds, the six finalists stood out. However, after a wonderful competition, the regretful judges finally decided that the first place gold medal would be vacant. The Chopin Competition has a unique tradition. If it is felt that all contestants are not up to that level, the championship will be vacant instead of being filled in turn. Sometimes there is a first place, but not a second place, and the same reason applies.

If we look at it from a horizontal comparison, Gustav Zweig, the second-placed player in this golden competition, could have taken the top spot in previous years. He is already a leader of the younger generation in Austria who has become famous in recent years. This man graduated a few years ago from the Salzburg Conservatoire, where Carl Norman was the director.

Unfortunately, Gustav Zweig ‘conceded’ to second place.

After the performance, Mr. Anthony Witte, artistic director and chief conductor of the Polish National Philharmonic Orchestra (Warsaw Philharmonic), general director of the Warsaw Music Association, and internationally renowned conductor, called an emergency meeting. The participants were all directors of the Warsaw Music Association, as well as last year’s All judges of the "Golden Chopin International Piano Competition".

On January 2, 2009, the Warsaw Music Association announced that it would award the vacant first-place gold medal in last year's "Golden Competition" to Zhuo Yang, and also award Zhuo Yang the Chopin Medal.
