Rebirth in America

The first piece Alex chose was Tchaikovsky's "Piano Sonata No. 1", which surprised others.

They thought Alex recorded a song he wrote, but they didn't expect that what he recorded was someone else's. It’s no wonder they think this way. Alex feels to them like geniuses like Mozart and Leonardo da Vinci, only much younger.

"Alex, why don't you record your own songs? Can't those songs you wrote also be adapted into piano music?" Jerry was the first to ask the question in his heart. He couldn't hold it back. The person who talks.

Alex smiled, but he didn't explain anything to the others. In fact, he had a reason for doing this. He once saw a record saying that this Tchaikovsky piano piece was the first LP to sell a platinum disc. He wanted to give it a try, and at the same time, he could see how good his piano playing was. If it didn't work, he would use "simulated memory" to simulate the techniques of several later piano masters.

In later generations, Alex listened to a lot of piano music, the more famous ones being "Piano Prince" Richard Clayderman, and "Piano Master" Maxim. The two of them play piano music in different styles, but they are both relatively famous.

For example, Clayderman's piano music is famous for its romance, and is the most popular and widely circulated. Maxim is different. His playing skills are superb and he can do things that others cannot.

The recording of this "Piano Sonata No. 1" didn't take long, it was done in just one afternoon. When playing this piece, he consciously or unconsciously borrowed from Clayderman and Maxim, blending their playing techniques and styles. By recording a record, he felt that his piano playing level had improved a lot.

Alex discovered that after using "simulated memory" too much, he himself would be affected in some ways. For example, if he doesn't know how to chop vegetables and cook, if he uses his ability to simulate it a few times, he will find that he can do things he couldn't do before even if he doesn't use his ability.

This effect did not occur before, but only recently. He probably grew up in his abilities as his body grew. He has rarely used the ability of "mental doll", and only using "retrospection" and "simulated memory" is enough to cope with most situations.

This is the situation when playing the piano now. When he imitates those piano masters, he will also absorb their skills. No wonder some people call this super power "simulated memory", but it is actually a super learning ability. You can learn any skill just by seeing it.

"Alex, play an original piano piece. You have written so many songs, so you must have also written piano pieces!"

Little Richard and the others clamored to hear new music. Alex thought about it and said, "What kind of music do you want to hear?"

"Of course it's a song about love!" someone immediately replied.

"Okay, how about you listen to this song."

Soon, the soft and soothing piano sound rang in people's ears, making them feel as if they were at the riverside, strolling along the riverside with their loved ones. The sycamore trees on the shore have begun to turn yellow, and the leaves are rustling in the autumn wind. There are ripples on the river, like a piece of paper wrinkled by the wind, and the notes are dancing in the wind, like little elves.

They quickly became immersed in the music, and Alex played "Adelina by the Water." The piece was written by Paul Seneville and performed by Richard Clémander, who won the Golden Piano Award.

"Wow! Alex, this piece of music is really beautiful! What's its name?" his brother Richard asked quickly after he finished playing.

"'Adilina by the Water'! What do you think?"

Adelina comes from Greek mythology. Once upon a time, there was a lonely king of Cyprus named Pygmalion. He sculptured a beautiful girl, looked at her crazily every day, and eventually fell in love with the statue of the girl. He prayed to the gods, hoping for a miracle of love.

His sincerity and persistence moved Aphrodite, the goddess of love, and gave life to the sculpture. From then on, the lucky king lived with the beautiful girl and lived a happy life.

Everyone nodded and praised, thinking that this piece of music was not only beautiful, but also had a good artistic conception. A lot of people should like it, and just when they think Alex is going to stop practicing and record a new song, he plays another tune.

This is a song with a very fast melody that sounds like a bumblebee buzzing around. Soon someone caught on, and one of them exclaimed: "Flight of the Bumblebee!"

This piece of music is often used to demonstrate the playing skills of piano, violin and other musical instruments. Others listening to Alex's playing were also frightened by Alex's speed of improvement. In order to test his playing skills, Alex specially played the song "Flight of the Bumblebee" that he remembered from the piano duel in "The Pianist on the Sea". Little Richard and Jerry's faces changed when they heard it. White.

People who don't know much about piano don't know why Alex plays this piece. They think this piece is not as good as the one he played before. But the knowledgeable people were stunned. They never thought that anyone could play such a piece of music, and they all stood up.

This piece of music is all played on the black keys of the piano, which means it's all played in semitones. This piece of music requires extremely high piano skills to play. This piece of music is simply not something that humans can play. Everyone present who knew how to play the piano was dumbfounded.

"Boss! I won't bet anymore. I definitely can't beat you." Jerry reacted and had no choice but to yell.

Little Richard thought for a while and felt that his chances of winning seemed not good, so he shook his head and said he wanted to give up.

Alex didn't expect that playing this piece of music would cause such a big reaction from them. He just saw this scene in a movie. Some people on the Internet said that no one can play such a piece of music. In fact, this is wrong. Some people can play it, but this piece of music requires very high finger speed, so everyone has a different feeling when playing it. It's almost impossible to play like "The Pianist on the Sea" so well that you can light a cigarette.

Alex ignored Jerry and the others and instead shouted, "Bring me the cigarettes!"

Under the incomprehensible eyes of others, Alex crossed the cigarette across the strings and found that there was no way to light the cigarette. He said angrily: "It turns out that was a lie!"

Since both people involved in the bet had withdrawn, his brother Richard also felt that it was not interesting and he did not want to bet with Alex anymore. However, Mark felt that it would be a pity to give up such a good piano music like this. He insisted that Alex record some piano music. He believed that these songs were so beautiful that they would be able to sell many records.

At Mark's insistence, Alex not only recorded "Adelina by the Water", UU Reading www.uukanshu. net also produced Maxim's famous songs "Croatian Rhapsody", "Exodus" and other songs.

In the end, these songs were really popular. People had never thought that Alex would sound so good when he played the piano. Especially when they knew that, except for the first one by Tchaikovsky, the other three pieces were written by Alex. People exclaimed: "Alex's talent in piano music is so great. No weaker than other piano masters!”

The first to sell 1 million copies was "Adelina by the Waterside". This romantic love song was indeed very popular with the public. It took less than a month to reach the level of platinum disc, and soon it reached the level of double platinum.

The next ones that reached the platinum level were "Croatian Rhapsody" and "Exodus". These two piano pieces are also very popular with the public. The most unexpected thing is that "Piano Sonata No. 1", which Alex played casually, actually bought 1 million copies. It just took 3 years to achieve it. It has been selling for more than ten years, and finally sold a total of 2.5 million copies.

Faced with such good piano music, people have asked Alex to record more such pure music.

Especially the so-called critics, every time Alex's rock music is a hit, they always point out these piano songs. They said Alex was wasting his talent and wanted him to stop recording so much pop trash and produce more classical music.

Faced with this statement, Alex always laughed. He thought to himself, who will be able to survive when he is full, and whoever likes to do unprofitable and boring things.
